It looks like the “A” team for Antifa/BLM is still in DC, as it seemed like the “B” squad was up against the Portland PD on Friday night.
While the rioters seemed to take Thursday night off — presumably to catch the President’s acceptance speech — a Friday Night Fight is just too tempting to forego entirely. So some “dead enders” seemed to show up in the Portland suburbs on Friday night to once again burn the awning over the entrance to the Portland Police Union building.
A wooden pallet was set alight in front of the Portland Police Association building. The awning also caught fire. #PortlandProtests #PDXProtests #BlackLivesMatter pic.twitter.com/f623brg1v2

The also sent about creating the Antifa/BLM version of the Maginot Line (gave you the link to save you the trouble).

Watched “Patton” for the 7000th time the other night. Reminded of this line:
Fixed fortifications are a monument to the stupidity of man.”
Officers made another bullrush, while another group of officers arrived via riot van to support another series of arrests. #PortlandProtests #PDXProtests #BlackLivesMatter pic.twitter.com/LHw2ptnPAA

One arrestee was maced as officers try to cuff him on the ground. The tactics used tonight favored fast arrests and targeting smaller groups. #PortlandProtests #PDXProtests #BlackLivesMatter pic.twitter.com/5EezVo4OEK

Videos don’t show it to have been a big crowd on hand tonight in Portland. Losing steam maybe? Or was it because the protest at the Mayor’s house had live band and all the cook kids went over there?
