Gonna be a mess - got an excuse to agitate

[hollohas]

A right wing group is planning a rally in Portland this weekend in remembrance of the guy who was murdered a few weeks back and to call for an end to the 100+ days of terrorism there.

The Governor of Oregon declared a state of emergency in response.

Seriously.

100+ nights of rioting, setting police stations on fire, molotov cocktails, violence, murder, etc...no problem.

One right wing rally, declare an emergency.

She said "Let me be perfectly clear: We will not tolerate any kind of violence this weekend. Those stoking the flames of violence, those coming to Portland looking for a fight will be held accountable,".

You can't this stuff up.

No, the Proud Boys are planning a rally ... they're not "right wing", they're pretty centrist actually.

In that case she declared a state of emergency for a centrist rally. Even more insane.

Of course she did. Centrism will really muddy the water.

The left hates the center (especially the center left) more than they hate the right because like most cultists and religious fanatics they see the sin of apostasy as worse than the sin of simple disbelief. Ideological purity spirals are a hallmark of extremist movements.

That's nice and all, but no one thinks of the Proud Boys as Centrist, even people on here. The far Left, certainly doesn't.

Read the wiki article and you'd think they were Nazi Islamist extremists stoning women.
