Antifa allegedly assaults Portland GOP rallygoers, understaffed police struggle to respond
Fox News
The resource-strapped Portland Police Bureau (PPB) reportedly took more than 20 minutes to respond when apparent antifa members assaulted a Saturday campaign event near police headquarters in downtown Portland.
The protesters' violence cut short the event in support of Republican gubernatorial candidate Stan Pulliam, whose platform includes refunding the police.
"This is what happens when a Republican dares to hold an event in Portland to talk about funding our police. Antifa shows up," Pulliam tweeted along with footage of the incident.
