Deputies have contacted several groups of residents in Corbett who have set up checkpoints and are stopping cars. While we understand their intent is to keep the community safe, it is never legal to block a public roadway or force other citizens to stop.
This type of action increases the risk of injury to everyone at one of these roadblocks. We have had extra deputies patrolling Corbett all day and will through the rest of the weekend. Please report suspicious activity to us and do not take action yourselves.
Do they all have concealed carry permits?
Permits or not, this is still illegal and vigilantism. Also, in Oregon, it's illegal (via the Oregon Constitution) for cops to set up roadblock checkpoints, hence no drunk driver checkpoints.
I hope they moved along and went home. I also understanding them wanting to protect the area, but that is not the proper way to address the issue. Working with law enforcement and reporting suspicious activity is the way to proceed
Yep. The toothpaste is out of the tube.
I can’t imagine enabling right-wing nutjobs these last few weekends had ANYTHING to do with this vigilantism we’re seeing. At all!
What if we call it a protest? Or say we're doing it in the name of social justice?
You do realise that the cops beat the shit out of protestors but ask these guys to politely move along.
