Militant police presence, 10 November 2016

Jul 19, 2017, 11:45 AM

Recorded by Tim Kahn.

"I recorded this on November 10, 2016 after Donald Trump was elected president. This was the second night of protests in Portland Oregon. The first night was very different and the police didn’t intervene. However on this night, the Portland police, who are notorious for being militant and aggressive showed why they have that reputation. The recording beings at the corner of SW 6th and Yamhill st. Portland, OR (you can hear this in the police announcement at the start of the recording)."
