‘I Had No Choice': Antifa Supporter Linked To Portland Shooting Of Trump Supporter Breaks Silence
[DailyCaller] A self-identified Antifa supporter linked to the fatal shooting of a pro-Trump activist in Portland over the weekend broke his silence in a new interview, appearing to suggest the Trump supporter was killed in self-defense.

"I had no choice. I mean...I had a choice. I could have sat there and watched them kill a friend of mine of color. But I wasn’t going to do that," Michael Forest Reinoehl, 48, told VICE in an interview set to air Thursday night.

Reinoehl is seemingly admitting to playing a role in the fatal shooting Aaron Danielson, a supporter of the Patriot Prayer movement who died Saturday night after sustaining a gunshot wound to the chest. Patriot Prayer members took part in a pro-Trump caravan that ventured through Portland, where Black Lives Matter protesters had gathered.

There have been no reports that Danielson, who went by the name Jay Bishop, was armed or was threatening anyone when he was shot.

Video footage of the incident has been released but it does not clearly show what happened leading up to the shooting.

"You know, lots of lawyers suggest that I shouldn’t even be saying anything, but I feel it’s important that the world at least gets a little bit of what’s really going on," Reinoehl told VICE. (RELATED: Antifa Supporter Is Person Of Interest In Portland Shooting)

Reinoehl has not been arrested or charged in the case.

#5  The only tears that will be shed at your funeral might be those of your parents

Not likely, if what his sister says about this vermin is true. Stealing mom's dementia medication and bullying her to hand over what little savings she had, re-directing debt collectors to go after his siblings....

Funny how the NYT hagiography article ignores the sister's testimony and quotes this scumbag's fellow Antifa nutjobs - paints him as a "guardian angel," like a red St Francis bringing peace where there's enmity, hope where there's sorrow etc

Show me the weapon. If you do produce one, show me his DNA or fingerprints on it.

And exactly how did you have no choice but to get your thug ass killed when the feds came to arrest you? Keep in mind that they probably have video of it all.

The only tears that will be shed at your funeral might be those of your parents.
