SECOND is a troll because it constantly misrepresents what people post, fails to address their actual positions, and resorts to personal attacks when its brain isn't working (which is most of the time).

Portland Police Declare a Riot After Right-Wing Marchers Begin Beating Antifascists with Flag Poles

Homeland Security officers fired pepper balls into a crowd of leftist protesters.

Proud Boys bussed in a horde of protesters and a few of their members were arrested before this violent outbreak even started, for different incidents. Tell me which side keeps calling for civility again?

Yanno what, REAVERFAN? I read the article and looked at the video and I have to say that it is a disingenuous article written by a whiner who believes that it was everyone else's fault that someone got hurt.

The author whined that the rightwing group was allowed to have flagpoles (maybe because the rightwing group had a permit for a demonstration, and ANTIFA didn't?) And then she whined that the police didn't protect them from those nasty bullies. And she studiously avoided the topic of who started it. The altercation is presented in a passive tone, like bubblegum got all over the dog.

Quote:

Almost instantly, the two groups began exchanging blows, throwing objects at one another and shouting—each calling the other "Nazis."
Well.

The author doesn't mind insinuating that it was the "other" group's fault:
Quote:

Joey Gibson returned to Portland in greater numbers than have been seen since last summer, seemingly bent on wresting back the spotlight with street violence.
Oh, that "seemingly" attempts to cover a boatload of bias!

And then she whines about being pepper-bombed even after
Quote:

[ANTIFA]protesters had been throwing objects at the agents and "antagonizing" them [police]
.

Given that OTHER press releases put the blame squarely on ANTIFA/ Black Bloc, I decided to look at the video in slow motion and what I saw was a group of black-masked (presumably Black Bloc) alternately surging towards, mobbing, and retreating from a group of people across the street. Now, in MY book, if you have crossed the street to assault another person, that kind of makes YOU the aggressor, doesn't it? (This kind of reminds me of the story about how a parade viewer claimed that a man in a bunny costume "assaulted" him, when video clearly shows that the so-called victim stepped off the curb and waded into the parade for a confrontation. Needless to say, his claim of being "assaulted" didn't go very far.)

As long as you insist that everything is the Republicans'/ Democrats' fault, then you fail to grasp the REAL problem with American politics.

Yesterday, there were hundreds of protests all over the country. I attended 2 of them, myself. They were peaceful. They had speakers, music, etc. Totally peaceful.

Nazis from out of town bus themselves into Portland, wearing riot gear and carrying pipes, and guess what? They do what they went there to do: Start a fight and blame it on everyone else.

That's what Nazis do. Read some history.

"Nazis" obtained permits from Portland to gather.

Who DIDN'T obtain permits were auntie-pho.

"The afternoon began with a permitted rally at Terry Schrunk Federal Plaza organized by Joey Gibson, U.S. Senate candidate for Washington and leader of the right-wing, Vancouver-based group.

A counter-demonstration by masked local anti-fascist groups gathered nearby among a heavy police presence."

"Scuffles broke out after anti-fascists pelted marchers from the right-wing Patriot Prayer group with eggs, water bottles and firecrackers, the Oregonian newspaper reported. The Patriot Prayer group’s founder Joey Gibson is running for the Senate."

And police let the Nazis march with weapons and riot gear.

There was one other violent incident that was reported.

Man brandishes gun at 'Families Belong Together' rally in Huntsville
https://www.al.com/news/huntsville/index.ssf/2018/06/man_brandishes_gu
n_at_families.html


"Huntsville police said the incident started at around noon when Sealy, a counter-protester, got into an altercation with another person at the rally.

Lt. Michael Johnson said Sealy is accused of picking a fight with a protester and pushing the protester. The protester pushed Sealy back, knocking him down. That's when Sealy is accused of pulling out a gun."

Yeah, those Nazis are so tough... The mean, violent lefty pushed him down! WAAAA!

Ya. Those cowardly masked ANTIFA Fascists sound kinda tough. And Lawless, just like their Nazi heroes. Why don't they call themselves Gestapo?

They seemed to be more toothless this time, failing to kill anybody, like they did Richard Morrisett (April 2018).
