Riot! Antifa & Far Right Clash in Portland As Police Declare Riot (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


What began in downtown Portland Saturday as a permitted march by the far-right group Patriot Prayer was quickly declared a riot and halted by police after altercations with anti-fascist counter-protesters escalated, with reports of projectiles causing several injuries.

Four people were taken to area hospitals by ambulance, one with a serious but not life-threatening injury and the other three with non-serious injuries. Additionally, a patrol vehicle escorted one police officer who experienced non-serious injuries to a hospital, according to a statement by the Portland police department.

Police arrested four individuals, though all were in connection to events prior to Saturday’s events.

Supporters of Patriot Prayer, led by its incendiary leader Joey Gibson, who is also running for a U.S. Senate seat in Washington state, began to assemble in parks along Third Avenue in downtown Portland early Saturday afternoon.

Far-left antifa protesters congregated in similar or greater numbers nearby.

The two groups lobbed insults at each other across a heavy law enforcement presence, clad in riot gear, there to keep the two sides apart and screen for weapons.

Around 6 p.m. local time, Patriot Prayer initiated its permitted march, working its way along Third Avenue. But projectiles quickly began flying. Police then cancelled the permit, used bullhorns to declare the situation a riot and deployed flash bangs and rubber bullets to disperse the crowds.

“We seized numerous weapons early on, and interceded and separated people when necessary. However, once projectiles, such as fireworks, eggs, rocks, bottles and construction equipment were thrown and people were injured, we ordered people to disperse,” Deputy Police Chief Bob Day said in a statement.

      Their use of illegal laws had a lot to do with this. They infringe on your right of assembly by insisting on a permit with in turn alerts a crowd that does exactly what you see in this video. They have days to form a dissident group to the point they even bus in trouble makers. On top of that snowflakes are getting a paycheck. Above that still some of these marches are false flags. It’s a waste of my time to address this because this an all other protest marches have accomplished nothing. What was accomplished in this debacle?
