I ask the demonstrator to elaborate on his claim that his side never threatens anyone. He walks it back to "I never have" and diverts to a discussion of Danielson's murder when asked if his group has made threats He then attempts to define Antifa for the other journalistpic.twitter.com/ZCw4CRap7P

The other journalist asks him to talk more about his claim that Danielson's murder was planned. The demonstrator claims to have seen videos of the planning, including Reinoehl claiming he doesn't get paid until he kills someonepic.twitter.com/XB1Oq1beAf

The other journalist asks what he hopes to accomplish here. He says they're here for 2A rights and that's it, though he expects Antifa will show up since they "doxxed their event" Y'all I found out about this from a Chandler Pappas post reposted by

Here's where it gets super fun I ask him how he can tell who's fake press and who isn't He does NOT have a coherent answer and it's real fun. Eventually he admits there's no standard beyond his personal feeling on the matterpic.twitter.com/lfvYYvTycu

We continue our conversation about what constitutes fake press while Pappas from across the street tells him to stop taking to "Antifa press" The other journalist attempts a "both sides" which the demonstrator uses to pivot to ground he's more comfortable with: how bad Antifa ispic.twitter.com/SIEezRiWKe

The demonstrator begins to describe how many buildings have been burned I ask him what buildings have been burned After quite a while, I manage to get him to admit no buildings in Portland have been burned He decides he's had about enough of this and wanders back to his rallypic.twitter.com/MA8AImtDtH
