Recent reports show Black Lives Matter (BLM) protesters verbally attacking outdoor diners in Washington, DC, with claims they are targeting "white spaces."
We see more reports of leftwing protesters also harassing outdoor diners in Charlotte North Carolina with claims that "white silence equals violence," as if that is their justification to riot and commit violence on innocent residents.
In liberal Chicago, a state with stringent gun control laws, 66 people were shot, five fatally, just over the weekend.
Via CBS New York, we see that 45 people were shot since Friday, with eight fatalities. Again, a liberally run state with significant gun control laws.
We see Antifa protesters, supportive of BLM protests, rioting for over 85 days straight in Portland, Oregon.
Here is an excerpt from the Portland PD, who arrested 23 people during the latest riot, describing the scene:
Almost immediately, from behind the shields and elsewhere, individuals began throwing chunks of ceramic, rocks, and glass bottles in the direction of the officers. Green lasers, which are capable of causing permanent eye damage, were shined at officers. At least one balloon filled with feces was thrown at officers on the roof of the building.
Due to the criminal activity, at 10:29p.m., the gathering was declared an unlawful assembly. All participants were directed over loudspeaker to leave to the south. Failure to adhere to this direction may subject them to citation, arrest, and/or crowd control agents including, but not limited to, tear gas and impact weapons.
Officers stayed far back for the next half hour, giving participants ample time to leave voluntarily. Few took advantage of that opportunity.
A commercial grade firework was thrown. The police vehicles were struck by thrown bottles, paint bombs (photo), rocks, and heavy metal screws (photo). Marbles were launched by at least one wrist rocket style slingshot. Officers on the roof of the building were struck by rocks. Paint bombs were thrown. Signs were torn from the ground and thrown (photo).
At 11:08p.m., the event was deemed a riot. More direction was given over loudspeaker that the criminal activity has continued and that all persons must leave to the south. Failure to adhere to this direction may subject them to citation, arrest, and/or crowd control agents including, but not limited to, tear gas and impact weapons.
As officers were preparing to move the crowd, someone lit a canopy against the building on fire (photo). The fire began to burn to the siding of the building, so officers on the roof got a fire extinguisher to try and put it out. As they were putting out the fire, multiple people pelted the officers with rocks. A lieutenant was struck with a chunk of ceramic, causing a cut to his hand (photo). A second awning was also lit on fire close to a tree (photo). That caused damage before it was extinguished.
At about 11:30p.m., due to the extreme threat to life safety and the aggression of the crowd, Portland Police deployed CS gas, then moved the crowd to the south. Arrests were made and crowd control munitions were used. Officers reported commercial grade fireworks were thrown from suspects with "press" markings. Officers pulled back but within minutes the crowd began to return. At 12:30a.m., officers made another effort to move the riot away. More arrests were made. After officers disengaged again, rioters moved into the street again. A security guard in a car got stuck in the crowd. A car with a red cross taped to the hood, indicating it was an informal protest medic, moved ahead of the security guard and blocked him in. He was eventually allowed to turn around and leave.
Those are just the reports, the visuals of Antifa and/or BLM attacking members of a Pro-police rally, brings the point home of what Portland PD has had to deal with for nearly three solid months. As a side note, most of those arrested are not being prosecuted by the state prosecutor, who of course, is also a liberal.
