Portland PD came with the action in a big way tonight in downtown Portland. I’ve made similar comments over the past two weeks since the rioters had abandoned downtown Portland for the non-federal neighbors in the suburbs, but the Portland PD has changed the dynamic of the riots.
State and local police were finally put to the task of cleaning out the two parks across the street from the courthouse, thereby depriving the rioters of their staging and retreat areas. The state and local police then took back control of the streets in the area of the courthouse, denying the rioters easy areas to assemble in large numbers. With their logistics and planning disrupted the rioters shifted their focus to suburban Portland PD Precinct stations for the past two weeks. But the State Police and Portland PD became progressively more aggressive in dealing with the riots in the suburbs, and the protesters also wore out their welcome with the Portlanders who live there.
