Portland Police had enough of Antifa smashing windows and rioting in the streets Friday night so they kettled the large mob and made arrests.
Kettling is a police tactic for controlling large crowds during a protest.
Police cordoned off a street in Portland’s Pearl District and said all persons within the limited area will be temporarily detained.
About 100 goons were kettled and 13 arrested.
“You are being detained for the investigation of a crime,” Portland Police said.

He/She whined about being boxed in.
This is new. There has never been an actual kettle in Portland. No mass arrests
Someone just threw a bottle at the cops

The left wasn’t happy with Portland Police for kettling rioters…because the tactic actually works.

“Those that were being detained were identified and photographed, as part of a criminal investigation, before being released,” PPB said in a release early Saturday. “Some refused to comply and locked arms together in an effort to interfere with the investigation. Officers escorted them away and they were arrested.”
“As the event unfolded, groups formed on the outside and physically challenged officers. Some threw rocks and full cans of beer at officers,” PPB said. “Officers deployed some OC spray and one impact munition.”
