Far-left activists vandalized buildings and clashed with police in the Pacific Northwest on Jan. 20, voicing their opposition to the government, law enforcement, and the freshly sworn-in President Joe Biden, with some carrying signs reading, “We are ungovernable.”
In Portland, black-clad activists with their faces covered broke windows and the glass door at the Democratic Party of Oregon business office, spray-painting an anarchist symbol over the party sign, video posted on social media showed. Some of them tipped over garbage containers and lit the contents on fire, according to reports.
“We don’t want Biden. We want revenge for police murders, imperialist wars, and fascist massacres,” read a banner they marched under, while others carried a banner saying, “We are not governable,” which was dotted with anarchy symbols.
Portland Police confronted a crowd that gathered outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement building near downtown, with some in the crowd later burning a flag in the street.
According to KATU, the protest was billed as a demonstration against the Biden inauguration and law enforcement. At one point, demonstrators were approached by Portland Police officers on bicycles, with some people in the group taking an officer’s bike and throwing objects at retreating police.
Eight people were arrested in Portland on charges that include rioting and reckless burning.
In Seattle, Antifa activists marched into the iconic Pike Place Market to smash up property, with video from the scene showing broken windows in a Starbucks. A group of black-clad activists marched along the street, kicking over garbage containers, carrying a tattered American flag with the anarchy sign spray-painted on it.
Some spray-painted buildings with an anarchist symbol and smashed windows, including at the William Kenzo Nakamura Courthouse, a federal building, according to KOMO.
“No Cops, Prisons, Borders, Presidents,” said one banner that they marched under, according to The New York Times.
Police announced that two people were arrested during the unrest, one for property damage and another for assault.
Officers made a third arrest later in the evening after the glass storefront was shattered at the Starbucks in Pike Place Market, according to KOMO.
Seattle and Portland have been the scene of unrest for months, with a mix of protesters—including anarchists, Antifa, and other far-left groups, as well as civil rights activists—voicing various grievances and sometimes engaging in violence, damaging property, and clashing with police.
GOD is preparing the World for judgement
both of these states have national guard units, activate them ”demand your governor do so! also bring in water cannons… great to control rioters , also in the area to put out fires antifa not the only ones to make demands! city & state authorities shall be accountable to protect & serve!!!
“We Are Ungovernable!”? Really? These pasty-faced, snot-nosed video gamers coming out of their basements to cause death & destruction ARE governable after all- it just involves adding some lead to their diet. Terrorists deserve nothing more.
Joe will not do anything about these defiant criminals. He does not have the backbone to prove he is the president. He has to wait until he is told what to say, what to do, what to sign and where to go and what to think. His mind is so weak and shot that he is virtually useless.
Watching nightly news this week & had telephone videos of these thugs walking down street in Portand and Seattle & breaking out windows with pipe or similar club. Dressed in black w/masks and assumed they are the ones shooting video & sending to TV news stations. Some arrested are in early 20’s ???How can these people claim to be Americans?
Great idea open border. Can’t go see Grandma for Christmas, but we can allow any, and all to come in to go as they please. Who’s in charge here? Oh ya puppet Joe.
Maybe the new vice-president will arrange for the taxpayers to pay for the bail of those arrested. That will solve the problem….not!!
That was in my estimation planed to disrupt the debate of the electors, got the job done! Not what we needed but did show us just what rino’s our leaders in both houses are!
Your comments are most uncalled for on and adult site, just go away.
Nothing Ever happens to the bad behavior !! Why keep showing us ????
Here you go sleepy Joe, oh you don’t have an answer yet??
Thought either in your 47 years of failure you’ve screwed this up once before, or you can send your vp who aligns with this ilk to have a talk??
Weak,pathetic and once again allow lawlessness!
So ironic how it’s ok until it comes to washington dc – hypocrites!
agreed
Good case for reopening Alcatraz!
I believe that Biden’s former boss Barack,the community organizer, Obama is behind all of this hate. He didn’t only want to destroy President Trump his mission is the destruction of America. Now, with a weak, hapless president in place and a communist right behind, him the leftist hatred and terrorism can continue uninterrupted.
The head enemy is Satan. He has a lot of minions. He wants 1 world government, as he thinks he will be able to retain the earth. God has other plans, and they are spelled out throughout the bible, and mostly in the book of Revelation. You may need a good expositor to understand it. Anyway, from predictions that have already come true, the time is coming closer, God calls Satan the lawless one, and it seems he has a lot of followers. These verses describe the behavior of people in the last days. (2nd Timothy chapter 3 verses 1-50) People like these have always been around, but never in the numbers as they are now.
Antifa & BLM should be labeled as domestic terrorists and treated as such! That will send their snowflake followers back to their Personal Biden Bunker (Mom’s basement) and allow the really bad ones to be dealt with. I’m going to enjoy watching this blow up in Biden’s face! It has to get ugly on many levels for the brainwashed to realize it WASN’T Trump causing the problems and violence! That’s the only hope for 2022, if there’s violence from the right, it will play right into their narrative!
Wait until chinajoe empties all the prisons, THATS WHEN THE REAL DESTRUCTION BEGINS, blm and antifa and the rest of the leftist groups HAVE NO POLITICS, they live for violence, thier brains are so warped by computer games they can’t tell the difference between fantasy and reality, they think they are “role playing” a game, they have tasted blood and they want more, the socialist/ dems have played a dangerous game and it WILL blow up in thier stupid faces, they won’t be able to control them.
The militants of Marxism do not respect the Democrats. They don’t respect Americans. If they get into trouble, they know legally nothing will happen to them. They are a protected class now.
The democrats instigated and encouraged the violence for months because they could use it against Trump. I an going to enjoy watching the democrats get their ass handed to them as the violence continues to escalate. Until the American people find their moral courage and stand up against the unlawful behavior it’s only going to get worse. Donald Trump was the closest thing we’ve had in generations to a strong leader and that is a lot of the problem. It’s a lack of leadership and there is no such animal in the democrat party. They are like vermin and only strong in overwhelming numbers.
Those rioters should be placing their energies in a constructive way instead of becoming the problem.
Yeah, They need to let Soros in. Probably won/t last long.
The genie is out of the bottle, thank you democrats!
“Seattle and Portland have been the scene of unrest for months, with a mix of protesters—including anarchists, Antifa, and other far-left groups, as well as civil rights activists—voicing various grievances and sometimes engaging in violence, damaging property, and clashing with police.” SOMETIMES engaging in violence? Like whenever they’re awake?
Amazing how much damage evidently only one or two people made! I do not buy it. These people do untold damage and are still at large, shame, shame, shame. Lady liberty is dead and turning over in her grave, along with the founding fathers and justice for all.
Seems the Left can’t control their Demons they set loose in our cities streets.
They may be ungovernable, but they’re definitely arrestible. A moronic group of unemployable basement dwellers who take dirty money from soros to wreak hate and discontent should be easy to round up, then throw away the keys.
So, is this all Trump’s fault too? LOL!!!!!
I’m sure Biden will find a way to blame him just like he is blaming him for the slow rollout of the vaccines. Never mind that we wouldn’t even have a vaccine if it wasn’t for Trump, but that will not be covered by the communist media. Good luck America!!!!!
I know I shouldn’t, but I just couldn’t help laughing out loud when I read this. LMAO
Good to see Portland & Seattle still rioting & hitting up on DNC State office awesome
Finally Dems can sample some to now for 4 years
If you just shoot a few of those bastards they would disperse like cockroaches.
Lol!!! The left now running this country already has plans to use those types of camps for us, in order to “re-educate us”. Haven’t you been paying attention to the rhetoric that several members of Congress and the Biden team have been saying for several days now?
Those “re-education camps” won’t be limited to just a few locations. 75 million people take up a lot of space after all. So I wouldn’t put it past the new head of Homeland Security to be spending a lot of time formulating the logistics of what it would take to create AOC’s, Pelosi’s and other Democrats’ vision for our future to become a reality.
There will ONLY be schools to de-program Trump supporters. Dem anarchists/insurgents have no need for de-programming. They are fulfilling their noble mission. AOC and her merry band of revolutionaries want a “truth and ‘reconciliation'(retaliation)” commission to begin the inquisition. They’ll probably put D C Judge, Emmitt Sullivan, in charge of the kangaroo ‘court’.
They reap what they sowed
A YouTube interview of an ex-Antifa follower was presented by Epoch Times recently. It give very good insight into how they operate. He stated that they have no designated leader, just local groups, who are mainly self-financed. However, someone, or some group is organizing them, motivating them, training them, and probably funding them. Their needs to be a stronger police presence where they protest, and more arrests and convictions when they commit violence and mayhem.
They are NOT going to stop with the blue states. Our very own Vice President, Kommie Harris, said to Colbert “They are not going to stop AND THEY SHOULDN’T.” However, the Dems are not going to allow them to keep embarrassing them with continued destruction in Democrat run utopias. In fact, they are going to be re-directed away from blue areas and specifically instructed to target (and terrorize) the 74 million evil Trump supporters whether they live in blue or red states. Be prepared, it’s coming to a city near you.
Hey this is like Bidens win,you hit the plus sign and it jumps to five from two.
And of course not a word about it from #not my President Biden or Pelosi.
Domestic terrorists want 100% of their agenda. DIMMs who think that they can control Antifa/BLM will be shown to be bigger fools than they are now!
Antifa’s rioting and burning trash and destruction makes the assault on the Capitol last week look like a picnic. I am thinking that news media and the left will make it look like it’s President Trump’s fault. Why not? They need to pass the blame on someone else because they don’t have the courage to stand up to these people. The Governor’s in these States need to resign or be recalled for being a bunch of sissies.
What? This must be a mistake! Joe Biding-His-Time and the FBI ASSURED us that Antifa is not an organization (that’s a quote from the debate, remember?). Surely they wouldn’t have lied or distorted facts, just to get elected!
Looks like the left is turning against their own people. Antifa is out of control. If biden doesn’t do anything, then the people will have to come up with a way to govern them. That wouldn’t be a pretty scene.
What else is new? This is getting old. Anybody got balls enough to throw these punks in jail and throw away the key?
The persons who did this vandalizing in Portland and Seattle are acting like spoiled children who do not get their own way! I guess they could be called “American Terrorists”. They want their “15 minutes of fame”! They don’t care who they hurt (policemen); they didn’t get their way so this is how they show their childish behavior. That’s what it is. Childish. The problem with that is that is going to cost taxpayers to fix the buildings, etc. There’s a saying I once heard: “HURT PEOPLE HURT.”
I think Portland and Seattle are ‘training grounds’ for the big events like what they pulled off in DC.
They are getting good at what they do, and nobody stops them. Question is why.
Watch the @Antifamovie.
How is this not considered insurrection????
Ungovernable. Biden/Harris are not my execs either. These people need to be imprisoned where are the Democrat cries of insurrection now.
What’cha gonna do Biden?
Interesting. My local paper’s article from AP blamed “right wing extremists” for damaging Portland democrat offices. Time to unsubscribe to my newspaper.
so much for the “it’s all Trump’s fault” narrative
I wonder if MSM will even ask Bejing Joe about this?
