A bold group of cyclists in Portland, Oregon decided to take a distinctive approach to protest against ICE—by baring more than just their anger.
On a rainy Sunday, a nude bicycle group made their way to the city’s immigrant detention center, accompanied by loud music from a speaker and chants of “F— ICE,” as they gestured defiantly at federal agents. This unusual demonstration was captured in a video shared by The Post Millennial’s Katie Daviscourt.
The protesting cyclists had slogans inscribed on their exposed skin, such as “No Kings” and “No human being is illegal.” Watching from a rooftop, some federal agents observed the scene, with two taking out their phones to likely document the unusual event.
Other agents who were forming a barricade on the street retreated several yards from their positions to make way for the nudist riders.
This protest stood in stark contrast to Portland’s usual anti-ICE activities, which sometimes turn violent and have persisted over many months. Absent were the typical black-clad Antifa protesters who mask their identities to avoid detection.
Reactions online ranged from anger to mockery.
Conservative commentator Robby Starbuck criticized the demonstration, saying, “If you’re parading naked in public where kids can see you, you strike me as a mentally ill pedophile who should be jailed. No sensible state permits this. Enjoy your nudity at home without involving children, but keep it out of public spaces. No rational person disagrees with me.”

“I have a feeling a bunch of illegals saw this and just threw up their hands and self-deported rather than be subjected to whatever this is,” Turning Point USA president Andrew Kolvet said.
“The Antifa ‘cavalry’ just arrived. Good gawd [sic],” said podcaster Kyle Becker.
But the naked Sunday afternoon riders provided only a brief distraction from months of destruction that have gripped the city while far-left agitators clash with federal officers almost nightly.
Back in June, a mob launched fireworks, smoke grenades and threw rocks at federal law enforcement, as they broke glass and forcibly entered the facility.

In September, rioters rolled a guillotine into the street in front of the federal law enforcement facility. Four federal officers were injured during the assault.
A Portland Police Bureau sergeant appeared to blame those documenting the violence for the violent clashes.
“Despite repeated advice from officers to stay away from the ICE crowd, they constantly return and antagonize the protesters until they are assaulted or pepper sprayed,” an email from Sgt. Andrew Braun exposed as part of the city’s lawsuit against President Donald Trump said.

Braun added that, “these 3 counter-protesters continue to be a chronic source of police and medical calls at ICE.”
