Leaked chat logs show Portland-area pro-Trump activists planning and training for violence, sourcing arms and ammunition and even suggesting political assassinations ahead of a series of contentious rallies in the Oregon city, including one scheduled for this weekend.
The chats on the GroupMe app, shared with the Guardian by the antifascist group Eugene Antifa, show conversations between Oregon members of the Patriots Coalition growing more extreme as they discuss armed confrontations with leftwing Portland activists, and consume a steady diet of online disinformation about protests and wildfires.
At times, rightwing activists discuss acts of violence at recent, contentious protests, which in some cases they were recorded carrying out.

Not surprising at all

The Guardian is an extreme far left rag.
Funny how this is a thing for liberals to whine about since you losers have been destroying the country with your riots, looting and murders.

Did they??? Cuz the only violence I see that was plotted AND carried out was by the Portland rioters who tried to burn down a building with people inside, destroyed property, assaulted people, etc. This is a war, and your guys probably made that crap up or wrote it themselves.

It's odd that liberals can't point to any specific event by conservatives, but we have over a decade of liberal violence in Portland, Seattle and others.
YouTube is full of videos showing liberal violence going way back to before Obama and each year it getting worse.

These scumbags should be rounded up and put in prison.

I agree with you Bear. They certainly should. They should be rounded up and put in prison for looting, assaults, murders, arson, etc. NO Conservatives are doing any such thing. Name one case where Conservatives are doing any such thing. Go ahead…. we're patient. ONE. That's all.
