Yeah. Us white guys probably can't really understand how lethal being too dark can be.

Having dealt with Customs and Border patrol a number of times I can’t say I have been impressed - and that is as a middle aged white guy.   I can only imagine what a pain in the ass it has to be for anyone else.   Some of the shit I have seen them pull at airports on private pilots has been astonishing.   Guys with guns with no idea about what is legal and normal for airplanes showing up and hassling people.

The guys had no clue what they were doing, just throwing authority around. And then freaking out 15 minutes later when everyone was having a friendly chat and then the agents  noticed the gun rights banner in the back of the hanger and realizing they had all forgot to ask if anyone was carrying. Ug.

I thought I read they admitted to being Customs & Border Patrol, at least
in Portland.  But yes other reports say that a force was assembled from
various federal agencies so maybe also US Marshals.



They have been using border patrol in questionable ways for awhile, like
setting up roadblocks on highways hundreds of miles from any border.

The National Guard is a state resource. I think he can request it, but I'm
not sure he can command it.

What I read, they were US Marshals, and other unidentified federal
resources.

Yeah, you gotta wonder what their orders were.

Doesn’t a president normally activate the National Guard when extra help is
needed?

These guys were – what?  Homeland Security?  ICE?

What are the young white kids rioting about in Portland?



I am from Oregon, I remember protests in the 60s and 70s over Vietnam.
I also remember a line of State Police walking through a park downtown and busting heads of those that did not clear out.  Actually one of my first
telco bosses had been one of those State Bull Cops.



Are young white kids just aching for a chance at anarchy?  I don’t get it.

Misbehaving while trying to wrap some kind of noble cause around you is
pretty childish.
