Meanwhile the protesters have brought in shield walls, foam to block the cops' view through the fence, la crosse rackets, lasers, leaf blowers, etc. Last night the protestors brought power tools and finally got the fence down again.
Wonder what they'll do tonight.

Imagine a world in which these people put half of the energy they spend on trashcan shields and poop bombs into things like tutoring kids or providing free-of-charge daycare services. You know, things that actually help improve black lives.verb_to_trust wrote:I know that if I was out of work I'd be flinging my shit and piss and the Portland Police every night instead of desperately trying to find a job.elliseamos wrote:With millions out of work, for some reason that has disappeared from my brain, I doubt it.verb_to_trust wrote:Go to bed early to make sure they are well rested for the work week?BurtReynolds wrote:It's been interesting to watch the evolution.

But seriously, what conversation? You've post like 50 words in this thread in the last month. I love to have conversations here but we gotta meet half way where you post what you honestly think and feel and not just occasional snark.

Ironically, it contributed more to the world than the Portland protests.
