You guys don't seem to get it so I'll rather bluntly state what is going on here. Republicans do this with impunity because police are biased, pro-republican actors for the most part and democratic politicians don't have the balls to do anything but feign outrage. If these were black lives matter protestors they would have been swiftly arrested and/or violently attacked by police.
QFT: Even in Metro PDX there were County Sheriff offers in Multnomah and Clackamas County supporting citizen armed road-blocks from Corbett to Sandy, Oregon and supporting and promoting the myth that "Antifa was behind the Forest Fires"....
Obviously not gonna interfere with VbM in Oregon, but we got folks with guns and pickups rolling around all parts of Oregon, including the "Proud Boy" rally a bit back, which caused the death of one of those guys in a small back alley / Sidestreet in downtown PDX...
Meanwhile in other parts of OR, we had top coppers taking a knee etc at the height of the recent BLM protests, so not gonna claim all coppers in Oregon support repression...
