That's the astonishing picture we have here where a suspect, Domingo Lopez, Jr., 45, who had been arrested just 12 hours earlier for setting fires, got somehow let out and proceeded to commit to more arson, with the Antifa weapon of choice, the Molotov cocktail, as if that couldn't be foreseen. The second time around, he set six fires.

The big fail here was from the justice system, which let the known firebug, freshly caught in the act, out and about. Obviously, there's something going on with this. How could anyone in authority be this stupid?

According to the Washington Examiner:

The man was released, but police said he then started six more small brush fires early Monday morning along the freeway. "Portland Fire and Rescue extinguished three of them while passing community members put out the other three. All were caught early. No one was injured and no structures were burnt. Officers located Domingo Lopez, Junior walking along the shoulder and arrested him. They seized a lighter as evidence," police said in a statement

There's some kind of disordered logic going on here, whether of the prosecutor or the Portland cops, or the political establishment leading them, the Ted Wheeler crowd. You don't ever let a live arsonist firebug out after he's been caught once in the act, at a time of high, disastrous fires taking out whole towns and creating "mass casualty events," as has been the story in Oregon. The state currently has a million acres on fire, as many as 20 dead, and 40,000 evacuated.

Was it because he had a lot of earmarks of Antifa (in his use of Molotov cocktails) that he got let out same as your average Portland rioter/looter? Was it because Oregon is pretty much shutting down its law enforcement mechanisms, based on the rabid hundred-day siege of protests in Portland? (Look at how bush-league the Portland police website is, for one — a sure sign of underfunding right there.) Is it because of some bad new laws regarding bail on the books? At this early stage, I don't know. But something out there is trying to protect Antifa and the orbit of criminals around them with this lunatic act of letting an arsonist out and getting surprised he started more fires.
.
.
Here's the other disturbing detail: he's not the only one. A creep was arrested for arson in Lane County, and three other firebugs were arrested in Washington and California, suggesting quite possibly some sort of plan. Antifa, remember, said that if it doesn't get what it wants, "cities will burn."

And here's the evidence that the problem is real, because the Oregon residents (not the dolts in Portland who vote blue and hold all the political power) are terrified. CNN reports that some of them have started stopping unfamiliar cars into their towns at gunpoint. CNN tut-tuts the activity, but it's pretty obvious that Oregon's normals are convinced that the authorities aren't about to protect them, and they are scared enough to take matters into their own hands. It's also disturbing that at a time like this, the Oregon fire marshal has resigned for murky reasons, a development that will be sure to hold more revelations, none of them likely to make the leftists running Oregon look good. There's some kind of chaos churning among the leftists running that state, and Antifa and arsonists seem to be protected, which is why they're running wild.



I don't know what the deal is in Oregon, whether it's over-the-top incompetency or idiotic politics, but geez. It begins to look like the anarchists are not content with buring down our cities, theyw ant to burn down the rest of the country too. I mean, what else am I supposed to thin when I read that people are deliberately setting fires outide the cities with molotov cocktails?

Perhaps he's mayor material. If he's a pedophile he may even make governor.
 
The scuttlebutt in CA is that ANTIFA/BLM are setting the fires out west and the media knows it but refuse to report it.....
 
It's not stupidity. No one releases a just caught suspected arsonist out of custody on account of "stupidity".
There are people in Portland and Oregon state government that seem to hold the same values and goals
of the Antifa cockroaches that Ted Wheeler encourages.

Once Trump is returned to office it's time for the FBI and Federal Justice Department to go through the
Oregon administrative state with a fine toothed comb and microscope.
 
Four individuals — two in Washington, one in Oregon, and another in California — have been arrested for arson as firefighters battle dozens of blazes across the West Coast. One of the arrestees is reportedly a “regular attendee” of anti-police rallies in Seattle.

Michael Jarrod Bakkela, 41, has been accused of arson, partially sparking the massive Almeda fire, according to the Oregon State Fire Marshal’s Office. Oregon Live reported that he has been arrested on “two counts of arson, 15 counts of criminal mischief and 14 counts of reckless endangerment”:


The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release Friday afternoon that on Tuesday evening, a resident of Phoenix saw a person, later identified as Bakkela, lighting a fire behind their house on Quail Lane. Because there was an impending blaze, the residents who saw him set the fire had to flee their home.

Bakkela was arrested and initially lodged in the Jackson County Jail on Tuesday on a charge of possession of methamphetamine. He remains in jail on the arson and criminal mischief charges.

The Almeda fire has destroyed at least 700 homes and resulted in at least two fatalities.

Elsewhere, authorities arrested two individuals in connection with the fires in Washington. One of the suspects, Jeffrey Alan Acord, has been accused of setting a fire along Highway 167. He live-streamed himself on the scene of the fire and reported it to police, claiming that he “literally pulled over to call it in.”

“Other drivers, however, told police they watched the 36-year-old Puyallup man walk into a field carrying a lighter and cardboard,” KIRO 7 reported.

The outlet added that Acord is a “regular attendee at Seattle ‘defund police’ rallies.” He is also facing charges for allegedly breaking into a gas station.

Jacob Altona, 28, has also been arrested in connection to arson.

Additionally, Anita Esquivel, 37, has been arrested for deliberately setting fires in California, according to the California Highway Patrol.

it's amazing how they have trained those fires to follow the roadways and stay out of Canada and Mexico.
I know it...and yesterday that little so called climatologist idiot was arguing with Trump about the climate vs forest management....well if he believes its all about global warming then wouldn't that make forest management all that more important?.... the left has lost all reason....

Three days locked up with time served, then back out of jail with a chevron gas card.
