Anti-ICE Moonbat Sets Himself on Fire Burning Old Glory

Poetic justice lit up some of the Portland darkness on Saturday. Via Post Millennial:

An Antifa activist set himself on fire while attempting to burn an American flag outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) building in Portland, Oregon.

Don’t feel guilty if you burst into guffaws. Looks like the moonbat came out of it okay:

Having to Admit That Criminals Shot in Self-Defense by Border Patrol Are Gangbangers Makes Portland Police Chief Cry

What does it take to be top cop in a city run by moonbats who aggressively side with criminals against law enforcement? Invertebrate Portland Police Chief Bob Day demonstrates.

Daily Wire reports on a Friday press conference:

Day admitted that the Department of Homeland Security was correct about a shooting involving alleged Tren de Aragua gang members — before Day broke down in tears about having to share the truth with the public.

The foreign criminals employed the Renee Good technique of weaponizing their vehicle against law enforcement — with similar results.

“What I can say is there is an association with the two folks yesterday and TDA,” Day admitted. “I hesitated to even share this information initially because I’m very aware of the historic injustice of victim-blaming oftentimes portrayed by law enforcement, including this very agency.”

By “victim,” he means “criminal.” According to liberal ideology, the bad guys are the good guys because they are victimized by law enforcement.

Day whimperingly pandered to Hispanics, whom liberals assume are all on board with their open borders and pro-criminal agenda:

“I understand, or at least have attempted to understand through your voices, your concern, your fear, your anger — this information in no way meant to disparage or to condone or support or agree with any of the actions that occurred yesterday.”

Yesterday refers to Thursday, when the illegal aliens Luis David Nino-Moncada and Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras received their well-earned wounds.

Andy Ngo provides more information:

“The entire city and state leadership, all run by Democrats, organized an emergency press conference to condemn the federal agents, reject DHS’ statement and to express support with the violent suspects, who they called the ‘victims,’” Ngo said. “Local and national media also misled the public about the shooting. A mob showed up to try to attack the ICE facility, leading to six arrests.”

Watch and weep — on second thought, don’t weep; leave the blubbering to moonbats:

By now most of the real cops must have escaped to locales where their services are appreciated, leaving Portland to its just deserts. No real cop who remains is going to be made chief.

Black Acquitted of Stabbing White Because Victim Used N-Word Afterward

To see what progressives are progressing toward, look to the moonbat dystopia Portland, where already it is now effectively legal for a black to stab a white so long as the victim is said to be a racist:

Gary Edwards, 43, was charged with second-degree assault for stabbing a man in Portland near a light rail stop on July 8, KPTV reported. …

Security cameras, with no audio, captured Edwards, with a fixed-blade knife in hand, approaching [Gregory Howard Jr.] as he sat on a [bench].

The derelict Edwards already had a history with knives and assault:

He was convicted of attempted second-degree assault in 2021 and was sentenced to three years in prison for another stabbing in 2020, records show.

Edwards was accused of fourth-degree assault for fighting with a shop clerk, but the case was dismissed because he could not secure a public defender.

This time Edwards had a lawyer, who made the improbable claim that his client approached Howard in order to offer the knife he was brandishing in exchange for cigarettes. Yelped the shyster:

“What other than racism could explain why Mr. Howard perceived hatred, animosity and aggression from a complete stranger?”

Anyone guilty of racism deserves the worst. So long as they are white.

After he was stabbed, bodycam footage from security officers caught Howard calling Edwards a naughty name.

It is unclear if there is any evidence to suggest that Howard used the slur before he was stabbed.

It appears extremely unlikely that he did — as if that should matter. Yet Edwards’s defense was that he stabbed Howard for already having used the forbidden n-word.

The jury found him not guilty.

Despite the left-wing immigration and welfare policies that have transmogrified US demographics, the Caucasians who as recently as 1970 comprised almost 90% of the population are still a majority. But already open season has been proclaimed.

A Portland Christmas

Look to moonbattery-addled Portland for the latest updates to the Newspeak Dictionary. Today we learn that the term “Christmas tree” has been deleted. Until Christmas has been abolished completely, such trees will henceforth be referred to simply as “trees”:

As thousands gathered in Pioneer Courthouse Square for the Oregon city’s 41st annual tree-lighting on Friday night, leaders and speakers avoided mentioning “Christmas” at any point — including in the ceremony itself and the event’s ads.

The festive occasion was kicked off with a woman from the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs thanking everyone in the crowd for coming out on Native American Heritage Day.

Now there’s a holiday wokesters will celebrate with enthusiasm, instead of while holding their noses like they do with Christmas.

Draped in a Palestinian flag, [another featured speaker] used her stage time to lead the crowd in a “Free Palestine” chant.

Those who have opened a Bible will note that calling for the eradication of Jews from Israel is to put it mildly not Christian. But where moonbats hold sway, Christmas is not about Christianity; it is about moonbattery.

Derelict Burns Down House of Pro-Homeless Councilkook

As can be seen by the explosion of homelessness on the Left Coast, which shovels mountains of other people’s money at it, when moonbats advocate for the homeless, they effectively advocate for more homelessness. You might say they advocate having their house burned down by a bum:

As The Oregonian reported, 51-year-old homeless man Vashon Locust was arrested on Tuesday after starting a fire that torched Portland City Councilor Candace Avalos’ townhome and car.

The aptly named Locust faces misdemeanor charges. You were expecting serious jail time?

According to a police affidavit obtained by the paper, Locust snuck into a shed near Avalos’ home on October 26 and attempted to use an electric outlet.

When that failed, he set a fire to stay warm…

At least no one was killed:

Avalos and her cat managed to escape the incident unharmed. She claimed afterward that she was targeted for her political beliefs.

Maybe she was angling for a spot on the Hate Hoax List.

The Daily Mail notes that Avalos has long been an apologist for Portland’s homeless population.

As for Locust,

Locust has been arrested more than 50 times for various felony and misdemeanor charges since 2006, according to court records obtained by The Oregonian.

What goes around, comes around. Sooner or later, it was bound to come around to Avalos.

Siege of Portland ICE Facility Finally Lifted

It took far too long, but public order just reasserted itself at the Portland ICE facility to which Antifa scum has laid siege at least since June. Off goes their garbage to the town dump:

They might need to call in a hazmat team for a more thorough cleaning.

Now on to the rest of the country, which ICE must be allowed to defend from foreign invasion without interference from domestic enemies.

Portland Police With F*** Trump Flag

Occasionally Portland police have to make a show of arresting Antifa terrorists, so that they can receive token wrist slaps before being set loose again at the public’s throat. But this cop raising a “F*** Trump” flag may indicate which side the Portland Police Bureau is on in the steadily warming Cold Civil War:

Looks as if they are posing for photos with this F*** ICE flag:

When the police side with militant kooks against everyone else, things get scary quickly. For details, refer to Russia under Bolsheviks and Germany under Nazis.
