Democrat think: Antifa would never start a fire but the police would

A Portland commissar, err commissioner, Jo Ann Hardesty said:

“I want people to know that I do not believe there’s any protesters in Portland that are setting fires, that are creating crisis. I absolutely believe it’s police action, and they’re sending saboteurs and provocateurs into peaceful crowds so they justify their inhumane treatment of people who are standing up for their rights,”

That shows you where Democrats are. They believe that Antifa which has a long history of violence wouldn't start fires but the Portland police, who put their lives on the line to defend the people of Portland, would.

Clearly Hardesty views the police as the enemy not rioters.

Hardesty has walked back her charge a bit but her "apology" included this:

In a lengthy statement, reported by KPTV, she said that she was “angry, frustrated, and horrified by what has happened these past 50 days” and that she feared someone would be killed “because of an officers’ inability to de-escalate or walk away from a situation.”

Note she doesn't blame the people who are throwing rocks at the police but she's concerned that a police officer might hurt someone in self defense.

Clearly she hates the police and loves rioters.
