Incendiary devices found at the scene of ballot drop box fires in Portland, Oregon, and nearby Vancouver, Washington, this week were marked with the message “Free Gaza,” according to a law enforcement official.
A third device placed at a different drop box in Vancouver earlier this month also carried the words “Free Palestine” in addition to “Free Gaza,” said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation.
Investigators are trying to identify the person responsible and the motive for the suspected arson attacks, which destroyed hundreds of ballots at one location in Vancouver on Monday when the drop box’s fire suppression system didn’t work as intended. Authorities are trying to figure out whether the person who left the devices actually had pro-Palestinian views or used the message to try to create confusion, according to the official.
Irrelevant
I said this the last time this was posted:
If I was going to commit a crime like set fire to a bunch of ballots in a ballot box, I’d probably want to do something to take the police off my scent.
Yeah hexbear users dont actually have the balls to do this kinda shit, so either completely made up by the cop or its a false flag.
Literal smokescreen
Especially since this is an unverified comment from a cop who wouldn’t give their name…

It’s hard to believe that it burnt ballots but writing survived.
Waaaaaay easier to believe a cop doesn’t want trump supporters to be blamed.
If cops don’t like that no one takes their word anymore, they should stop constantly lying

To the point that I don’t accept their version of things unless there is either hard evidence or 3rd party (non-cop) confirmation.
