[Thread] Last Night's #IndigenousPeoplesDay2020 #DayOfRage & Police CopAganda. PPB reporting that there was an undercover Fed. While this isn't surprising, there is always a chance this is being used to make everyone suspicious of eachother. And if Feds were in the crowd... 
2/they were likely participating in riot. Police also claiming shots were fired into bar at protest. Sorry, gunshots don't go unnoticed. Portland police were totally absent for hours until after statues were toppled. The night before they arrested 26 for standing in a crosswalk..
3/Police claim to be busy with man with gun in SE. They have 900 full time cops and only a couple dozen are on the Rapid Response Team. The 911 call for man w/ gun was made at 645pm according to @pdxpolicelog, statue was downed around 9pm...
4/Chief Lovell also says most resources were tied up with riot when assistance was requested for man with gun. Which were they busy with? Lovell also says police didn't know destination of march.They had Feds in the crowd that they communicated with and didn't intervene for hours
5/ Almost seems like they wanted to let property get destroyed w/ cop on the inside. Feds have been known to entrap, and encourage crime rather than prevent. Look up the Christmas Tree Bombing. Horrible comparison, but you get the point.

6/ The fact that a gun was seen on a protester doesn't make sense. That's not something people just see, especially a fed disconnected from the random protester that was arrested (If you get what I'm saying).
7/ There was someone asking about who the organizers were to inform them a felony was being committed (I think there are different grades of crime based on knowledge of crime).I also saw a femme in bloc and shield appearing to secretly film (its possible they wanted to film cops)
8/ Then they also arrest the snack van guy and say it's because he pulled the statue down with van. Im pretty sure that did not happen. I don't know why they are using these justifications to target. They have been doing whatever they want. Maybe because they got negative...
9/attention for arresting 26 protesters the night before, for crimes they looked like they were going to commit in the future.
10/Police claim "the incident met the legal definition of a riot." They never use the terminology, "legal definition", and they have declared many riots. As "Law" enforcement, they should always declare riots based on criteria determined by the "Law". Yes, this was an actual riot
