A car just drove thru a crowd of protesters, dragging one on his hood, during a peaceful demonstration in SE #Portland.
The group of approx. 25 temporarily occupied an intersection in an act of civil disobedience in a demand for the abolition of police.

There seems to be some confusion re: the circumstances here.
No one attacked this car.
The majority of vehicles (several hundred over the course of approx. 30 minutes) chose to drive around the block rather than confront protesters.

Only this vehicle and several others instead turned and drove into the group.
The man who ended up on the hood of the car was standing there when the car drove into him.
To anyone hung up on the term “peaceful”, I maintain that this was a nonviolent demonstration.

As stated in a previous tweet last night, there were around 200+ protesters at ICE last night. About a minute before the first rush from the feds, my gas mask broke. I went the entire night with no mask, inhaling everything that was used to disperse the crowd 2/

There were numerous gassings which included the use of CS, OC, and HC gas. My eyes immediately burned and my face was on fire. Multiple times I had to stop filming to run away from the gas which filled a city block. The first time gas was used, I started choking and threw up 3/

This is some of the altercation that followed.
I know I’m fortunate it took until 33 to have a gun pointed at me but damn. That was rough.
This man needs to be held accountable.
Period.

Portland Police on the LRAD making announcements already. Saying the street is open to traffic, and not to vandalize buildings. Protesters have been letting cars pass through. #PortlandProtests #Portland #BlackLivesMatter #PortlandPolice
[Thread] There has been alot of assumptions and misinformation about racial demographics of #PortlandProtests, as well as right wing propaganda claiming "violence" is being allowed by the DA. First I'll address race...
2/In this very white city, only 6% percent of Portland is Black, but 10% of arrestees are black. Portland Police have also been labeling POC as white. This means that even at protests against racist policing, black people are disproportionately impacted.
3/ This also shows there aren't a lack of black folks protesting nightly. 75% of charges are for things that have nothing to do with property damage or violence. This means cops are mainly arresting people for protesting (calling it interfering, disorderly or failure to obey).
The Feds have only moved the fencing in on the South side of federal courthouse. #PortlandProtests
Speaker started on Justice Center steps, about 40 people so far, more trickling in. Word a white SUV (maybe suburu) drove by and yelled "yall should get shot." #PortlandProtests

John Jackson: “To the business owners & the people, hang in there. We are all in this together. This type of violence makes no sense. It only hurts the small guys like myself. We are just here providing a service to the community.” #koin6news #PDX #PNW #Oregon #Portland
