SEE IT: Antifa Rioters Sow Chaos in Oregon, Attacking MAGA Crowd

Will Oregon officials ever regain control of their state?

In the Pacific Northwest, it appears as though political violence has become a way of life.

Portland, Oregon has long been the epicenter of leftist violence here in the United States, as Antifa and their allegedly-unorganized cohorts continues to target municipal buildings, courthouses, police stations, and more.  This has been ongoing for months, with a number of national leaders imploring local officials to put an end to the nonsense to no avail.

Now, in Salem, Oregon, the situation turned wildly out of control over the weekend as Antifa violently clashed with conservatives in the streets.

Salem Police arrested at least three people and urged others to stay away from Oregon’s State Capitol building Sunday evening as violence linked to Antifa-aligned protesters broke out.

The “heavily armed” crowd had grown to as many as 200 people, Fox 12 Portland reported. The chaos unfolded as a planned right-wing protest and Antifa counter-protest were scheduled in Salem for the same day.

Police received reports of vehicles driving past the Capitol being struck with balloons filled with paint as well as green lasers being pointed at drivers.

Images from the scene were soon circulating on social media.

The situation could have turned far worse, however, as police state that one of those arrested during the melee had pulled a firearm before being detained.
