Yesterday Antifa in Portland held one of their normal armed terrorist meetups, ostensibly a direction action in support of Amir Locke
https://www.portlandoregon.gov/police/news/read.cfm?id=402187https://thepostmillennial.com/1-dead-5-injured-after-mass-shooting-at-portland-antifa-gatheringhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2022/02/20/portland-oregon-shooting/The major outlets and local reporting are of course sanitizing the fact that it was a known Antifa rally, but what we know so far is that Antifa got in a shootout with a local homeowner. The details are scant, and Antifa are naturally refusing to cooperate and destroying evidence, and even swarmed the police spokesman when he tried to give an update on the shooting investigation today, screaming about Andy Ngo and trying to blame him.
Its still an incredibly unclear situation. What we know is that 1 female was killed and 5 people were injured, and a shootout occurred between an armed homeowner and a group of Antifa rallying that night, and two people are in custody. We don't know who shot first, we don't know who died, we don't know who is in custody, we don't know. The Oregonian, which is regularly written by Antifa sympathizers talking to Antifa sources, wrote that an unnamed source with direct knowledge of the event told them the homeowner shot first and Antifa returned fire. Which is of course, completely untrustworthy. The police however, as they covered, have stated:
Quote
“... (A) number of witnesses were uncooperative with responding officers,” police said in the statement. “Most people on scene left without talking to police. Detectives believe a large number of people either witnessed what happened, or recorded the incident as it unfolded. This is a very complicated incident, and investigators are trying to put this puzzle together without having all the pieces.”
A press conference where police officials planned to address the shooting and a separate fatal shooting by police that also took place Saturday was disrupted by an estimated 50 demonstrators about two minutes after it began at 11 a.m. Sunday.
Portland Police Lt. Nathan Sheppard stood by silently as protesters began to speak to the media gathered outside the front doors of the downtown Central Precinct. He eventually got into an unmarked car and drove off, trailed by shouts and heckles.
So, what happened? Who shot first? Odds are, we'll never actually know. At a minimum we might find out who the homeowner is, and whether the homeowner was killed or an Antifa militant was killed. The way Antifa sounded at the press conference it sure sounds like it was one of theirs. So if the homeowner is alive and injured, likely in custody, we might actually hear what the hell happened. No reason to distrust their account any more than a normal involved party in these kinds of shootings, unlike Antifa who we know will lie about everything even if they were the victims. I mean, their first reaction was to
blame Andy Ngo and claim that this was a white supremacist hitman who flew their on Andy Ngo's orders, lmao.
