The Special Session of the Oregon Leg is closed for safety. Capitol is on lockdown.

Special Session is for wildfire and COVID relief.

Oregon State Police and Salem Police stand by and do nothing while heavily armed trumpers brandish loaded weapons, surround the building and smash the front door in.

[PSPS]

1. And the media breathlessly runs to cover the circus act, thus encouraging more such behavior.

[TomDaisy]

2. I don't think the media is covering it enough

[ffr]

19. Yup. It's self-fulfilling.

You are right on the money.

[bluestarone]

3. AGAIN no TEARGAS no RUBBER BULLETS, no RIOT GEAR?

WTF? Black person would be DEAD ON THE SPOT!!

[TomDaisy]

4. there is plenty of video footage of Salem Police beating black people

[bluestarone]

6. I DO NOT see it HERE!

( Just saying that IF these were BLM people, there would be PEOPLE BLEEDING)

[Karadeniz]

5. Spot on! Pathetic!

[zentrum]

11. It's enraging.

[ffr]

20. I was just going to say the same thing.

I guess if you're white, you can break into building at-will and without consequence.

What-the-FUCK!

[uponit7771]

35. +1

[world wide wally]

7. Meet them with force

Fuck them

[Mopar151]

8. Just like Alabama in the 60's

No firehoses, dogs, or riot sticks for the Klan!

Ya know, the trouble with "Back the Blue", is who The Blue is backin`......

[AmyStrange]

9. Well, taxpayers do own the building, and...

-

I assume they ARE taxpayers.

12. If a bunch of black people were doing that they'd be arrested for vandalism

This is shameful the Oregon police stood by and let this happen. Everyone of these vandals should have been arrested.

Why isn’t fox broadcasting this shameful act? These are fascists.

[Mr.Bill]

15. Correction, they'd be shot. n/t

[Amaryllis]

16. Fox not covering becasue they are white guys.

[Caliman73]

13. The police inside the building had something to say about it.

They shot pepper balls at the idiots trying to breach. They shot one asshole in the hand.

Granted, there would have been live ammunition and massive violence had the protestors been Black or leftists, but you can't say that police did nothing.

[Fiendish Thingy]

14. Footage posted elsewhere of State police using pepper spray and less lethal munitions

As well as just pushing these nut jobs out of the doorway.

[BainsBane]

17. The deplorables are deplorable.

[ancianita]

18. Domestic terrorists. I hope the cameras were running.

Oregon's governor looks to have some serious police reform ahead.

[Traildogbob]

21. Time to say night night.

Put em down. Cut the cancer out. Sick of this shit. I did not give 8 years to watch this shit stand.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

32. Yes

They are like rabid dogs but armed.

Put them down.

Each one gone is 1 less asshole fucker .

Our country is over run with narcissists dark triad personalities. There is no cure for people who have this type of personality.

Put them down if they get violent.

[SMC22307]

23. Cameras were running and a journalist was assaulted.

Hopefully more arrests will be made, especially that hairy maskless goon in shorts.

[SMC22307]

22. "Arrests were made." Big whoop. Chemical agents used on cops.

Destruction of property. I've had it up to my eyeballs with crazed MAGATs.

24. Gotta ask: Are these the Antifa terrorists that are taking over the northwest?

[ancianita]

31. Gotta answer: No. There's no such thing as antifa terrorists. The fa(scists) are the terrorists.

Like the ones in law "enforcement" that kept their distance to LIHOP.

Real law enforcement prosecutors will move on them on behalf of the people of the state.

[jmowreader]

34. Nope. These are Profa terrorists

Profa = pro-fascist. You know, Trump supporters.

[Demonaut]

25. I see maybe 20

[lpbk2713]

26. Home grown terrorists.

That should be considered an armed insurrection.

It seems like Oregon is too far north to be regarded as a banana republic.

[BobTheSubgenius]

30. An armed insurrection is exactly what it is.

Why is the govt. habitually reluctant to call things what they are. The Bundy group takeover of the wildlife center was, as well.

[Rice4VP]

27. Impossible. Trumpanzees don't destroy property...

[lindysalsagal]

28. Butbutbu

But why? WTF were they going to do once inside? Empty the vending machines?

[lpbk2713]

29. They would have to answer to the Coca-Cola Company.

[Takket]

33. now as a social experiment.........

let's have 100 armed black men smash the window of the Kentucky state house.............. and we'll see what the police do.

(Disclaimer... don't do this, you will be killed.)
