#1 The shooting victim in downtown Portland tonight had a side bag with a "blue lives matter" style flag. Many antifa on social media are celebrating his death, even though his ID is not yet known. The shooting suspect is still at-large.

#2 Slowed/zoom view of what looks like an individual pointing *something* at the victim of tonight's shooting in Portland.

#6 Either the FBI and the National Guard quashes this insurrection, or the loyal armed citizenry will.

If Democrats don't stand with POTUS on this issue then they deserve to be crushed at the polls on 11/3. They are aiding insurrection

#10 Doesn't matter who shot whom. This is another day in the open Insurrection that's been going on at a slow burn for months. It's killed over 20 people already

By refusing to stamp out this fire the American state has made sure that the final suppression of the insurrection will be 100x bloodier.

Either the state acts now with overwhelming force, or the dozens of deaths will run into the hundreds

Personally owned firearms will soon be found to be the culprit. Establishing a 'gun free' society will bring all of this unpleasantness to an end.

#12 At the point where they are shooting it becomes an insurgency. You'd think the COIN fanatics at the Pentagon would be straining at the leash to get involved.

Well the pro-abortion folks already believe it's the baby's fault.

#15 What does Mayor "Quickly Released Without Bail" Wheeler do now? Are the mostly peaceful BLM protesters going to turn over the shooter, since they almost certainly know who he is? Or: screw that -- what is the 82nd Airborne going to do?

Yeah, but on whose side?

#17 What does Wheeler do now?
Blame Trump.
Assemble a praetorian Lightfoot Guard on the QT for his condo and hunker down.
Blame Trump again.
Rinse repeat

#25 They can’t even get good drugs in #Portland. @tedwheeler come out and share man, this is hard to watch.

Notice they all stood still when the camera was off them, then started doing whatever they could when the camera panned back. Come join the party!

#28 #17-- Ted Wheeler is giving a press conference right now in which he's blaming it all on Trump. You win the coveted Rantburg Psychic of the Day award.

#35 By refusing to follow up on the crime, Mayor Wheeler has placed a death sentence on all Trump supporters who dare enterhis kingdom. There are at least 2 planned rallies within the next 3 weeks.
