    Default With law enforcement out of sight, Portland sees second peaceful night of protest

    PORTLAND, Ore. — For the second consecutive evening after federal law enforcement officers retreated from the front lines in this city, protesters had almost no interaction with state police as thousands gathered downtown until early Saturday morning.

    Oregon State Police, who took over in the protection of a federal courthouse on Thursday, were rarely seen outside the building, despite a lingering crowd that screamed anti-police slogans and set several large fires in the street.

    Portland sees 150-round shooting at apartment building, as crowds continue violent clashes with police

    More than 150 rounds were fired and one woman was shot in Portland on Friday night while protesters on Saturday – some of whom appeared to impersonate press – threw glass bottles and shined lasers at city police officers sent to quell the nighttime unrest witnessed for more than two months straight.

    What do the protestors want? What is the change they seek? They seem like they're just out there for show to make some noise and squeal "Orange man bad! Look how bad the country is that we're out here smashing up"

    Who cares what they want? If they think violence is an effective tool to getting their message out, they are sorely mistaken.

    I see. When you said, "What do the protestors want?" you were lying.

    Why the fuck would I invest my time in learning what they want? What kind of question is this? Is is supposed to suggest I'm at fault for not knowing what vandals and looters want?
