In front of the Justice Center yet again, on Wednesday July 8th. Two hundred people around the base of the Stag Statue. There is no planned event for the night. #blacklivesmatter  #pdx #portlandoregon #oregon #blm #acab #portland #justicecenter

Someone on a Portland Protest Bureau megaphone announced they are collecting signatures for an “anti teargas petition.” Signing the form includes putting the date, your name, and address. Some people have voiced security concerns relating to this.

It currently feels more like a slow block party here rather than a protest. #blacklivesmatter #pdx #portlandoregon #oregon #blm #acab #portland #justicecenter

Oooo we just had a big firework launched from the base of the former stag statue. I didn’t see any fireworks yesterday, but I’ve witnessed at least three tonight. #blacklivesmatter   #pdx #portlandoregon #oregon #blm #acab #portland #justicecenter #sacredstag

Something that looked and sounded like the flashbangs the fed’s used last night just went off in front of the Justice Center.

This white SUV has tried to swerve into the street towards people multiple times.

They parked in front of the stag statue base then drove off and fired multiple shots into the air from a revolver.

A lot of crowd has left, I’m with a group of fellow journalists by 3rd and Main where people have set up a car baracade.
