The same leniency is not being applied to Portlanders exercising their 1A rights…

.@cozca503 is facing protest-related charges and, like Beta, cannot persuade the Portland DA’s office to act in line with the principles new head DA Mike Schmidt ran on to earn election in 2020

Another man murdered by police in Portland — without a hint of justice:
June 24, Michael Ray Townsend called 911 *for help*
With schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder.
But instead cop Curtis Brown shot him twice, killing him
And no charges will be filed
