On Tuesday night (the second consecutive night), Portland Police declared a "riot" after a sizeable crowd set fire to the entrance of the Portland Police Association (PPA) building on North Lombard. For the last several days, what has likely been "far-left Antifa" has been wreaking havoc around the metro area.

Portland Police said last night's chaotic scene involved protesters "lighting a fire behind the PPA office possibly in a garbage can. People are shooting fireworks toward the building."

The police said, "people appear to be using accelerants on a door to ignite a fire which is growing larger." They're referring to the PPA entrance door.
For the second night, a riot is being declared by @PortlandPolice. A fire was set to a door at the Portland Police Association building on North Lombard. The name of Daunte Wright is now sprayed on the side of the building. #Portland #Riot @fox12oregon #BreakingNews #news pic.twitter.com/wbslFkKuqk

At least "100 people" were responsible for last night's chaos. Others have said there were more than 200 protesters. Police eventually repelled the protesters from the PPA building to extinguish flames.

On Monday night, hundreds of protesters gathered in the metro area in opposition to the police killing of Daunte Wright, a 20-year-old who was shot and killed during a traffic stop on Sunday afternoon in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. Some protesters attacked the Penumbra Kelly Building in east Portland. Similar demonstrations were held across the country.
Over the weekend, protesters attempted to burn down a Portland ICE facility.
... and this is not the first time Antifa protesters attacked an ICE building in Portland. In late January, dozens of protesters hurled projectiles and mortar explosives at federal police officers.
This whole movement to defund police pushes America deeper into a violent mess that could one day be equivalent to a third-world country unless law and order are immediately restored.
Just take a look at what happened outside the Brooklyn Center Police Department last night.

It truly is a shame that when peaceful protesters protest, police come and attack them just because there are a lot of black people.
We must end police violence against peaceful protesters.

If you're more worried about a harmless fire than the constant murder of black Americans, you're a psychopath.

Minnesota Cops Scream SLASH Daunte Wright Protesters' Tires
When beating your own wife and kids just isn't enough...
Like all fascists, they instinctively crave violence.
Independent photojournalist Jon Farina fearlessly recorded Minnesota cops threatening to slash Daunte Wright protesters' tires as they arrested people, including media. Jon reports the police also smashed windows.

Once Again, Police Rally Around Their Death-Dealing Power
Daunte Wright was dead. Minnesota police raised a “thin blue line” flag, claiming their deadly force with a mark of pride.

Following a night of protest in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, after an officer shot and killed a young Black man, Daunte Wright, police raised a “thin blue line” flag, under the stars and stripes. Reporters stood there getting their live shots. A video of the scene was seen nearly two million times in one day. A century ago, the NAACP would hang a black flag out the window of their office on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, with stark white letters visible for blocks away, reading: “A Man Was Lynched Yesterday.” It was a memorial, in the sense that it observed a death, and a marker interrupting daily life in the city in motion beneath it. In Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, the flag announced death, too. With the American flag, it flew at top mast. It claimed deadly force with a mark of pride.
Sharing the flag video, Hanif Abdurraqib wrote, “No reform exists that can adequately (or even inadequately) address the actual history of police and policing. A history that leads to the limited imagination, language, and principles of an institution and its pawns valuing violence and power above all else.” Millions of people know exactly what this means. Every time police kill, the observation reaches more people still. The police cannot be separated from this death-dealing power. To truly do so would eliminate the institution of policing. Lawmakers might not know that. Mayors may turn their backs on the truth of it. But police seem to know it. When their colleagues are suspended, they resign in protest, as 57 emergency response officers did in Buffalo, New York, last summer. They threaten to withdraw from community anti-violence partnerships, as police in several counties and tribal reservations in Wisconsin did, if those groups voice support for Black Lives Matter. Police know they are on a certain side. They are acting out as if they have nothing to lose.
The flying of the flag is not only a reaction to those protesting police after Officer Kim Potter shot and killed 20-year-old Daunte Wright. Potter was the president of the local police union, which means that she had advised other officers who killed while on duty. Typically, police unions function like first responders in such killings. (When New York police officer Peter Liang shot Akai Gurley while patrolling a public housing development, he texted his police union rep while Gurley lay dying.) Police unions also perform a public relations role for officers under deadly force investigations. Now Potter was the subject of one herself. She would not be speaking on her own behalf; in fact, she announced Tuesday that she would resign. The flag stood in as a declaration of support in what may become a murder case.

Imagine the hypocrisy of a government who will allow businesses to card people to get a job or buy groceries, but won't card people to vote in elections and gives millions of non-citizens free money from taxpayers.
