So far, you've got the cops,
The III%ers with a couple of 1%ers mixed in,
And the black militia, NFAC.
For those who have been following me since the 2016 #oregonstandoff, the III%ers are using Zello to communicate/coordinate.
On the right-wing side, the various factions have tapped a Kentucky militant as their leader, which is consistent with the rules of the militia universe. Her name is Tara Brandau.
On the left-wing side, the leader of the NFAC runs his militia as a religious group, and he's got something of a messiah complex.
Shooting in the park. Two NFAC people are being taken away in ambulances. It was apparently an accidental discharge. I'm not sure how two people get injured that way.
People are arguing in the park right now where the NFAC and their supporters have gathered.

Off camera, a woman says, "This is fucking embarrassing."

I like her.
Screen grab from a news helicopter. The NFAC are getting ready to march.
I try to watch aerial coverage to 1) get a more realistic feels of the numbers involved, and 2) keep an eye on the rooftops. I would hope police are making sure no one is up there.
If you're wondering why all of the attention is being paid to the NFAC, this is how many right-wing militants showed up.
