Chaos erupted in Portland for a 79th consecutive night on Friday after police declared an unlawful assembly during a peaceful demonstration and stormed a protester shield line, beating people with batons. About 300 protesters had gathered in the city's Peninsula Park around 9pm for a peaceful march across North Portland that was expected to end at the Police Association building on N Lombard Street.(Snip) Activists standing on the frontline held up their handmade wooden shields, emblazoned with the Black Lives Matter logo of a raised fist. Others in the crowd were heard chanting as one man played the drums.

A real shame that the police won't use serious force, and that even if the arrest people, no charges filed, release immediately. Looks like the only punishment that the antifa thugs will get is whatever they get during arrest. Seems like maybe some more generous application of the billy clubs should be started. Antifa thugs should wake up really unhappy about what happened to them the day before, maybe some trouble walking and using an arm. Something to remember the cops by, since there is no other punishment.

It begins. Hopefully not too late. Because these people have become emboldened and violence has increasingly become necessary to end all of this.

Let's hope this violence continues to be isolated in blue cities with the usual inept Dem leaders. We don't expect it to bleed into rural or small-town areas. The cops in my little town will not put up with it. Toss a Molotov cocktail here and you will do hard time in our state resort in Reidsville, GA.

Any mature person with a reasonable degree of common sense realized that the only way this is going to stop is to use superior force against these anarchists. Appeasement and accommodation only puts off what is inevitable. But, we are dealing with democrat "leadership" in these cities, so the expectancy of "a reasonable degree of common sense" is just not in the cards.

The right to protest has legitimate limits. Did these "protestors" have a permit to block traffic on a public street, thus infringing on the rights of others to use public property?
What part of "unlawful assembly" does the reporter not understand? When an assembly is declared unlawful and people are ordered to disperse, it justifies actions to shut down the assembly. Pretty straightforward to anyone wishing to follow the rule of law.

Truly, who cares. These people have voted for this time and time again. It's what they want. Let them enjoy the fruits of their desires.

After 79 days, the only smoke that should be coming from police is gun smoke.

Thank you! Finally someone addresses the fact that peaceful public assembly requires a PERMIT!!
The technique used by America's biggest fraud, M.L. King, Jr. was to get a locale whipped up about a march, and when local authorities begged him to take out a permit, he'd ignore them. The authorities at the time were required to send in police in riot gear to protect life and property. King would put women and children in the front of the march for good optics, while black thugs rows back threw bottles and bricks at the police in order to agitate and instigate clubbing of the "innocent" for the assembled TV news crews. Sound familiar? All the above we're seeing from BLM are a rehash of the King/Black Panther marches of the "turbulent 60's." There's nothing new under the Communist sun.

Daily Mail calls it a 'peaceful' protest. They wouldn't be saying that if the 'protestors' were trashing their property.

The Antifa and Black Lives Matter movements have been fraudulently calling President Trump Hitler and a Nazi and equating him with the Nazi Gestapo of the 1933 to 1945 Nazi era in Germany. You can bet it that if that were true and Trump was the Gestapo, that the combined Antifa-Black Lives Matter “peaceful protests” in Portland and Seattle would have lasted just a couple of nights with all the so-called “Peaceful Protestors” trying to burn down the Federal Buildings and Courthouse ending up dead after a flurry of machine gun fire entered their ranks. Clearly the Chinese Communists reaction would be a lot more subtle as all the “Peaceful Protestors” were led away never to be seen again, and ending up an involuntary organ donors. You can bet that neither the Nazis or the Chinese Communists would put up with all the anarchy that has been taking place in Portland and Seattle.

The Soy Boys better stay out of my town! We will be pouring out of our homes to assist the police! And our police know it, because we tell them every time we interact!

End-stage metastatic Marxism on display for all to see. "Tabitha Poppins," a man dressed as a slovenly woman, bangs a drum while Peaceful Protestors engage in street warfare against the police and society in general, while also wasting an enormous amount of taxpayer dollars. Will this play in Peoria?
