Still can't get there from here. Anyway, you can look it up yourself and confess, as everyone here must, that I'm indeed very much right, yet again.

Nope, your claim remains bogus until you present the link to a reliable source. An initial search turned up nothing and I’m not going to search further. Something like that would definitely be news and it isn’t showing up there.

As for this, I’m great attitude you’ve recently started displaying. It’s concerning in a sense that if you actually believe it, you seal your fate here and are labeled a narcissist. Something you may find concerning is that Jack does the same thing.

This invites me to ask. Do you mirror Jacks extreme thinking and behaviors? I hope not. I believe we share the desire for a fairer and more prosperous America for everyone.

I posted the title of the article itself. Not my fault this ancient forum can't link to it.

You'll just need something more modern than this.

Try again. I'm assuming you can read. Your link includes @ in it. Not something you see in links to articles. Surly you can find a proper link to a topic being widely reported on? Blaming the error on this site is a bit off don’t you think?

Thanks second this gets it done. So far, I have yet to see a connection between blackwater and Portland. Did you see one? It looks as though those deployed may include contract officers who aren't law-enforcement certified.

As it stands, I think only federal agents have been deployed to Portland. As I've glanced at the reporting, I didn't notice any lawsuits regarding the use of contract officers who aren't law-enforcement certified.

So far, this would mean any posting of blackwater being deployed to Portland, as of now, unverified. It does appear the complaint of contract officers who aren't law-enforcement certified may ring true when all the evidence is reviewd.

I'll give you a little tip, Ted.

Don't go looking for Blackwater. They don't go by that name anymore.



You all should also keep in mind that some of the genius Democrat leaders of these cities have come out and said that the police should be defunded and that money should instead be spent on private security firms.


This is a very, very bad idea. You don't want heavily armed private security companies running the streets no matter what level of government is funding them. It's like a Dick Cheney wet dream.

Here's a hint, THG, REAVERBOT wants America to be destroyed.

There are people on the board who want to see a fairer and more properous America for everyone: YOU. SIX. KIKI. JO357. JSF. Probably CC. Possibly WISHY. We may disagree passionately on how to get there, but we have the same goal in mind

But there are some people I would exclude from that list: SECOND has flat out said he hates Americans, he is so consumed by hate he can't think beyond that. And REAVERBOT wants America ... and Americans... to be destroyed.

This [using contractors for policing ... or crowd control in riot situations] is a very, very bad idea. You don't want heavily armed private security companies running the streets no matter what level of government is funding them. It's like a Dick Cheney wet dream.

Agreed. It's bad enough that we use contractors/ mercs on foreign soil, because they're not bound by either civilian or military (martial) law. It would be worse if they were used here.

America's Major Cities Are Being Turned Into War Zones, And It's Not Going To End In November

Michael Snyder via TheMostImportantNews.com,

The civil unrest that we witnessed all across America this weekend was extremely alarming. For a few weeks, it seemed like the chaos that erupted in the immediate aftermath of the tragic death of George Floyd was subsiding, but in recent days there has been a dramatic resurgence. Within the last 48 hours, there have been eruptions of violence in major cities such as Seattle, Portland, Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Oakland, Louisville, Austin and Richmond. At this point we have seen sustained protests and rioting for nearly two months straight, and it looks like the chaos isn’t going to disappear any time soon.

Over the past few weeks, a few people have written me emails suggesting that the civil unrest will disappear if Joe Biden wins the election in November.

But I don’t believe that this is true. Virtually all of the rioting is happening in cities that are controlled by Democrats, and the leftist politicians that run those cities do not have any control over the Marxist protesters at all.

For example, just look at what has been happening in Seattle and Portland. The politicians that run those cities are radical Democrats, and yet those radical Democrats have been completely and utterly unable to end the violence. The following comes from the Daily Mail…

The streets of Seattle turned violent Saturday when protesters set fire to a youth detention center and a police precinct. Other protesters threw rocks, bottles, fireworks and other explosives at cops, with the unrest leading local authorities to declare protests had turned into ‘riots that afternoon’.

Portland geared up for its 59th night of unrest Saturday with swathes of demonstrators marching from the federal building to the Portland Marriott where they believe federal officers are staying, in the wake of a violent night Friday that ended with at least one person stabbed.

To me, it is absolutely amazing that Portland has had 59 days of protests in a row.

One man that actually lives in downtown Portland says that his neighborhood has essentially been turned into “a war zone”…

Gabriel Johnson has lived in the Essex House Apartments in downtown Portland for seven years. He has loved it — until now.

“I compare it to a war zone and some people will take that and say he must be exaggerating but no,” said Johnson.

Johnson said he is kept awake by the nightly demonstrations taking place just two blocks from his home. The sounds of fireworks and flash bangs, he said, are overwhelming. The tear gas is bad, too.

And Johnson certainly knows what a “war zone” is like, because he is actually a military veteran.

Elsewhere, two very heavily armed militia groups nearly came face to face in Louisville, Kentucky this weekend …

More than 300 members of the Atlanta-based Black militia NFAC, or “Not ******* Around Coalition” came to Louisville demanding justice for 26-year-old Breonna Taylor, an ER technician who was fatally shot by officers in March.

The group came close to 50 far-right “Three Percenter” militia members, who were also heavily armed. Police kept the sides apart and tensions eventually dissipated.

My threshold for the shit hitting the fan is when guns come out and people start shooting. We came very close to that.

If just one person had gotten an itchy trigger finger, that situation could have gotten out of control very rapidly.

But there was one unfortunate incident when a member of the NFAC accidentally had a gun discharge…

Police confirmed three members of the NFAC were struck by gunfire when someone’s gun discharged while participating in a demonstration Saturday. All three victims went to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Meanwhile, things
