Imagine looking for a bunch of bloc baes in a dark park 🖤

#PortlandProtests #PortlandProtest #pdx

Press Bloc is out of control right now 🤣 MOOOve @PhrenologyPhun @Conundrum9999 @grassgoth @Cascadianphotog

“There’s anywhere between 150 and 10,000” people here

“Just a bunch of goth kids on a walk”

- press bloc.

One of my favorite memories from this destination. Also the home of some or my scariest and worst protest memories. #PortlandProtests #PortlandProtest #pdx

Baes in Bloc going on a walk
“No justice! No peace! *fuck 12* take it to the streets and fuck the police!”

New dj lrad waited .03 seconds for that one lol.

Uhhhhh....

Unlawful assembly literally TWO MINUTES IN

2 dj lrads threatening from both sides. “Leave to the East now” but no one in the crowd can hear the announcement

Camera bloc on a fash cam

Or cop cam. Or both.

Crowd is vibing to the drums and chanting

Crowd chanting “bullshit!” And “liar!” Because dj lrad claimed that projectiles are being thrown and that is a lie afaik

Roof cops

Protester- “the portland police bureau is a terrorist organization!”

They just snatched a protester. Second one tonight #PortlandProtests #PortlandProtest #pdx #acabspring #acab

The first arrest was a reporter from daily mail btw

Things are definitely tensing up

Mac Dre thizz dance currently. Portland y’all I love it here.

That wasn’t Loud at all 😰

That was weird and brutal. They bull rushed and played the waiting game in a standoff... protesters marched away from cops..

Crowd scattered in neighborhood again

Near NE ankeny and CZ a dark undercover truck driving through residential areas shining flashlight looking for protesters stay alert #DefendPdx #PortlandProtests

Well this is scary...

So we were in the park and heard two big explosions... the ground shook and our ears hurt. Firework? Pipe bomb? They’re saying a fash set off pipe bombs and discovered this
