And yet we keep hearing about the "largely peaceful" protests, do we not?  

Quote: Or should we ask to see what happened before that led up to it...like when Trump's Goon Squad was gassing and beating people just standing talking or walking down the street?  I've been told we need to know ALL the facts and do a full, complete and thorough investigation before we can pass any judgment on anything.  

Your attempt to pass this obvious dig off as sarcasm aside, the violence in Portland was what caused the deployment of Federal law enforcement, not the other way around.  Whether there presence exacerbated it is certainly a topic for discussion.

Which is rather the point of the thread, even the spineless mayor can no longer defend the actions of the mob.  The Feds are gone, can't blame them anymore.  The question now is what will he actually do to stop it?

You have a good day as well and enjoy your weekend! :andy:
