This can't possibly end in disaster for Portland, OR:

http://www.portlandmercury.com/blogtown/2017/06/30/19130461/multnomah-county-republicans-formally-allow-militia-groups-to-run-security

The Portland Mercury posted:

The Multnomah County Republican Party (MCRP) has formally decided to pair up with right-wing militia groups to run security at their events.

The formal resolution was passed on on Monday and its text was leaked to the Mercury Friday morning. MCRP Chairman James Buchal, despite being displeased with the leak, confirmed his group approved pairing up with the Oregon Three Percenters and Oath Keepers via a resolution earlier this week:

Proposed Resolution of Chairman Buchal: Resolve that the MCRP may utilize volunteers from the Oregon Three Percenters, Oath Keepers, and other security groups. To provide security where such volunteers are certified to provide private security service by the Oregon Department of Public Safety Standards and Training. Kay Bridges moved and Janice Dysinger seconded. Resolution passed.

have the anarchists show up to protest locations before the republicans get their so their security forces have to remove people by force and start a street war imo

I met him at a party a couple of years ago and he seemed like an okay dude, probed a bit in conversations to see if he could get a rise out of folks, but wasn't obnoxious. I felt kinda bad for him because he sorta named drop his website a few times without it registering. I mean not like huffy or indignant like a "Don't you know who I am!?!" but just a little sigh.

He was always over the top but in a winking way, all his stuff is terrible now but that probably has a lot to do with the fact that he made a bunch of jokes/created a bunch of cliches that other people drove into the ground. He's like the Ridley Scott of early 2000s edgy meme culture.

I hope Maddox is doing alright and isn't a Nazi, whenever I talk to any old friends from when I used to use 4chan I have to check to make sure they didn't become a Nazi in the 5 years since I've last seen them now.

At this latest Portland event, the cops were nowhere to be found. They showed up to talk to Joey Gibson - then split.

Consequently, there were a few scraps amongst the MAGA Cosplay Set and the Antifa, and they pepper sprayed and tear gassed each other, but mostly it was a lot of yelling and chest pounding. I watched in on Periscope feeds.

I wonder if this is what other police departments are going to do - figure that both sides are there for a testosterone-fueled brawlfest, leave them to it, and they just wash their hands of the whole affair.

I know that at least in Washington State, there's the concept of 'mutual combat' - if two people agree to a physical fight, not involving weapons, it's considered legal.

http://fightstate.com/mutual-combat-law-in-washington-lets-two-people-have-a-consensual-streetfight-if-cops-referee/

Which is why Seattle has goddamn Superheroes.

They're now marching to the state capitol building that's down the street. One guy is complaining about the heat (index of 96F / 35C). Also it might rain.

Based Stickman's arm looks pretty messed up.

Problem with demonstrating at the capitol building btw (which the lefty activists in town know) is that it's very big so it makes even large crowds look small.

Speaking of lefty activists, are there any counterdemonstrators?
