ACLU Smoking Crack Again
- The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has now demanded that the Portland Police Department stop using riot gear in response to protests and potential riots.
Sarah Armstrong, spokeswoman for the ACLU of Oregon, said that when police show up in riot gear, it escalates the situation and that police policies should aim for de-escalation, according to KGW. These comments come on the tail end of when police showed up in riot helmets to the illegal Portland Resistance protest on Monday. That protest was partially sponsored by Black Lives Matter PDX.
Well gee, if the "protestors" didn't show up all dressed in black, with masks to conceal identities, weapons to wreak havoc, gas masks to counter dispersal agents, not to mention the extensive historical record of misbehavior and criminality.....
Perhaps if the ACLU showed up naked as an example to all?

The aclu along with the splc are enemies of the republic, plain and simple.
What are ACLU lawyers and its advocates at the bottom of the ocean called?
A good start.
Yuck! I've never seen a ACLU person I would want to see walking around naked.
As a recent Transplant to Portland from Chicago, I have to say I'm impressed with the PPD abilities to handle these "protests." They are not scared to arrest, even the 60 yr old woman who was disobeying orders. They also have a strong backing from the new mayor.
You guys harp on such liberal cities, but the police here are actually allowed to do their job. Plus with a murder rate of 30ish per year, you don't have to concentrate on those type of folks.
I'm sorry you coppers have to deal with all of Chicago's (Political) nonsense. It is why I left.
How fucked up america has become this past decade.
God damn, it never stops
I have to agree with the ACLUeless on this matter. Had the police lined up with mirrors, rather than shields and helmets, they could have reflected the true problem back in the direction of the "peaceful protesters." Reflection would also shed light in to the timely cell phone videos and why police so suddenly become aggressive and arrest these innocent church goers.
How quickly groups like the ACLU and the media forget the bravery of the 5 Dallas Police Officers slain in the line of duty while protecting #blm during a protest march. And now they demand that the police not be properly equipped?
OT - C BS ch. 2 did a slam the police piece on a HBT - SWAT incident. Their expert commentator was a retired Sgt. now a professor who had the audacity to rebuke the SWAT team for not properly clearing the scene. I'm used to hacks like Goudie & Marin slamming us but not a retired colleague. Shame on you, Professor Shalk!

The thought of ACLU women naked makes me want to get out of the SpankDaddy business.
How about a ACLU nope policing day, we and start district by district at random. Tell the citizens 2 days in advance that of Friday you can do anything you want with no police presence or enforcement, the ACLU has done more for crime numbers going down in the future than we can imagine. The record number of dead are theirs to take credit for as well as the future down tick.

Portland is SO liberal that anarchist business's even ban officers from entering. Remember back a couple of years an officer was asked to leave a restaurant and refused service by these idiots. The owner stated he did not want cops in his store....
The last AG tried this in Ferguson MO.....He got replaced....
Let the ACLU attorneys and legal aids stand in the front line without protective gear and see how it goes for them.
You can't make this shit up. There must be something in the Smart water those dumb asses drink.
In response to a prior comment, I have spent time in Portland too and did not find it the kind of place I would leave Chicago for. Don't get me wrong, Chicago is a suck hole and the future here is untenable. But I do not think Portland is some step up. When you leave here for somewhere else, make sure to do your homework. I can assure you the majority of policemen will NOT find Portland some place they want to permanently move to. When someone says they have a new Mayor and things have changed, be wary. In addition to the politicians, the people have to change too. And the people who live in Portland are very much afflicted with the same social issues we have here. The exception is the level of street violence.
Can we picket the ACLU? Will they call the Police?
Anon at 1:18am has a good idea that some tinkerer needs to work on. Mirrored coatings on shields and helmets to show the rioters reflection. The rioters cellphone videos would be so enlightening (and I suspect disappointing to the "protesters"). I doubt it would get much time on the evening news either. Too bad :)
Im recently moved to portland, great city and most like cops. Portland pd takes care of business. Glad I moved here out of the cesspool that is chicago.
In the immortal words of Harry Callahan, What should we do? Show up and tell them Trick or Treat
Riiiiiight. "Peaceful protests".....

If the ACLU are going to make "demands" on the Police, I think it should be their duty, their responsibility to defend Police Officers, at no cost to the Officer or Department, that show up at one of these "peaceful protests" without riot gear, and the Officers have to start shooting assholes that threaten their lives.
Either that or ACLU lawyers show up at all "peaceful protests" unarmed, in security guard uniforms. (Can't use Police uniforms for obvious reasons.)
They have a big mouth but they won't put their ass on the line.
Stay safe Officers.

It might be an effective deterrent to those protesters as well.
There is a very simple response to this that I have yet to hear. RIOT GEAR IS TO PROTECT THE OFFICER. Riot gear is not some sort of weapon. Someone with a voice please tell the ACLU to go fuck themselves and then ask "Should they stop wearing their bullet proof vests too?"

Seems the retired sergeant wasn't 'slamming' anyone at all. Here's a quote from CBS2's article:
"But 2 Investigator Brad Edwards learned members of the Special Weapons and Tactics team made a critical error when clearing the premises.
“When you clear a scene, whether it’s the original officers there or the SWAT officers, that should be a message of safety — that everything is covered,” says Richard Schak, a retired Chicago police sergeant who chairs the criminal justice department at National Louis University.
“It’s a huge mistake and lives could’ve been put at risk,” he says.
That’s because, after clearing the scene, a further search revealed that two other persons were hiding in the crawl space of the attic.
“If I were in charge I would say there’s discipline warranted,” Schak says. “But discipline has many facets. And in this case, discipline would be instructional, rather than just punishment. These officers were trained how to search. But it needs to be reinforced.”
A quick fix would be to have the ACLU stand with the police confronting the thugs The ACLU would then want full body armour. What a bunch of softballs who have never been out front of a mob trying to tell the police how they should be equipped.
Use the members of the ACLU as human shields. Let them absorb the piss, bricks and Molotov cocktails.
Then today President Trump said:
“You finally have a president,” he told the packed room at the 44th annual conference, held this year at National Harbor, Md. “It took you a long time. It’s patriots like you that made it happen.”
(makes you feel proud to be American "America first" for the last 8 years we had nothing done finally we have a real man as President a real leader)
In addition to media bashing, Trump's characteristically muscular speech included a defense of his crackdown on illegal immigration.
"We're getting the bad ones out," he said, explaining that the Department of Homeland Security is prioritizing deportation of illegal immigrant criminals.
"We're checking off the promises we made to the people of the United States," Trump thundered.
(rahm you and the 50 plus tommy and toni better step aside the bullshit you spew is done the "Trump train" is rolling you rahm spent years as chief of staff to obama you could of worked to change the law but didn't, but now you choose to "disobey the alw" and will cost the taxpayers in Chicago over a billion in federal aid)
President Trump Says ‘It’s Time for Americans to Get Off of Welfare’
Tessa Berenson
4:26 PM Central
President Donald Trump said Friday that Americans should stop using welfare.
"It’s time for all Americans to get off of welfare and get back to work," he said during his speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference. "You’re going to love it."
(No more bullshit welfare for the liars, finally watch the crime rate spiral downward, no more free money,free link,any of that aide that if your not working the taxpayers will finally stop that nonsense work or no money perfect finally "making America great again")
Lastly all the talk about Chicago from President Trump you know that soon the feds will be rolling in, bet on it. AG Jeff Sessions is having many meetings planning the Chicago event, lets hope it starts at the center of all the lies city hall, forensic audits are desperately needed, then the county side then the state house, we the people elected President Trump after all the time being the "forgotten men and women" the "deplorable " are rising up the democratic party is nothing more than antagonists bent on retaining power at any cost! Bring in the ICE team, the customs, homeland security to drain the swamp, federalize CPD so we can do the job, we could control 5the streets again if we are supported imagine the crime wave finished! If the citizens stand up and say "no more" and back the police and encourage the feds to be behind us 110% your children would be able to attend school safely, the gangs could be controlled (use federal laws imprison the scum for a longtime)remove all illegal criminals quickly make Chicago great again,safe again, habitability again!
Lastly please almighty God bless our President,and please protect police everywhere in everything they do Amen! #thinbluelineforever
"I have a few solutions for the protesters/rioters. First, obey the law. Get a valid permit and don’t disobey the law while you are protesting. Second, if you break the law, accept and understand that there is a great possibility that you will be arrested. Third, respect authority. If a Portland Police Officer gives you a lawful command, then do it. And lastly, understand that you have no clue about being a Police Officer and riot gear is to protect officers’ lives, not protester’s feelings." Don't know who wrote this but I love him or her and want them to be our next Mayor and Superintendent (Combined spot sine the last two mayors have run the Department anyway, save money).
Only in the Up In Smoke of the Intolerant Liberal NorthWest.
The marijuana fried their brains along ago and you can see the effects on the offspring.
The nonsensical and out of control obamaACLU will find itself shriveling up and faster than the Clinton Campaign.
Thank God and the great Deplorables that Donald J. Trump was elected President of the United States and will return the Supreme Court to normalcy.
Military Surplus is coming back to local law enforcement too.
AMERICA - LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT.
ACLU women naked??? Let me just gouge my eyes out with a rusty knitting needle right now. Nasty, genderless, hairy armpits and legs, with that pasty complexion and stringy, greasy hair, all chanting about how the paramilitary police in their stormtrooper equipment are stepping on their rights. Yep, just what I want to look at. Just like every call for service with a naked woman...never a super-model type prancing around...nope. Always some ghetto wildebeest stuffed on gummint cheese, flaming' hots and purple drank.
SO make em a deal!
Leave all the icky riot gear they whine about at the shop.....and just bring and then USE lots of bullets.
Deal?
Ot...wasn't a slam job ch 2 did on swat. Swat does not check crawl space- puts their guys in danger. They left 2 offenders inside. 4th district guys were inside after swat left executing a SW..asuming that the house had been cleared. They found offenders in crawl space, one of whom shot at the police...left several officers at risk. Ch 2 was right on point!
Another liberal shithole. They are ALL the same.
They cannot be reasoned with, they are too far gone into insanity. Logic and reason matter not a whit, all that is important is optics and platitudes. Data be damned, they will pursue their course until they have eaten all of their seed corn and anyone else's that they can manage to steal.
Best thing a person can do when they reach a majority is move out and leave them to rot. It won't get better, but it sure as hell will get worse (see Detroit).
I had always wondered why there are some many ancient abandoned cities like Ankor Wat. They probably had liberals too.
Then any officer that gets hurt without riot gear should then be able to sue the ACLU for everything they have. Sounds fair to me.

Nice move! From the 11th most liberal city to the 12th.

It's obvious that the members of the ACLU never deals with the criminal element nor has the occasion to venture into the inner city. I would invite them to spend some quality time in the hood, just walk around on a nice hot summer night. If you come out alive, I think your sheltered ignorant view of reality would change. And how many people you are responsible for getting killed with your foolish legal claims. Sometimes certain rights need to adjusted for the greater good and to save lives. If I stop someone with a little less that the full probable cause you demand and that stop prevents that person from robbing, raping and killing your daughter, would you be for or against it? Because this is exactly what was happening before you were allowed to have a say in our department. You and the spineless cowards running this city and department are responsible for the genocide of black lives in this city.
Funny how the swat story comes out when there is a lawsuit pending against the city. Hey media trolls, if there is a terrorist attack like the Pulse nightclub many many more will die here. Because the majority of the swat team would have to load up their personal cars, then drive to the scene, obeying every traffic law. Once there they would have to get through all the traffic mayhem created by the incident, in their personal cars. And in Florida they had to use explosive breaching to get in because the terrorist barracaded the doors. We would just have to gather all the dead because the city refuses to allow explosive breaching in this department. Other smaller departments have multiple armored vehicles, we have 2 that are always breaking down. Yes a big mistake was made, and they will pay the price for it. But if the department keeps treating swat as a necessary evil and refuses to properly equip the team then they will be facing an even greater shortage then they are now. And with DC Carter pushing for more diversity on the SWAT team, things will only get better. In fact DC Carter, you can have it. Morale is at an all time low, everyone is looking for decent escape. The last sign up for trying out had the lowest total ever. Everyone assigned to special functions gets additional pay for advanced skills and knowledge,marine unit, bomb, helo, canine. Except for swat. Why would anyone want to be there, work you ass off and get treated like shit by the department. Carter, bring your guys in, it's all yours.
I would bet that Sarah Armstrong comes from an Ivy League school, silver spoon in her mouth sheltered upbringing. Come spend some time here with us in the Chicago ghetto, become a victim of our violence on public transportation or public schools, then just maybe you would have a clue!
I don't understand why these soros assholes aren't called out. Mayor Buttercup?
This happened in 1969. Command ordered all police to wear soft hats , no helmets, to a downtown demonstration by SDS. A riot quickly ensued and officers were injured as well as States Attorney Elrod. Yeah, I know, I'm an old fart, but at least I got to smack some of those fucks.
wasn't a slam job ch 2 did on swat. Swat does not check crawl space- puts their guys in danger. They left 2 offenders inside. 4th district guys were inside after swat left executing a SW..asuming that the house had been cleared. They found offenders in crawl space, one of whom shot at the police...left several officers at risk. Ch 2 was right on point.
SWAT are whiny cry babies. HBT never missed anyone because we used gas. Lt and the Assistant CO at SWAT should resign. They are not competent. Dumasses.
How does the ACLU have time to mess with Portland? Shouldn't they be here writing our general orders? Rahm?
Pinheads just sitting in their gated community...GFY
Awwwww.....poor babies don't like the big bad meanie police showing up to kick ass and portect themselves? Awwww....GFY!!!!
Next time there is a riot anywhere let the ACLU go out in the streets and handle it, without protection.
