No visible line of cops tonight for the first time in a long time. Trying something new? Or forming up down the street? Time will tell

The Awesome Moms, whomst I have been told are now called MU4BLM, have moved to the front Protesters mostly standing and chanting: "Black Lives Matter!" PPA building still not on fire

Brief chant: "what did you see? Didn't see shit!" PPA remains not on fire

A second dumpster fire burns: now one on each end of the protest I'd take a picture but come on, it's 2020, you know what a dumpster fire looks like

A keen-eyed protester has spotted a surveillance drone and is shining a truly impressive laser at it. His accuracy and skill is astounding. Surely this some kind of super-soldier

For those of you concerned about the state of the PPA: the PPA remains not in fire

Someone warns of an LRAD sighting. I'm not surprised There will be details about what's going on right now at a later time. All I can tell you for sure is that the PPA remains not on fire

LRAD declares an unlawful assembly without explanation

North Portland wifi continues to fuck with me. There will be video but clearly not now The police pushed us to Schofield and Denver, where protesters have erected a giant barricade. The police remain massed two blocks up

Barricade down, protest pushed to Brandon and Kilpatrick There are some activists who are very frustrated that the crowd is running from the armed riot cops I'm not sure what they want

Protest driven into Kenton Park. Something spicy in the air but my respirator is holding up "You're a bunch of cowards! Go home! You don't even live here! This is MY neighborhood! "

Someone is playing I Will Survive. God bless Protesters trying to get the crowd together and tight. The park makes this difficult. We're more used to streets

There's been some serious attrition. Maybe 150 people left

Police fire a large amount of what I think was smoke, then leave. My god there were a lot of them Crowd regrouping. Less attrition than I thought. They are water. They are flowing back

Restoring thread continuity. Uploading while tweeting (and purposefully destroying the thread) is literally the only way I can get it to you, sorryhttps://twitter.com/1misanthrophile/status/1292361658887622656?s=19 …

Maybe 1/4 of the protest starts to move out. The rest scream at them to come back. They don't seem to be listening Weekend problems, man. Larger numbers, less cohesion

Now an activist is yelling a protesters for staying in the park because "black folks never get a break" It's so easy to tell who hasn't been out here every night. Taking breaks are a way to ensure everyone is recovered, maintaining cohesion, and keeping the cops on their toes

Op and the person on the mic is talking about how they've been here since day 1 Man, there were about a thousand people out here on Day 1, just ask them I wasn't. I was out on Day 2. Day 1 was maybe 30 people. Day 2 was maybe 100

Sorry, this maybe isn't constructive but I'm real tired of this shit Anyway we're moving now probably
