Peaceful Portland Protestsâ„¢ turn violent as seven Antifa demonstrators are arrested

At least seven were arrested in Portland on Sunday during violent clashes between Antifa demonstrators and white nationalists.

Two police officers were injured as protesters threw rocks and smoke bombs at police during the 'Patriot Prayer' rally.

Authorities in the city were preparing for violence at around noon as anticipation grew for a rally that was staged by the right-wing organization.

At around the same time, police made sure to create a buffer between Patriot Prayer and several hundred counter-protesters belonging to another group which demonstrated under the banner ‘Shut Down White Supremacy'.

There was also a street march organized by the group Portland Stands United Against Hate.

The tensions nearly escalated to a tragedy after police arrested one man who witnesses say attempted to plow his pick-up truck into a group of Antifa demonstrators.

#4  It's Reuters - They're great for phrasing for groups that they like.

Shouldn't be "When Peaceful Portland Protestsâ„¢ turn violent, seven Antifa demonstrators are arrested"?

#2  I'm curious where the 'White Nationalists' label comes from. I looked at the article and didn't see any Nazi symbols - just a 'Trump' sign.

Am I missing something. Seems the media is starting to smear anything to the right of Joseph Stalin as 'White Nationalist.

And per the pic -does that mean we can start shooting AntiFa members now?
