Ladle Ghoulash 52,613 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 U.S. federal agents shot two people in Portland, Oregon, on Thursday afternoon. “Two people are in the hospital following a shooting involving federal agents,” Portland police said in a statement. Police said they responded to information that a man who had been shot was calling for help. “Officers responded and found a male and female with apparent gunshot wounds,” authorities said. “Officers applied a tourniquet and summoned emergency medical personnel. The patients were transported to the hospital. Their conditions are unknown. Officers have determined the two people were injured in the shooting involving federal agents.” “We are still in the early stages of this incident,” Day said. “We understand the heightened emotion and tension many are feeling in the wake of the shooting in Minneapolis, but I am asking the community to remain calm as we work to learn more.” Portland Mayor Keith Wilson also spoke about Wednesday’s “horrific” shooting, before commenting on Thursday’s “deeply troubling incident.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/federal-agents-shoot-man-and-woman-in-portland/ We have forgotten our public MANNERS 1 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PEZ 6,592 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 They're escalating so fast. I'd rant but I'm afraid I'd sound like another doomer and we probably don't need more of those online. What the hell can we do? I hope these folks recover. Sorry if off-topic but I appreciate you folks who post and discuss this kind of news here and the mods for moderating the space. Reddit and Twitter are hellholes of racism and some of the comments there just make me even madder on top of the terrible news being reported. ⚡🐲 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALGAYDO 35,072 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I knew violence from ICE would skyrocket after yesterday’s shooting. They know that they’re basically allowed to murder people without consciousness Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphine Prince 109,654 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Homeland Security: At 2:19 PST, US Border Patrol agents were conducting a targeted vehicle stop in Portland, Oregon. The passenger of the vehicle and target is a Venezuelan illegal alien affiliated with the transnational Tren de Aragua prostitution ring and involved in a recent shooting in Portland. The vehicle driver is believed to be a member of the vicious Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. When agents identified themselves to the vehicle occupants, the driver weaponized his vehicle and attempted to run over the law enforcement agents. Fearing for his life and safety, an agent fired a defensive shot. The driver drove off with the passenger, fleeing the scene. This situation is evolving and more information is forthcoming. - Unfortunately, I have to assume everything they say is a lie 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll continue to escalate until you have people shooting back at ICE and border patrol. It'll just continue to dissolve until Trump tries to pull the lever on the insurrection act but by that point...idk, his public support is bottoming out and just today Republican senators joined in on limiting his power. He's in a precarious position imo. Whimsical bitch 2 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
