PORTLAND, Ore. -- The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Southwest Portland will be closed again on Thursday, citing security concerns as protests outside the building continue.
The office on Southwest Macadam Avenue was first closed on Wednesday. ICE spokeswoman Carissa Cutrell said appointments scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday have been canceled. Deportation officers will contact individuals to reschedule appointments.
"Normal operations will resume once security concerns have been addressed," she said.
On Wednesday, Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler said he drove by the protests and commended participants on what he said was a peaceful demonstration against an agency "that has not fully lived American values of inclusion."
"I want to be very clear that I do not want the Portland Police to be engaged or sucked into a conflict, particularly from a federal agency that I believe is on the wrong track," he said. "If they are looking for a bailout from this mayor, they are looking in the wrong place."

Send in the Marines, since Portland is in Rebellion against the U.S. Government
Federal police may have to be brought in to protect the installations. I expect to some of them firebombed.
Time for Martial Law to be declared in Portland.
Send in the Military to end the Insurrection.
Put them on busses and drop them off at Democrat politicians homes one family at a time. And I’m sure it would be easy to get the protestors’ address.
There’s a lot of felony in preventing a Federal Officer from performing their duty.
If they're stopping deportation hearings it's time to start cracking heads in conjunction with the "liberal" use of tear gas and pepper spray.
LOL!
We need more humor like this on FR
The folks that occupied a remote bird watching area in rural Oregon were charged with conspiring to prevent Federal workers from doing their jobs. Here, we get crickets from law enforcement.
