Multnomah County Republican Party leaders stated.."The rise of the Nazi Party teaches that the road to fascism begins with armed gangs of thugs using violence to shut down opposing points of view. The question now is whether the City of Portland will be complicit in such conduct.

NAZIS is exactly who these ANTIFA thugs are.

It's way past time that this group is declared terrorists and prosecuted/jailed.

This parade is in its 111th year I believe...say hello to your 3rd world America, Portland.

Why are these cowards not standing up to these punks. They showed up to our Trump rally and it was amazing how tiny they were. Why back down?

I would suspect that the Portland police would have had stand-down orders issued from the Mayors office, just like in Berkeley last week.

Portland leadership is complicit in the violence.

True. When this country was less diverse, we could have parades and carnivals and festivals.

The parade was an American celebration

Portland is not America

Agreed.
June Rose Festival is much bigger and in a much better part of town.
I was in Portland during the woman protest.

It was shocking how big it was.
Glad I left Portland

I’m really surprised they haven’t blamed right wingers for the threats.

"... hundreds of people rushing into the parade to "drag and push those people out."
This is not the time to cower and wimp out.
It's time (passed time actually) for the National Guard to join the parade with fixed bayonets and full magazines.

I agree, however the Governor, who has this responsibility, is a open and proud ultra-leftist lesbian; ain't going to happen.

Because the limp-member Democrats running Portland are not going to allow their cops to stand-up to them.

Shot or hanged works for me.
