we've been saying this for how long now? These riots are neo-Marxists using Black people for their political gain, as is BLM Org which wants to destroy families when single parent households are the biggest contributor to misery in the Black community
“It’s almost as though the African American community has become forgotten in large part, and the people who have now taken center stage may not be aware of their own privilege in directing this movement into something that was not intended," Jackson said. "And there is the real fear that this is going to have a backlash to not only how people look at the Black Lives Matter movement but how they look at Portland.”

Agreed. Look at something that rarely happens like unarmed blacks dying at the hands of cops. About 15-20 a year and most of those are attacking the cop. But don't look at the reason why children are not being raised properly and the fact that children from single parent homes have it much tougher in life and wont succeed as well as children raised in 2 parent families.
The supporters of BLM are some of the biggest scumbags in the world. Lying about police being racist while shirking their duties as adults and abandoning their children. Nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with being raised properly.
It is not how they vote, it is what they allow to happen.
Cities that are allowed by their "leaders" to riot and burn for weeks on end, whom also selectively enforce only favored law (definition= Anarcho tyranny) should have to pay for their own willful decisions down the road.
That is true justice.
Minnesota just informed it's citizens that everybody in the state gets to pitch in on the butcher's bill for the week of anarchy that was allowed in Minneapolis, because the fed govt rightfully told Minnesota to deal with their own mess.
It is day 54 right now for your neighboring city full of idiots. The bill is mounting. Get your checkbook out.
Wow...its almost like Portland is overwhelmingly white. And I dunno, maybe the federal goons tear gassing innocent people has created a problem larger then just the one.
I have a friend in Portland who said that protesters grew ten times the number due to objection to Federal Troops being there.
I’m libertarian. I don’t have a problem with left-wing extremists burning down the Federal government. I’m just surprised liberals are down with it. Strange days . . . .

Thomas Jefferson? The man who inherited 175 slaves and went onto to purchase
an additional dozen slaves? That Thomas Jefferson? Liberalism...............how daring!
10 times the amount of people willfully destroying their own city.
Simply brilliant.
And who are a significant minority of those protesting legally, but they are all being gassed, and utterly innocent folks are getting beaten with batons and pepper sprayed.
Simply brilliant is throwing gas on a fire that was fizzling out.

No need for tear gas if the lily white lefty idiots hadn't been rioting, vandalizing, burning, assaulting, etc. No riot = no tear gas. Can we make it any simpler so you can somehow understand?
What we are seeing is an ideological war between two white factions with blacks and other minorities being used as shock troops by one of those factions against the other.

Irrelevant, even if true. The rioters do not get to decide whether federal agencies have the jurisdiction to protect federal buildings or not. If they choose to be triggered by their presence, that's on the rioters themselves.
