You're admitting there was conflict?
99% of Americans had no idea there even were protests in Portland before the Tweety administration's goons decided to start pulling protesters into unmarked cars and beating mothers.
Are you claiming that fake news was not covering what was going on until there was a chance to create a narrative about goons?
It looks like he's now really doing well with suburban women.

You're far left Guardian video is supposed to reflect America's suburban women? The suburban women in this neck of the woods better catch on to who they are supposed to be.

Acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf tells Fox that they're "proactive arrest[ing] people" in Portland.
You must be proud

Acting Secretary Wolf defended the tactic of proactively arresting demonstrators that are attacking federal police officers and federal property.
"Anytime that you attack a federal facility such as a courthouse in Portland that is a federal crime," Wolf said. "Attacking federal police officers -- law enforcement officers -- which they have done for 52 nights in a row is a federal crime. So, the Department [of Homeland Security], because we don't have that local support, that local law enforcement support, we are having to go out and proactively arrest individuals and we need to do that because we need to hold them accountable."
"This idea that they can attack federal property and law enforcement officers and go to the other side of the street and say you can't touch me is ridiculous," Wolf continued. "We don't do that in any other type of law enforcement. We pursue a criminal, we investigate, we pull them over if we have probable cause. We arrest them, we charge them, and we prosecute them. And you need to hold individuals accountable and when we don't do that I think we get what we see in Portland today."
What Wolf said sounds reasonable to me. What's your problem with it?
