Nearly 70% of the individuals arrested during the riots and unrest in Portland, which stretched from the end of May through early October, had their charges dismissed by the Multnomah County District Attorney’s office, according to data released Thursday. The Portland DA “released a new statistical dashboard that analyzes protest-related cases referred to his office by law enforcement for prosecutorial review and potential issuing,” the office announced on in a statement on Thursday, laying bare Multnomah County’s strategy in handling cases of individuals arrested during protests, demonstrations, riots, and unrest, referred to them by Portland’s Police Department.

Figured it would be 100%.
Probably released the hard core antifa, kept a few useful idiot types as cover.

DA's releasing all these offenders means no convictions for felony charges, thereby letting them buy a gun legally with the loot they have taken and sure enough, they become an armed insurgency protected by the leftist Democrats DA's. Just like Obozo wanted.

If ya can't defund the police - just make their efforts at law enforcement an ineffectual joke.

It's just too bad the cops don't give the same consideration to conservatives and right-wingers when they get caught in the crossfire with the leftists.

Apologies for the second post. My earlier post sounded more intelligent in my head. I was thinking of how the cops would routinely stand-down while the leftists rioted, etc; but, they would bust others who would merely try to defend themselves.

fishbone: The police are only following orders from their democrat bosses. Please don't blame them for bad policy decisions from above.

No taxpayer bailouts for the damage caused by intentional malfeasance such as this.

One of the first things taught in Criminal Justice in order to prevent crime you need to set an atmosphere of "certainty of punishment." Nothing else needs to said on why they experienced this and will again.

Why was this "catch and release" policy of the Democrats never raised as a question in either of the debates? This is a major policy difference in the two parties and needs to be put before the voters. The question isn't merely the rioting, but the purposeful refusal to punish criminals by the Democrats in charge!
And Harris in particular had even supported the organization that bails out such criminals. Is this what voters want in their next President?

You can thank George Soros for this. He bought and paid for many DA’s across the country. This old man is evil personified. He is a Bond villain come to life.

I guess all those overweight, white girls were too expensive to feed on a long-term basis.

'If we leverage the full force of the criminal justice system on individuals who are peacefully protesting and demanding to be heard, we will cause irreparable harm to them individually and to our society,” he said. “The prosecution of people exercising their rights to free speech and assembly in a non-violent manner takes away from the limited resources that we have to prosecute serious crimes and to assist crime victims.”
Is he saying that the police were actually arresting really peaceful protesters? Doesn't make sense.

According to Hot Air, it's 90 percent. It's one of the reasons why they keep going plus the Marxist media is silent now about it because Orange Man Bad removed his cough burka on the balcony of the WH living quarters, dozens of feet from the closest person. That's much worse than thousands of "peaceful" BLM and antifa rioters destroying cities.

I’m confused. If all these rioters are white supremacists then why is Democrat DA releasing white supremacists? Joe, Kamala please explain. Oh, that’s right we have to elect you to find out the answer.

Sue the DA. Sue the city of Portland. Hit them where it hurts. They have caused much grief and damage by siding with the rioters. The rioting would stop quickly if the people in authority did their jobs.

Poor Portland... the citizens are so screwed by their elected politicians.... the secret to discover is who paid these low lives to riot in the first place....Once WE find out who's in charge WE can take action....

Not just progressive folks. He admitted for the record he is buddies with some of the activists. So anyone with property or physical damage is just SOL thanks to him.

This is what Harris Falkner cut Newt Gingrich off in mid-sentence for the other day. He was trying to point out why Soros has been donating big money to local prosecutors in blue/sanctuary cites - so that they can prosecute innocent citizens for self defense and release domestic terrorists (oops peaceful protesters) who are trying to maim them, kill them or burn them out. Marie Harf (deep state refugee from the Obama era state department) jumped in with George Soros has no place in this conversation!! Falkner (or maybe the FOX hall monitor) cut Gingrich's feed.
Apparently the cost of fighting Soros is so high that even FOXnews wimped out??

Only a brain dead democrat would put their families, their children at risk not knowing where these animals will strike next. These people are so brainwashed its sickening. They don't even belong within a civilized society.

A Biden win may well result in the appointment of rogue DAs in most major cities. So dangerous perps will be back out on the mean streets in no time under Democrat rule. Defend yourself from these criminals and YOU will be arrested and indicted. Without law & order and a fair and effective justice system America is doomed
and it will be every American for him/herself. How many guns and boxes of ammo have been sold as of late
to law abiding citizens who need to protect themselves & families from the looming crime coming to cities?
How about LAWSUITS against those who appoint and fund rogue DAs?

Please, please, PLEASE stop calling them progressives. They are plain old fashioned liberals, Socialists, Communists that began in the early 1900's. As I used to say on the radio, President. Obama was not UN-American, he was ANTI-American.
