Even the most useless mayor in the history of the world Ted Wheeler of Portland, is recognizing that the protests are violent riots.
“Last night, 200-300 people went to East Precinct intent on violence. The purpose was to attack the East Precinct facility and the people therein,” Wheeler said, later adding, “Exits were blocked; they were barricaded shut with cars and with two-by-fours. Security cameras were disabled, and accelerants were used to set and grow fires. The attack was immediate, it was intentional, and it was planned. It was intended to cause serious injury or death, and it very well could have.”
“When you commit arson with an accelerant in an attempt to burn down a building that is occupied by people that you have intentionally trapped inside, you are not demonstrating; you are attempting to commit murder,” Wheeler said.
“This is not peaceful protest. This is not advocacy to advance reforms or transform any system,” Wheeler continued.If Bhaalizmo had any shame he would be pretty embarrassed right now for falling for the media lies that the protests have been peaceful since the feds left. There have been violent riots going on in Portland for the past 2 months; before the feds showed up, during the feds' presence, and after the feds left. The violent riots have never stopped and you are nothing but a tool for the Democrat party because you are incapable of thinking for yourself.Wheeler said that city officials expected the attacks on city buildings, police, and residential neighborhoods to continue:
We anticipate additional planned attacks on occupied buildings over the next few days. I want to put a message out to the people of this city: if you are a nonviolent demonstrator and you don’t want to be part of intentional violence, please stay away from these areas. Our community must say that this violence is not Portland, that these actions do not reflect our values, and these crimes are distracting from reform, not advancing it. And they’re keeping our police officers from responding to historic levels of violence in our community. Right now, Portland is experiencing record gun violence and our police bureau, its leadership, its detectives, its frontline officers, its support staff need to be focused on responding to that, not on responding to arson at our own police precincts.
Now we just need the usual dumb comment from someone stating "But we are saying the peaceful protesters are being peaceful! We aren't talking about the violent ones! And by pointing out the violent rioters you are trying to say ALL of the protesters are violent! And oh yeah it's the fault of the police anyways. And don't bother saying over 99% of police are good people who save lives because it's not a good comparison because it completely destroys the idiotic narrative I am crafting here."
