This shows police arrive at the shooting victim and push the Black Lives Matter medic away, kick away her supplies, and then let the man bleed out. She was trying to help.
This is the medics account of what happened and how they are impacted.
Don’t let @tedwheeler push the blame of what happened upon others. Portland has sustained protests because of his inaction. Portland had a problem with police because he is the commissioner. Portland cops treated the medic like this because he has told them it’s okay.

Hey ya'll, I do not ask you for much but please consider giving to this cause. As you know, my wife was hospitalized due to complications after the protest munitions. We are still recovering. The heroes who protected us that night need your help. (thread) gofundme.com/f/protective-g…
A few days ago I attended the Portland Protests I did so with what I thought was full protective gear. I quickly ran into members of the Radical Justice Party who informed me that despite my gear being expensive, it would not fully protect me.
They lamented that their gear also was leaving them exposed but they were committed to doing everything they could do at the protests. I asked if I could stay with them during the protest and they said yes.

Thread time. This one is important but complex, bare with me. I swear this is good info if you are a protester, live in Portland, or just want to resist Trump.

As many of you know I work in politics. This is why I know why Portland Police is live streaming lately.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist and this isn't a conspiracy. It is how this works. So first, it is important to note that this filming is illegal under Oregon law. However, I'm not going to waste time pretending @PortlandPolice or Mayor @tedwheeler care. oregonlaws.org/ors/181A.250
One small purpose of these streams is to try and turn the public against the protesters. They think if protesters appear as fringe actors, the public will support a violent crackdown. However, they never film the violent crackdown. They turn it off then. reddit.com/r/Portland/com…

My next door neighbor is elderly. He just flagged us down because he is sicker than he has ever been. He has no toilet paper or food. He looked like death and was crying. He can’t go to the doctor because his fever isn’t high enough. Although it is high.
He said he didn’t want to knock on our door cuz we have kids. We just moved so he didn’t have our number. He waited till he could catch us outside so now we are going to the store for him.
Moral of the story is check on your neighbors. Exchange numbers. We need community right now. Lots of Americans have never talked to their neighbors. It’s time to get rid of our rugged individualism even while we practice social distancing.
