Authorities Kill Antifa Extremist Suspected of Pro-Trump Protester’s Murder

Via American Action News:

Michael F. Reinoehl, the far-left radical suspected of fatally shooting Patriot Prayer supporter Aaron J. Danielson, was killed by law enforcement serving a warrant for his arrest Thursday.  

Hours earlier, a Multnomah County judge issued an arrest warrant after VICE posted an interview in which the 48-year-old Reinoehl, a purported Army veteran, admitted to shooting Danielson.

In the interview, Reinoehl claims that he went to the city to provide security for protesters while a parade of Trump supporters drove through the city.  

He claimed that he and a friend were threatened by a man with a knife. “I had no choice. I mean, I, I had a choice. I could have sat there and watched them kill a friend of mine of color. But I wasn’t going to do that.”

He said he gave the interview because “I feel it’s important that the world at least gets a little bit of what’s really going on.” He claims the Trump supporters were “heavily armed” and Danielson “would have maced or stabbed me,” if he would have taken a step forward.  

Since the shooting last week Reinoehl had gone into hiding, paranoid that right-wing protesters were in cahoots with police to hunt him down, which was why he hadn’t turned himself in to authorities. “They made a post saying the deer are going to feel lucky this year because it’s open season on Michael right now.”

Though he maintained his actions were in self-defense, Reinoehl believed that if arrested, the police would “find another way to keep me in.”

Perhaps the knowledge of extended jail time caused Reinoehl to perilously pull a gun on a team of U.S. Marshals, who fired 40-50 shots while they were attempting to serve his warrant.

Maybe it was just paranoia and delusions of grandeur. “Honestly, I hate to say it, but I see a civil war right around the corner. That shot felt like the beginning of a war.”    

Video emerged late Thursday of the aftermath Reinoehl’s deadly last stand. Viewer discretion is advised: the clip includes profanity and Reinoehl’s body is visible in the distance.

The far-left is posthumously elevating Reinoehl to martyr status, claiming he was somehow justified for (allegedly) committing murder and violently resisting arrest.
 

The police just executed Michael Forest Reinoehl as retailation for killing one of their racist ass militia men.

The sitting U.S. president called for the hit.

In reality, President Trump implored local authorities to arrest Reinoehl on Twitter last night out of exasperation. Reinoehl was already dead by that time.
 

Why aren’t the Portland Police ARRESTING the cold blooded killer of Aaron “Jay” Danielson. Do your job, and do it fast. Everybody knows who this thug is. No wonder Portland is going to hell! @TheJusticeDept @FBI
