Laurelhurst neighborhood is one of the upper middle class enclaves on the East side of Portland. This demonstration started in the park, a lovely location full of trees that have been there for 100 years and a lovely duck pond. Most of us are also liberal as heck and agree with whatever a peaceful protest has to offer.
This march was called just a few hours ago and there are thousands of people here. The crowd seems to have marched away from the park and are apparently staging a sit in at the nearby police station.
Helicopters are overhead, police sirens are constant….so far haven’t heard any shooting. This better stay the fuck calm.
