the actual best thing about Portland is that it has fewer cops per capita than basically any city in the U.S. i hate every single one of these gutless cowards. fuck you and your fucking badge. i say this from a position of journalistic objectivity.

This is probably the most objectively right thing I've ever seen commented on the Internet.

He's also fucking stupid, he waited until the camera was pointed right at him to do it. If he was trying to silence the reporter, he failed. If he's trying to intimidate anyone, I'd argue he didn't do a very good job of that either. Just braindead all around.

That was on purpose. They're trying to piss people off, this woman isn't the only journalist who got intentionally shot at on camera yesterday. They want escalation.

He wasn't trying to silence a reporter. And he wasn't trying to intimidate anyone. He wanted to hurt someone, so he did. Simple as that.

There's a kind of irony here because Aussie Channel 9 is probably our most centre-right channel. Like, if it was SBS News, I'd get it.

Stokes' 7 is worse, I don't remember 9 hiring a war criminal.

True, but I'm not sure he was an adjudicated war criminal at the time. Ch 9 is the station in every ADF mess. What does that tell you?

Take care of yourself. I know this is probably revisiting real unpleasant memories.

The lack of cops in Portland makes it so much easier to live in. You just don't get bothered. But you also have to go shut those piglets down over in downtown when they get too empowered. Milkshake City baby
