Last night, College Republicans invited conservative blogger Michael Strickland to @Portland_State. Event got shut down by anarchist who came w/a bell. Strickland was to speak about his conviction related to him brandishing a gun at a mob who surrounded him at a 2016 BLM protest. 
One anarchist antifa disruptor with a bell was able to shut down the Michael Strickland @Portland_State College Republicans speech as soon as the event began. Campus police & admin were there but just stood & watched. They said they couldn't do anything about the disrupter.
The person who shut down the College Republicans Portland State event then went to the front and blocked the projector so that the speaker couldn't play a video. This continued for more than an hour while police watched.
Speaker attempted to give his speech to live stream but the disruptor followed & continued ringing bell. @Portland_State has no policies in place to deal w/disruptions at student-organized events. Police will only intervene when there is violence or property destruction.
After event, BLM & open borders flyers were posted all over @Portland_State. For the record, I was a witness to the ‘16 incident that blogger Strickland was convicted over. I saw angry protesters w/sticks surround & move him out of the BLM protest before he brandished his pistol.
I have been mobbed & threatened by antifa for photographing them in public so I have some understanding of what Strickland probably went through. I would not carry a weapon to a volatile political protest. Still, 10 felony convictions seems excessive.
I have uploaded the video of the College Republicans at PSU getting shut down last night on YouTube. They invited conservative blogger Michael Strickland to speak. Campus police (@PSU_CPSO) & @Portland_State admin just stood & watched. #antifa
This is the statement @Portland_State released today on why nothing was done when the event got shut down for over an hour. The disrupter & his friends got tired of yelling & eventually left. facebook.com/PortlandStateU…
In @IngrahamAngle opening segment tonight, she blasted @Portland_State for its mishandling of the #antifa College Republicans event shut down. 17 administrators were invited to give their side of the story. All declined. Link to full segment:
