The van didn't try to plow into a crowd. The Proud Boys attacked every occupied vehicle in the abandoned KMart parking lot. There were only two. Who do you think got a free pass .... besides the Portland Proud Boys? Trump really broke you - heal yourself. Good advice, now take it.

Eric, Not picking sides - they should all be arrested I am absolutely appalled at the mayor of Portland, Ted Wheeler, and the way he has mishandled these riots. Like I told Antifamar, Portland used to be a safe place. Riots were virtually non-existent, and people could walk anywhere they wanted with little fear of violent crime. The worst I ever experienced while I was living there was a break-in, where some guy punched the lock on my car door and took my stereo. (Luckily for me, he didn't open the trunk and take my golf clubs as well.) Now Portland is ground zero for Antifa anarchy. And all these clashes between Antifa and the Proud Boys are being allowed by the mayor, who has told the police there to take a "hands off" approach. I kid you not. Meanwhile, gun violence in Portland is at an all time high. Of course, the mayor is trying desperately to find "creative" ways to deal with it other than the most obvious solution, which is to increase funding for the police. I'm glad I don't live in Portland anymore. (Yes, I know, San Francisco and Oakland aren't that much better, but at least I live far enough away from those two s--tholes.) Tenchusatsu
