h/t to The Gateway Pundit:

Far left communists of “antifa” clashed with the Trump-supporting Patriot Prayer in Portland, Oregon Saturday. Though the groups have clashed several times over the last year and a half, the August 4th edition is shaping up to be like none other, as both groups are upping the ante.

Portland police were bracing for a bloody rally and tried to prevent people from bringing guns to the event.

The rally turned bloody Saturday afternoon after a black clad Antifa thug clubbed a conservative activist with what appears to be a flag.

The conservative activist immediately dropped to the floor–blood was seen gushing from his head.

“Man down. He’s dripping blood from his head. This is serious. He got in a struggle with some black clad dudes over a flag and one of them clubbed him. Video coming,” reported Mike Bivins.

“Video shows a struggle for a flag and then a black-clad person hit this dude in the head before he drops. I was watching the blood pour out of his head and into the street,” reported Mike Bivins.

“POLICE JUST OREDERED ANTIFA (group on the west side of Naito) TO LEAVE THE AREA. Cop on loudspeaker cites armed counterprotesters as the reason,” Mike Bivins.

The last time the two groups squared off was five weeks ago, on June 30th. That protest/rally/march was eventually declared a riot by Portland Police, as the antifa thugs started fighting with Patriot Prayer. Patriot Prayer, led by Joey Gibson, secured a permit from the city on that day to hold their rally and march. Despite that, police used loudspeakers to order everyone to disperse.
