I have no doubt that unless this is stopped in the courts, these squads will be showing up on November 3rd in mostly minority neighborhoods to ensure "free and fair" elections. Sad that we have learned nothing from Italy and Germany of the 1920s and 1930s, and the rise of authoritarianism in modern day Europe.

From your reply, I can only presume that you are perfectly OK with unmarked security and unmarked cars using pepper spray and beating up people with night sticks and shooting them with rubber bullets. Is that bringing order to our streets?

I have been waiting to see if anyone would start a conversation on the unmarked security force and the unmarked cars in Portland, OR. This is reminiscent of Nazi Germany.

If they would bust a couple of heads in these cities this bs would stop. These idiot liberal cities are letting the inmates run the asylum. Where your compassion for the businesses being burned and looted. And the people living in these areas. TAKE BACK OUR CITIES

Isn't it utterly amazing that there is zero coverage of the business owners and the residents in the area??

Absolutely no question where the politicians and media priorities are.

Brazen, biased, selective coverage of the real news in the area.

Outright ignoring the majority presence.
