it's also awfully convenient to assume that only the protesting party is at fault.

- roarcher 4y agoI didn't say "only". I'm responding to GP's assertion that these were "otherwise peaceful protests" if not for "bad actors from eastern Oregon". They're the one claiming it was only the other side. To be clear, I am not taking a centrist "both sides" position. I definitely think the vast majority of the violence and destruction was carried out by BLM and Antifa, in Portland and everywhere else that these riots occurred. But I won't go so far as to say that there were absolutely no saboteurs. I believe there were a handful of documented cases of them.
