BREAKING NEWS – Portland, Oregon – Protesters in Portland, Ore., have defiantly fortified their position at the “Red House on Mississippi” after Mayor Ted Wheeler authorized police to use “all lawful means” in ending the illegal occupation at the home.

The following day, occupiers had stockpiled defensive gear and laid down booby traps aimed to keep officers out, including piles of rocks and homemade spike strips to puncture the tires of any vehicles that could breach the barricades, according to reports. And in just in case the confrontation turned deadly, the protesters demanded that they be given an equal amount of guns and bullets as the police, plus they wanted an authorized person to come to the Red House on Mississippi, and train them on firearm safety and SWAT maneuvers ”
