As I put my camera on I noticed it's become caked with teargas residue
I thought about wiping it but what's the point?
Anyway, gonna live-tweet tonight's action from this account, for old time's sake

I immediately run into @PDocumentarians who is trying to ask questions of a man parked at the side of the JC
He's told protesters he's here to protect the justice center but he isn't saying anything right now
Weird. Hopefully this is the last I'll have to tweet about this
Apparently he's decked out in body armor and has a bow and arrow in the back of the car. I guess he choke-slammed someone yesterday Yikes
Maybe 200 people here, all gathered in Lownsdale Square across from the district courthouse. I guess this is the bear the protesters have decided to poke
A truck with the most obnoxious camo paint job I've ever seen cruising around WAY too fast. Too many chud sightings
People hanging out on the sidewalk outside the District Courthouse. People hanging out in Lownsdale. An activist speaks in the intersection of 3rd and Main.
I'm seeing people drawing grafitti on the doors. Someone throws something. It's very frustrating. Picking battles is important: the risk/reward for this particular battle is off-the-charts bad
A new chant in front of the courthouse: "no cops! No masters! No fascists, fuck those bastards!" Farther away, the elk fires burn high tonight. Music and chill vibes Two different events within 100 feet of each otherpic.twitter.com/C5lIC4dWuJ
Other people out here right now:
@PDocumentarians
@45thabsurdist
@IwriteOK
And probably more, hit me up with the people I haven't run into yet
Somebody is playing the "all cops are bastards" chant on a trumpet, I livepic.twitter.com/1DnA3j9ozc
I have commented on this before and I will again, but last night someone got shot in the fucking head for nothing and tonight people are spray-painting, hanging out on the sidewalk, all kinds of forbidden activities And nothing Because their reactions have nothing to do with us
@TheRealCoryElia and @Human42LM also out!
Also just saw @LindseyPSmith7 , everyone out tonight!
Ran into the dude collecting munitions yesterday and got some close-ups of all the shit I breathed in last night:pic.twitter.com/1eeYZdnGNn
Boards going up around the district courthouse. I realize I should probably find earplugspic.twitter.com/0z5Mqyt837
Attention turning to the JC: our old friend Plywood has been removed: a door sits exposedpic.twitter.com/Bdijuk5tjv
