> ” but it is my impression that a lot of the unrest in Portland was at least in part due to the swarm of federal law enforcement (no identification = no accountability) that were dropped-off” It isn’t. Show me anything that shows that the majority of protestors in any city in the United Stated during the George Floyd protests were violent Nobody is claiming that the majority were violent. I’m not sure why that would be relevant. |

I tend to feel that this narrative is a relatively accurate representation of reality:
“Ever since the Feds showed up, it’s been like war," protester Ted Park, 31, said, coughing as tear gas drifted through the air. "It feels like it’s re-escalated.”
