Police in riot gear move in on protesters in downtown Portland

Far left Antifa terrorists viciously attacked the Patriot Prayer Group in Portland over the weekend.

Antifa thugs always come out to disrupt the Patriot Prayer Group’s peaceful protests.

Portland Police declared the protests a riot on Saturday after Antifa terrorists threw eggs and fireworks at right-wing activists.

The police had to break up the brawls using flash bangs and tear gas.

KATU reported:

The “Freedom and Courage” rally hosted by the right-wing Patriot Prayer group and its well-known leader, Joey Gibson, gathered at Terry Schrunk Plaza before taking to the streets. The group was granted a permit for the march, but police canceled it once violence ensued. A heavy presence of antifa (antifascist) protesters gathered in the area for a “Defend PDX: Patriot Prayer’s Violence Must End” rally. The protest, hosted by the Rose City Antifa, said “it is very important that antifascists keep up the pressure so that we can stop them once and for all,” in reference to the far-right Patriot Prayer group. After police ordered everyone out of the street Saturday, the Patriot Prayer group returned to Terry Schrunk Plaza, and the antifa group returned to Chapman Square. Police shut down Chapman Square and Lownsdale Square a short time later, and the Federal Protective Service eventually shut down Terry Schrunk Plaza — forcing the Patriot Prayer event to shutdown.

KATU reporter Catherine Van was live on the scene and captured footage of the mayhem.
