And a couple more stickers have magically appeared Police cars in the backgroundpic.twitter.com/iSqsGSX3P9
A protester informs the PPB that they have been declared a fascist gathering for the 86th day in a row Someone else calls the cops pussies "Hey! Pussies are awesome" someone shouts back Protesters currently chanting "pigs in a pig pen! Oink oink oink!"
I'm not gonna film it but maybe 10 people in bloc are moshing to "Beat It" by Michael Jackson
We have another LRAD warning about throwing projectiles I do see about 4 water bottles on the ground about 50 feet from the cop cars so this might be technically correct DJ LRAD advises everyone to leave for their own safetypic.twitter.com/AELs7Ors56
We do now have a protester firing paintball rounds onto the property
And we have an unlawful assembly declaration. Paintballs explicitly mentioned
@dontatmefascist had pointed out that precedent from earlier today indicates that paintballs are NOT a reason to declare an unlawful assembly so it's super weird that it's suddenly a problem now
DJ LRAD tells everyone to leave to the West and honestly I'm wondering if they have the numbers or the energy to make that happen Guess we'll find out
LRAD from the other end of the MSCO provides the same announcement Are they preparing to charge from over there or trying to make it seem like there's more of them then there are?
Kafka himself would be baffled and horrified by this push They push one direction than another. Tell us to get back, then shove us for not moving fast enough
#31 loses his fucking mind part 2: (Everyone other clp has retreated down the street. Two cops are trying to have his back but he's going rogue)pic.twitter.com/PRi1C0TZ7F
This is a long video for Twitter but it's a very short time to be told to move ahead rapidly and them be told to get the fuck backpic.twitter.com/sPys50OoHA
Ordered to move in the opposite direction everyone had been ordered to move mere moments before. The resulting confusion led to a wall of bodies and a lot of fun opportunities to brutalize protesters in the darkpic.twitter.com/LR5rFTw2Cb
Same logjam incident: NLG knocked down My footage is the worst because close quarters and also shovingpic.twitter.com/GgmCc8EUvS
Literally no idea what they want from me here, there's a solid mass of people to my back in this video. Eventually they move me aside by my backpack I rarely get shoved, even when everyone around me is getting fucked up. Is it the vest? My height? No complaintspic.twitter.com/WJT7zSINVa
I have more footage but back in the present, the protest has returned to the MSCO and DJ LRAD is reminding everyone this is still a riot Really doesn't feel like a riot Tear gas threats Respirator time
A couple cops did try to abide by the TRO. There's another instance where they escorted us through the line It's just very difficult to know what you're gonna get at any given momentpic.twitter.com/ZpFyk1IDky
Happening now-ish: cops make an arrest, Brent shoots someone for touching a smoke cannisterpic.twitter.com/5VkL2OWHqL
Still happening now-ish: they pile on their vans and leave. This could mean anything. Maybe they'll come back immediately. Maybe they're gone A lot of people have gotten fucked up tonight. Lotta mace. Lots of people knocked downpic.twitter.com/1EISX1m01R
Protest just chilling at an intersection We have a flaming mattress so traditionally speaking shit is about to get real again. Cops hate mattressespic.twitter.com/bNp2WAEqdm
A friendly protester gives me my very own Riot Pokemon, plus a police glowstick "You can just have it of you want. Why do you always want to just take pictures? Take it!" I actually don't have a tear gas canister yet somehow so this is very excitingpic.twitter.com/8kETc2pT8b
This night isn't done but I think I am. It's been a long day and I still have to go through my footage from this morning Solidarity to everyone still out here! (Stay tuned for one more video of 31 having a bad day: gotta blur a face at home before I post it)
By the way, absolutely no pressure, but!! If you found my coverage today helpful and wanted to buy me a beer, you could do that at: Cash app/Venmo: misanthrophile PayPal: askmisanthrophile@gmail.com (THANK YOU to all the wonderful people who have already bought me a beer today)
Couple more videos before I pass the fuck out: Here's a cop moving down the road and shooting impact munitions like he's LARPing Call of Dutypic.twitter.com/njQp32DhEd
And, as promised, #31 losing his fucking mind Part 3 In this video, he's trying to get the protesters in the red shirt to move through tear gas and a line of riot cops Protester isn't having it #31, suddenly reasonable, tries to help Sound on for this onepic.twitter.com/luT6B1ynLp
