Federal agents likely permanently blinded by Portland protesters’ lasers, White House says
Three federal agents who were sent to Portland, Ore., to try to help quell the city’s violent protests were “likely left permanently blinded” from clashes, White House officials said Friday.
“A federal agent’s hand was impaled by planted nails, another federal agent was shot with a pellet gun, leaving a wound deep to the bone, and tragically, three federal officers were likely left permanently blinded by the rioters using lasers pointed directly into their eyes,” White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters Friday.
All five of the injured federal agents were hurt Monday during ongoing protests at the Multnomah County Justice Center and a nearby federal courthouse in Oregon’s largest city.

This is insane.

Antifa needs to be PUT DOWN by force with prejudice.

Anyone who lives in these far left cities is out of their minds at this point. They are run by a hostile government that doesn't care about their citizens safety or security but is coddling insurgents. These local governments are aiding and abetting an insurgency.

One of many sad issues is the "rubber necker's" that show up with no violence "intended" but cheer on the rioter's as they destroy America. 60 years ago if a parent found out their child was doing this crap...they'd either get their @$$ beat or thrown out of the Family home and left to take care of themselves. It would be a total embarrassment to the Family and looked down upon in the neighborhood. Values have deteriorated so badly they won't return to any decent level.

Antifa foot soldiers are being trained folks ...6 months to a year these folks in these cities today will be in a city near you... recruiting and training .
This is why liberal cities are allowing this ...

"Fundamental transformation"

 

[BDinPutnam]

You can't do either of those things, @prambo. The first would essentially gut the constitution and the second would essentially gut federalism.

As much as I hate the size and reach of the government, federally and locally- federal laws still need to function and we do need them.

 

[BDinPutnam]

Maybe so...what would you suggest to bring a "peaceful" resolution to an obvious Maoist insurrection?

Arrests.

Charges.

Sentencing.

On federal charges you outlined yourself.

I'd also be investigating these organizations the same way we investigated organized crime.

That said, a lot of these groups have no "leadership" per se, which makes it harder.

If the federal government wants to continue to be the largest single employer in these United States, they should start doing the hard work of building cases.

It's simple. Leadership that "does right voluntarily."

The mob is avoiding cities with strong leadership and if this was not a Presidential re-election year I believe things would not got this far out of hand and that emboldens the power grabbing Republic hating progressive Anarchists.

Just as George Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm were works that foretold some of this mess .....

Until that time leaders step up, a few strategically placed billionaire caped Crusader vigilantes would put a dent in it.


Part of me would like to apply for the job with the same sense of justice and impatience with a broken system but I'm a few bucks short, and my toys aren't as cool .

Hell, even a few more victims standing up for themselves and retreating in to shadows (so a distorted perverted justice system has trouble crucifying the resisting victim) will put a dent in it. Remember how subway crime plummeted after Bernie Goetz.

I haven't watched a movie in a long time. What's on the list .... Death Wish ... The Equalizer ... Falling Down ... Grand Torino ... Dirty Harry ... Taken ...

New or old Death Wish?

New or old Death Wish?

Have not seen the new one yet. Life was too busy back then to catch it in the theater and later the Honey do list, traveling, and manly fun stuff ate up so much time there was only small scattered time slots for movies, books, or serious music listening. How is the Bruce Willis reissue? I was worried that the PC culture would have neutered its full potential.

 

[Chevusa]

Find the people, have a speedy trial, then hang then in the street for all to see and leave them there for a few weeks.

It is ok. Original is still better but worth a watch.

So they are forcing them to use no force and allow this or go to deadly physical force???!!! These are troubling times guys. Im totally over this.

Simple solution, The feds need to put snipers on the roof tops and when they spot a laser fire upon it!
Lasers can and do permanent harm to people and as such LEO's should be able to defend them selves from that threat.
