On Sunday, Trump supporters, reportedly including members of the far-right militia the Proud Boys, exchanged blows with approximately 150 antifascist demonstrators in Salem, Oregon. The two rival groups clashed near the State Capitol building as the day came to a close, with one Trump supporter being detained after drawing a firearm on black-clad demonstrators who had allegedly damaged his vehicle. dressed in "black bloc."
During the afternoon hours, anti-fascist demonstrations could be seen blocking access to a street nearing the Capitol building where Trump supporters were parading with pickup trucks bearing pro-Trump flags. The apparent objective of the antifascist demonstrations on Sunday was to derail a planned right-wing event called "Freedom" in Salem's central town square.
"The 'Freedom' rally was advertised starting in February on social media as an event to honor those who 'fought for our freedoms,'" The Statesman Journal reported. As the afternoon progressed and tensions flared, an additional video emerged of a blue truck barreling through the demonstration's roadblock and nearly crashing straight into one demonstrator in the middle of the street.
According to Oregon Public Broadcasting reporter Sergio Olmos, some vehicles apparently belonging to Trump supporters were pelted with various objects or "splattered" with paint. "Several other vehicles also drove in and near the crowd over the course of the afternoon. Anti-fascist protesters threw objects and splattered some of the vehicles with paint," OPB reported.
Late in the afternoon, one Trump supporter was detained by Salem police after he pulled a gun on antifascist demonstrators, apparently after one of his windows was smashed and paint was flung on his silver pickup, which was festooned with American flags and bore red, white and blue striping. As seen in news images, the man was wearing a hoodie that read, "I Stand for the Flag/ I Kneel for the Cross," a popular right-wing slogan. The man appeared to pull a handgun from his waistband, but no shots were fired.
Police quickly moved in to detain the man, who tossed the firearm into the bed of his pickup truck before complying with law enforcement.
Oregon has been the site of numerous confrontations between right-wing and left-wing protesters over the past few years, but this was the first notable such encounter since the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. "Violent protests between the sides were common during the Trump administration, as anti-liberal groups would often travel to cities like Portland and Salem to engage in the conflicts," as Oregon Public Broadcasting noted in its report.
Following the Salem clash, One America News (OAN) correspondent Jack Posobiec — who has frequently collaborated with neo-Nazis and white supremacists — attempted to frame the incident in quite different terms, writing that "armed Antifa insurrections attempted to overthrow the Oregon state capitol today." That does not appear to be the case.


Typical DPST governance - antifa and OBLM DPST terrorists are free to terrorize, assault, rape, murder, set fire to homes and cars and businesses - without consequence.
let a person assaulted and in fear of his life try to protect himself - (kyle ritenhouse_) - all teh forces of jackboot fiden marxist criminal cabal come down on anyone identified as a not=obedient DPST minion.



Fiden and his criminal cabal and the Coast marxist radicals are fomenting civil War -

I forsee piles of dead DPST antifa and OBLM radical terrorists in front of my weapons
From my cold dead hands - DPST nomenklatura and minions

First grade monotonous , mole. Enjoy stalking much????

If you had any ideas - perhaps you would grace this forum by posting them in a cogent and constructive manner.

Or, just love your Joy reid and her hysteria.

so sad to waste a life deluded by DPST propaganda.
Mole, you gotta diversify a bit more bud. Posting the same shit every time oeb says something is just extra noise.

I love a good meme, even if it pisses me off, but a man will get tired of steak if he eats it too much.
