Violence in Portland escalated late last night as a Trump
supporter was shot and killed, presumably by BLM/Antifa leftists. Portland’s
left-wing newspaper, the Oregonian, reports the bare facts and pretty much
takes the position that the man who was murdered had it coming.
That certainly is what the leftists on the scene think.

On
the 95th night of riots and violent protests in Portland, a conservative rally
attendee was fatally shot.
A
Trump supporter who participated in the Portland caravan rally was shot &
killed in downtown Portland. Antifa & BLM extremists physically blocked
them on the road & threw projectiles. Upon confirming the deceased wasn’t
one of theirs, antifa & BLM cheered & danced in the street outside the
Justice Center.
It
sounds like someone is shouting, “We got a Trumper right here” just before the
shots are fired and the man is killed.

News coverage so far seems to be taking the side of the
murderer(s). E.g, NBC: “Trump praises right-wing supporters and rails against
protesters following unrest in Portland.”
Rioters have always been protesters in the lexicon of the
liberal press. Now murderers are protesters, too.
