Portland, OR: now we know why Portland PD asked media to stay away in – there had been an order from the mayor's office not to use teargas, and the police said "LOL f*ck the mayor" and used it anyway Lawlessness [h/t @BonnieSilkman]pic.twitter.com/f46cezGObW

Not assigning a number to this because it was pre-protests (27 April 2020) and I'm keeping this particular thread for protest-related violence But it's a vivid reminder of the daily police brutality that ppl didn't realize is normalpic.twitter.com/pqkselKqGc

Update on above out of Portland OR: I'm told Portland's mayor only "supported" a 30-day ban on teargas (as done in Seattle WA), but didn't actually issue an order doing so

Seattle, WA:

Guy runs from cops and dives into a random SUV. So police club him (0:33), but then punch him in the face for sport after he's cuffed (1:44)

And arrest the random driver

Here we see Mayor Wheeler promising that the Police LRAD (sound cannon) will not be used. He doesn't promise that tear gas won't be used, but he expresses his desire to ban it for 30 days starting tomorrow. pic.twitter.com/yO7Lv0pJRg

In the midst of the chaos in downtown #LNK early Sunday morning, I found this on the ground outside the City-County Building on 10 Street. By this point, photographer @justin_wan and I, who were documenting the protest-turned-riot, had been tear gassed at least twice. pic.twitter.com/UWL3DVpNQ4
