So the all powerful and clearly racist Multnomah County Republican Party was going to march in the parade.  The brave freedom fighters of antifa were not going to stand around and continue to let the GOP ruin western Oregon with their bashing of minorities (both of them!) and LGBTQIAers so they did the only thing they could think of and sent a letter warning that this injustice would not stand if they had anything to say about it.  So the organizers did the only thing they could, shut the whole thing down.

There should be a constitutional amendment banning Antifa. Bipartisanship!

Trying to imagine a Multnomah GOP meeting. Three dudes at a sports bar in Gresham, perhaps?

Or y'know, just lock them up with amending the constitution. That'd be preferable. But they would never do it because it nets them votes when they wreak havoc.

This is a fascinating consideration

Portland is almost 30% non-white. The answer is obvious.

Just as in Berkeley this violence is allowed to succeed because the authorities approve of it and want to allow it.
