https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/10/02/naked-bike-protest-portland-trump/86473549007/ In Portland, it's not odd to see throngs of naked bicyclists covered in bright body paint riding through the city. But this year, a familiar sight is striking a more political tone.
Organizers for the group World Naked Bike Ride Portland announced plans for an "Emergency" event to protest the Trump administration’s deployment of federalized National Guard troops to the liberal stronghold.
"Emergency World Naked Bike Ride coming up in response to the militarization of our city," a post on the group's Instagram said. "Plans are being worked on."
Organizers did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A date for the protest has not yet been provided.
Portland has hosted annual naked bike rides since 2004 as a statement on cyclists' rights, body positivity and a protest against fossil fuel companies. The event draws thousands of cyclists to the streets where they bare it all. In Oregon, public nudity is legally considered a form of protest.
The planned anti-Trump cycling protest is not affiliated with Portland World Naked Bike Ride, the group that hosts the largely attended annual event. The offshoot, named World Naked Bike Ride Portland, has hosted protests in recent years including a nude ride against Zenith Energy, a fuel storage company that has faced scrutiny over its terminal along the Willamette River in northwest Portland.
Naked cycling culture has taken hold in cities across the United States, and the rides themselves often address local issues. Last month, a nude bike ride was held in Houston to advocate for better cycling infrastructure and protest the removal of a protected bike lane.
Many of the rides – including the one protesting National Guard troops in Portland – are unaffiliated with the organization World Naked Bike Ride, which has held rides in New Zealand, Mexico, Argentina, Japan, Canada and more than a dozen other countries.

>Reminder that every single witness on the scene didn't hear the police identify themselves before they shot him. Oh yes those witnesses that were across the street and couldn't see a fucking thing, but they know for a fact Reinoehl had his hands up and was surrendering despite Reinoehl saying he's willing to die for his cause.
>*ring ring* Hang on one sec, I got a phone call... Hello? Oh hi Ferguson! How's that "Hands Up Don't Shoot" thing going?
>Anyways, continue coping that your single shooting doesn't equal "WE NEED MILITARY SUPPORT!" Speaking of shooting, me and my fiance` are about to go to the gun range in like 3 minutes so I'll have to continue this conversation in an hour or so. Don't worry, we'll go over and over and over and over and over and over again what actually happened with Reinoehl - while you continue to ignore the fact that even if half the bullshit you said about him being assassinated was true (it isn't) it would've been a fitting justice for him assassinating Danielson in the first place.

>>1444777 https://www.portland.gov/mayor/keith-wilson/news/2025/8/8/portland-sees-decline-violent-crime-homicides-down-51-first-half Looks like Portland is doing a pretty good job of managing their own crime. Fifty-one percent decrease in homicides seems pretty good to me. Don't get me wrong, Portland's crime rate is still pretty high, and the levels, while decreasing, are still higher than pre-pandemic. However, Trump is not interested in reducing crime, he wants to punish blue cities that oppose him. Let Portland sort it out, and if they can't the city fails on its own.
Also, you could pick a better example. I don't like antifa faggots either, but driving a pro-Trump convoy through Portland seems like a great way to get yourself targeted by them, especially if you're a high profile organizer.

That's not even considering the Posse Commitatus Act that they're somehow allowed to skirt around. Fact is the military ain't gonna do shit but prove a political point and Portland is gonna be left with the same underlying conditions that lead to crime. The Trump administration ripping funding from them ain't gonna help with that either. Takes forever to curb crime and you need enforcement and a decent economy. Occupation for a week or two ain't it.

>>1444804 >Crime isn't being curbed because the police are controlled by the mayor, and the mayor is sympathetic to Antifa, the same way that the Seattle mayor unironically simped for BLM and the CHAZ There's been similar things happening Nationwide. I noticed after the police reforms that happened as a result of the 2020 race riots, where I was living at the time the mayor (or maybe it was city council?) instructed the city DA to stop prosecuting drug crimes and instructed the PD to not give chase to criminals unless they were involved in a violent or sexual crime. At the same time they cut back police funding for officers significantly and replaced them with "crisis outreach officers".
What ended up happening is crime rates immediately lowered because:
1) drug crimes went unprosecuted
2) property crimes were not investigated, and police were not sent out to take a report meaning that if you were victim to a property crime, you would actually have to go into a police station to file a report, which most people simply just didn't do meaning that even though people would call in and say a crime had happened, it would never actually be reported because nobody would come out to file the report
We wound up with literally oceans of bums that would just smoke crack in the middle of the crosswalk for about 2 or 3 years or so until the leadership got voted out and they started prosecuting drug crimes again.
Police funding has increased, I'm not sure how the whole property crime thing is still being handled because honestly as soon as they started clearing out the drug addicted bums from everywhere. I stopped seeing property crime almost completely

>>1444848 What's the big dispute here btw?
Reinoehl was another far left radical assassin who committed a murder based on political motives. He admitted to this.
Unless if there is compelling evidence that he was shot in the back without any prior warning, I have no sympathy for the die guy dying by being shot during an operation to arrest him
He lived by the sword and died by the sword. I'd honestly prefer that outcome over him polluting our criminal justice system and costing society even more money

>>1444879 I had to just look on Wikipedia to see what the official story is, and besides a literal "he was just on his way to get Skittles and candy" All witnesses either describe him as having a gun, reaching for his waist, or not having seen it at all
There were conflicting witness reports immediately after the event:[57]
One witness was reported as saying she saw Reinoehl fire first.[55] However, according to another account, the same witness said she was not present when the shooting began.[20]
Another witness told The New York Times that he saw two SUVs approach the area quickly around 6:45 p.m. and then heard gunshots over a period of one and a half minutes.[8] He said that he saw a man next to a white pickup, walking backwards and appearing to hold a gun while officers fired at him.[8]
Two witnesses working nearby were reported to have said that Reinoehl was in a car outside an apartment complex when two unmarked SUVs converged on Reinoehl's car. Reinoehl then got out of the car and fired 40 to 50 rounds from what appeared to be a semi-automatic rifle at the SUVs before officers returned fire.[58] One of the witnesses later said he and his coworker were misquoted and he was unsure whether Reinoehl had a weapon.[59]
Another witness said he heard 30–40 gunshots and yet another witness said he heard 8–10.[58]
On September 9, a resident of the apartment complex where Reinoehl had been staying who witnessed the shooting issued a statement through his attorney, saying that Reinoehl was walking towards his car, holding only a cellphone and eating candy when officers arrived at the scene, and that officers opened fire without any verbal warning.[60][61][62] He said that after officers began firing, Reinoehl tried to duck for cover behind his car, which was blocked in by police vehicles.[62][63] The witness said Reinoehl never got into the car, nor did he ever see Reinoehl hold a weapon or reach for anything while he was being fired at.[60][62][63]

>>1444733 I agree with their protest but fucking christ I hate cyclists so much.
It sucks too because I agree with walkable and bikable cities but fucking cyclists are such obnoxious cunts.
>How should we protest? Doing a fun bike tour? >Hm... How about a NAKED bike tour where we show off our grotesque flappy giblets >NOW you're talking Maybe it's just because I'm a prude American, but this shit feels like it does more image harm then good lol

>>1444905 >Maybe it's just because I'm a prude American, but this shit feels like it does more image harm then good lol I'm from Portland. I've lived here all my life. Most people are either unaware or uninterested in naked biking or random protests. 99% of the city thinks naked biking is cringe and spends most of their time working and living their lives. People who aren't from here or listen to a lot of conservative media tend to think Portland is this monolith of thought and opinions when in fact there's a ton of money here and a giant chunk of the city that stays completely out of politics.

>>1444908 I didn't even think of it as a Portland thing, more of a cyclist thing. No matter where you are in the country, cyclists are just, for whatever reason, obnoxious and cunty.
Part of me wonders if stuff like this is astroturfed because it's clearly obnoxious and nobody except for the people inside the protest like the idea of hundreds of sweaty, chafed up nudists cycling down main street.

No, whats happening is targeted conservative delusion. 95% of the city are just normal people who work and live their lives. Whenever the other 5% of the city (primarily really young kids and older hippies) do anything cringe its the only thing the news covers. People get the impression that issues are much, much larger than they are because of how dishonestly and sensationally the news media covers us. Even our local news channels are corporate owned propaganda machines. At this point there's nothing anybody could do or say to convince conservatives that every major city isn't sodom and gamorrah so I don't even see the point in trying to improve the image of Portland. They wouldn't care and there's no proof you could show them that would change their minds so long as they rely on daddy Trump to tell them what reality is.

>>1444915 Yeah, that's fair. Sometimes I honestly lose track of how small this stuff is in the grand scheme of things, and how out of proportion it is blown. But also I just fucking hate cyclists, so I needed to vent that lol

>>1444916 >But also I just fucking hate cyclists, so I needed to vent that lol NTA, but it sounds like you don't quite get it. Are you sure you're not judging all of them on the actions of some tiny minority? That 95% normal people, 5% weirdos that get all the attention applies to them too.

>>1444916 Oh absolutely. Everybody hates the fucking cyclists here. Also, Portlanders are extremely performative. We're in a deep, deep blue area so there's nothing more they love than a pointless virtue signal that accomplishes nothing. I say this as a life long Oregonian.

>>1444917 Maybe, but I think it has to do with American infrastructure too. It's not made for cyclists, so the people that *insist* on cycling often have more narcissistic personality types.
Product of their environment kinda thing, idk. I've almost been run over by more cyclists than cars, so I'm a little biased, but that also probably has to do with dogshit infrastructure forcing pedestrians and cyclists onto the same spaces

>>1444780 Murdering a single person is not "terrorism". Terrorism is when someone bombs hundreds of people or hijacks a plane and runs it into a skyscraper. Or else all crime is terrorism now.
