I’m at Alberta Park on July 25th covering a protest planned for NE Portland. #blacklivesmatter #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong
People have officially arrived at the Portland Police Bureau North Precinct. #blacklivesmatter #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong
Still over 1,000 people marching south, I don’t know where they are headed. #blacklivesmatter   #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong
The march turns onto 3rd Ave, undoubtably headed to the courthouse. Roughly 1,000 people, but they are getting tired. #blacklivesmatter   #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong
There were already thousands of people at the courthouse even before the march from the NE showed up. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
I moved a whole block south to see the justice center. This is the other half of the crowd, yes half. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
The Feds retreated inside after being covered in pink paint. Also the part of the fence they shoot out of has been coated in caulking. #blacklivesmatter #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms
Pepper bullets being shot at people messing with the steel fence. Leafblowers quick to blow the pepper away. #blacklivesmatter    #PortlandProtesters #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
Even since the Feds went inside (due to being covered in paint) it’s just been a few thousand people standing around, occasionally shaking a steel fence or throwing a firework. #BlackLivesMatter #pdx #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms
About a minute later somebody lit a firework and it blew right at the spot on the roof where teargas was being shot from. #blacklivesmatter   #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
The Portland police Bureau continues to give it out announcements on the LRAD but I see federal troops shooting teargas. #blacklivesmatter   #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
Kinda unclear who is using teargas, the LRAD is saying it’s Portland Police, but I see a lot of camo. #blacklivesmatter   #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
Federal officers pushing three blocks away from federal property and using teargas. #blacklivesmatter   #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
More teargas shot into Portland streets, and I got shot with a rubber bullet, I’m standing in a crowd of just other press people. #blacklivesmatter   #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
Solid shield wall forms. Feds shoot at someone who goes to kick a teargas canister. #blacklivesmatter    #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
The shield wall moves forward as the Feds pull back and shoot more teargas. #blacklivesmatter    #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
Footage doesn’t look great cause my camera is still covered in mace at this point, but here the Portland Police actually shows up and pushes me onto the ground. #blacklivesmatter    #Protests #pdx #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms
Portland Police illegally ordering press, me specifically, onto the sidewalk. I informed him of the federal restraining order from dispersing press. #blacklivesmatter    #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms
Police push people that are complying with their orders and arrest folks that are pushed onto the ground. #blacklivesmatter    #Protests #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms #MomsAreHere
A few officers pull back, and myself and some other press move across the street to film them. Police illegally tell us to go back. I inform them of my rights. #blacklivesmatter   #pdx #portland #oregon #blm #acab #PortlandProtest #PDXprotest #PortlandStrong #WallOfVets #wallofmoms
