Video shows a struggle for a flag and then a black-clad person hit this dude in the head before he drops. I was watching the blood pour out of his head and into the street.

Two large antifa groups down here, I’m with one that’s marching in the road, and tracking the Patriot group southbound through downtown, chanting “Nazis out of portland.”
