A videographer tried filming Portland Antifa militants who'd gathered Saturday to protest a Ku Klux Klan rally — which turned out to be canceled — and was soon chased by the threatening Antifa mob himself.
"They had concealed objects or weapons in their hands," Nate Millsap — who runs the Stumptown Matters YouTube page and documents Portland rallies and protests — wrote in the description of the clip he recorded. He added that one of the masked Antifa militants was "approaching me while shaking a can of pepper spray. I wanted no part of whatever intentions they had for me so I immediately abandoned my camera duties and sprinted to safety."
Millsap quickly encountered police decked out in riot gear at the city's Justice Center — and one might assume that would've taken care of his worries, as members of the brave Antifa mob stopped chasing him at that point but continued to yell at him, calling him a "b***h."
But the cops had little sympathy for the video journalist, telling him if he goes back toward the Antifa mob, "we're not gonna come out and save you" adding that "you better come up with a different plan, like maybe go somewhere else, dude."
When conservative journalist Andy Ngo picked up on the video, he asked Portland police to comment on the officer's declaration that he wouldn't help Millsap, who was simply doing his job and exercising his right to shoot video of a public event.
Ngo said police wrote back to him, not answering his inquiry but saying "just because an arrest is not made on the spot, it does not mean that an arrest won't be made in the future."

Why should a cop protect someone who was warned it was dangerous to proceed.
Should the police follow you into a all black bar so you can use the N word?

These people, like any real American despise Nazis and came out to combat the threat posed to our nation by fascists and Nazis. In this instance the presence of the Antifascist patriots achieved its goal sending the Nazi scum packing with tails between their legs. The action the police took was not “protecting ANTIFA” they were doing their job of keeping the peace. The cameraman in question was not a member of the fourth estate filming a news event, he is a Nazi propagandist attempting to provoke a violent response he could get on tape. The police as they are trained to do in any such situation separated people who were hostile to each other in order to maintain a semblance of peace.

I usually ignore your half-baked comments, but this is too much.
Why should any citizen be afraid to walk an American street, especially when there are police present and, it appears, the bad guys are already breaking the law?

So they keep the peace by allowing the Antifa thugs to assault a citizen? That's pretty nonsensical, even for you.

No, they told a Nazi propagandist that he should walk away rather than charge into a crowd of Nazi fighting patriots. Damn good advice.

LOL. Typical liberal response: I have nothing else so I will call you a Nazi/racist/sexist/homophobe...

They've been named a HATE group, does that tell you anything? Such as they are *hired guns* who can't throw a punch to save their lives. Ngo is a journalist, look him up. Oh put the pipe down first.

Okay going with this logic antifa is first on the bus.

It's their job. Not fun, is it?

They told a journalist to be careful? So they didn't want to do their jobs, I would have. They are paid assassins, I hope Soros got his moneys worth, when we meet the ending will be very different.
