Domestic political violence (USA)

[Kevin23]

Portland Oregon is supposed to be the scene of dueling protests this weekend between various elements of the white nationalist and anti-government hard right vs. ANTIFA/left-wing.

Conservative journalist Andy Ngo who was injured in an ANTIFA attack a couple of months ago in Portland is raising concerns about the city police force's abilities to handle this weekend's events should things get out of hand.

Journalist Andy Ngo, who survived a brutal attack by Antifa members in June, said Friday that Portland police are not prepared to control Saturday's planned standoff between the hate group and far-right demonstrators.

“I’m really concerned about the Antifa-versus-right-wing protest happening tomorrow. I think it has the potential to be a powder keg,” Ngo told “Fox & Friends.”

“In Portland, political violence is a banality now," he said. "However, the demonstrations are looming in the shadows of the recent mass shootings by the far-left and the far-right ideologues and their extremist elements who are broadcasting their desires for bloodshed. On top of that, police seem to be at a breaking point. They’re severely understaffed.”
