Barr Statement On Portland
Comments Off on Barr Statement On Portland
Lots of different things going on all across the country. The country’s attention has been mostly focused on the two conventions although shootings and lootings have remained a constant in many cities.
Recently a District Court in Oregon had granted an injunction that would have hampered the ability of federal law enforcement to protect and defend federal property in Portland and elsewhere. On its surface it appears that this injunction would have prevented the use of crowd-control measures like tear gas and pepper spray if news reporters, photographers, legal observers, and other neutrals were present.

Does anyone remember a year ago when violent crime in London caught up to New York City? Those days are long gone. New York City is seeing the highest crime rates so far this century. Overall violence is up more than 130 percent from last year. The violence is rampant, and it includes assault, theft, homicide and rape.
This may be hard to believe but in L.A., the story is substantially worse. The LAPD has reported that homicides alone are up 250 percent since before the riots started. And homicides in L.A. have become increasingly brutal.
