So allowing Antifa to assault the public is good optics ?Initially, a Patriotic Rally was scheduled at Waterfront Park. This rally was to mark the anniversary of the murder of Aaron Danielson by self-described Antifa member Michael Reinoehl. On August 20th, Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell stated publicly that Portland police would not protect the rally-goers.
Chief Lovell said that protecting members of the public from Antifa assaults would be “bad optics.” He said the police would only intervene after the fact.
Good luck Portland...

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler and Police Chief Lovell held an online press conference to discuss the pre-planned Antifa riot. Reporter Maggie Vespa asked if the police would separate Antifa from the people they want to attack. Portland’s Chief Chuck Lovell said “no,” and that potential victims should “keep themselves apart” from the people trying to attack them. Lovell goes on to say that police would take action after the violence has already happened.
Lovell says trying to stop Antifa from committing assaults would be “bad optics” for the police.
Maggie Vespa then asks Ted Wheeler, “when would police intervene?” Someone screams, “come on!” and her feed is cut off.
Can't imagine living in a city where the mayor and police bend over for people that are rioting.
