They just heavily gassed. Went thru my full face again. the medics were saying it was going through their masks too. There were very young children present. This is the road nearby ten minutes after the gassing started. The gas is still visible as I type this. Crowd regroup and energy is high. “Killing in the name of” now playing on loud speaker. More later nothing will upload not even pics

This far right ICE supporter came to cause problems. There was a scuffle and then he pulled out his mace. He’s still here.

Another very heavy round of teargas after a dumpster got rolled over onto the driveway of the ICE facility. Uploading anything is taking ages right now.

Attached: 1 image Massive crowd at Elizabeth Caruthers park just a few blocks away from the Portland ICE facility for the Labor Against ICE rally and march. Lots of various unions out showing support. Not sure I’ve ever seen a crowd this big at a rally here #pdx #portland

That was a gnarly wave of teargas. No luck uploading anything and need to conserve battery. It cleared out a lot of people but still a large crowd remains

From that last wave of teargas. Videos are a little glitchy. Some photographers were complaining about issues with their cameras as well from the amount of gas.

@alissaazar are people able to pick up and throw the teargas away?
