Authorities in Republican-run Oklahoma have announced that they are charging rioters with terrorism and assault, warning that they will not put up with “lawlessness here.”
Oklahoma County District Attorney David Prater made the decision to get tough on the rioters in an effort to curb any future potential riots.

“This is not Seattle,” Prater warned Friday. “We’re not putting up with this lawlessness here.”
Dailywire.com reports: The charges, which appear to be for alleged crimes that were committed a couple of weeks ago, also included “five defendants identified as involved in the painting of murals in downtown Oklahoma City this week,” The Oklahoman reported. “They are accused in an incitement to riot charge of interfering with a police sergeant who was trying to take a homicide witness for an interview at police headquarters Tuesday.”
The ACLU criticized the use of the “harshest possible charges” against the alleged rioters.
Prater defended the charges on Sunday, saying, “When you act like a terrorist, you will be treated like a terrorist.”
“The terrorism charges involved the burning of an Oklahoma County sheriff’s van and the damage done to an Oklahoma City bail bonds business,” The Oklahoman reported separately. “One defendant, Isael Antonio Ortiz, 21, of Welch, is charged in both incidents. He was jailed Saturday morning. If convicted, he could be sentenced to life in prison.”
“Several people were carrying flags that were identified as belonging to the following groups: Antifa, Soviet Union, American Indian Movement, Anarcho-Communism (solid red) and the original Oklahoma flag … currently adopted by Oklahoma Socialists,” police reported, according to The Oklahoman. “Several known supporters of anti-establishment organizations were present in the crowd.”
Attorney General William Barr announced late last week that he had created a task force to go after the anti-government extremists who had been causing a lot of the problems across the U.S.
“I am today directing the creation of a task force devoted to countering violent anti-government extremists,” Barr wrote in a memo. “The task force will be co-headed by Craig Carpenito, U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, and Eric Nealy Cox, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas. The task force will include members of United States Attorney’s Offices, the FBI, and other relevant components across the Nation. Drawing particularly on the capabilities of the FBI, the task force will develop detailed information about violent anti-government extremist individuals, networks, and movements – and will share that information as appropriate with federal, state, and local law enforcement, especially in places where these extremists pose a threat.”
Barr specifically mentioned Antifa and other groups and ideologies in his memo, and noted that “some of these violent extremists, moreover, may be fortified by foreign entities seeking to sow chaos and disorder in our country.”
“The task force will also provide training and identify resources to help law enforcement at all levels identify, investigate, and prosecute violent acts by anti-government extremists,” the memo said. “The ultimate goal of the task force will be not only to enable prosecutions of extremists who engage in violence, but to understand these groups well enough that we can stop such violence before it occurs and ultimately eliminate it as a threat to public safety and the rule of law.”

This is all because Oboma had so much blackmail hanging over his head for all his secrets everyone knows anyway that he sold Americas Constitution and the whole of global democracy out for his 5 minutes of fame by selling out the rule of law to an Autocrat from a foreign state .And almost every country on earth has done the same thing .Betrayed their fundamental democratic principles for their own vanity .
The US is a Republic, not a Democracy. The left is trying to turn it into a Democracy. I guess that is why trolls keep calling it a Democracy.
OBAMA HATED AMERICANS AND AMERICA…WE SUFFERED FOR 8 STRAIGHT EARS…
They know who they are, bring the hammer down, end of story!
Flags of antifa? Soviet Union? Are we going insane?
None of this MF, has ever been part of a socialist regimen, they have no idea what they are for, but, good for OK, as they said, act like a terrorist, be treated like one!!
That’s what I was thinking…since when do we fly the russian flag or the flag of a murderous terrorist group like antifa?
THANK YOU OKLAHOMA…
I only have two words to say, “PRAISE GOD!”
Agree 100%! God bless Oklahoma!
These radical groups are being supported by the Communist Party, George Soros’s Open Society, and major American companies like Nike, Disney, Star Bucks, CAIR, and the NFL.
And what sources are you citing, dear? Or just parroting!
There are many. Why don’t you Google it? Better yet, use an unbiased source like Duck Duck Go.
Move to Mexico!
Joaquin – I know it’s difficult for a maroon like yourself to read but look at BLM’s own website which describes themselves as communist marxist.
Life prison sentence in Gitmo!
Welcome to the United States of China.
By all means, feel free to relocate to another country that welcomes destruction and chaos and third world conditions. You won’t be missed, Skippy. https://media2.giphy.com/media/VDYErNCTyG0XHGdrcv/giphy-downsized-medium.gif
Go back to Spain!
Troll…!!
IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT, PLEASE LEAVE…WE WON’T STOP YOU
SOUNDS GOOD TO ME
Next it will be Marshall Law. Oklahoma is just the test run.
Welcome to the new USA BANANA REPUBLIC, where the KKK and White Supremacy is encouraged to lynch while everyone else is treated as a terrorist.
You will have your autocrat lead by Captain Bone Spur, the very stable genius, and dissolution of the American experiment with democracy.
I agree rioters must be punished but not in a draconian Hitlerian way.
You are complacent and asking for a dictator and you will enjoy one sooner rather than later.
smh… you do not set fire to a police van and expect to get off lightly.
And “martial” law will be what happens if the protesters get their wish in taking police off the streets.
It isn’t “marshall law”. The correct term is “martial law” The arrest of terrorists, lawbreakers and vandals does not equate martial law. You really seem to be ignorant. Terrorism has nothing to do with race.
Marshall Law? Is that any relation to Marshall Dillion or Marshall Mathers? lmao Dumbass.
Move to Spain!
Tell that to Catholicon as well please!
Are you that stupid naturally or did you have to study at it…. I live in Oklahoma and am PROUD of the state and local government……
you should be. Unfortunately, I’m a republican living in New York City. I have to tolerate the garbage that goes on in my city. I wish Mayor Guiliani would come back.
lol goyish Antichrist libturded mutt
Troll.
YOUR IGNORANCE IS ASTOUNDING. America has existed in peace for hundreds of years and has been the envy of the world. We, Americans, want it to continue as it has existed…so, if you don’t like it, please go away
Way to go Oklahoma!! Where BS is not going to happen!!!
I am tempted to move back there.
I AM SO VERY PROUD OF OKLAHOMA – WOULD THAT MORE STATES WOULD DO THE SAME THING. THE RIOTING WOULD STOP EXCEPT FOR THE PERMISSIVE DEMORAT RUN STATES AND CITIES.
YES!!!! Finally America has found law and order. Long time coming..
Sorry Maggie, unfortunately you are wrong. America has not found law and order. It has never been lost, but too many people are being bought by the Marxists/socialists/globalists to destroy America, and thank God there are still some moral states that have law and order as part of their agenda. I live near Seattle and it is run by a socialist mayor. She says the riots are just kids having a fun summer, so leave them alone. Stinking Portland is as bad.
Bravo. Finally someone is willing to stand up to these thugs and those who support the communists should be deported to China/N.Korea even if they are US citizens! MAGA2020!
maggot commie AIPAC muppet
WHAT DOES AIPAC HAVE TO DO WITH THIS? U’RE JUST A FILTHY ANTISEMITE AND U’RE USING THIS SITUATION TO GIVE VOICE TO YOUR HATE…GO TO HELL
bibi meleikowsky is an ARYAN gentile/heathen ANTICHRIST of the ARYANS’ R1a Y-DNA Haplogroup, retarded loser that *IS* going to HELL!

Better late than never!
start at the top.we all know who are the leaders of these groups,they all went on t.v saying so.
I keep praying to God to get rid of the terrorist supporter George Soros and stop him from destroying our country..
Trump warned them they wouldn’t be coddled like they were in a blue state if they tried that here.
Hooo-Raaahhh!!!
I’m starting to think I could live in Oklahoma. The people there seem to know what’s right and they it like it is. Send these people to Guantanamo Bay for an adjustment in their attitude. I think if you we would start holding them there until their trial. I’d say after seeing this, things would settle down. Now the radicals face no penance for what they destroy, so do you think they are going to stop. I don’t think so. This whole mess is an attempt to over t
throw the government of The United States. Give them the same thing we gave the Germans and The Japanese in their attempt to take us over. These people deserve it.
Finally, someone takes a stand against these thugs
At last a police department that takes their job seriously.
Release the names of those arrested and what cities and states they are from. Willing to bet they were bused in!
There are protesters and there are terrorists! Who doesn’t know the difference?? I said it from the beginning, they need to be arrested! Who pays for all that damage, guess who? I am fully in favor. Those destroying are not protesters!!!!!
Kick ass and take names later. They are all terrorists trying to ruin our country
Can everybody say? Conservative Governor and Mayors.
Everybody shouild read the book “To the Victor go the Myths and Monuments” It tells the true history of our country and explains how and why the terrible things are happening today. If you beleive our Civl War was about slavery and the north vs the south, you will be in for a huge scary surprise.
That is only true in conservative cities and states. Other places don’t make the criiminals do the time.
Portland Police charged a bunch of “protesters” with terrorism and other laws which would have put them in jail for extended periods. Then they went to court and the DA dropped all the charges. It doesn’t matter what the Police charge them with; it only matters if the DA and Judge back them up. Hopefully the prosecution and Judges in Oklahoma have better sense than the ones in Oregon.
THANK GOD OKLAHOMAN’S TAKE THE PROPER PRIDE IN THEIR FREE AND NORMALLY SAFE COUNTRY…. GOD BLESS AMERICA AND THE DEDICATED CITIZENS IN IT THAT PROTECT US ALL !!!
