    Old news, if you read the details like I do. Another detail mentioned once in the media, then never repeated: His comrade Pappas lied when he said "Jay Bishop" had no gun, because a gun was found on his body.

    Just stopped by, read only 2 posts, both needed comment/correction. This thread would benefit from my presence, but I'm busy reading articles.

    These right-wing guys all look like thugs. Maybe their funder carefully selects them.

    ----------
    The media keeps saying that Pappas said the two were unarmed. Aside from the video of them with knives earlier in the day...

    If you read enough articles, you'll eventually find an article which gives a fact which the other articles hide.

    There are 2 videos. Dunlap was one of the two cameramen. He says that Danielson shot his bear spray, then Reinoehl wheeled and shot him. But the media has been telling us that it was the bullet which exploded the spray can. Did Danielson initiate the encounter? The media has been saying that Danielson was just minding his own business.

    Saying they are antifa is just them stating their opposition to fascism.

    This should be the default position of every American.

    Man, the defense of antifa on here is gross. They are a group, yes. No, it doesn’t simply mean “a person who is against facism”. That's precisely the tactic they use to gain traction. I don’t really give a shit what their dumb website says, that is how they attract more moderate people to sympathize with them. White supremacist groups do the same thing. They try to appear sound and logical in their little manifesto while they do dirty work behind the scenes.

    Fuck antifa, fuck their shitty website, fuck their twitter account that should’ve been banned long ago and FUCK all the sympathizers on here doing mental gymnastics to defend them. I hope their meeting place burns down like all the businesses that got torched. They are the facist piles of shit that pretend to be fighting in their LARPing adventures. They can all choke on a dick and die.

    You mean willing to get their asses kicked?

    I’ve yet to see an antifa wrist larger than the flagpole their struggling to carry.

    It would have been nice if the police hadn't executed Reinoehl... Then we could have had a trial and maybe gotten some more information.

    Huh? I've watched several videos of mass fights between the two groups. The Prayer Boys have to wear armament to avoid getting injured. Then the police politely escort them out, since they are vastly outnumbered.

    Danielson claimed to be there in a security group to protect his comrades. So obviously, they are getting hurt.

    As long as they protect the courthouse and do not whack citizens I'm ok with that.

    So, living thousands of miles away necessarily means I'd have absolutely no knowledge of the goings on in Portland and Oregon as a whole. Now that truly would be pathetic.
