National DNC Behind Portland Mayor's 360° Turn on Protesters? "You're helping Trump get re-elected..."

[Levant]

Plus the fact that Portland is dying as more wealthy people begin to leave

california / los angeles is now shutting off your water and power if you don't comply with lockdown rules.

how fucking stupid can "leadership" be?

What do they expect that to do? Are they seriously contemplating killing people for not following the lockdown? 3 days without water and you're dead. Next will be the buses, as in NYC, to the camps.

 

[mudwhistle]

Change only happens when those protesting show that they can win. It's unfortunate that those in power allowed things to deteriorate as far as it has but that's what happens when you kill citizens and then lie and try and hide the truth while ignoring the pleas of those left behind.

That's not what's happening.
The left needed a trigger to start chaos in time for the November election.
Clearly this isn't about George Floyd.

This started years ago.

This started 65 days ago, dipshit.

Lol. You haven't been paying attention and your ignorance is covered over with name calling. It helps one to understand Trump.

The riots have nothing to do with Trump.
They're just a tool to get fools like you to cry Uncle and settle for Socialism /Communism.

Randomly picking citizens off the street is an example of what the Communists do.

Gassing peaceful protesters for a photo op is what the Communists do.

Gassing?

Who's being gassed?
Look, shit for brains, they do those kinds of things once they're in complete control. A little pepper spray isn't the same as gassing. It's simply an irritant. It isn't poison gas.

It doesn't have to be poison gas. It was for a photo op. That's the stuff Communists do.

Communists execute people.
They put bullets in their heads and bury them in mass Graves.

 

[Eric Arthur Blair]

A wise leader would not consider American citizens an enemy.

Do you see the KKK and Nazis as your fellow citizens and allies?
If you weren't such a ridiculous liar you'd see your posts for the jokes they are.

 

[CarlinAnnArbor]

Wheeler finally found the 'nads to speak out against the homicidal crazies in his city but he is responsible
for them to a large degree. Nice irony, Ted.

He ONLY spoke up because of this. No other reason:

"Don’t think for a moment that you are if you are participating in this activity, you are not being a prop for the reelection campaign of Donald Trump — because you absolutely are," he said. "You are creating the B-roll film that will be used in ads nationally to help Donald Trump during this campaign. If you don’t want to be part of that, then don’t show up.”

 

[miketx]

Wheeler should be arrested, tried, and hanged.

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler Thursday evening condemned the actions of rioters who attempted to set fire to a police precinct and blocked the exits while officers were inside.

“When you commit arson with an accelerant in an attempt to burn down a building that is occupied by people who you have intentionally trapped inside, you are not demonstrating, you are attempting to commit murder," Wheeler said in a news conference with Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell.

"Don’t think for a moment that you are if you are participating in this activity, you are not being a prop for the reelection campaign of Donald Trump — because you absolutely are," he said. "You are creating the B-roll film that will be used in ads nationally to help Donald Trump during this campaign. If you don’t want to be part of that, then don’t show up.”

A riot was declared Wednesday evening when agitators descended upon the Portland Police Bureau’s East Precinct building, spray-painted over security cameras, broke a glass door with a 2x4, lit a fire using an accelerant and threw fireworks and other objects at officers, according to FOX 12 in Portland.

Police said that a truck also attempted to run over officers.

The front doors of the precinct were barricaded before the fire was started with more than 20 officers and civilian employees inside, police said, according to FOX 12.

Officers used tear gas to disperse the rioters and at least eight people were arrested. A federal court order bars police from using tear gas unless a riot is declared.

“I believe that city staff could have died last night,” Wheeler said. “I cannot and I will not tolerate that. This is not peaceful protests. This is not advocacy to advance reforms.”

Rioters also vandalized and broke into Portland’s Police Association Tuesday night.
.
.
The clashes between thousands of protesters and federal agents sent by the Trump administration to guard the federal courthouse stopped after an agreement between Democratic Gov. Kate Brown and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that called for the agents to begin drawing down their presence in Portland’s downtown on July 30.

Then some instigators moved on to other police buildings across the city to cause problems.

Wednesday night’s violence in a residential neighborhood on the east side of the city began after a group of about 100 people gathered in a nearby park for a rally advertised on social media by the group Pacific Northwest Youth Liberation Front with the slogan “No cops. No prisons. Total abolition." The group then marched to the precinct.

Portland mayor condemns rioters for 'attempting to commit murder'

Portland, Ore. Mayor Ted Wheeler Thursday evening harshly condemned the actions of rioters who attempted to set fire to a police precinct and blocked the exits while officers were inside.

This is crazy shit going on here. First of all, it never should have been allowed to get this far for this long. Second responsible leadership on the part of the mayor, governor, and city council ought to be finally constructing plans to restore law and order. And then do it. Enough of this crap where you get arrested and are back on the street the next day. No cops, no prisons, total abolition. That ain't BLM. That's anarchy. And it's long past time to put an end to it.

PS: last I checked CNN doesn't have this story on their website front page. Why not?

When even a bedwetting liberal like the mayor of portland see the rioters for the thugs they are its game over for the anarchists

they arent anarchists,,they are revolutionary communist,,,

Dictatorships NEED anarchists to gain power. There is no such thing and never will be, a working anarchists state. Anyone who advocates such nonsense is a fool and doesnt understand human nature. Anarchy will ALWAYS pave the way for totalitarianism

 

[Correll]

The Mayor of Portland asked him not to. The Mayor of Portland said that State police would end the riots. How is that working out?

An actual wise leader would convince him otherwise.

A wise leader would sit back and watch the Mayor and the City implode. A wise leader would not give the enemy an opportunity to voice their complaints publicly.

A wise leader would not consider American citizens an enemy.

he would if they were in open insurrection and though of themselves as his enemy.

[Canon Shooter]

Ted Wheeler has proven to be the single worst politician in this country.

His city has been turned into an absolute war zone, and he's allowed it to happen, even to the point of joining the protesters.

He should be recalled, charged, tried, found guilty and executed for his role in this never-ending reign of terror against good, decent Americans...

I think you should be a little more harsh !

Oh, I certainly could be.

I would be okay with some unknown gunman taking him down from 1/4 mile away. He has shown himself to be an enemy of the American people, engaging in acts against good Americans. He'd deserve nothing less...

He should have thought of that before he told his police to stand down then stood by while the rioters looted and burned businesses. Mans a moron.

Plato disagrees. So do I

Plato rejected Athenian democracy on the basis that such democracies were anarchic societies without internal unity, that they followed citizens' impulses rather than pursuing the common good, that democracies are unable to allow a sufficient number of their citizens to have their voices heard, and that such

Democracies always become anarchists, and anarchy will always lead to totalitarianism, because these is no agreed upon right and wrong. No society can exist in a state of anarchy.

I've said this many times; in the absence of government, the vacuum will be filled by the biggest, meanest, quickest on the trigger, guy(s) around. Then, gipper and his neighbor will realize they need to partner to defend against Mr. Big. Then they'll make an agreement on who takes which watch.. And then they have government. Anyone who claims to be an anarchist is either a liar, or very, very, literally, stupid, or both.
