At the Justice Center, Saturday night, 6/20. “Why Are You At Rev Hall?” projected on the side of the building. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Curious that the police don’t have their big lights on tonight. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland Image
“The Revolution will not be at Rev Hall!” says one of protesters at Justice Center through a megaphone. They are Black for the record. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Someone who’s been trying to lead the group the past few nights is claiming we’re going to “Protest the right way tonight, we’re not gonna get teargassed.”

Also said “There are proud boys around.”

I’ve heard that every night and there’s been little to no confirmed incidents.
At the end of the #FENCEWARS video the camera panned down, and a few protesters proclaimed “Ted Wheelers House!” #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland Image
Maybe a little less than 500 people here right now. No police outside the Justice Center yet. People chanting “Black Trans Lives Matter!” #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter  #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Someone light off some fireworks on the north side of the building, the sound spooked a lot of people here. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter  #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland

The crowd has been slowly thinning, but there are car barricades on each side of the car. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Police came out and started firing munitions into the crowd. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Some protesters try to put the fence back up, as police continue to fire into the crowd. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Police- “Please stop with the lasers, this is a peaceful protest.”

Some protester’s- “Then why do you have your f***ing guns out?”

#Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
While shooting at protesters, the police demanded the fence to be put back up.
Some protesters obeyed the police’s demand. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
There has been an officer on a megaphone making demands to the crowd. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland Image
Portland Police Bureau on a vehicle loudspeaker saying “We have no intent to engage the crowd, please stay peaceful.” #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
The police (maybe sheriffs actually?) are asking the crowd to move to the park saying “The fence isn’t safe for anybody right now.”
The crowd responds “Quit your job”
#Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
This cop is laughing and recording the protesters on his own phone. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
It is usually impossible to hear the sheriff/officer on the megaphone. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
There is a Black women just roasting the Portland Police/Sheriffs right now on a megaphone that is much louder than the cops magaphone. I would pay to listen to this. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Still a few hundred people here, one section of the fence is pretty funky. Police warning “There are children in the crowd, please stay peaceful.” #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter    #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Police use bright flashlights to make it harder to see/record them. Umbrellas can be a great counter tool. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter    #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
A police car with an LRAD about a block away from the Justice Center. It’s trying to give warnings/threats to the crowd. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter    #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
A few bottles have been thrown from the crowd, the umbrellas are out in full force anticipating Police munitions. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter    #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Riot police have showed up and are sending flash bangs into the crowd. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter    #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
More flash things and Police pushing the crowd back out of the park. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter    #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Police smashing people with batons, shooting tons of foam tipped bullets, and firing flash bangs into crowds of people. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter     #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Sending more flash bangs into crowds of civilians. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter     #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Police trying to hold the line at Main and 4th. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter     #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
Some of the riot police pulled back. Still some police and sheriffs guarding the park. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter     #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
“I don’t see no riot here, take off your riot here” #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter     #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland #policeriot
Right before this clip the police threw at least 10 flash bangs into the crowd and started charging. Two flash bangs blew up right under my body, I can feel the burns. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter     #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence
After charging at, beating, and flash banging the sh*t out the people, the riot police are pulling back for the second time. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter     #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland
This one firework initiated the police’s brutal charge and grenade deployment at the protesters. #Portlandprotest #blacklivesmatter     #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #justicecenter #sacredfence #portland

My dissection of Lady Ballers is finally out!

In this thread I’ll share some not so fun facts about the movie and screen caps from my pirated copy.
A picture of a basketball in a blonde wig with pink bow and text above in a cursive font that reads ladyballers with the two Ls being a cherry stem
The movie is directed, written, produced, and starring the Daily Wire's CEO Jeremy Boreing as a former high school basketball coach, pictured below with a horrible Tony Stark goatee. picture of jeremy in a locker room with slicked back dark hair and a trimmed goatee.
Matt Walsh plays a woke hippie liberal who has cucked Jeremy Boreing.

Walsh isn't a great actor, black hole of charisma. He can only do deadpan delivery so watching him play a sincere hippie leftist is just uncanny... Jeremy plays the most divorced man, which he pulls off ok.

yard signs that read 'in this house we believe crickets are delicious, silence is violence, speech is also violence, no one is illegal but Europeans coming to America was bad, guns dont kill people white people kill people... also guns kill people, trans rights are human rights, feelings dont care about your facts, pride month is every month, social credit scores matter, in exclusive inclusion, the earth is literally going to burst into flames any day'

Massive police presence in the area, crowd is sticking to the sidewalk for now. Flyers that reads demanded ...
People took the streets after marching on the sidewalk. In response the police set up a riot line a few blocks ahead, next to a building with Stop Cop City messages projected on the side. After briefly facing down the police riot line the march moved back onto the sidewalk.
Hundreds of Stop Cop City protesters have arrived at the Atlanta Police Foundation headquarters. A few dozen officers stand in front, some holding AR style rifles. The situation is tense. The people are simply staring down the cops and chanting on the sidewalk. Dozen armored officers stan...Picture of a downtown tower...

At this protest in downtown Atlanta. Around 300 people are currently gathered here holding signs, sharing stories of Tortuguita. I’m mostly recording audio, but will provide some written updates here. Flyer that reads On January...
After a small scuffle with PSL there is now a large march heading north in downtown. Banners at the front that read “They Can’t Kill Us All” and “Trees Give Life, Police Take It.” Lots of “Stop Cop City” chants & “Not One More.” Current chant “If they build it, we will burn it.”
Protesters hit the Atlanta Police Foundation headquarters and a few banks in the area with fireworks and broken windows. Two cop cars had their windows smashed, and then tons of Atlanta police officers arrived from multiple directions. At least a dozen arrests so far.
