OK, a large portion of Trump's thugs are border patrol who don't give a rats ass about the Constitution or even the law for that matter.

Really!

I read his own account of what he did and he chose to get in their faces just as the Feds were responding to vandals beginning to tear down a protective fence. He got what people who deliberately place themselves between police and perps, to obstruct the police, usually get...treated like an accessory to crime.

A Navy veteran said he went to a protest in Portland to talk with the federal agents deployed by President Donald Trump. Instead, he was beaten and sprayed with pepper gas in a confrontation captured in a now-viral video.

Although protests in Portland have been going on for weeks, Christopher David, 53, told the Associated Press he decided to join the protest for the first time Saturday night because he was disturbed by reports of federal officers in unmarked cars arresting people without explanation.

“What they were doing was unconstitutional,” said David, a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and a Navy veteran. ”Sometimes I worry that people take the oath of office or the oath to the Constitution, and it’s just a set of words that mean nothing. They really don’t feel in their heart the weight of those words.”

That doesn't change the other quotes by his own account of what he was doing, when he was doing it, and what else was going on at the time. The guy is an incompetent interventionist. The world is full of them. He got what he bargained for and set a glaring example of how not to do it for others regardless of motive.

Not necessary or useful, you believe Trump sent Feds to protect Federal property and I believe he sent them to make a volatile situation worse so as to paint BLM as lawless.

Yeahbut you're the type who has to drag their politics into other threads to pollute them. Naturally you can rationalize that two wrongs could make a right. Obviously you killed off too many brain cells when you were young. Now speak for me some more about what I believe and we'll see just how well people who live in glass houses do throwing stones.

I did that in this case and am sorry. In my defense, it was an interesting photo.

Partly my fault for putting you on the spot, I asked for background.
Partly your fault explaining instead of giving just enough information to look it up.
But mostly the trolls fault for making a federal case out of it.

1 -- you're not wrong

2 -- you're still a thirsty old troll


CHEERS!
