In less than 40 days Portland may be the first official, verified, certified Marxist zone with the vast majority of elected officials actual, no bs MARXIST TRAITORS in the process of implementing a Marxist dictatorship in my face. Now you see why this will end in blood and fire? Bodies stacked on the streets and the kind of seething hatred we saw in Kosovo, Sarajevo and Rwanda?
I still think the UN or China will recognize Portland as a Marxist diplomatic zone and physically occupy the city with both UN and Chinese troops. Faster if Biden wins, a little slower if Trump does.
The level of crime and criminal behavior is off the charts in Portland since the mass riots started. We had 3 people shot dead, and four stabbed over last weekend. Our rate of murders, rapes, property crime are all UP significantly year to year this summer. The rule of law is collapsing, the streets are full of violent crazy people, even during the day. PPD is no where to be seen and the political class is despised. Anybody who can has left downtown. The local media lies to my face, and the chaos is everywhere. It looks like a war zone with EVERYTHING boarded up.Doomer,
Has Law and Order broken down in Portland? If the Law is no more being obeyed, are there shoot-outs going in Portland now? Are you hearing gun-battles at night?
On Saturday, October 10, 2020 at about 9:30p.m., a gathering formed in Alberta Park, 1905 Northeast Killingsworth Street. The participants moved on sidewalks to North Precinct, 449 Northeast Emerson Street. When the group arrived, they were numbered at an estimated 75 people. Virtually all of them wore armor, helmets, masks, and/or carried shields and umbrellas.
North Precinct, an active community policing center operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, is a critical part of city infrastructure. It has been targeted numerous times over the past 130-plus nights by violent protests, including some that devolved into riots, arson fires, and violent attacks on officers. On numerous occasions, officers have attempted to deescalate by staying far back, and not intervening when streets were blocked by crowds. That strategy has not been successful in preventing violence from individuals in the crowd who are intent on forcing officers to respond.
Videos posted on social media show protesters who look as uniformed and weaponized as the police, making it difficult to distinguish people in the crowd.The Portland Police Bureau (PPB) had information that the gathering was a planned “direct action” event. The crowd’s posture, including their armored attire, strongly suggested that this was planned to be another such event. PPB was also concerned about the safety of the protesters, who were clad in black and difficult to see, on a major thoroughfare that was open to vehicular traffic. Due to these concerns, and the fact there were resources in place to make arrests, action was taken earlier in this event than ones before.

PORTLAND, Ore — Police declared a riot in downtown Portland on Sunday night after a large group of demonstrators marched through the South Park Blocks, toppling statues of Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt and breaking windows.
Protesters met under the Burnside Bridge and marched to the South Park Blocks for what they called an “Indigenous Peoples Day of Rage.” A social media post called for an end of colonialism and the abolishment of police.
Around 8:40 p.m., Police tweeted that a "mass gathering" had formed at Southwest Park Avenue and Southwest Madison Street where they were trying to pull down a statue with a chain. Police said anyone involved in "criminal behavior, including vandalism" was subject to arrest.
The statue in that area is of Theodore Roosevelt on horseback. According to the city of Portland's website, "the statue entitled Theodore Roosevelt - Rough Rider portrays the colonel in the actual uniform and accoutrements he wore in his famous ascent of San Juan Hill during the Spanish-American War."
OPB reporter Sergio Olmos tweeted that the statue was taken down.
The group also toppled a statue of Abraham Lincoln nearby, according to Olmos.
After downing the statues in the park blocks, members in the crowd began smashing windows at the Oregon Historical Society, The Oregonian reported.

Windows were shattered at the Oregon Historical Society on the eve of Indigenous Peoples Day.
At 9:40 p.m., police declared a riot after getting more reports of damage. They told the crowd to disperse immediately.
Protests have been happening consistently in Portland since the killing of George Floyd on Memorial Day. Demonstrators have taken to Portland’s streets for issues that include police brutality, racial inequity, the murder of people of color by police, the abolishment of police and prisons and the defunding of police.
On Saturday night, protesters marched to Portland police’s North Precinct where 26 arrests were made. Independent journalists at the scene said the crowd of marchers was arrested with little to no warning.
So Amanda Siebe just admitted to committing a federal crime, with a term of up to ten years in prison, for destroying a statue. And she wants to run for the US House. Okaayyyyy.
