Portland- Photos: Windows smashed during demonstration in Pearl District

https://www.koin.com/news/photos-windows-smashed-during-demonstration-in-pearl-district/
"PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Portland police responded to a protest in the Pearl District Saturday night and arrested two people.

They say demonstrators spray painted buildings and smashed windows at a grocery store, restaurant, bank, shipping business, and multiple coffee shops.

Police say the protest lasted more than two hours. According to social media posts, demonstrators said they gathered in response to immigration policy under the Biden administration.

Investigators say anyone who believes they were a victim during the protest and who has not reported should contact police."

to violently just cause trouble, smash windows, and attack police.

NOT TO BE CONFUSED with actual BLM activists.

These kids don't know what the fuck they're protesting or why. They are, simply put, idiots. Goons.

And they are making it impossible to conduct genuine activism.
