Rioters tore through Portland causing more than $500,000 worth of damage - but cops did NOTHING
2021-10-19
  • [Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] Portland was rocked by a violent, 100-person protest that caused $500,000 in damage

  • Police stood idle as rioters destroyed the city, citing a new law that prevents law enforcement from using means of crowd control like pepper spray, tear gas or incapacitating projectiles

  • Cops added they have not received full clarity on the bill's limits, so are following the most restrictive interpretation of it

  • Antifa rioters tore through the city following a memorial for an activist killed in October 2019, whose mother organized the protest and called it a 'night of rage and anger'
