Here's how federal agents in Portland treated a Vietnam vet.

A Vietnam veteran took a nozzle-full of pepper spray right to the face as he confronted federal officers in riot gear who've now taken to the streets of Portland.peacefully confronting the authorities -- some of whom are said to be Homeland Security Border Patrol agents recently deployed by the White House.

Mike is telling them about his service in 'Nam, where he says he was a medic ... and where Americans committed atrocities against the Vietnamese people, something he says the agents and their generation know nothing about. He was keeping his distance and being peaceful -- simply voicing his opinion to the squad in front of him. Not being threatening at all.

And yet, that didn't stop one of the agents from pepper spraying him right in his face, point-blank and walking off like nothing happened. It went down almost like a hit of sorts. Mike retreated -- clearly injured by the spray, which was all over his face and eyes -- but he kept up his rant, continuing to get his message across as the officers shipped out. We gotta say for someone who just got a dose of that in their eyeballs, the dude stood tough.

Why not look these are Antifa terrorists they deserve it until they go away and quit trying to with Marktz communist hatred and destroying capitalism, constitution, USA, and our Police, and life as we know it ? You go police

Veterans Lives Matter

Walked off like nothing happened. This is why I hate the police. I’d love to pepper spray the POS cop and walk away.

Solution: Don't join a riot and aggressively approach law enforcement officers and you'll be just fine. Notice how this kind of thing never happens to law abiding citizens!

so nice of you to catch up with some news. Let me fill you in- rioters are coming each evening, destroying property, attempting to injure officers, shooting over explosives and fireworks. When police FINALLY emerge to push the crowd back, they all act like victims.

Wow

This is disgusting.....

TMZ is alt left

Good

Yeah. They don't care who they assault. But simply wearing a hat and sweater that have Navy written on them does not automatically identify you as a veteran. ANYBODY can wear that shit...they sell it at Wal-Mart.🤷🏼

The Feds. Officers are not above the Law, if they show up in Philly the Mayor and Governor will have the Legal Authority to arrest them!

He was expressing his right of freedom of speech and what attacked for it. If anyone is defending the federal agents are against the very rights you deem to be in support of. In other words, a hypocrite.

Hopefully it was John Kerry

Vet or not if you have crossed their line then you get the spray......

Now....was that called....for.....Very...Crazy out here....!!!...Shaking my head.....!!!!

Good

TMZ is garage biased propaganda

If it was a pro gun rally we'd have waves of armed camo shirts out there. But if it was a pro gun rally they'd be handled with kid gloves and even be able to aim their weapons at them without a word said against them.

Maybe he should back the f up

You mean violent rioter who refused to follow police orders was pepper sprayed in the face? Because that's the truth. I know the word truth scares you because your only hope is fear / lies.

Meanwhile, the vast majority of Vietnam Veterans support the Federal Officers and the job they are doing and not the rioters in Portland. So shove it with your biased reporting.

As he was rioting...

Being a veteran doesn’t excuse you from also being rioter trash.

Show the other side of the story smfh

That’s what happens when you’re in the middle of a riot. Is that the same guy who basically admitted to war crimes in Vietnam?

So he is a self proclaimed murderer?

Well well well...... That's American way of hospitality..... Right?

If he's in a car trying to cross a bridge he needs to turnaround cause some white kid wants to inconvenience him.

Is this as real as the 'Wall-of-Moms' which were found to be paid protestors in another city as most of them not mothers of any children. In addition, they may paid a homeless vet to use him in the front-line knowing the outcome just for the purpose of their optics sympathy.

Well if you’re rioting and destroying a federal building, it doesn’t matter; age, race, service record, etc, etc.. don’t put you’re self in bad situations, the military teaches recruits this. LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder BackTheBlue BackFedAgents

Given training and life experience, you’d think a vet would know better.

Hey Gossip mongers...where is your story on Bernell Trammell

They didn’t spray the veteran for no reason what’s whole story

Proof he was a vet and not lying about it, like many other stolen valor types?

Trump's SS and Brown Shirts😡

Way to America let’s turn on our own

😂😂😂

HOLY SHIT!!

You spelled 'Communist Veteran' incorrectly...

Y'all missed a bit of the story

why don’t you go back too writting which star has lost weight or gotten a nose job and stop spreading your political agenda of BS.

I'm a Warzone veteran.

Slickwolfy What’s the other half of the story

If he served during Vietnam not only is he a Vet but he's like 70. These police just don't give a f***.

We only care or call then veterans when they 'protest' Cops, feds, National Guard, Veterans ... I thought we were defunding them? Or nah?

He’s been through much worst. He’ll be fine and back out there setting streets on fire in no time.

Oops, looks like Black Lives Matter movement has allowed its agenda to be sidelined , now disguised as the 'citizens marching to protest illegal federal military law enforcement intervention during citizen protests'.

Portland: Big protest crowds again over US agents' presenceThousands of people gathered in Portland, Oregon, for another night of protests Saturday as demonstrations over George Floyd’s killing and the presence of federal agents sent by President Donald Trump showed no signs of abating. Riots you mean? Nothing to do with George Floyd, stop using his name to explain why WHITE far left anarchists are trying to burn down federal buildings Lol this has nothing to with George Floyd’s killing. It has everything to do with a putrid hatred of America and a romantic love for Marxism.
