“Portland: where NOT to live or visit.”

Portland makes every other West Cost City look sane. For Berkeley, CA to get worse than it is, it would need to take lessons from Portland. And the end of the day, the sane parts of the country are going to have to erect walls around all our major cities in order to live peaceful lives.

And now that I think of it, it’s pretty interesting from a game theory point of view. The police are probably getting political pressure to arrest the driver, so they say “OK we’ll arrest him as soon as we get some statements from witnesses and victims”.

From the video it would appear that any witnesses are also perpetrators, so they’re not going to risk revealing their identities. Case closed.

They should just replaced the Portland Police force with antifa activists. After all, cops are fascists and guns are evil. So why not have anti-fascists armed with batons and tire irons to protect the citizens against “hate”?

Things the driver’s lawyer needs to say:

The big guy at the intersection was threatening to beat my client.

My client feared that he might be beaten or killed if he went in the direction the big guy, who was threatening to beat him, told him to go, so he went straight instead.

When the other guy stepped in front of my client’s car, to stop him, he thought the big guy at the intersection, who was threatening to beat him, was going to catch up with him, so he had to continue, because he feared he would be beaten or killed.

He had the right to stomp on the accelerator and get the hell out of there. If some of the attackers were flattened that would have been 100% justified.

Right. These were emergency actions during a riot.

The Left Coast has been encouraging pedestrians to block traffic since the 80s with stupid laws. It’s their mess.

But comparing this with Grim for a moment.

And being very serious.

Remember when a bunch of quasi-zombies blocked Monroe at the dockyard storage facility? He had to plow through the crowd. It was a moral dilemna. And there was only one logical thing to do.

I’ll bet when one of those cops get whacked by these freaks in Portland, they are going to expect us to boo hoo for them.

They better think again.

We support LAW ENFORCEMENT. if you ain’t doing that, then you are working some other profession.

“Always count on the police to come down on the side of the fascists, never on the side of those trying to secure their freedom. Has it ever been any other way?”

Cops are just the street-muscle for their filthy democrat politician masters. No morals, no soul...just following orders.

Fat whities from Portland apparently dislike little whities from North Carolina. What, was he afraid somebody was going to steal his taco plate or something?

Fat whities from Portland are also very concerned about anybody else blocking the intersection. Only fat whities from Portland are allowed to do that.
