Activists and Oregon officials urged people at Saturday night’s protest in Portland to re-center the focus on Black Lives Matter, three days after the Trump administration agreed to reduce the presence of federal agents in Oregon.
“The next thing we need you to do is vote like your life depends on it, because guess what, it does,” Hardesty said. Police stated that protesters proceeded to throw glass bottles and direct lasers at officers. Just before 10 p.m., Portland police declared an unlawful assembly and directed people to disperse or they may be subject to use of force or be arrested. Police could be seen charging, multiple times, at protesters in the area.
There is a difference between a peaceful protest and a riot. President Trump has repeatedly said he and his administration support the peaceful protests. What President Trump’s Department of Justice is fighting against is the rioting that has ended up in the tragic deaths!
ap you are a very trusted source but please look into this ..these people were leaving like the police told them to then the cops just attacked anyway
Activists? You mean, terrorists? We don't negotiate with terrorists, who's goal is to take down the country.
Do you ever read your headlines No protesting has been happening. Its riots and looting brought to you by BLM n antifa. Paid for by the democrats. Remember come november its good vs evil on election night. Dems want to destroy our country.
I think it is perfectly alright to support the cause. Please don’t start the violence and taunting; remember MLK who asked for change through peaceful protest which will be a lot more effective. Speak loudly about a change in voting and a change in training/values for the police.
You mean looting, burning, and beating random motorists is not a political statement?
Let the city burn!
Portland sucks ass, Portlandia is a thing for a reason. It’s a joke
This is not about BLM. It’s about hating capitalism and any authority. It’s about wanting the USA to be like Europe. Their statement to the mayor, “fk wheeler, he eats at chain restaurants”. Bunch of spoiled brats... oh, we can only eat local.. where’s my Gucci bag?
Calm down white ppl.take some vitamin d
Why? Biden is going to lose. Hes more of a liability to the safety of this country than Trump no matter who he chooses or how long he lives into it because the only way a woman will ever b president in this country is if she is VP & the president is impeached or dies/assassinated
🤣 wait, so oregon activists and officials are now admitting that what we've been seeing during late nights in portland isn't about blm? this is just now sinking into their thick skulls? talk about out of touch leadership, ha ha....
Marxism by any other name...
Unlawful assembly. Sounds familiar🤔
PortlandPolice are just nazis. That's the tweet.
Activists and officials. Trying to work together. Moving towards unity. Some of our other leaders can learn something from them.
Will receive Law & Order again.
General strike. Let's go. Shut it down.
No justice no peace do not negotiate with terrorists
Rioters. Get it right
Excellent news well done PD
They should go home. Their 'protesting' is only creating more 'racists'.
THEY BROKE OUT PRESS WINDOWS-& BEAT UP PEOPLE ON VIDEO_
And they’re rioting in residential neighborhoods.
