I'll be in downtown #EugeneOregon soon with @CFrancisOLeary for the @DailyEmerald reporting on this protest starting at 7 p.m. in solidarity with those in #KenoshaWI after the police shooting for #JacobBlake.
Just got here. Don't see any more than a handful of people yet.
The crowd has grown to approximately 30-40
Some speakers are going up and speaking into a mic that seems to be connected to a camera. Very few people here can actually hear what's being said.
One attendee is angry that voices aren't being heard. Another got angry at him and threw a bottle. The bottle was thrown back.
A new speaker just walked up and is loudly speaking about his disgust at the shooting in #KenoshaWI.

Another asks the crowd if they're ready to start marching or not.
A couple of counter-protesters (referred to as rednecks just now by someone in the crowd) have appeared across the street.
"Taking to the street"
We are marching in the street.
Smaller crowd, but keeping the volume up with chants "stay together, stay tight — we do this every night"
Marching past the jail right now. I can hear the thumping of windows from inside.
One of the planters just got some fresh chalk
The crowd is changing "defend, disarm, dismantle the police."
Another c-pro, this time in a truck, is speaking with a member of the bike safety crew.
Motorcyclist just revved and sped off. Marching has continued.
He's back.
White sedan just drove right in front of the crowd narrowly missing people
Red truck is following the group. I can hear someone on the safety team loudly talking to them behind me
@RNGDave has just joined the media crew here
@menshawnie and I have just caught back up with the march
The crowd has grown to about 60
@RNGDave says he got a photo of a smashed window at Wells Fargo
A major altercation here. I hear a Taser being deployed.
I say major because its the biggest thus far. Sorry.
Theres like three different arguments going on in front of me.
Flag was just broken.
She threw a water bottle that landed inches from me
The group is marching again
Bike crew is shining lasers
Back at the jail and lots of spray paint is out.
March is continuing again
A member of the bike safety crew is saying that because two cars have come close to hitting marchers that they're going to go home.
Consider this thread closed.
