The next speaker, David with Oregonians for Trump, emphasizes the diversity of the crowd He calls on the dishonest media to report this accurately so I will: Yes, there are people of color in the crowd. Yes, it's mostly white

David says they could organize something violent that eclipses the America unrest so far, and that they'd be justified to do that He says they're choosing not to

These messages can be seductive to newcomers because the speakers truly believe what they're saying about the power of love and rejecting hate. You can feel the sincerity But when they attack leftists on the street, they believe they're right about that too

The far right sees no contradiction between words of peace and actions of violence, because they have left truth behind. What they do is right. What others do is wrong. It is truly that simple Someday, God willing, I will go to grad school and write books about this

David urges prayer: for Trump, the government in Washington, and even for the "dishonest media" (a phrase repeated several times throughout this speech)

Like many speakers who did not know Jay personally, Daniel urges people to view Jay as an example of how to be and how to act. As an image of a follower of Jesus This mythmaking goes somewhat beyond normal eulogizing

Gibson announces there will be a candlelight vigil for Jay at 8:00 tonight here in Vancouver

Joey Gibson just said he's not going to get political and I do not laugh sometimes my job is really hard He demands an apology from Ted Wheeler and Kate Brown for Jay's murder and subsequent slander "He has built a city of violence" and advanced lies of white supremacy
