1. Reacción de los Residentes y Líderes de Portland.
Los residentes y líderes de Portland rechazaron la narrativa de una ciudad "asolada por la guerra", destacando la naturaleza pacífica de la mayoría de las protestas y acusando a ICE de provocar conflictos.
- "portlands city leaders and residents are pushing back against ice. Now trump is sending in troops - cnn.".
- "no violence in portland, oregon. The only reason there is any protest is because of ice. If ice was not here, there would be no protests at all. Portland is not war ravaged. That is a big, ugly lie. Iceinportland.".
- "i was in portland last month. It was fine. Protesters outside ice facility is not a war, it is a protest.".
2. Acusaciones de Instigación por Parte de ICE.
Surgieron acusaciones de que los agentes de ICE estaban instigando conflictos con los manifestantes, lo que exacerbó las tensiones y justificó el despliegue de tropas federales.
- "ice keeps instigating conflict and the local police arent playing along. Furthermore the city is about to revoke their lease because of violations.".
- "i guess its portlands turn. As a reminder, this federal invasion is based on protests outside of a single ice facility, where pdx police have reported that federal agents are instigating confrontations.".
- "according to local police, ice agents are instigating violence. Ice is using so many chem weapons that the school nextdoor cant have classes there.".
3. Naturaleza de las Protestas.
Los informes describen las protestas como mayormente pacíficas, a menudo involucrando disfraces, música y tácticas no violentas, contrastando con la narrativa de disturbios violentos.
- "10525 about 20 people protest every night outside an ice facility in portland, or, but while the protesters are insulting they have been ice fishing with donuts on fishing poles, the protests have been peaceful, with very few arrests.".
- "i was at the protest yesterday. We were peaceful. We stayed off ice property. They came out and attacked us with pepper bullets, tear gas, shoving, pepper spraying in eyes. The injustice is horrific.".
- "inflatable antifa frogs are roaming portland in gangs shooting priests and pregnant women, filling the air with tear gas and kidnapping civilians. Wait thats ice".
4. Preocupaciones sobre la Extralimitación Federal.
El despliegue de tropas federales generó preocupaciones sobre la extralimitación federal y la supresión de la libertad de expresión, con llamados a la rendición de cuentas por la conducta de los agentes federales.
- "officials in portland are preparing to revoke ices permit that keeps them running and they are asking questions ice does not want to answer. Thats the real reason trump is illegally sending in the military.".
- "i guess its portlands turn. As a reminder, this federal invasion is based on protests outside of a single ice facility, where pdx police have reported that federal agents are instigating confrontations.".
- "portland needs clear messages on our push back - ice scoops up families those using a legal process, rather than hard criminals - a handful of reg protesters - this is being trumped up as a distraction from price inflation and jobs there are only around 50 protesters. Portland troops".
