This thing where they force everyone into the sidewalk is another great way to stop press from doing their fucking jobs. It's nice to see them get creative I guess. Pair brutality with wily tactics: who needs arrests?

I've found the group. Serious kettling concerns expressed. Portland hasn't seen a kettle yet in all this time. Will this be the night? I kinda doubt it. Still, good to be aware

As we ran through residential streets to get here, someone yelled from inside their house: "Hey PPB! Last time I checked, this was a democracy!!" " No it isn't!" a protester yells back. "Not to them! Not anymore."

The group is pretty scattered but seems to be making its way back down the street
@IwriteOK and@hungrybowtie tell me the police pushed a bit into the residential area, then left I can't believe it's only 11:001 reply 5 retweets 58 likesShow this thread -
The group has reconvened and paused. The Coup blasting. Protesters sitting, taking off masks. I do the same. The air is incredible on my skin A truck speeds through too fast, but no one is hurt

Protesters on the move, organizing to let cars through. Chanting George Floyd's name

The police round the corner. LRAD reminds us that "this event is still a riot" and tells us to disperse. Riot line incoming, see you on the other side

The riot line drives us back. Same old shit, less brutality. The crowd did well at keeping their distance and the bullrush sprint was far more tired than last time Currently, the line has blocked the intersection of Stark and 113th. They've cut the group in two, I think
