Unlawful assembly declared. Cop cars approaching from multiple directions We have been told to disperse to the North You can see in this video that the PPA building is finepic.twitter.com/Hl7yeFG4U3
Cops make multiple arrests, it's unclear what for Their gas masks are very much onpic.twitter.com/tMz2y5ZA1U
I unintentionally back into a cop while filming. He politely touches my shoulders and informs me I backed into him. Very polite. Meanwhile they're conducting mass arrests. I don't fucking know, man There are SO MANY OF THEMpic.twitter.com/SM5D7CzcOG
Cops inspect the new graffiti Protesters chant: "How do you spell Nazi? PPB!"pic.twitter.com/ftPfm7FA4N
Cars honk approval while the PPB load arrestees into waiting vans. I'd estimate 10pic.twitter.com/JOO6qTVQ8K
I don't know why I'm suddenly sad, looking at them. Products of a bastard factory. Sure, they chose to enter, but the system made their existence inevitable I see trapped pawns. I see exhausted bodies in the service of the state Don't mind me. I get like this sometimespic.twitter.com/Y5k6ib8jBA
Anyway, they've left: circled around the PPA and vanished. Again, the streets are empty of everything but protesters and music and bubbles They're real good at the lightning warfare out here at the PPA. They'll probably charge again at some point
Here is the damage from that hammer I talked about earlier ~10 people arrested for thispic.twitter.com/kxQGSyz0Nn
And there it is: a second charge without warning. Appears to be an actual targeted arrest, though of course they fuck up anyone who gets in their waypic.twitter.com/6KYJnma40s
They make their arrest, get back on their vans, and leave. Again the streets are chillpic.twitter.com/c9nPZnR6hs
The police emerge immediately "To the individuals on the roof: safely climb down and meet with the officers below"pic.twitter.com/2ucNcXKXDO
#31 losing his shit per usual Sound on for the taunt and response, sorry it's dark af over herepic.twitter.com/aL8ttzNeSK
Again, terrible video, but the roof protester has been arrestedpic.twitter.com/SRt104yqjC
Cops leave. Very here for the protesters doing the "MOOOOOVE" police yell as they gopic.twitter.com/TEMmtDU05C
A fake retreat! The moment I go to tweet they charge and make more arrests In this clip, a cop expresses frustration at how heavy his gear is. Must be hard to have all that protective gear. Lots of people out here would give anything for that kind of armorpic.twitter.com/D602NfqvKM
A cop aims impact mubitions at the heads of protesters, decides not to firepic.twitter.com/6Ces2sVqZF
#31 on his #31 shit: wandering away from the group to menace protesters by himself. He does it twice in this clip. #12 has to come get him Oh #31: who hurt you?pic.twitter.com/YF6EyipyRL
This seems like a lot of arrests for a traffic cone on an awning But what do I know, I don't have a criminal justice degreepic.twitter.com/snkC7RKIpm
There was kind of a beautiful moment just now when a protester was screaming at police: "Fuck you! Fuck you! You're a bunch of f******--oh shit, I'm not supposed to say that. You're a bunch of bitch-asses!" Baby steps, points for effort
The police are still just standing there which is unfortunate because I feel like if they left I would go home and so would a lot of other people
@JFlorencePDX points out the cops don't have gas masks on anymore so I take mine off too
Another arrest, I didn't see from where or how it started. Protesters tell me they were just standing there and got grabbed
And they let them go! Protester goes down the line and flips off every cop before walking away God DAMN
The night probably isn't over but my ancient back is killing me and I'm gonna call it a night
@JFlorencePDX and @PDocumentarians still out and covering events
Solidarity to them and to everyone still out here!
Epilogue: there have been some rumors about riot cops waiting back at Arbor Lodge park and I can say with certainty that as of now this is not the case
