For the third time this week, a riot was declared in Portland late Friday night
after insurgents demanding social justice caused widespread damage to
businesses and a church that feeds the homeless weekly.

A group of several hundred left wing extremists people marched through
Portland on Friday. During the BLM protest, the crowd chanted, "If we don't get
it, shut it down!" and "Black lives matter!"

The Portland Police reported looting and some stores were vandalized with anti-
cop graffiti. There were also reports of gunshots. Some rioters destroyed the
storefront windows of Nordstrom, Verizon, Nike, Starbucks, and banks.

"Windows were also broken at the First Christian Church, a location known
for their generosity in feeding over a thousand meals weekly to the
homeless," the Portland Police Bureau reported.

"These are the people feeding the unhoused and telling the story of racial
injustice in Oregon. It just doesn't make sense," a downtown Portland
resident told Shane D. Kavanaugh, a reporter with The Oregonian.

The Oregon Historical Society was also damaged; vandals wrote: "NO MORE HISTORY."

To be fair, the kind of people who riot and loot are just scumbags with no moral integrity, so regardless of whatever excuse they're using to riot, the "reason" goes out the window.

Moreover, when it comes to bloated capitalist pigs like Apple, any show of solidarity is likely just a feat of "virtue signalling" rather than true compassion, so it's a case of nothing of value being lost, at the hands of the valueless.
