Going to do my best to live-tweet the #PortlandProtest tonight

Bubble machine has made an appearance

Been here 5 minutes. Already choking on tear gas

Handful of people throwing fire works at the feds. Not cool. Definitely not helping things.

Portland dads out in full effect. Using leaf blowers to (very effectively) blow tear gas back at the feds lol

Feds shooting gas at the building next door. Canisters are ricocheting into the crowd

Like to clarify that there’s easily over 1500 people here. 99.99% peaceful. Fireworks still not cool though https://twitter.com/j_overstreet14/status/1287272036486664192?s=21 https://twitter.com/j_overstreet14/status/1287272036486664192

My eyes hurt

Videos won’t tweet out for some reason. I’ll add them the the end of this thread

Lots of “Feds go home” and “F*ck Ted Wheeler” chants going on.

Seems like a lot of problems could be solved if the Feds just, ya know...went home.

Not sure what that’s for but it seems very ominous

S/O to whoever brought the projector.

BLM on the side of the federal justice center

There’s a person who appears to be living in their car parked on the side of the street in the middle of the crowd. He’s got a small dog inside and I feel very bad for it...
