From happy-clappy Portland – on day 21 of the ongoing intifada:
A Portland resident confronts Antifa for blaring music past midnight at the ongoing ICE facility occupation:
“I’m coming back every night and I’m breaking your sh-t. We the people need sleep. You’re worse than ICE, terrorizing us every night. Go f-ck yourself.” pic.twitter.com/gpDBdPYiuP

Attention, comrades. You will learn to love the explosions, fires, and shouting, the round-the-clock banging of things against other things, and the shrill, unending high-frequency tones, heavily amplified. Because sleep is a luxury of the bourgeoisie.
I paraphrase, of course. Though not, I think, unfairly.
Because spite is the sweetest plum.
Immediately after the resident complained, Antifa increased their noise disturbance.
The group has created a makeshift LRAD system, blasting it at the ICE office around 1 am. Federal police responded so a vehicle could exit.
Note: none of this noise is coming from ICE/DHS. pic.twitter.com/O03uagtIi2

And readers with a taste for irony may appreciate the exchange in the first video, around 30 seconds in, during which Generic Antifa Bint says to the disgruntled resident, “Talking to us calmly would be a hell of a lot better.” The same Generic Antifa Bint whose comrades carry megaphones, fireworks and drums, and who spend their evenings torturing local residents, and presumably any pets, with a loudspeaker sound cannon.
Update 2:
For readers intrigued by the lack of law enforcement, Andy Ngo has been querying the inactivity of Portland’s Police Department.
Which is, we learn,
Even, it seems, when those individuals are quite literally disturbing the peace. Such that local residents are being robbed of sleep, night after night, and despite such protests – or, more accurately, fits of sociopathy – violating Portland’s laws on public noise.
Such is policing in an age of progress.
Consider this an open thread. Share ye links and bicker.
