The Police Bureau found the strike to the head was “not intentional” and therefore not considered lethal force and the Independent Police Review office viewed the strike as a “push,” Rosenbaum noted in his report.

[Thread] I won't be silent anymore about the dangerous self-proclaimed leaders known as Black Unity PDX. Bare with me as I lay out a series of events that have occurred at protests. Many attacks on activists, residents & houseless folks were all related to the same group....

2) Early in #GeorgeFloyd protests the policing of protesters was intense, where members of the "Swoop Group" known as the Portland Protest Bureau, now @blackunitypdx would get physical with protesters for touching the fence, once threatening to shoot and calling one a fa**ot.

2a) Later same peace police was seen throwing a glass bottle at JC and asking people in blac bloc for their contact info. Later said he don't fuck with people in black, because to him they are cops. Later he stuck up for accused snitch, Mason Lake when exposed.

Portland Police started press conference about how they will handle the #ProudBoys rally/counter demonstrations this Saturday with a video of the Molotov cocktail thrown last night. They showed the video before the Chief even started talking. It seemed random. This is #Copaganda

Here is Chief Lovell falsely claiming that an officer was injured and then deceptively making it sound like the officer had to be put out by fire medic. The video from multiple angles shows this to be false.

Portland Police Chief Davis tells the public that he doesn't believe tear gas was used last night, video shows it was definitely used and Portland Police were wearing gas masks because they knew it was used.
