AG Barr: Antifa Member’s Killing Shows America Won’t Be Ruled by Violent Mobs

Attorney General William Barr said Friday that the killing of alleged murderer and self-described member of Antifa Michael Reinoehl showed that the U.S. will be “governed by law, not violent mobs.”

In a statement released Friday, Barr praised police for their efforts in finding Reinoehl, and said his death made the United States “safer.”

“The tracking down of Reinoehl — a dangerous fugitive, admitted Antifa member, and suspected murderer — is a significant accomplishment in the ongoing effort to restore law and order to Portland and other cities,” Barr said. “The streets of our cities are safer with this violent agitator removed, and the actions that led to his location are an unmistakable demonstration that the United States will be governed by law, not violent mobs.”

Reinoehl was accused of killing Aaron “Jay” Danielson, a member of Patriot Prayer, in Portland, Oregon last Saturday. Patriot Prayer is a far-right group founded in 2016, and describes itself as being formed to defend the interests of American Christians.
