Proud Boys in Portland are illegally stopping bicyclists & interrogating them

4:51 PM · Sep 26, 2020

So, two dudes stopped a guy on a bicycle and talked to him, for ~30 seconds.  Eventually two or three more come around them, but not close. No raised voices, no threatening gestures, nobody looks angry or afraid. Some Prog "journalist" mountainized an ant hill, and Nevilledog bought the hyperbole.

The embedded video is interesting for things not in it: no pyrotechnic flashes or noises; no lasers for blinding police; no windows being smashed; no looting; no masked crowd of shout and gesticulating people. One thing it does show is that all of the supposed "Proud Boys" ("we" have to take the "journalist's" word that they are "Proud Boys" and his video isn't Antifoid street theater) are wearing masks.

1. Someone should tell them that

they are going to detain the wrong person. It will be a little guy that does not look threatening.

And then they are going to find out that those helmets won't stop a kick to the nuts.

3. Why are they stopping them and what right do they have to stop people?

Is this a protest or Proud Boys' picnic? WTF?

Self-reflection is absent from this one.

23. You do realize that a majority of cops are white supremacists? There is no 911 call on this.

6. SOMEONE NEEDS TO ****ING ARREST THEM!

I'm so sick of how they keep coddling these terrorists. :banghead: [explosion emoticon]

There are more "explosions" in Crunchy Frog's post than in that video clip. The cyclist in the video was so un-terrorized by the few "Proud Boys" (if that's who they really are) that neither he nor the "Proud Boys" raised his/their voices or make any significant gestures. There is no way in a clown-college that this video clip could be said to be comparable to any of the many videos of BLM/Antifoid types surrounding a car, pounding on it, breaking its windows, and assaulting the driver. Much less comparable to the poor lady the BLMers murdered at the burned down Atlanta Wendy's.

7. Guess they gotta do something after their impotent little demonstration fizzled

They should learn to keep their grimy little mitts off other people's property.
Does the same apply to the BLM looters????

Meh, sounds like a completely peaceful protest.  Unless the Dems are going to come out against demonstrations stopping traffic, it doesn't look like they have any room to throw stones.

Ummmmm, in the video the only time one of the supposed "Proud Boys" touched "other people's property" was when one briefly grabbed hold of the cyclist's back tire. Since it was in a public place and no damage was done it was little different from touching a car in a parking lot.

Mountainizing ant hills doesn't work when there's video showing the ant hill is nothing more than an ant hill. :rotf:  :tongue:

Stopping a guy on a bike is a  criminal offense, but pulling someone from their car or truck and beating them unconscious is fine.

Or causing extensive damage as they try to leave.

Rioting is "democracy at work", but the presence of Proud Boys constitutes a state of emergency.

Oh, and I'm hearing that not much happened. Likely because the Proud Boys outnumbered the soi-disant anti-fascists.

Also likely because the "Proud Boys" are not violent people.
