Portland, Oregon, reminded America last night that Seattle doesn’t have a monopoly on radical leftists.
Rioters in Oregon’s largest city burned an American flag draped over a statue of George Washington — before destroying it.

The Daily Wire’s Ryan Saavedra reports:
A news crew from the outlet “found the statue face down and covered in graffiti.” Shortly after it was toppled, Portland police arrived on the scene, KOIN reports.
Journalist Andy Ngo tweeted out videos of the destruction of property, writing: “Antifa rioters on Sandy Blvd. in Portland draped a US flag over a George Washington statue [and] set it on fire. They then toppled the statue. ‘Genocidal colonist’ [and] ‘f— cops’ are sprayed on monument. Rioters have began to build another autonomous zone nearby.”
…
Ngo later added a video showing the aftermath and the destruction by the leftist protesters.
Portland wakes up to see what antifa did overnight. A century old statue of George Washington was toppled & set on fire with an American flag. “White fragility,” “Damn white men” & other messages are written on the moment. On the ground nearby: “Defund white men.” pic.twitter.com/zjrsZHJC9o

Last week, rioters destroyed a statue of Christopher Columbus donated by Italian immigrants to the city of Minneapolis. In London, anarchists vandalized statues of Abraham Lincoln and Winston Churchill.

Please keep your lies off these sites.
HERE’S A GOOD QUESTION …”I just watched the Democratic leaders of Congress kneel in the halls of Congress for about 9 minutes, for the death of a black man named George Floyd.
I have never seen them kneel for a fallen Police Officer. I have never seen them kneel for a fallen Soldier.
I NEVER SAW THEM KNEEL FOR THE SOLDIERS THAT HILLARY AND OBAMA LEFT TO DIE IN Benghazi!!
I have never seen them kneel for the thousands of (black and white) babies aborted EVERY DAY.
I have never seen them kneel for a murdered white man or woman. I have not seen them kneel for the thousands of black-on-black murder victims.
I have not seen them kneel for the thousands of elderly people that died in nursing homes due to the Corona Virus.
I have to ask: WHY are Democrats putting the life of George Floyd as more valuable than the lives of everyone else?
In fact, Democrats have put so much value on the life of George Floyd, they have allowed rioting, looting, arson, murder and mayhem in communities Nationwide…
ASK YOURSELF – WHY NOW?”
The Rats in Congress don’t have a ******* clue of what is to happen! Most of this country is NOT going to let this happen, and if you think this going to happen, YOU ARE ******* IN A DAY DREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on,bring it on!!!!! Cause we are just sitting here waiting for this to happen!
Great question, with fantastic points. The answer to the question is so painfully obvious it’s laughable. The demoncraps are doing such a pisspoor job of DOING THEIR JOB over the last almost 4 yrs, and have to deter attention away from this very disgusting fact, that theycan only degrade Trump every time they open their lying mouths. Plus they have absolutely NO political platform to run their joke of a candidate on, so they turn to trying to demonize everything Trump does. November is going to be such a great time for this country, when the Republicans take the House, Senate, and the oval office
Then this country will see an even more fantAANastic growth than it saw in the first three years of President Trumps first term, while demoncraps did everything they could to stop.
Go away !

If the cops opened up and killed all of these leftist assholes I would cheer.
Execute them all.
What exactly or approximately is the connection or relationship between the above two (2) posts and the subject of this discussion, I wonder.
As to the antics described in the article, there are more law abiding types than rioters. Push coming to shove, the law abiding types likely have more guns, and likely are more competent with them. The patience of these people, a majority of the populace is not without limits, something that the rioters, spoiled brats that they are, should consider most carefully.
Alan> You got that right. Jenks, Ok. is ready and able!
Does the OK mean Oatkeepers?
Yep…if they want police reform …what about them not being compliant…an not be stupid an violently towards people evan their own..TRUTH IS NOT ACCEPTED. ..ALMOST OUTLAWED BY DEM’S. Trump 2020….
When our pesident wins and those democrat lowlifes are out of power, we should replace all the statues those fools destroyed! They will not rule over us!
These democrat governors and mayors need to do their jobs and stop this BS. I don’t want ANY federal money going to fix any of the mess they allows to happen. These governors and mayors should be arrested and thrown in prison for allowing this.
Lisa, The seventeenth century philosopher Thomas Hobbes famously wrote that human life, in its natural state, is ” solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short. Hobbes argued that our instincts tend toward war in a bid to attain dominance over others, thus the establishment of government would be necessary to maintain law and order. This bleak view sounds like the state of affairs that Jesus described when he said ” All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but Jesus offers hope in the midst of despair. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy, ” but then the good news, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” those RIOTERS HAVE COME TO STEAL, KILL AND DESTROY. They do so to their own detriment. The authorities need to nip these activities in the bud. To ignore it will only encourage more violenc and destruction/
I totally agree! I honestly never thought I would see the day. Where we would have terrorists living in our cities. And having these so called Governor’s welcoming them with open arms. Willingly let them destroy our property murder our police officers. With no questions asked, no consequences. All while justifying the actions of these terrorists. Yes, these Governor’s and Major should be put in prison for aiding and abetting domestic terrorists.
NORMAL people are going to have to step up in areas where the police are “handcuffed” by the politicians and take back civilization and civil order. Anarchy cannot be allowed.
They are the reprobate talked about in the Bible. They will do everything and anything to get what they want and they do care who they hurt or kill to get it. They have deplorable minds and wicked evil minds. Satan rules over them and they obey him.
If I typed what I really feel about these P.O.S. snowflakes, they would boot me off of here forever. As long as there are PATRIOTIC Americans left in this country, they can take down all of the statues, but the history of the country will not die as long as we teach the young people that haven’t been BRAINWASHED by the equally P.O.S. liberal factions about the history of this country instead of LIES and DISTORTED STORIES!!!
And where were the Portland cops? The mayor?
Oh…
If BLM and Antifa want a race war, THEN BRING IT ON! Patriots will kick your azz!!!!
This is urban guerrilla warfare. Tried and tested in Hong Kong and only brought under control when their funded was stopped. Very difficult to Police and very difficult for ordinary citizens to counter. The insurrection act seems to be the only answer.
Vandals like those need no trial and deserve none! Just two bullets each and buried in a landfill! Their rights were null and void the moment they decided to commit such acts. And it is time to post armed guards at these places with full authority to use lethal force without question to stop any attempts by anyone to destroy our monuments and memorials.
I absolutely agree, but one bullet, gun control, between the eyes, where we all thought they have, I mean, had a brain. Why am I not near these soros funded bastards when this happens.
I have items for their shit faces aimed.
There are so many great black, and people of all color. Just a small band of these useless pieces of shit following the likes of the msm media, soros, piglousi et al.
Ban me, who cares. I have done nothing to help stop this. We need to. When we do, if in the name of Real America, not for dems, libshits or socialists, we are labeled the terrorists. All dems, libs, socialists are the real terrorists. **** them all
Portland should be ashamed they allow this desecration of history. Without Washington you would not be here to show how ignorant we have become.
Antifa roots come from the Bolsheviks in the early 1920’s and they were against Mussolini. They are communists, and that is what their goal is here in our Country. They are destroying our History because they don’t like democracy, and if history is gone then the next generation won’t oppose them because they have no reference to turn to. This is the second city that they have established their own “zone.” They are not good people and especially if you are a caucasian American.Their goal is to destroy democracy and unfortunately the democrats are supporting them and think it’s fine.This is not about Black Lives Matter, they are two separate causes.BLM wants changes made, which is needed, but they aren’t here to destroy our Country. Antifa are terrorists and in Seattle earlier this week they attacked a black man who was carrying the American flag.Terrorism needs to be stopped. Soros is one of the main financial backers to this group of anarchists and they have been planning this after the impeachment failed. Check facts for yourself, but you need to get out of your box and don’t follow the MSM, because they’re job is to spread fear and don’t report real news.
This isn’t surprising at all. Antifa owns Portland. It operates there with impunity under the benign eye of the mayor, who has ordered the police not to interfere with them. There is, literally, nothing for which an Antifa member can be arrested, in Portland. Now, it’s the same in Seattle, just more recent.
It is just heartbreaking to see the father of our country’s likeness being held in such destruction and lack of respect. It is because of him and our other founding fathers that these traitors have the right to protest. But destruction of our historic places and statues is illegal. The fact that there was no law enforcement to stop this just shows that we need to take a closer look at who we put in positions of power. I know the President has to have the mayor or governor ask to send in the military but I wish he would do it anyway.
If these people think it is so awful here, they should just leave. I for one would be glad to see them go.
They have declared war on White People. The cops won’t do anything. Either Trump call in the National Guard or We The People will protect ourselves.
This is not just any statue they destroyed. It’s a symbol of our founding of our Country. By their actions have they not told us that they want our culture and Country destroyed? It is up to We The People to defend our Country. This time from an enemy from within. Lincoln said that the only way we lose our Country is from an enemy from within. Let’s take the kid gloves of and start treating these punk as a threat to our children and woman. No one will ever fault us for protecting our woman and children.
these protesters are criminals, scumbags, terrorist that are destroying our national treasure!! and busisnesses they ain’t got no respect!! for anythibg or anybody! they’re creating a revolution!! a civil war!!! it’s gonna be like north and south all over again, only enemies to the US who have so much hatred do that but those people are worst than that, we need to kick them out of this country, they’re not!!! americans! they’re scumbags!! criminals!! terrorists! possessed driven by hate, rage, and General Mattis said they’re only a small group of lawbreakers? what a pathetic!! General James Mattis he’s a total disgrace! a total disappointment!!
Sooner rather than later God is going to show up in America with His Mighty POWER and all the evil doers will run for the hills.
God loves America and He will not allow the enemy Satan to destroy it. HALLELUJAH
For people to live in a Democratic Republic someone must teach the principles of what makes a Democratic Republic work, + the positives of having a Democratic Republic.
Join a Tea Party group and get to work.
My question is: Why are the rest of us just standing by and allowing this to happen? Are we willing to continually cave the the unrealistic demands of a bunch of domestic terrorists, such as Antifa and BLM, just so we can appear to be “woke”? Presently, there is not one citizen in this country that has been a slave (unless they immigrated from a country that still allows such a despicable practice) or has owned a slave, so why are we still so obsessed with what happened so far in our past? Why are we so obsessed with judging and condemning our ancestors using today’s standards of morality, when these people lived in an entirely different societal atmosphere? It’s impossible for us to go back and insist they live by our standards or morals (and I’m not sure I’d want them to live by today’s morals which are sorely lacking) and it’s pure folly to suggest that their actions in our past history have directly affected those of us who are alive today. To say otherwise is just another excuse for attempting to force folks fall in line behind a political agenda. Wake up, America, you can’t destroy the past, you can only learn from it. Attempting to destroy it because you claim it’s painful/offensive, instead of using it for educational purposes, is futile and will never get you the recognition you desire. It will, in the end, only hurt your cause and make the problem worse.
Sadly 50 plus years of liberal indoctrination (aka. public education) has turned the greatest nation God ever created, into the mess it is today.
I’m 62, and if my parents and grandparents were alive today, they would first ask US, how we could have allowed this to happen, and then they would go confront these punks and lay them out and tell them if they don’t like this nation, LEAVE!!!
The question is, do we have that same courage?
It’s not looking good.
We the people need to start taking down statues of communist hero’s in reprisal like milk, all of the communist involved in the uncivil / unconstitutional rights act, malcum x, all statues of fdr, woodrow Wilson, Truman, all of the Kennedy’s, Carter, clinton and obamma!
There is no proof that Antifa was involved with the destruction of this statue. If you want this stuff to stop then police need to get the right perpetrators. I know Antifa is the latest punching bag and boogeyman for some, but that doesn’t mean that movement was behind this statue desecration and tear down. Antifa is not an organized group, but a movement. The name means anti-fascism. I see several people here referring to anarchists. That’s another group. Yes, there are anarchists out there, and white supremacists, and boogooloo, and Proud Boys etc. Their symbols, flags and MOs have been seen at protests. But, there’s also been cases of those groups doing some bad stuff so that Antifa and others would get blamed. They are acting like opportunists.
As of this writing, there have been two arrests of white supremacists who either did do some horrible things or were planning it-both were active military & white supremacists. One has been charged with murdering a Sheriff’s Deputy and a federal courthouse security officer on separate occasions. He admitted he killed the law enforcement officers so that others (blacks), would be blamed. Secondly, an active duty soldier & white supremacist has been charged with numerous conspiracy charges and probably eventually treason for planning with a Neo-Nazi group to massacre his unit and him. That’s sick!!!
While I don’t think it’s right for these mobs to be tearing down statues, I think we need to be careful in pointing fingers. I agree that some statues, especially those reflecting confederates, should come down if the community/leaders determine it best. But, not how these angry young people are doing it. And, I don’t agree with some of their choices of statues to desecrate. But, that does not mean they represent a group or movement or any particular group/movement. Until I see that, like in the details I provided above, comments and blame is only conjecture and not the “American way” of justice-facts,due process, balance and fairness.
they need to start shooting some of these terrorist, kinda like kent state, only a lot more.
