Too funny!
Yep. I think the Portland Police did a good job in planning this out and excellent media communications.
Any problems will HAVE to be started by protesters. The police are being very hands-off.
They are starting to make a perimeter now. They just closed down Main St. between 3rd and 4th -- Main is the street you end up on coming west over the river across the Hawthorne Bridge so this could get interesting.
Sorry, but I'm here laughing my head off. The media created this "OMG! Deadline!" thing and its just funny watching this unfold with ... nothing!
Its even funnier if you know the reputation of the Portland Police. They got in trouble years ago for using the sleeper hold and printed up a bunch of T-shirts with a revolver on them saying "Don't Choke 'em. Smoke 'em!"
