If you need help; reach out, and if you're doing well; reach out to people who may not be. To my fellow veterans out there, we need to do a better job at taking care of eachother. I lost a good friend, and the world lost an incredible human. The world is poorer and darker for it.

#PortlandMoms are out in even stronger numbers tonight at the justice center. A solid wall of moms stepping up to protect the youth. A powerful statement to the heavy handed federal response of late. #PortlandProtest #PDXprotests #BlackLivesMatter

Good evening Portlanders! I originally made this account more anonymous for the sake of keeping my personal opinions and feelings from affecting the objectivity of my reporting. After much thought, I have decided to use my name instead.

Important to note that protests here at the justice center have recently seen a resurgence in attendance and a growth in diversity of demographics. Portlanders from all walks of life are here. #PortlandProtest #PDXprotests #FreePortland #BlackLivesMatter

David Edgerton is a resident of the neighborhood, he was on his property chanting slogans in support of the protesters walking by. His neighbors (3 individuals) from across the street assaulted him. He describes the incident. #PortlandProtest #PDXprotests #Blacklivesmatter

The 'Wall of Vets PDX' (@VetsWall) have arrived, standing at the position of parade rest in front of the federal courthouse. They are a veteran activist group here to support #BLM. #PortlandProtest #PDXprotests #Blacklivesmatter

Activists threw smoke grenades and fireworks to cover their advance. The protest crowd has retaken Lownsdale Park Square. #PortlandProtest #PDXprotests #BlackLivesMatter

The effects of tear gas can be felt throughout the park and even a block away. Many protesters are having extreme adverse reactions to the gas. Some became non-ambulatory and needed help leaving. Medics are now attending to them. #PortlandProtests #PDXprotest #BlackLivesMatter

We were approached by an armed group telling us to leave, they are wary of outsiders based on rumors of arsonists starting fires in the area. #OregonFires2020 #OregonFires #oregonwildfires

A much larger shield line formed up facing the federal police skirmish line. It proved quite effective against resisting munitions used. Federal police was unable to push the crowd off Lownsdale Square Park today. #PortlandProtest #Portland #BlackLivesMatter
