Things continue to get crazier in Portland, Oregon. Following a right-wing truck convoy driving into the city, a Donald Trump supporter was targeted and shot dead in the streets.
Here are some tweets you might find of interest regarding the situation.

The faggot mayor of Portland did a press conference where he said a whole bunch of nothing and blamed the orange man for all the problems. He has continually refused federal aid to end the violence and seems happy to let it continue.

Basically what we have here is a targeted killing of a Trump supporter and as far as I know there have been no arrests of the people responsible. You could say that it is retribution for what happened in Kenosha, Wisconsin where a couple of anti-fascists were killed and another had his arm blown off.
So based on all this, it looks like things are just going to continue to escalate. You are going to see some extreme bloodshed in the streets of Portland if nothing changes. These anti-fascists and communists are being allowed to get away with murder while right-wingers get the book thrown at them if they defend themselves. This is unsustainable.
