Feds Tear Gas Portland Mayor

[PostmodernProphet]

that's the funniest thing I have seen all week......

the only thing funnier would be if the protesters had beaten him up first......

those protesters looked quelled......

 

[katzgar]

Define "racist".

look in a mirror

Fix the brutal police departments and they will not have to demonstrate. The cities will heal when that happens. Just going back to where we were is merely delaying it. We have to fix our problems. The police are one of them.

wasn't the mayor who was "protesting" along side of them the guy how was in charge of that "brutal" police department in the first place?......

I don't know if they did any damage, but, it appears the rioters made progress last night in their efforts to burn down the courthouse.

Another point is that Federal Officers are already operating in major cities including FBI, ATF, and ICE. Trump is simply sending additional assistance.

Tear gas then water cannons. Works every time. We need more water cannons.

You've outed yourself as a full fledged idiot...years ago.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The mayor of Portland, Oregon, was tear gassed by the U.S. government late Wednesday as he stood at a fence guarding a federal courthouse during another night of protest against the presence of federal agents sent by President Donald Trump to quell unrest in the city.

Mayor Ted Wheeler, a Democrat, said it was the first time he’d been tear gassed and appeared slightly dazed and coughed as he put on a pair of goggles someone handed him and drank water. He didn’t leave his spot at the front, however, and continued to take gas. Around Wheeler, the protest raged, with demonstrators lighting a large fire in the space between the fence and the Mark O. Hatfield Federal Courthouse and the pop-pop-pop of federal agents deploying tear gas and stun grenades into the crowd.

The idiot went into the riot zone to try to make a speech in support of the mob. He was shouted down by the rioters. Standing too close to the federal building when tear gas had to be deployed yet again by the federal agents protecting their property from those attempting to break in and destroy the fence put up around the property, a cloud of it drifted across the mayor.

This is the moron that was elected to the mayor's office. It's time to consider, citizens of Portland, just what you are voting for. The governor or Oregon is not quite as stupid (yet), but does support this violent mob. It's time to consider, citizens of Oregon, just what you are voting for.

Game over. DUH!!

Not necessarily. Plurality is being used here. If a mob shoots at armed citizens, armed citizens are going to be shooting back.

U.S. Attorney for New Mexico John Anderson said the goal of the operation is to reduce gun violence in Albuquerque.

“Any effort to compare Operation Legend to what’s going on in Portland is baseless and misguided,” he said. “There is no connection between those two. The federal law enforcement resources that are being deployed are directed at reducing gun violence; they are not directed at arresting or controlling protesters; they are not being directed at restricting anyone’s right to protest. … They are not being directed at immigration enforcement, and they are not being directed at protecting statues. It’s limited to the exclusive goal of eliminating the scourge of gun violence.”

Does the NRA know that Trump is against gun ownership?!

Did you know that Trump is not against gun ownership?

“Given President Trump and Attorney General Barr’s track record of using Department of Justice resources to carry out the president’s political whims, we cannot stand down on these threats until we have confirmation, in writing, differentiating what is planned for New Mexico from the illegal and unconstitutional actions by federal agents in Portland,” Representative Heinrich said in a statement.

Protecting their own property is not illegal.
Protecting their own property is not against the constitution of the State of Oregon, or of the United States.
The federal government is bound to uphold law and to put down insurrections.

This can get very nasty, just look at what happened in France during WWII with the French underground, you turkey.

What? A few raids and intelligence gathering for the Allies?

The NRA's real goal is to create markets for gun sellers and gun manufacturer, so gun violence is very good for the gun business.

You don't get to speak for the NRA or any of its members. You only get to speak for you.

Wonderful news!

I thought so! Seems the mayor of Portland is truly more of a moron than he already showed himself to be.

He does down to the riot zone, tries to make a speech in support of the mob, gets shouted down by that same mob which is trying to destroy the fence surrounding federal property, and when the tear gas is deployed by federal agents in defense of their property, a cloud of it drifts across the mayor.
