50 Police in Antifa Controlled Portland Have Decided to Retire

Talk about being between a rock and a hard place. Defending the Alamo was a safer job than being a policeman in Portland, and it’s about to get much worse.

The Portland city officials have reached out to Black Lives Matter’s DeRay McKesson to help them write a new contract for Portland police. If a jury of snowflakes decides that a policeman makes the wrong decision when they only have a fraction of a second to make their choice, it could lead to life in prison.

The problem is the policeman or woman could have made the right decision, and they could still be locked up for the rest of their existence.

The Oregonian reports:

Staff for Portland Commissioners Jo Ann Hardesty and Chloe Eudaly met Thursday with national Black Lives Matter activist DeRay Mckesson to strategize over the city labor contract with the Portland police officers’ union, an official in Hardesty’s office said.

Mckesson, 33, met with the officials as part of his work managing Campaign Zero, a group that reviews police union contracts nationwide and points out what it says are policies that shield officers from accountability for misconduct.

The official in Hardesty’s office said Mckesson gave “a detailed presentation about policing, contracts, accountability and their relationship to violence.”

Also present at the meeting were members of the Albina Ministerial Alliance Coalition for Justice and Police Reform, a faith-based group seeking greater police oversight.

Baltimore-based Mckesson wears many hats: Civil rights activist, author, podcast host and one-time mayoral candidate, among other work. He was in Portland on Wednesday for a taping of his podcast, Pod Save the People, for which Hardesty was a guest. Hardesty’s office asked him to extend his trip to give a briefing on the police contract, the official said.

Mckesson tweeted his take on Thursday’s meeting to his more than 1 million Twitter followers, saying he led a talk with “activists and advocates” to “discuss avenues for structural change.”
