Quoted: The Portland Mayor is an Antifa supporter. He has made it clear that Portland PD is to not touch Antifa. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: I'm not sure why Portland won't arrest these guys themeselves. When this whole stupid thing started, we had a bunch of these DSA types in Phoenix attacking the Phoenix PD HQ. For the first two nights Phoenix played the disperse 'em with gas and projectiles but it didn't work, that was fun. The idiots would disperse and then come back. On the third and forth nigh the PD made about 500 arrests. That stopped the DSA/Antifa shenigans. We've had rallies, marches and vigils since then, but nothing illegal and window breakers or fireworks throwers. You just have to squelch it, its not even a little bit hard. Mayor Wheeler is staunchly supporting no ICE or deportations of illegals. ANTIFA attacks Federal Bldg which houses Homeland Security, therefore Wheeler is giddy school girl. He is pandering to the large illegal, DACA and sympathizer population here. We have a lot of agriculture in Oregon so a large Hispanic population. Mostly lawn sod, landscape product, nurseries and then mixed crops like wheat, hops, Blueberries, Corn, rhubarb, hazelnut, and vineyards. |

All the libs on FB in my area are saying the same thing. "Its all trumps fault" Lol |

Quoted: Ok, I await what federal crimes he is charged with eagerly. You seem upset. That’s terribly sad. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: I don’t care what he was wearing. He could be naked as far as I give a shit. However, legally, does CBP have the authority to arrest American citizens in an American city? I would say they sure as shit do if the suspect was or has committed a crime for which the CBP has authority within the 100-mile zone. So quickly are conclusions drawn, that they were acting unlawfully, while wearing the uniform of their agency, just because we dont like the optics on a video clip being propagandized? Fuck optics, this isnt a game. https://www.aclu.org/sites/default/files/field_image/borderzonefeatured.jpg Ok, I await what federal crimes he is charged with eagerly. You seem upset. That’s terribly sad. And you live in Texas. Goddamn. Texas' cancer is growing. |

Quoted: No, it just enables this behavior knowing there are no repercussions. Cities effected should have had voters demanding city councils address these issues. If not recall them and elect those that will. View Quote We just had our primary... Well, here, just take a look at the options available. And keep in mind that only the most radical lefties got any appreciable number of votes. The crazies filling the ballot https://multco.us/elections/may-2020-primary-election-voters-pamphlet-candidates And the results https://results.oregonvotes.gov/ResultsSW.aspx?type=CTYALL&cty=26&map=CTY And yes, the mayoral runoff in november will be between useless ted(49% in the primary) and crazy susan "the antifa mayor" who's campaign page's first policy headline is climate justice(24% in the primary). |

BORTAC is up there with HRT... guys I met in WV were prior SF, NSW, and Rangers with lots of real world experience on the military side and interesting TDYs abroad on the FLEO side.
They're doing God's work rolling up commies. |

Quoted: I happen to know quite a few CBP/FPS guys. They typically don’t fuck around. All the FPS guys I know are veterans. A lot of them combat vets and special forces types. View Quote In my AOR alot of the FPS folks are low speed, high drag. I have never come across a FPS police officer around Bolling (federal building) who was former special forces or anything close. Not saying they aren't out there... |
|
Quoted: While they may be going after agitators and the like, I still have an issue with this. I don't believe non-discript tactically clad personnel should be hopping out of unmarked SUVs and cuffing people on the streets. If they are worth arresting, send individually identifiable officers in typical uniforms or at least bearing agency and officer name and utilizing marked units. View Quote Communists / marxists aren't people Or do you want the communist insurgents to get away, by broadcasting who’s coming? |

View Quote That worked in PHX because the Chief of PHX PD was allowed to do her job without being hamstrung by the PHX mayor. And she also had the support of the Governor of AZ, who called in the Arizona DPS (state police) to back up PHX PD in case shit got heavy. In the end, the way things were handled in PHX was almost textbook. |

Quoted: That was textbook, picking up a confidential informant/asset retrieval. The undercover did and said all the right things to keep the situation calm for a quick and painless extraction. YMMV View Quote Thanks, this line of thought never entered my mind. The guys had dhs patches, not unidentified. I would suspect that anyone ever involved in that, could see what it was. Those of us who have never been in law enforcement or intelligence, got a video and a narrative from an ignorant protestor. Occam's razor applies. |

Quoted: Very true, but he looked like he was playing along.

He didn’t try to get away, didn’t resist, didn’t give his name. A lot of people that are taken into custody don't resist. Very true, but he looked like he was playing along. I could be wrong, but I’m thinking that was a UC pickup If he was UC, he would have put on a show of defiance. |

Quoted: Once you're a terrorist all bets are off in terms of American civilities. View Quote Ditto. No law requires uniforms for federal officers. Terrorists are open season. You see them you arrest them. If they resist they are gonna loose and they don't get a choice how. That's what I think about evil maggots. |

Quoted: I cannot agree. This slope is demonstrably too slippery for a free nation. View Quote The only demonstrably slippery slope is the one the terrorists chose. It is a slope with a dead end. There is no law requiring arresting officers to be dressed in their very pretty blues or serve notice they are about to be arrested with a singing telegram. Terrorists don't follow rules and you know it. These officers are arresting very dangerous people and have every right to be prepared for the worst when they are putting their lives on the line. That said I oppose the militarization of police when dealing with the general public. However, these terrorists have crossed the line. They are not the run of the mill crooks. They are threatening our nation, our Constitution and our freedom. That is why I call them terrorists and will call them nothing else. |

View Quote So do you think someone on the left is going to make a post about this in 5-10 years down the line when someone questions the government's tactics in dealing with "right wing terrorists"? Yeah, I get it. Some people are being tards, how they're being dealt with may or may not be appropriate. That doesn't mean we shouldn't be alarmed at law enforcement all kitted up like the military. The part many of you aren't getting is be careful what you cheer for, because you might be next election cycle's "extremists", the fact that's missed is ironic given the MSM's constant attempts to cast us as such. Too many here want "the right" to win no matter the cost, and act like petulant children when called on it. |

Meh....I'm going with rolling up on an asset or UC.
No cuffs, no pat down, no reading of rights....that does not pass the sniff test. Makes for a good show. Now, according to this.....it was legit, but he was let go right away. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/07/17/portland-protests-federal-arrests/ Regardless of what I think of Antifa and all the "protesters", I'm not down with people getting snatched off the street. With that said, the police force needs to be allowed to do their job properly. Accepting this now means that you can't bitch later if the tables are ever turned. |

For those who have a problem with this, where else in the world would you get a month's worth of warnings for burning buildings down?
