Peaceful protests… I don’t think so.
Once again, as the night fell in Portland, violence erupted on the streets.
Police had no choice but to respond after buildings were being set on fire by rioters…

When the local police showed up in force to disperse the crowd, someone got the brilliant idea to throw live fireworks at the officers…
Oregon State Police and @PortlandPolice move antifa rioters back in north Portland tonight. Rioters set up street blockades again and throw an explosive right in the middle of cops. #PortlandRiots #antifa pic.twitter.com/rk6LKXbfDb

The attack resulted in at least three officers being wounded.
This is every night in these cities and this is exactly what Democrats are encouraging throughout our country.
