Portland Police Bureau reported that ‘protesters’ pulled down a fence around the courthouse. Federal officers attempted to put the fence back and then went inside.
Dozens of people with shields, helmets, gas masks, umbrellas, bats, and hockey sticks approached the doors of the courthouse. Federal law enforcement came out of the courthouse at about 11:50 p.m. and dispersed the crowd.
At 1:31 a.m. a person climbed onto the northwest corner of the Justice Center to tamper with a security camera. At 1:34 a.m. people lit a fire within the portico in front of the federal courthouse. Others gathered around the fire adding wood and other debris to make it larger.
At 1:42 a.m. federal law enforcement came out of the courthouse, dispersed the crowd and extinguished the fire.
Portland Police were not present during any of the activity described. Portland Police did not engage with any crowds and did not deploy any CS gas.
After all this, the Portland Police did nothing, and they posted this knowing it’s ridiculous. Far-left Mayor Wheeler, who is also the police commissioner, ordered them to do nothing and not assist federal officers protecting the courthouse.

Sad !!!
The court case against Federal agencies was Denied. I didn’t read their Petition but the response by the Judge was a very nicely put, Smack Down. If he was crude he could have said, “Are you really a lawyer”. The very last part was such a casual rebuke to idiocy.
“…the state pointed to the fact that Defendants have defended against this lawsuit. Tr. at 39-40. Not only is defending a lawsuit not evidence of constitutionally unlawful behavior, it is not sufficient to support the showing the state is required to make under Lyons.”
Another aspect the city brought up was protection of the press. Evidently, according to those on the ground, they get their press passes From the internet and made to order.
I have an idea. How about we just send MRAP’s and APC’s with a full Airborne division and see if those “Moms” and “Protestors” are in for the fight. They can see what “Real” Call of Duty is all about.
Maybe game developers should do more for realism than just graphics. These LARPERS think they are in real-life Call of Duty but have no idea. I laugh and laugh when someone says, “MEDIC”. These young punks aren’t even capable of basic first-aid. One of these medics opens up their bag and all it has is a dime-store first-aid kit. Some guy is crying out in pain (What! from a pepper ball). The medic takes out some cuticle scissors in an attempt to cut his jeans. Pretty soon the person gives up, puts the first-aid kit back in the bag and walks away. The best one was a person unconscious and the “medic” didn’t even know how to check vitals. After a couple minutes they too walked away. The REAL danger is someone getting seriously injured and “Expecting” these medics to take care of them. Do they have Any idea the “danger” they are in by “impersonating” a medical professional. They “can” be held liable.
And Bobby Rush as the gall to say the Federal agents are the KKK, Good Lord!
