An Indiana man has been sentenced to ten years in prison for participating in a riot in Portland, Oregon in 2020 during which he threw Molotov cocktails at police officers.
Malik Muhammed pleaded guilty this week to 14 felony charges related to the Portland rioting and will have to pay $200,000 in restitution along with serving 10 years in prison, according to a statement from Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt.
“On September 5, 2020, Muhammed constructed multiple Molotov cocktails. He then brought those explosive devices, along with baseball bats, to a planned protest event that evening at the East Portland Police Precinct Building,” Schmidt’s statement said. “During the event, Muhammed handed out the bats and threw multiple explosive devices in the direction of police officers. One of those devices landed short and caused a fiery explosion which engulfed a fellow protester in flames, causing severe injuries to that person’s legs.”
Muhammed took part in three more violent protests and threw a lit Molotov cocktail at Portland police officers on two of the occasions including one incident where the “explosive device caused a fiery explosion which narrowly missed multiple officers and caught the clothing of one of the officers on fire.”

You can tell just by looking at the photo of this young man that he is misunderstood. /sarc
“I’m actually surprised that the bomb thrower was sent to prison and not acquitted.”
We read only what the leftist liars in the press want us to read. When Obuma sent one of his big chief BLM goons down south to start a riot, he got arrested with an attempted murder charge under the anti-klan laws and got 10-15 in state prison. It’s one reason why you don’t see the racist BLM down south causing mischief.
But you’ll never read about it in the propaganda press because they don’t want their useful idiots to know they could be sent to prison or worse.
We really are dealing with idiots in the weenie deep state.
One down, prolly at least 1000 more.
