I reported earlier how Mayor Ted Wheeler had falsely blamed the federal agents at the courthouse, claiming that there was nothing that justified their use of gas, some of which he sucked in.

Yeah, nothing except for the fireworks being shot at the building and federal agents, projectiles being launched at agents and Wheeler himself and fires being set to burn the building down.

As we reported, you can see Wheeler here looking at one of the fires, then adjusting his mask for the responding tear gas.

He then of course threatened them with gas himself, once he left the scene, since Portland Police threatened them and he’s the police commissioner because he’s the mayor.

Antifa really had the fires going last night, they managed to breach one area of the fence and were stoking the fires on either side of the fence.

But remember, these anarchists are not the sharpest tools in the draw. It took them weeks to figure out how to breach the barriers the feds put up on the courthouse.

Now, one managed to set his buddy on fire in the process of their attack.

They even set the tree on fire.

How dumb are these people? They’re going to get someone killed with these terrorist actions. The terrorists who can’t even set fires correctly.

Feds also nailed at least a few of the rioters as they attacked agents.

One rioter screamed as she was pulled away and her buddies pelted the agents, and tried to blind them with lasers, but they couldn’t free her.

Federal law enforcement quickly repair the part of the heavy duty fence that was broken by rioters. Rioters have so far been unable to tear down the fence completely. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/WZH9o9KOA1

So Democrats, are you still going to call the reaction unjustified and these crazy lunatics “peaceful protesters?”
