Oregon: No Arrests After Portland Cops Found Far-Right Group's Gun Cache in August
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, in Portland, Oregon, members of the Proud Boys joined another
white supremacist group, Patriot Prayer, in a downtown march on Saturday
where they clashed with anti-fascist activists. This comes as Portland
Mayor Ted Wheeler reveals that on August 4, Portland police found a
hidden group of Patriot Prayer members on a rooftop with a cache of
guns-right before the white supremacists took to the streets for a
rally. No arrests were made that day, and Portland police instead fired
rubber bullets at anti-fascist protesters at the march. Portland Police
Chief Danielle Outlaw later said the counterprotesters were acting like
children and were "mad because I kicked your butt."
