Relatives of Jacob Blake, who was shot by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, last week, led a rally of more than 1,000 people Saturday as protests continued over shootings that left Blake paralyzed and two dead. The White House said President Trump would visit Kenosha on Tuesday.
Videos from the scene showed sporadic fighting, as well as Trump supporters firing paintball pellets at opponents and using bear spray as counterprotesters threw things at the Trump caravan.“There have been some instances of violence between demonstrators and counterdemonstrators,” Portland Police said via Twitter. “Officers have intervened and in some cases made arrests.”The Black Lives Matter demonstrations are usually staged near police buildings and federal buildings.
Early Saturday morning, fires set outside a police union building that is a frequent site for protests prompted police to declare a riot.An accelerant was used to ignite a mattress and other debris that was laid against the door of the Portland Police Assn. building, police said in a statement. At least one dumpster had also been set on fire in the street nearby.
The commotion followed a sit-in in the lobby of the Portland mayor’s condominium building Friday night.Get all the day's most vital news with our Today's Headlines newsletter, sent every weekday morning.
Terrorists. Terrorists showed up to start something.
You again left out the person murdered was a trump supporter and the murder was a Democrat antifa supporter
They are not protesters they are rioters and dangerous Im very afraid of the so called BLM protesters😡😤and very angry
Trump 'LAW & ORDER!!!' Law is to provide order. It is not just the Law of the Police but the Constitution also protects the Law of our Rights. Inflaming it in 2020, may payoff by creating Fear & chaos, it does not serve America, nor the GOP.
It was the counterprotester that was killed. Guess they don’t support equal rights to protest.
Why can’t both sides be protestors?
The National flag burning...OMG! I find these groups has no Principle. Only violence ,Destruction and their act is disgraced themselves in public as a person. They should argue fairly and squarely without violence. PortlandProtests BLM Antifa
A Trump supporter do the same Tuesday and kill 2 people
Damn! You guys are crazy over there
Peaceful protestors don't loot, burn, destroy, or intimidate. Driving down a street on a permitted rally is not violence. How long did you think average people would allow unpeaceful protests to go on? Look within to answer this question, no reply necessary.
Why don't they all just fricken go home and stay home like they're supposed to?
Hmmm a right wing Trump supporting militia man was shot and killed. Aww, that sucks!
White protestors have been killed. Three in last few days. Solidarity.
Stop framing this as a clash. It’s murder by fascist gangs.
Trump’s America!
Donald Trump wants : ' A financial contribution from ALL car manufacturers, oil industry & Insurance companies to the MAINTENANCE and SECURING of public roads paid by taxpayers. They alone have allowed the growth of these industries with dividends EXCLUSIVELY private '
5-1 it was a leftist.
this has got to stop. Mayors, take a stand & protect low/middle, hardworking, law abiding citizens. stop the protests & violence! the majority of police are good, and help to protect us normal people and our communities. all the police should not be blamed for the corrupt ones
We are on the verge of civil war that's less about race than we think. It's more about low educated folk, emboldened by the White House, revolting, in the name of patriotism. Bannon is the true architect of this strategy, Trump just the chancer trying to benefit from it
People are just at their wits end Over the maddest and chaos, now the media is portraying trump supporters as if they showed up to a peace in rally and created a scene. But, by now everyone see them for who they are, and by that I mean the MSM.
BLM killed a white trump supporter.
An eye for an eye. Thus it begins.
How about you say what it is for once...the radical left Antifa and BLM are the OG protesters. It’s come to everyone is just totally tired of this. It’s been over three months and hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars and the abuse of innocent elderly
We live in frightening times!!!
And guess what. In Chicago we had 19 shot and 5 killed. Wanna take a guess at which 'bucket' you would classify them into? Go ahead. Ill wait.
Trump supporters are killing. Protect your families. The violentright RadicalRightWingTerrorists altreich are coming for you. They hate America
You can call the 'protesters' what they really are.
Glad to see you’re still publishing, wasn’t sure
Trump's America. He has unleashed his violent supporters on peaceful protestors and its only going to get worse. We must insist that Trump denounce the violence and stop flaming the hate and chaos in the streets.
After visiting Kenosha on Tuesday, what are the chances that realDonaldTrump Will also visit his deceased supporters' family in Portland? We're gonna say 0%. Trump doesn't care for his base.
An antifa terrorist shot a citizen dead on the street. Disgusting
Who was shot ? .... why didn’t you include that in the headline ?
The victim must be white because they didn’t mention his race
There was a Black man shot and killed too. But I guess the LA times is not going to report that?
Traitor trump and his cult is out to destroy America. Save America!!! No more far right terrorists
Antifa terrorists kill Trump supporter in cold blood
Who are the anarchists again? The ones with the guns shooting anyone in the streets who disagrees with them?
Trump supporters formed a caravan to invade Portland, to further instigate violence and chaos. Their aim is to start a race war. This is not the vision of America I'll be voting for.
He was a Patriot Prayer member and he maced some random person who then shot him, right wing media is gonna love this
😠
😮😮😮
Just casually headlining a picture of a dead body. 😬
TrumpsAmeriKKKa is a violent place.
Donald Trump's America.
This is TRUMPS AMERICA ! This is A DIVIDED AMERICA ! This is A VIOLENT AMERICA ! This is not THE AMERICA I WANT TO LIVE IN ! November 3rd , VOTE. . VOTE . TRUMP . OUT . NOW . The more he stays in power , the more dangerous he will get. .
His family should sue this news rag , the person who killed him the mayor, the governor, nancy , maxine, Chuck, Adam and everybody that praises this senseless killing
US voters to support Trump to free China Australians support Trump to free China
👀
Reallyyy The headline is “Trump supporter shot and killed peaceful protester in Portland” - trying to present balance when there is none is dishonest and a journalism FAIL.
Why can’t you say BLM kills a white man?
The left is violent
Shits about to go from bad to worse
I do not see any good coming from protesting. Continued Dialogue, policy changes, and common ground, yes. But not the protesting.
So a Anifta shot a far right guy!
These Trump folks will be at every protest trying to provoke people into a confrontation. Ignore them
Trump’s America!
fuck you LA Times.
Most deaths seem to come from young white maga men. Looks like we have a new terrorist group!
Here’s your BLM shooting a white Trump supporter for wearing attire.
What a stupid people
Stochastic terrorism created by realDonaldTrump the POTUS and egged on by the criminal leadership at TheJusticeDept TrumpTerrorists
'Merica? Yeah, you can have it. You're turning on each other, while Russia, North Korea, Iran laughs at you. Merica
And everybody in Trumplandia wonders why those of us in the real reality think Trumpers are racists? Every night non-Trumpers are killed by Trump's army of stupid racists. That might have something to do with why!
As TrumpTerrorists invaded the streets of Portland shooting at people.
kirkmurphy The Trump supporters drove through town and shot at people from their trucks, but sure, say 'clash'
garyonwater A sign of what's to come. Saddle up.
You forgot to say who killed who, but I think we know.
I WANT donald trump REMOVED FROM OFFICE, AND ARRESTED. I AM SO FED UP WITH HIS BULLSHIT. THIS IS WHAT HE WANTS. DESTRUCTION, AND MANY DEATHS.
First Trump’s Gestapo was in Portland and were driven out. This week Trumpster goons have killed two in Kenosha and one in Portland. Trump’s America!
What a stupid fucking headline.
BLM are an extreme Marxist violent group formed to overthrow all systems of a civil society. Marxists/commies. Now associated groups with the same goal.
Cowardly journalism from a pathetic rag
Does anyone else feel like realDonaldTrump has broken America?
TRUMPS PURGE is going down. Fires getting bigger, after the 17yr old, people have gotten bolder, no going back now, and he says BIDEN is the problem. I saw trump flags, riding through, where are the police? 600 cars no police? All in the prophecy, only good vs evil in the world.
Clash? gfy
Lol why is one supporters and one protesters aren’t they doing the same thing?
Usa is descending into civil war
'nazis from out of state carry out premeditated murder encouraged and abetted by mayor Ted Wheeler and Portland Police.' Fixed your headline to not spin for nazi vigilantes.
The New Civil War Has Arrived.
A Trump Supporter appears to have been killed by Antifa/BLM rioters. Terrible!
txsguy09 American spring Starts from Portland .
Stop your lies there is footage proving it has nothing to do with Trump supporter clashes. What a shame!
LA Times being ratioed here in the comments. Think you’re done feeding the mobs yet?
Misleading ass headline! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
another headline obscuring murder as a playful accident, neat
RadicalRight RightWingTerrorists
Again? Are you fucking kidding? He is starting a civil war.
holy mother of passive voice
MonsterGooder This is sad. My heart goes out to his loved ones. Doesn’t matter if he was a protestor, a trump supporter, or a person walking down the street.
Your journalism is a joke
fakenews. You guys are terrible at reporting news. It was a white man that died. A black suspect was seen running away from the scene. Unrelated to riots.
It's not a 'clash' if only one side is doing the shooting, the paintballing, and the macing. FFS, do better, bakas.
Should perhaps be a bit more specific
2nd time in a week a city Police Dept has allowed a gang to come into their city and completely escalate an already tense situation, which has now resulted in 3 deaths These “trump troops” haven’t helped in anyway, so why are they being allowed into these cities?
They are lucky a Tim McVeigh type person has not yet started targeting Protesters. That will be so sad. Hope and pray the Mayor's can get this under control. We need unity. God please heal America.
What an outrage lying media!
The shooting has nothing to do with the rally or BLM or anything .. video shows an altercation away from them...
Whoever wrote this garbage headline , needs to own it with their name highlighted in the tweet.
PortlandPolice needed 2 arrest the armed militia/trump's cult. They incited the violence. Pepper spray'g/paint ball'g, shoot'g into a crowd & running ppl over like they did was, of course, illegal. Yet police were no where, & I doubt they arrested 1 trumper. Now a person is dead
marideenow They didn’t CLASH. The Proud boys cam there to incite violence. Do your job LA TIMES !
we do not need another civil war.
Donald Trump is sending our country to the dogs
You mean 2 killed by a Trump supporter?
On the brink of a civil war
The answer to racism is unity in Jesus Christ.
They killed on every continent they’ve ever stepped a foot in. It’s in their DNA.
😮😮
As trump supporters fire paint ball rounds and live bullets along with bear spray from speeding cars. They shot at one of your reporters, but yeah “clashes”
The rest of the headline should read “....another murder by a Trump supporter”
Irresponsible headline from a mediocre news outlet.
