There was a conservative protest today in downtown Portland. Antifa came to attack the attendees. As they were leaving, antifa tried to steal a woman’s US flag (she’s a person of color). She refused to let go & they pulled her to ground by her hair. She still didn’t let go.

Last night there was a protest in front of the Penumbra Kelly Building in #PortlandOregon. The majority of the event was calm, filled with music, speeches, marches, etc. the end of the evening ultimately was violent. This is my account of what I witnessed.
