Two arrested in Portland after Trump supporters, Proud Boys clash with far-left demonstrators



At least two people were arrested Monday after Trump supporters traveling from the Portland suburbs clashed with far-left counter-protesters outside the Oregon State Capitol.

Ty Parker, 53, of Durango, Colo., was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor assault and first-degree intimidation. Trenton Wolfskill, 37, of Eugene, Ore., was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor assault, The Oregonian/OregonLive reported, citing an Oregon State Police spokesperson. Both have since been released.

Videos posted on social media showed several dozen people wearing military fatigues, pro-Trump T-shirts and bearing clothing and flags labeled with the names of the far-right groups Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys, gathered on the steps of the Oregon State Capitol building in Salem, Ore. Several in the group later rushed toward a slightly smaller group of counter-protesters.

I noticed the wording doesn't include 'far right demonstrators'...The Proud Boys are nothing more than right wing racist agitators. All this violence won't end well. At some point, Americans need to start talking about the real issues, the root of the problem and stop blaming or ignoring issues. The world must think we have just totally lost our minds. I don't know what the answer is but it isn't a president who constantly stokes the flames with divisive rhetoric. Wake up people, war within ourselves leaves us vulnerable for war with an enemy and the perfect time to strike.

I assume those arrested were Pro-Trump otherwise they would have been identified.

Using your logic 313, I'm surprised they were even arrested.
