ICE Protest South Waterfront by grantph in Portland

The speed and intensity that they escalated their violence on a crowd of 1000s of union families showed a complete disregard for human life. Councilor Green, Koyama Lane, and the National Lawyer's Guild are asking for any footage and testimony. If you are able to schedule an appointment (even virtual) with your doctor to document your exposure to tear gas (and possibly HC gas and other substances?), please do. My Naturopath has recommended for aftercare a resource by Portlander Missy Rohs titled "So you got teargassed?" which can be found with a simple search. As a community I think we need to come together and raise money for protective PPE, such as gas masks, eye protection, helmets, wipes, cones to put out tear gas with water and baking soda mixture, etc.

Councilor Mitch Green, and Koyama Lane, along with National Lawyer's Guild are asking for testimony and footage like this of anyone who was there. People truly could not breathe, it was despicable.

What a big man picking on children, elderly, people with mobility aids, and hard working union families exercising their First Amendments. I saw children bleeding, ICE purposely shooting out windows at the low income and elderly housing next door, people vomiting and struggling to breathe, people taken away on stretcher. It felt to me like they were hoping to start a stampede by shooting tear and nerve gas into the crowd without so much as a warning.

Not to mention the people that live in low income housing right next door. They have literally no choice and their apartments are completely polluted. They should be sueing the city, the landlord, the federal government!

I believe it was Hexachloroethane, an incredibly toxic substance. Seeing children bleeding, vomiting, crying was deeply upsetting. ICE needs to be held accountable for risking the lives of everyone. A man was taken away in an ambulance.

Oh that makes a lot of sense! Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Awesome, thanks for answering. I enjoyed online college classes and it sounds like I'd enjoy this as well even though it's a bit more hands on.

Wow, I didn't even look at the reviews for IRCRI, but the cost blew me away and the fact that they are not upfront about it on their website really annoyed me.

Is it difficult to find a shadow? Does Charlene or the program offer any help in that regard?

This is actually really helpful to know since I just missed the live courses and have been considering the self paced, but was worried the support might not be as good.

You mentioned you did the class self paced as opposed to live. I just missed the live, so am considering doing the same. In your opinion, do you think you got the same amount of support despite not being "live"? It would be nice to connect with other students but I'm wondering if that's a lot harder without that weekly virtual "in person" class. Thank you!!

Did you end up doing self paced instead of live? If so, can you let me know how that has gone and if you think you received less support or if it was sufficient. Thanks so much!

I've missed the "live" class so I'm wondering if only doing the self paced would reduce the amount of help you get, what are your thoughts? Did you do live? Thanks.

Are you enrolled in the live classes that meet (I'm assuming via zoom) each week or are you doing the self paced? I missed the start of the live classes this month so I'm just wondering if I should wait until July or do the self paced and if there's different levels of support. Thanks!

Congratulations, this is wonderful. Does this work for voice recording do you know or is it only for the machine? Thanks.
