    Can't handle the heat, stay out of the kitchen. If you can't walk the walk, don't talk the talk. Not everyone lives in a sheltered world.

    This coming from the person who has ignored both my posts to him because they show that he's lying about Antifa.

    Those where not milkshakes they where cups filled with plaster which can be quite dangerous to be hit with.

    It seems as if you are conflating two issues. I suppose I could forgive for not understanding Portland history.

    I'm sure it has something to do with religion. Something about Christianity being designed to make people docile and compliant. Has a lot to do with why Medieval Kings forced it upon their population.

    Portland however has a rather low rate of religiousity. Thus, the people tend to be less docile, less compliant, and more left leaning. This is the definition of political right vs left. Those on the right are more conforming to the dictates of tradition and their leadership. Note how attached many are to Trump, their leader, how many go to church for guidance. Those on the left are less conforming, have less of a need for religion, and are more likely to stand up to authority.

    Portland is somewhat unique in that it has perhaps the greatest amount of public engagement of any place in the US. This is a characteristic that goes back many decades, even when Republicans held office. But then most of Oregon's Republican leaders have been quite liberal leaning. Oregon's legacy of environmental protection mostly began with the insistence of a Republican governor. But then, that was before the right wing take over of the Republican Party.

    Do you all not remember when the elder Bush called Portland little Beirut? While conservatives sit back and let their leaders decide their fate. Liberals take things in their own hands, for their leaders to conform to the will of the people, not the will of the leaders, as it is in more conservative areas.

    That is why the police in Portland are so laid back and tolerant. It is what the people wanted.

    However the protests in Portland rarely result in harm or injury to individuals. Mostly they are quite peaceful, but there is always that element, all dressed in black, the anarchists that sometimes take things a little too far. But there isn't violence because everyone is on the same side.

    The invasions of violent right wing gangs are a whole different animal. They are criminal organizations intent on causing harm.

    That is conspiracy theory silliness.

    When the Portland Police tested the substances, all they found was milkshakes, most of which were purchased from a local store.

    At first the conservative propaganda machine kept insisting that Portland cement was in the milkshakes, unaware that this isn't the Portland of Portland cement fame. Many conservatives then went onto insist that concrete was in the milkshakes, apparently unaware of what concrete really is. Looks like plaster is the flavor of the day.

    Half of them are women. At the end of they day the men and women of the anti fascists, go home and lay down together. The Proud Boys don't have women, don't go home and lay with them. Read up on them if you don't believe me.

    And, of course, the thread is about how the violent right wing Patriot Prayer is being destroyed by the police, using legal means.

    I'm sure you are going to continue to hate on the image in your head about whatever you think the anti fascists are, but let there be no doubt, the issue at hand, the wrong that is going on, is the actions of violent right wing gangs. Apparently the election of Trump has (bone) spurred them on.

    Have you seen him? Kind of like Ben Shapiro. What is it about these little weasely men that so attracts conservatives. Or congressman Jim Jordan for that matter. What is it about these little men, who talk tough, but you know they couldn't hold their own against a girl in a fist fight? Why are these weak little men, with big mouths, so common on the right? Why do conservatives support them?

    Didn’t you whine about conservative violent gangs in Portland in first and second pages of this thread?
    And now you say this about your boys attacking a guy who just walked and didn’t pose any threat to anyone?

    You, kids, need to get a real good bloody nose once or twice to understand that you are playing with fire. Sooner or later you will come across a stranger that has a knife or a gun and that encounter will leave you dead or with life long disability.

    Half of them are confused by looking at their own crotch. As long as you sit here and make them out to be heroes, I will expose the untruths.

    Only a loser would expect a man to hit a woman.
    Is that how you treat your girlfriends?

    The whole city of Portland is depraved.
    Antifa is just the second worst part.

    If you want to off on a tangent, you can always start your own thread.

    This thread is about how the Portland Police have been systematically dismantling the violent right wing gang, the Patriot Prayer. And that effort has mostly stopped the violence in Portland.

    Okay, now do the vandalism, graffiti, and arson.

    How does that serve to protect a city?

    Bullcrap, the milkshakes where handed out early on and the cups where refilled filled with plaster or something like drywall mud, I examined some of it on apparel later and it was a hard material and definitely not a dairy product.

    The more and more I think about it, the violent right wing gangs, the general conservative acceptance of them, and the hate filled comments against those who stand up to the gangs, and it keeps coming back to me, the same nagging thought.

    I've never been a big fan of the Freudian school of thought, but it seems to fit in this circumstance.

    It ties into the origin of the alt right movement. When the internet was young, there arose a type of website that was primarily target towards men. Actually almost exclusively to men. Collectively these websites, and those who frequented them, became known as the seduction community.

    They had some way out there ideas. However one of their overriding ideas was that modern men have been emasculated. That feminism and political correctness forces have rendered their manhood unusable, or at least greatly curtailed.

    As the back and forth, in their forums proceeded, they began to form a right wing ideology. Their rhetoric used terms like beta, alpha, snowflake and used references from the movies, The Matrix and The Fight Club. These have followed them into the alt right movement.

    It is rather funny to think about, but there was a time when men went online to get advise from Steve Bannon about women.

    Isn't this what this has a lot to do with? The problem of men's emasculation. Isn't that why some of the rallies, that the right wing gangs held, has been in defense of men accused of rape? Isn't that why so many defenders of violent right wing gangs refer to anti fascists in degrogitory terms, as to the manhood of the anti fascists?

    Again, I'm not a fan of Fruedian thought, but still, what you wrote. Go on line and read up on what the Proud Boys are so Proud of.

    There is vandalism and graffiti where you live. So get off of your pretended high horse.

    I happen to live on a beautiful tree lined street in a wonderful neighborhood where the crime rate is down around zero.

    Sure, he was just walking. He began his fateful day by sharing a stage with men who were protesting against men getting arrested for rape, all the while bashing women and feminists. He got beat up by a girl, leaving him bloodied and confused. It was in running away that he was pelted.

    He had been trying to make a name for himself as a right wing provocateur. Like I say if you can't walk the walk, then don't talk the talk. No one forced little Andy Ngo to put himself in harm's way, he went willingly. And in typical conservative fashion he so deluding himself, as to the veracity of those he condemned. Hopefully he learned his lesson.
