Lasers aimed at the one obvious camera over the doors A group of protesters gathers around the main entrance Chants of "black lives matter!" I wonder how many people have been forced through those white gates, and where they are now
Announcement from the Federal Protective Services They ask the protest not to set fire to the building, and warm of consequences should the warming be ignored
"BLACK LIVES MATTER! DROWN THEM OUT!!" The crowd screams "ABOLISH ICE" as they press closer to the building
The following hideous crimes have taken place so far: -Two or three graffitis -A couple paint balloons splattered on the sidewalk, a small splatter on a window This concludes the list of hideous crimes so far
Another warning from the feds, who now tell the protest not to "damage" the building. Does paint count? Anyway I've decided to put my gas mask on, even though it's such a wealthy area I question the necessity of this action
Chants of "Chinga la Migra" List of crimes committed so far has not changed or expanded Another fed warning. Something about a lawful order. Honestly cannot hear
While we wait to get fucked up, here's a really good shield:pic.twitter.com/UmyZ72ay0n
A few more graffitis have taken place Your periodic reminder that paint washes off, unlike the metaphorical blood on America's hands from this institution and yes that is objective journalism that is a statement of fact
The feds really need to get a louder microphone I simply cannot hear a word they're saying
When you have a hammer everything looks like the window of an ICE facility I think that's how the saying goes Apropos of nothing of coursepic.twitter.com/byGTW1sKz9
We have a civil disturbance declared by the Portland Police Bureau. A line of feds stands off with a much larger crowd on the street in front of the ICE facilitypic.twitter.com/Z8IgN0b7qi
Feds and PPB push us back to Gaines st. At least one arrest
Whoever is playing Yackety Sax right now I love you
Looks like just PPB now. I can tell because I recognize all these cops and also their LRAD is loudpic.twitter.com/eMdTCVO2Rs
Police retreat to the strains of Yackety Sax, and shoot some smoke at the press for fun as they go

Protest is back at the ICE facility. Very little attrition. No sign of the feds but obviously that could change any second
Chant of "what did you see? Didn't see shit!" I actually didn't see shit but I definitely heard some breaking glass Oop there goes some more
Huge bullrush back to the park. Lot of brutality. Teargas warning but I didn't need it I can small it through my mask. Too fucking fast for me to get any good footage, I hope others did
Look what I am about to say is probably unfair but if you're on the sidewalk because you can't go fast I get it just please get over to one side so press can sprint and grab footage of this shit they're doing and show the world what they're doing out here
Oh by the way, we've got a riot declaration Journalists have been ordered to "go inside" Yeah, that's a TRO violation
Police have retreated for now. Yackety Sax again as they go. I'll never get tired of that, seriously if that's you playing it you're my hero
Do you have any idea how hard it is to light a mattress on fire?! Damn near impossible. But through God all things are possible so, you know, jot that downpic.twitter.com/GWMKshq4J3
Protesters are doing skateboard trucks over the flaming mattress, to which someone had added copies of "luxury homes" I don't need to explain the metaphor, surelypic.twitter.com/Ib1Jbp2pbi
As I typed that last tweet, a tomato from one of the luxury condos above splattered at my feet "Everyone's a critic!"
Looks like we're gonna stay here, at Bond and Gaines. @PDXGabs and I chat about the implications of this. Theoretically, the feds can't come out this far
Well, someone's coming now so I guess we'll find out
Flashing lights in the distance but no one here yet
