@garbados The folks who are blocking the roads... Do their uniforms say Police DHS? DHS likes impersonating local police and have been called on it more than once by local governments.

(Not trying to defend local police there, just want blame assigned properly.)

@kurtm nope. it's pdx cops, unless DHS is using PDX uniforms too

here's the thing: we'll be back

the main camp isn't dismantled. discipline is holding. remember when occupy survived police sweep after police sweep? we have tactics for this. the occupation will go on.

abolish and prosecute ICE! hold every fascist accountable!

film the cops. it makes them nervous.

there are a couple feds on scene that didn't cover their faces (many did) but are still shying away from cameras. bowing their heads. averting their eyes. fidgeting nervously. ashamed.

take responsibility for your compliance, pigs. there is no Just Following Orders. we must all take responsibility for the machinery we enable, no matter how cruel or vicious or overwhelming.

DHS says they'll maintain an active presence as long as they need to, implying weeks.

i'd say this will strain their coffers, tying up agents from all over the country in one spot, but let's be honest: money is a smokescreen for the logistics of oppression. DHS won't pull out for running their budget. the budget just goes up.

DHS using a uhaul to carry away camp debris. hold collaborators responsible ✊

> This #gestapo raid sponsored by @uhaul. Uhaul: for all your fascist needs.

@garbados yep sounds about like uhaul

somehow unsurprised the rich racist suburbs would send goons

> So the “SRT” cops have LOSX on their helmets, must mean Lake Oswego Special Reponse/something. #OccupyICEPDX

arrests at gunpoint of passing motorists

> DHS made arrests today at gunpoint #occupyice #occupyICEPDX #pdx

that's three handguns, lethal ammo. another dozen off-camera during this arrest, also pointing weapons.

@garbados fuck, they look twitchy as fuck. This sounds like a recipe for disaster....

@archangelic y e p

@archangelic both sides are here to stay and i am not looking forward to the first cop with live ammo that loses their cool.

they sent killing machines.

hey DHS pssst it's not your homeland it's stolen land

just to reiterate, this isn't the end. the camp remains, occupiers have maintained discipline and cohesion, and their work continues. DHS plans to stay but this is our town and we will stay longer ✊

occupation tactics are long-term. develop infrastructure and hold out. occupiers were, in some sense, prepared for this.

abolish and prosecute ICE!

#OccupyICE #OccupyICEpdx

@garbados Get a couple of police scanners and monitor the DHS and local PD tactical networks. That's what we did at Occupy DC, and it's how we kept tabs on their plans.

@drwho i'll see about getting some

@garbados I recommend either the Uniden BC92XLT Bearcat or the Uniden BC75XLT.

Depending on how comfortable you are with Linux, you can also get a lot of use out of an RTL-SDR USB device.
