There's a parade every night, then the woke DA releases them without prosecuting the same day. Look through Andy Ngo's twitter, there are crap tons of mugshots

The mobs need to be put down wherever they are encountered and preferably by private individuals

I love abc's spin:

Right-wing protesters clash with anti-fascists as Portland march gets violent.

No "left wing"? I'm shocked.

No story about the old man with his head split open?

Then there's this:

".....Jessyca Jones, 29, an EMT worker from Salem, Oregon, told ABC News she was in Portland to protest right-wing marchers.

"I'm here to protest the alt right -- the ones that say they aren’t fascists or Nazis, but have proved themselves otherwise. And I like throwing milkshakes at bigots,” Jones said...."


Yup, the MSM is covering it alright. Like they always do.

Thanks for proving for us how utterly disinterested the media is in providing any meaningful coverage of the specific acts of violence that were plainly and clearly documented for all to see. If the perpetrators had been wearing MAGA hats, you and I and everyone else knows damn well the coverage would be wall-to-wall for days.
Great post and on the money.

A complete white washing.

Harmeet K. Dhillon, attorney of the conservative journalist, vows to sue Antifa “criminals” into oblivion and not even their “avocado toast stands” or “yoga studios” would be safe.
Love that!

And this isn't from some obscure fringe website, this is from Mother Jones -- one of the oldest and most respected left-wing political publications out there.
What's Rolling Stones take?

Not enough.

Many of them should have been shot when the first molotov got tossed and they tried to burn police officers alive in their station.
