Balloons on the district courthouse fence. The crowd chants the names. The drumline is fully engaged. It's a lot like it's been for the past two weeks but more relaxed. No sign of feds. A hope they're really gonepic.twitter.com/3i17cCDUZX

A couple protesters bang on the fence with trash can lids. Gentle, harmless, makes a lot of noise Good way to test the waters

There's a speaker but unfortunately their megaphone isn't very good and my hearing, as established earlier, has not been improved over the last two months The street in front of the District Courthouse remains packed

I've moved closer and can now hear this Black activist talking about how officers have families too, how not all of them are bad Another Black activist with a megaphone pushes back against this. A battle of words. A chant of "black lives matter"

The crowd in Portland is, as always, largely white. There's that familiar freeze as the audience is unsure what to do A chant of Black Lives Matter shifts into a chant of "let her talk" Cameras battle to capture these activists arguing

Which one is "her"? Cops-have-families or the one who disagrees?

I gather it was cops have families? Unclear though

Just saw a video. It cleared nothing up. Lol. Easy to unify behind the chant, I suppose, even if it communicates next to nothing.
