Portland Dem. Mayor Wheeler admits he's a useless failure

Portland, Oregon Mayor Ted Wheeler admitted that his policies in handling the Antifa debacle over the summer were as useless as nerf guns against violence. He didn't actually say that in so many words, but pretended his woke responses to the riots, looting, property destruction and general mayhem were instead done in "good faith." 

What exactly were his responses? a) don't respond--it might cause problems; b) hide in his office until this thing blows away; c) take the side of Antifa because that will be a good thing, maybe; or  d) all of the above.

Fun Fact: Wheeler chose d) all the above.

“My good-faith efforts at de-escalation have been met with ongoing violence and even scorn from radical Antifa and anarchists,” Wheeler said at a New Year’s Day press conference. “In response, it will be necessary to use additional tools and to push the limits of the tools we already have to bring the criminal destruction and violence to an end.”

Additional tools? Wheeler is a tool.

“It’s time to push back harder against those who are set on destroying our community and to take more risks in fighting lawlessness,” the Portland idiot finally realized after the town experienced violent attacks by Antifa on Portland Police Bureau officers and destruction of businesses in the downtown district on New Year’s Eve. 

The anarchists who pretend to be against anarchy, attacked police with commercial-grade fireworks and firebombs. The scumbag rioters threw at least two Molotov cocktail-style firebombs and launched multiple commercial-grade fireworks at cops as they attempted to defend the downtown business district and the federal courthouse.

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb

“We should be clear what this was last night, it was about violence and criminal destruction, period,” Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell said during the press conference.

Good thing he explained that to us. CNN certainly won't.

Removing his head from his butt, Wheeler called upon federal, state, county, and local law enforcement partners to work with him to develop “clear plans to address anarchist violence.” He also asked the Oregon Legislature to increase the penalties for people who engage in repeated acts of criminal destruction and vandalism.

Between May and September, prosecutors dismissed more than 70 percent of charges. In one case, charges of attempted murder, attempted assault, arson, possession of a destructive device, and rioting were dismissed against a man who allegedly threw a Molotov cocktail at police officers.

Had he thrown it at Wheeler or his family, perhaps there would have been a different outcome sooner, rather than now.
