Deadly Shooting in Portland After Pro-Trump Ralliers Clash With Protesters
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/30/us/portland-trump-rally-shooting.html (https://archive.vn/9J0ak)

A caravan of supporters of President Trump drove through downtown Portland, which has seen nightly protests against police violence and racial injustice. One person was shot and killed in the conflicts that erupted.

PORTLAND, Ore. — A man was shot and killed Saturday as a large group of supporters of President Trump traveled in a caravan through downtown Portland, Ore., which has seen nightly protests for three consecutive months.

The pro-Trump rally drew hundreds of trucks full of supporters into the city. At times, Trump supporters and counterprotesters clashed on the streets, with people shooting paintball guns from the beds of pickup trucks and protesters throwing objects back at them.

A video that purports to be of the shooting, taken from the far side of the street, showed a small group of people in the road outside what appears to be a parking garage. Gunfire erupts, and a man collapses in the street.

The man who was shot and killed was wearing a hat with the insignia of Patriot Prayer, a far-right group based in Portland that has clashed with protesters in the past.

The Portland Police Bureau said that officers heard reports of gunfire shortly before 9 p.m. and found a victim with a gunshot wound to the chest. It was determined that the victim had died. They did not release any information about a possible gunman.

At the scene, police officers blocked off the road and medics attended to a person who appeared to have a chest wound.

Portland has seen nightly demonstrations since the death of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis in May. In recent days, right-wing demonstrations have also sprung up in the city, and Mr. Trump has repeatedly highlighted the unrest in Portland as evidence of the need for a tougher law-and-order response to the chaotic protests over police violence and racial injustice that have swept through many American cities.

The Trump supporters gathered earlier Saturday in the suburbs and plotted a route for the several hundred vehicles involved in the event that would have kept them on the highways outside the city center. But some of the ralliers headed directly downtown, where counterprotesters confronted some of the vehicles. Some of the conflicts led to fistfights. In one encounter, someone drove over a bike, drawing police to the scene.

While protests in Portland have persisted, their numbers have changed over time. The nightly events began with mass demonstrations after Mr. Floyd’s death, then shrank to smaller numbers of people who repeatedly clashed with the police. In July, when the federal government sent camouflaged agents into the city, the protest numbers grew dramatically once again.

In more recent days, the protest crowd has typically numbered just a few hundred people. On Friday, after a peaceful demonstration in front of Mayor Ted Wheeler’s residence, a crowd went out to a police association building, where some of the protesters set fire to the front of the building before the police dispersed the crowd.

The police have made dozens of arrests in recent days as they have chased protesters through the streets, at times knocking them to the ground.

Mr. Trump has repeatedly focused on the unrest in Portland, including during the Republican National Convention last week, challenging the city’s leaders to end the chaos. Mr. Trump said in a tweet on Friday that the federal government would go into the city if the mayor were unable to maintain control.

Mr. Wheeler in a letter on Friday asked Mr. Trump to stay away, saying the earlier federal presence had made things worse. “Your offer to repeat that disaster is a cynical attempt to stoke fear and distract us from the real work of our city,” he wrote.

UPDATE: It appears that he has been identified, and self-identities as antifa. He also has recent problems with the law.

Video all through that thread, showing Kyle was defending himself from aggressors, while attempting to retreat.

We're not in that thread.

 

[TerribleIdeas™]

We're not in that thread.

No, you decided to bring your mad-posting about a kid engaged in self-defense to a thread where there's ample reason to believe the antifa shooter wasn't engaging in self-defense, because the guy drew on someone that wasn't threatening anyone.

[X Prime]

More insipid than even HHH's usual fare. It's actually kind of impressive in its mediocrity.

 

[tehpope]

Lol nothing will happen, you need control of institutions and the media for anything to matter and the right has gleefully given it all away in a retarded frenzy of "MUH FREE MARKET MUH FREE SPEECH MUH FREEDOM". 2020 isn't the beginning of the end for the left, it's the comeuppance for the right after decades of being retarded.

Seriously dude. Stop throwing the fucking fishing rod in the water. Come back when you have better bait.

At least HHH seems like he has principles and believes the shit he spews.

Triple H may not always say some agreeable things most of the time, but his heart's in whatever he says. I'd just tone down on the dumb cult Trumper remarks, but this is the Kiwi Farms.

Overall, this back and forth political dialogue is gonna continue to rip this place apart until Null snaps. Man, I can't wait for November.

 

[ColtWalker1847]

Are people gonna bring up the shooting victim's rap sheet like they do when it's the other side that gets shot?

Do it then.

See if we give a fuck.

[Shady Attorney]

The dead guy is being floated around as Jay Bishop. This Bishop guy is also in Patriot Prayer. There’s an article written about him

Prosecutors Monday dropped all charges against 38-year-old Jay Byron Bishop, who was arrested Sunday and accused of carrying a firearm in his moped at a federal park during a Patriot Prayer rally.

Bishop had been accused of being a felon in possession of a firearm and carrying a concealed weapon.

"After receiving the reports, we feel the search that revealed the weapon would fail to withstand a motion to suppress in state court,''

Bishop is a felon having been convicted in 2010 of unlawful use of a weapon and is not allowed to possess firearms.
Bishop's friend told court officials that Bishop suffers from post traumatic stress disorder after an Army injury. Bishop told court authorities that he has a traumatic brain injury, and that using medication is against his religious beliefs, according to court records.

It's okay! Once the victim's been ID'd, we can find his criminal record and use it to retroactively justify his murder! Maybe the guy who died was a pedophile rapist abuser assaulter, that means the killer did the world a service by unknowingly killing one! Or does that only count when the victim's on the other side?
It's funny how people immediately jumped to find the shooter's record but not the victim's because the victim politically aligned with them.

to the sticker brigade: Extrajudicial murder is bad. Neither side should do it. Neither side should burn down buildings or march through the streets heavily armed ready to fight.

Killing is wrong. So is gravedancing after a person has been killed extrajudicially. So is dragging their name through the mud.

Don't know what happened, sounds like "antifa" was involved. Doesn't matter WHO did it, it's wrong.

Niggas need to stop killing each other.

Welcome to A&N. It's only okay to gravedance and drag the dead's name through the mud after they're dead as retroactive justification for extrajudicial murder as long as it's an antifag. It's never okay if it's one of the good guy patriots people agree with.
Encouraging violence is only okay if it fits whatever stupid pushback civil war 2 fantasy some people have.

Kyle's history - beating up on a smaller girl with 3 other spinless faggots, then getting jumped by 3 adults who came out to stop him beating down on the girl. Also, shooting three people with criminal records he was unaware of. Also had a reputation for being a standoffish wingnut idiot attention whore who was known to be a "possible future shooter" with few friends before he dropped out of high school.

I love that you're purposefully ignoring that fact that Kyle continued to beat down on the girl until those guys his size came out of the car which got him to run like a bitch because he was afraid of getting his ass kicked in return. Why do you act as if he's some kind of tactical genius instead of a punk kid with violent tendencies who likes to fight?

 

[WinchesterPremium]

Wow I can't wait to read about this event!

Or I could read people bitching about HHH and falling for MiC's bait. That is fun too.

[UnKillFill]

It's okay to kill people who committed crimes in the past.

This guy gets it.

 

[Diana Moon Glampers]

No one's coming out to these insane shitshows and staying until they blow up, unless they've got a history of violence and a record. The police could probably get hundreds of people on bench warrants using a kettle-and-process scheme. Let everyone go who doesn't have an active warrant out against them.

Seriously, where else can you find this many people who would normally just be in their little ratholes hiding from the popo and hoping no one notices them? It's like why cops will pull people over on major holidays, because people who wouldn't normally be on the roads allowing themselves to be picked up still gotta go to grandma's. No time like the present to find a bunch of bailjumpers.

Except one thing. The extended protesting/rioting are exclusively done in areas where the local government supports them. Or, rather, political leadership is using them as leverage in their own Machiavellian schemes.

That's why Kenosha settled down once state and NG reinforcements arrived. The rioters knew if they were rounded up there wouldn't be a friendly DA handing out Get Out Of Jail Free cards. If they stuck around they were going to get deep dicked by angry Midwestern law.

This is all happening because some people in power want it to happen. It's been blatantly obvious for months.

As @ColtWalker1847 said above, local government isn't supporting any sort of consequences for the protesters/rioters in Portland. The DA has specifically said his office would presumptively decline to prosecute those whose most serious accusation doesn’t involve deliberate property damage, theft, or the use or threat of force against someone else. Which means he won't be prosecuting anyone arrested for interfering with a peace officer, second-degree disorderly conduct, rioting, or anyone whose most serious accusation involves a city ordinance violation, so Antifags can shit on plinths all over town.

Go here and search for bookings in the last 7 days and then see how many have been released within 12 hours of their booking, without bail: http://www.mcso.us/PAID/

Even if they do have active warrants, unless they're for something serious, the DA isn't going to do shit.

Edit: For example...

Multnomah Co. Chair responds to deadly shooting near Portland protest
https://katu.com/news/local/multnomah-co-chair-responds-to-deadly-shooting-near-portland-protest (https://archive.vn/XyDMV)

PORTLAND, Ore. – Multnomah County Chair Deborah Kafoury issued a statement Sunday in response to the deadly shooting that took place in downtown Portland the previous night.

A man was shot and killed at about 8:45 p.m. Saturday near the intersection of Southwest 3rd and Alder Street as a large protest and counter-demonstration were moving through the area.

According to the Associated Press and New York Times reporters from the scene, the man was white and had been wearing a hat with the logo of Patriot Prayer, a conservative group based in Vancouver, Washington led by activist Joey Gibson.

At this point, police have not said whether the shooting was connected to the protests occurring in the area.

On Sunday morning, Chair Kafoury released a statement about the shooting, saying in part, "those of us who believe in, and are working toward, a more just and equitable community must take an unequivocal stand against the violence that structural racism inflicts on Black and other people of color, against violence inflicted by police, and against violence between community members."

Mayor Ted Wheeler and Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell are expected to speak at noon Sunday to address the homicide and other violence at protests.

Chair Kafoury released the following statement about the shooting:

"Last night, an event that was clearly intended to intimidate, provoke and endanger individuals resulted in a fatality. The loss of life is tragic and unacceptable.

"We are witnessing the self-perpetuating cycle of violence fueled by white supremacy. We cannot forget that the protests Portland has seen for more than 90 days began in response to the police killing of George Floyd, an unarmed Black man who was then the latest victim of a long and horrendous history of police brutality against Black people, itself a feature of the systemic racism that poisons our country.

"While the overwhelming majority of protestors have engaged in non-violent demonstration to call for police accountability, racial justice and the dismantling of racist institutions, we have also seen instances of interpersonal violence, vandalism and destruction.

"Then last night — stoked by a president who has gone out of his way to demonize this city and encourage vigilantism in service to white supremacy and his own fragile ego — armed participants of a pro-Trump caravan terrorized downtown Portland, driving their vehicles and shooting paintballs and pepper spray directly at community members and journalists. They came to create confrontation and were able to do so.

"This tragedy will be used to justify escalating violence. It will be used to paint an entire movement with a broad and misleading brush. And sadly, it will be used by the occupant of the White House to deepen divisions and fear.

"Those of us who believe in, and are working toward, a more just and equitable community must take an unequivocal stand against the violence that structural racism inflicts on Black and other people of color, against violence inflicted by police, and against violence between community members.

"And the most effective way to do that is to stand for and build toward something better -- to engage in the hard work of transforming the public safety system, ensuring equal opportunity and making tangible progress toward racial justice. Multnomah County is doing that work now, and we are wholly committed to the long-term work ahead."

Unbelievable. This bitch blames it on white supremacy and Trump and makes black people out to be the victims.

[trannyfucker]

They should charge religious hate crime for Bishop's killing

A Guy in Portland Just Won the Right to Wear a Fox Hat in His ID Photo

The man, Jay Bishop, argued that he should be allowed to wear the hat because he practices the Native American Waashat religion and the fox is his totem animal.
