How many of these residents have cheered on Antifa and the destruction?
Neighbors unhappy as demonstrations move east into residential Portland
As Portland’s protests against police violence and systemic racism approach 80 consecutive nights, the location of the main action has shifted from downtown to residential neighborhoods on the east side of the Willamette River, bringing crowds of demonstrators and a heavy police force onto usually quiet nighttime streets.
That’s some pretty insane “reporting” from Oregon Live by Lizzie Acker. The people “protesting” are pretty much white leftists, quite a few who aren’t from the Portland area. Or even from Oregon. Are they protesting their own racism in their lilly white city? How is rioting demonstrating?
On Reddit and Facebook, people who live in the area expressed anger about property destruction.
“Lots of people worked hard to make our little neighborhood pleasant and to help the local businesses stay open,†wrote Redditor WheeblesWobble in a post called “Leave Kenton Alone!â€
“Now it’s trashed,†the user wrote. “This was not a BLM protest, this was a tantrum by a bunch of entitled kids.â€
The writer of the post and many commenters noted that some of the damaged property was at Po’Shine’s, a Black-owned business.
The damage was to a dumpster, Po’Shine’s head chef James Bradley, said Tuesday.
“What a dumpster has to do with Black Lives Matter, I don’t know,†Bradley said.
See, they’re just demonstrators, protesting for black lives, right? Many residents have support the BLM/Antifa rioters by sheltering them in their homes when the police come after them. Now the riots are in their neighborhoods. And they’re crying. See, they were fine with the violence in Other Areas, but not their own.
Outlets like Oregon Live and BLM/Antifa rioter enablers blame the police for pushing the violence into neighborhoods, but, the meeting point was near the residence area to start with.
And the violence will only get worse
Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt, leaning on a group of community representatives he called his transition team, announced Tuesday that his office will drop most of the charges filed against protesters in Portland.
His prosecutors won’t pursue demonstrators accused of interfering with police, disorderly conduct, criminal trespass, escape or harassment if the allegations don’t involve “deliberate’’ property damage, theft or force against another person or threats of force, Schmidt said.
Oh, sure, that won’t entice the rioters to become more violent.
The new policy from the @MultCoDA @DAMikeSchmidt makes it easier to get away with rioting, resisting arrest, escape, harassment, assault & more in Portland. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/VRDwzXSqyl

Don’t complain, Portland residents, and those in the suburbs outside Portland, when the violence comes for you. This is what you support and enable.
There’s some risk for them, as they are demonstrating now in the areas in which their parents’ basements are.
I’ve said it before: the left will be shocked, shocked! at just how many Republican votes are going to be cast in the heavily Democratic cities. It was always easy for them to be liberal when their homes and livelihoods weren’t threatened.
The Ukrainian natural gas firm that appointed Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter to a lucrative board seat relentlessly pressured the State Department throughout the 2016 election in an effort to get corruption allegations against it dropped and its badly damaged reputation rehabilitated, newly released government memos show.
“They keep trying through every channel they can,” a State Department official lamented in summer 2016, describing a nonstop lobbying campaign by Burisma Holdings and its American representatives.
IF the MSM was all conservative. The democratic party would not exist. They would all be in JAIL.
This shit has to be stopped no matter what it takes.
