“F— the United States!” Antifa try to break into the federal courthouse in Portland. Federal officials just removed the barricades protecting the building after months of #antifa attacks on the building. Now they’re back again. #PortlandRiots

Footage of #antifa & BLM rioters being pushed back by federal officers after they tried to storm the Mark O. Hatfield US Courthouse in downtown Portland. They taunt the officers, telling them to shoot. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/bJLJQ7SdgN

I’m reminded a little bit of this scene from Tombstone:
Nobody tells someone with a gun to “pull it” or “throw down” if they had the slightest inkling that the guy with the gun would actually skin it and start slotting motherfuckers.
Antifa is cocksure because they know that no matter what they do, the Portland Police will not fire for effect. The police might as well leave their guns at home.
That’s why they do things like this, celebrate when they smash the windows of a courthouse.
Federal officers retreat inside during the #antifa attack on the Portland federal courthouse. One of the militants smashed up the glass on the building. The protective barrier that had been erected since last year was only just removed. #PortlandRiots https://t.co/NAsCSi0ShH

Here a security guard draws his gun and watch how the crowd immediately falls back, but as soon as they realize he’s not going to fire they move in an attack again.
#Antifa and other far-left rioters in Portland tried to break into the @Chase bank. A lone security guard tried holding them back. He pulled out a pistol during the mob attack. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/Sw3SU8PO0A

There is only one remedy for this.
Put the fear of dying and going to hell into Antifa by demonstrating that you are willing and able to kill them. That means that when some Antifa punk sticks his arm into a door that the police are trying to lock while yelling “pull it,” an officer pulls it and turns said Antifa punk’s head into a fucking canoe.
Hell they shot that 35 yr old gal at the capital for no reason.. why not portland. Buncha cowards more scared of thier bosses and the flack they will get. The jan 6 crowd shoulda gone after portland.
Its gonna take armed citizens to bring peace to portland and that will never happen because they will face multiple felonys for saving the city
“Hell they shot that 35 yr old gal at the capital for no reason.. why not portland.”
Because they needed at least one death inside the Capitol. They needed to have additional reasons to turn DC into a militarized green zone. If the (so-called) riot was not deadly it would be difficult to call it an armed insurrection.
