Portland’s indigenous faction of Antifa militants toppled statues of Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln on Sunday, before vandalizing the Oregon Historical Society. The destruction was part of a “Day of Rage” promoted by the militants, who said that no cameras or livestreamers would be allowed. The extremists urged people who attended to wear all black. /snip for Tweet/ Using heavy chains, they pulled the statues down without any interference from city leaders or law enforcement. /snip for Tweet/ The leftists celebrated and cheered the destruction.One of the activists involved, Tracy Lynn Molina, posed for photos with the vandalized and destroyed Roosevelt statue.

Give them a chance and they will bring Portland to your doorstep. Time to take a stand.

Democratic mayors and governors are complicit in every moment of the destruction. That's the whole shebang right there. It could have been (will be) stopped right there. Local control hasn't been employed and until it is, there is no turning back; no stopping it. People will either hold their local governments accountable or it will spiral to the point of no return. I remain optimistic that the point of no return hasn't been reached, but that's only optimism. Time will tell.

Looks like private property is next on the agenda. Unless the DA’s in charge let it be known they will not prosecute citizens who use force to defend their property and or safety it will get real ugly real fast.

These criminals can operate only in democrat cities. Other places will not be so much fun. We are ready for them.

They are the militant activist branch of the Biden Harris campaign. Their mission is obvious. This shall not stand. Ten years in prison for all who participated.

Rabid dogs contribute more to the good of our society than these clowns. When do the good people of the northwest say enough is enough and put them down?

The “good people” of Portland? Last I heard their already liberal mayor was trailing a more leftist candidate in his bid for re-election! They don’t want it stopped! I heard one of the city leaders say in response to her opposition to bringing the rioting to an end, “People have to understand Portland is a very progressive city.”

So now the narrative being pushed is 'Militants", eh? Not BLM or anty-teefa? Those must be polling poorly. Same thing the Iranians did when they took our embassy staff hostage during the Jimma Carter malaise. First it was students, then eventually when nothing was done, it was their version of 'militants'.
They need to be slapped down so hard (including their enablers in the press and political office and their funders) that you'd have to dig down with heavy equipment for three days to to catch a whiff of them.

This was planned, even directed from inside the local government I'll bet.
They wanted the statues gone, and the museum shut down. Once this is over they'll commission new statues and hire a new museum staff.
Leftists hate history; it's an impediment to their agenda. To control the people you first cut away their heritage. Then you substitute a Marxist narrative.

These criminals are not going to stop until they're arrested and prosecuted, which has happened regarding destruction of federal monuments, statues and federal court houses, under limited federal police powers. If Democrats don't solve these problems, Congress needs to grant sufficient ADDITIONAL federal police powers to get the job done. If such federal police powers were currently in place, President Trump would have stopped these crimes. His hands are tied to tightly.

No need to "let Portland dies." Portland is already dead. And if there indeed are any "good Portlanders," they're really, really quiet and deathly afraid of speaking out, or they are buried underneath the burning rubbled and toppled statues of our American heritage.

Every day, all day long we see constant examples of Democrats tearing down and causing destruction while Conservatives build up and create opportunities, jobs, businesses, structures, cities, etc. Democrat cities and states shrink while Republican cities and states grow. Why isn't this obvious to the general population? I can't understand why polls aren't 99% for Trump.

Portland is lost. Only Trump could save it. He even offered, but they turned him down.

Nothing says rage like a middle aged woman with daddy issues, a black mask and bandanna and a shrill, cringe-producing voice screaming hatred at the top of her lungs. As always, the thimble-brained Leftists hold another tired old 1960’s era “Days of Rage” event because the words “day” and “rage” sort of rhyme and if two words can be made to form a rhyme no slogan is too stupid for Marxists. Their favorite rhyming words are “ho” and “go”, which, when put together, form the genesis of innumerable old chestnuts. Nobody can stay angry for longer than they’ve been alive but these people are giving it a try. Statues can be cleaned and recast but when a soul is diseased it’s very hard to repair. There is so much goodness and beauty in the world. What a waste of lives.

I hope there's enough video for DOJ to ID these Anarchists so they can be prosecuted and the 10 year prison sentence be applied.
My concern is the 10 years only applies to statues on Federal Property and these statues were on Municipal property.
I truly hope that Vigilantes, acting as 'Independent Operators', begin to take action against any and all Anarchists by any means possible!
Illegal? Yes. Effective? Yes. Very Effective..........

Good guys need to follow them home, put on the AntiFa uniform, and torch their homes and vehicles. I'd love to see a couple of those big, expensive BLM buses burning.

“Day of Rage”. Sounds like "Two Minutes Hate" in the book 1984.

In all this riot and destruction one city hasn't had any problems. Detroit. Early on, the mayor and police chief let it be known they weren't going to put up with riots and destroying property.

Ask any leftist and liberal Democrat politician or operative and they will falsely claim that the Portland riots are Trump’s fault. Unfortunately there are a lot of very low information people in the USA who believe such fantasies.

#4 is correct. They won't come to my small town in North Georgia. Throw a brick or molotov cocktail at somebody's house here and see what happens. Georgia has a stand your ground law plus castle doctrine and everybody I know has at least one firearm.

Always remember "People do what you let them" Do you see anybody stopping them ? They have no fear.
Law enforcement have no power or back up.
Follow the money. Could we see the mayor's bank account ?
