I am getting damn tired with the racist statements from the leftists being tossed around like they are nothing.
I am getting angry. I am getting pissed!
And they are emboldened because no one questions their racist statements.
One of my “favorite words” is institutional racism. They use this term to play both sides of the race game — they claim that whites are racist (by nature) and at the same time they don’t single out any person or individual who may cry foul — it is the institution that is racist, not the person. I am calling BS.
seems like he was ranting about everything and everybody so how did the press/”interventionists” boil it down to ‘attack on muslims’ ?
Yep... these sanctimonious twits are always saying things like "we have to work harder to fight our inherent racism"... blah blah blah. I feel like responding "If you feel YOU'RE a racist, then by all means, try and improve YOURSELF". Of course by "we" they always mean everyone except for their own perfect selves.
I went to Portland a few months ago for business. I had gone once before about 15 years prior. The place looks like Mogadishu. It was disgusting and full of trash, human and otherwise. Downtown was filled with beggars and druggies and there was feces all over the place. It has turned in to another liberal paradise of crime, filth, and degeneration. BUT since this was a white man they are blaming it 100% on Trump.
Don’t know. But the bigger question for me would be, how did the 2 or 3 males, “Intervene” when this guy was talking/ranting? Who was the first person to get physically violent. Was it the ranter or was it the 3 males who, “Intervened”.
Well said! Glad to hear the truth from a fellow Freeper. I often wonder if we are alone but then I find out we are not.
This video of him ranting was the day before. But you would think there would be videos, especially since there are on mass transit.
They have yet to tell anyone what happened and have not explained how the 2 or 3 males, "intervened". Did they simply try to calm the suspect down and were stabbed, or did they jump on and assault this guy because they did not like what he was saying, and got stabbed for their trouble?
And where are the witness statements regarding what happened. Where are the witness statements regarding who became physical FIRST.
I’m sure you notice how the media and Dem politicians like Hillary Clinton are playing this like a “white supremacist” “neo-Nazi” “Islamophobic” and even “anti-Semitic” “hate” attack. That must be why so little information is coming out on the attack itself. It happened on the train, so there has to be video of how it all started.
I can’t agree, however, that the video from the day before has nothing to do with the incident itself. It shows the type of mind frame he was in and the sort of things he was saying, and it shows him having the intent to stab people.
So, the video shows him to be an unstable menace, who at any moment could have attacked people like he did. There were even plenty of warning signs that he was eventually going to commit a crime like this.
Given everything, it doesn’t seem like the three victims did anything but try to defend others and subdue him so he couldn’t hurt people. I’ve been trying to look into their backgrounds and haven’t found all that much.
From the little that’s out there, it seems the two younger ones were probably quite liberal. The one who survived wrote a poem last year against “Islamophobia” that he publicly read on the train system, according to news reports. I’ve also been trying to find out what the ethnic background of Taliesin Myrddin Namkai-Meche was. He seems to have been quite liberal too.
Rick Best, though, we know was older and an Army veteran, and when he ran for Clackamas County commissioner in 2014, he registered as a Republican. He might not have been a Trump Republican, but that makes it even more doubtful that he attacked the man first. But, we also know that Jeremy Christian was making “anti-everything” remarks and remarks against “religions” (according to the MSM reports that won’t say he was making anti-Christian remarks besides anti-Muslim and anti-Jew remarks). All in all, we need to have more of the evidence come out on what actually happened.

Look, personally I don’t care how the leftist spin this. And I’m simply not interested any anything except this incident, not what the suspect did in the past etc.
Btw, we already know the where the suspects head is, we already know he was ranting on the train during this incident. No need to look at dated video.
Does it not seem a bit odd, they show video from the day before of this guy simply ranting, but no video of a physical incident? The cops said they were reviewing the video from the train.
Where is the video?
You really don’t care how the left is trying to use this to further its agendas?
The thing about the video from the day before, it’s all we have right now, and it shows he wasn’t just “anti-Muslim.” I believe that’s very important.
Since it fell on the Friday before a holiday weekend, maybe the authorities are just going to be very slow on this right now. We’ll see in the next couple of days if more is said about the video. Given all the controversy, it should be released to the public soon. But it won’t have audio, of course.
I already know how the left spins everything. That's old news..
And why wouldn’t video have audio when the venue was a train full of people with cell phone cameras?
That’s not really the point, though. Caring is about calling them out on it.
Any video by the transit authority wouldn’t have audio.
And there’s no guarantee anyone took any video. Someone might have, but amazingly as it may seem today, there’s no guarantee of it. There was a man ranting in a threatening way on a bus I took a couple years ago, and the driver must have pushed a panic button because we stopped and a police officer got on and spoke to him. Surprisingly the man did get calmer after that. I’ve also worked in a place where we get disturbed and drunk people regularly causing incidents, and they often make threats. People typically don’t want to escalate things by pointing a camera at someone. And if the incident happens quickly, people tend to just react then to find safety then.
I can tell you from his name that Taliesin Myrddin Namkai-Meche that his ethnic background is Oregon Hippie. Pictures of the young man and his mother confirms this.
They will not be releasing the video that shows the murder of two people out of respect for the families of the deceased and because it is evidence that would taint the jury pool for any trial.
If it is released it will be truncated to not show the actual stabbings.
It happens all the time and the faces can easily be blurred or obscured. And releasing the video depicting the first person to get physical can be done the same way. Big media does it routinely.
There was another stabbing two weeks earlier in Oldtown that was completely caught on security cameras and none of that has been released either.
Black perp, gay victim yet is being described as completely random.
Something tells me that if they had video footage of the alleged white supremacist attack, they would be leaking it. I’m guessing the train cams were broken (again) and nobody got good cell phone footage.
