In 2016, Portland videographer Mike Strickland, finding himself surrounded and threatened by a crowd of Antifa protestors, pulled out a legally-owned and legally-carried (valid CHL holder) pistol to defend himself. The crowd backed away. No shots were fired.

He was found guilty on 21 counts, including 10 felonies!!! His appeal is now heading to SCOTUS.

Case of Portland Man Who Defended Himself . . .

The SC will refuse to hear the case and the lower court ruling will stand.

The Portland City politicians do appear to be in league with the devil = Communists.

In this case, appearance is reality, wrong as it may be.

So if he didn't have a gun, or any way to defend himself, and this Antifa crowd maimed or killed him,

would those in the crowd been held accountable? I highly doubt it...

these antifa punks have been trying to lock people in a building and then burn the building down...

they needed to be rounded up and thrown in jail... and then burn the jail down...

It's a one-way street to jail in that crazy place.

A preview of what they want for the whole country. Sort of the movie "A Clockwork Orange" in reality.

It looks like they intentionally targeted Strickland the day he was accosted and pursued. He'd been reporting on the "Portland Protesting Crowd" for a long time, and doing a good job of showing how ridiculous they were. They'd always left him alone, until they didn't.

It also looks like his lawyers threw him under the bus, opting for a bench trial because they feared the jury pool wasn't promising. They thought it was open-and-shut self-defense, and that he would be cleared. They didn't bother to defend him much.

Local DA needs paid a visit.

So, someone who successfully defended himself against an attack from overwhelming numbers of terrorists without actually hurting anyone is guilty of all sorts of felonies. Yet a man who assassinates a Trump supporter is still out walking around last I checked. Rioters are arrested and then immediately released by prosecutors who are “down with the cause”. These DAs and judges need to be charged with civil rights violations, ie. equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment. We’re dealing with evil people who have no problem using their positions, under the color of law, to go after their political enemies.

Are you awake yet?

"Local DA needs paid a visit."

Do you mean one of the local George Soros plants?

I've read the appellate decision. The Supremes will not take this case. Very unfortunate he was in Portland 'cause a gun owner acting in self defense will never get justice in that town.

Just more reinforcement of the notion that it's best to stay out of the liberal schitt-hole cities.

Your rights are not you rights there & if you don't believe that, this should be enough proof to satisfy anyone with half a brain.

Trump could pardon him at any time.

Stay away from crowds - Ol’ Remus

amen until it shows up at your front door.

Nope. It's not a federal crime.

Ah schitt. You're right. I didn't think about that.

Some here on the fire advocate jumping in and not using your head. Glad to see this post. Are you paying attention Cashisking?

Apparently the local DA, Mike Schmidt, is buddies with one of the Antifa leaders.

And didn't recuse himself?
Conflict of interest !

Not in Potland Mark.....They make up there own rules as needed, when needed...

The Potlandia D.A. is more guilty of breaking the law, than this guy Strickland ever is...
