Mayor of Portland, OR: Please Help Us Unmask Rioters
2021-04-26
[EpochTimes] Portland's mayor struck a new tone on Friday [4-23-2021] as he called for residents to help "unmask" people behind the continued violence in Oregon's largest city.

In his most urgent appeal yet, Mayor Ted Wheeler encouraged whoever has information about the self-described anarchists who are committing crimes in late-night riots to contact the police.
This is after over 200+ days of rioting

#17  Seems like it could be abused just like any other tip line.

#16  Would you like to be on a list of informants leaked to the media?

#15  Easy enough.
Knock'em down and pull on their face.

#14  This feckless mayor is a little late to the game. Unmasking the rioters shouldn't be a difficult task if you are really serious and not just posturing for politics. Let's go to the next steps with arrests and prosecutions and slammer time.

#13  ^Phone books. Do they still have phone books in police stations?

#12  Maybe I'm missing something but if you actually arrested a few rioters, and didn't let them go an hour later, you might be able to figure out who they are. In fact you might find they give up a few friends when threatened with taking the fall for hundreds of days of damage.

#11  Go ask the DA - he probably meets with them regularly to plan their next riot.

#10  "Just say no". Who gives a crap if Portland burns to the ground? It might be an improvement. The suburbs of Detroit haven't significantly noticed the "lack" of a city center, despite liberal whining about the ongoing death of the city for numerous decades.

#9  And when nobody plays along, its your fault they can't catch anyone. Brilliant.

The normalcy of riots, food rationing, electricity rationing, the removal of civic order, acceptance of violence, self defense is a health issue. Health issues as governable social issues. Anyone else starting to feel like a bowling pin?

#7  I would advise residents to tell the mayor to fuck off. It's obviously a ruse to get details of all those who report such crimes.

Some wakandan or secret antifa grunt in the establishment will be used to release addresses of all who reported on these terrorists and they will find themselves hunted.

#4  Portland Mey-or Boy's white: white as whey!
But Antifa aren't white: they're Woke-Ghey!
Ted's a most useful instrument
For in doxxing the innocent,
Where there's a (Triumph of) Will there's a Whey!

#3  ...why report?

Coffee stat!

#2  Ah, if the DA won't prosecute whey report? Unless you are building lists of those few Porlandians who want something close to civilization to be 'police' up later or be doxxed?

#1  More like 400+

Lil' Teddy's been "unmasked" -- as a lying POS weasel who was happy to let the rioters have their way while Trump was president. Changed his tune now that there's a Democrat on the WH
