Portland man charged with arson after allegedly setting fire to downtown courthouse

A Portland, Ore., man was charged in a criminal complaint Friday with allegedly throwing an explosive device at the Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse.

Authorities say security cameras caught 18-year-old Gabriel Agard-Berryhill throwing an “incendiary object” into the entrance of the building near midnight on July 28, causing an explosion inside the downtown courthouse.

“No legitimate protest message is advanced by throwing a large explosive device against a government building,” U.S. Attorney Billy J. Williams said Friday. “Mr. Agard-Berryhill’s actions could have gravely injured law enforcement officers positioned near the courthouse, other protesters standing nearby, or himself.”

That’s the idiot who’s grandmother bought him that nice vest so he could riot with protection on. Grandmother should be indicted also.

Yeah I saw that message. The Grandmother must be a major Leftist Liberal Idiot. Caps were especially needed there.

Maybe Grandma can bake him a nice cake (no file) for when she visits him in prison. That would be nice.

Hope he gets the book thrown at him.

The PEACEFUL little boy got caught up in the excitement of being at his first PEACEFUL civic action. So he tossed his PEACEFUL little firecracker that he found at the big evil courthouse.

Perhaps he will enjoy many PEACEFUL evenings in the loving embrace of his new friend, Ben Dover.

Iirc, Fox News said that there have been 442 arrests. Might be higher now, as that was a few days ago.

Grandma posted a review of the vest she had bought for him online. That’s how they ID’d the jackal.

Gabriel, meet your new cellmate for the next 10 years, Bubba Leroy Johnson.

He hates white boys, communists, and traitors, but he admires your butt.

Nah. Insurance will cover that. Hope she has a fire caused by junior messing with illegal explosives and incendiaries. I am guessing the TV advert will be "We didn't cover it"
