    We have to talk about what happened at the East Precinct today. Not just because a handful of heroes selflessly put themselves in danger to protect their community, but because it is perfectly illustrative why SPD is as dangerous as it is unnecessary.pic.twitter.com/j9QBSwgcCJ

        This morning, Seattle Police erected a "permanent" barricade at 11th & Pine, to replace the one protesters had moved yesterday. If that barricade had worked as intended, it would have held the bulk of crowd in the middle of the intersection all day.https://twitter.com/spekulation/status/1269706575058399233?s=20 …

        Seattle Police are currently building a more permanent wall to fortify the East Precinct against nonviolent protesters. They view the community as separate from them, something to be defended against, something to be violently attacked at the slightest nonviolent provocation. pic.twitter.com/vmcluTW5m8

        Soon after, some professional stage-workers went to the site, saw how the barricades had been constructed, and realized it had been put together wrong. They tried to warn officers that the construction would likely crush protesters. They were ignored.https://twitter.com/spekulation/status/1269767002207346688?s=20 …

        If you are down at the East Precinct today, you need to know that those new walls they constructed are not put together correctly, they will fail, and when they do they will likely crush protesters. SPD has been warned about this risk and has decided to ignore it. pic.twitter.com/YCpG5wq1PH

        Midway through the day, the crowd of nonviolent protesters began to disassemble the new barricade... made possible because it hadn't been constructed properly. In doing so, they were able to move up about 20 feet, leaving fewer people in the intersection.https://twitter.com/spekulation/status/1269823644114358272?s=20 …

        Nonviolent protesters have crossed the police barricade, and established *their own* barricade. Fucking amazing. pic.twitter.com/0p6nBB4We3

        As this was happening SPD was constantly on the megaphone, warning them to go back, telling them they were risking violence, claiming these unarmed, nonviolent protesters were committing violence just by standing. Tensions were high, seemed moments away from flashbangs.

        All of a sudden, a car barrels down 11th Ave towards the intersection. People are chasing it, throwing things, hitting it, trying to get it to stop. https://twitter.com/SeanNyberg/status/1269841468903964673?s=20 …

        A protester at the intersection thinks quickly and moves part of the newly dismantled barricade in front of the car, stopping it from barreling into the intersection and hitting anyone.https://twitter.com/chaseburnsy/status/1269833325440462848?s=20 …

        A man drove through 11th and hit a barricade. He exited his car and flashed a gun. The police say they have the man in custody and have the gun. They asked for anybody who is hurt to come to the barricade. A man was on the ground on 11th and Pine. He’s up now. pic.twitter.com/47eZZOvG59

        Another protester, a man named Daniel, goes for the driver. In the scuffle, Daniel is shot in the arm. The driver jumps out of the car holding a handgun with an extended clip, points it at multiple people.https://twitter.com/AGarlandPhoto/status/1269835122011865088?s=20 …

        Story unclear at the moment but young man shot on 11th and Pine. Daniel, 26, wanted to tell his story. With the help of other medics I got a tourniquet on his arm. Street medics were on the spot with gauze and pressure. He walked off the scene. pic.twitter.com/g9Ism58YkF

        He quickly makes his way through the crowd towards the front of the protest, gun still in his hand. He runs past the new barricade protesters had constructed, without even slowing down, directly for police. The line of officers barely moves. He has his hand and gun in his pocket.

        JUST IN: Additional view of the man who drove into traffic and shot a man earlier tonight on Pine and 11th during the #seattleprotest #seattle he obviously not “white” and appears to have the gun in his pocket. Is taken without incident. Police seem unthreatened. pic.twitter.com/oWd3PnlkFR

        Thanks for sharing this. I don't know what this dude was thinking, and he fucked up pretty bad. But this does make it clear that he was gesturing back, not throwing a thumbs up.
