#Portland - militarized police "take a knee" to don gas masks and fighting gear to riot into a peaceful protest. Crowds "getting used to teargas, getting used to flashbangs," chanting "Hold your ground!" and "George Floyd" and " Breonna Taylor "

Extreme gas attack underway in #Portland right now on livestream link above
Let's hear from the community. What are your demands from the government? What should happen to resolve all the systematic problems in the country?
Do we need policing? If so how should we handle it so abuse of power and the blue line doesn't exist. If not, what should the extent of public safety be?
Send your thoughts to @BLMProtestsBot and we'll share them here :)

"at the bare minimum, there needs to be a citizens oversight board of the police. a police department should never "investigate themselves"
AGREED!
AGREED!
"Abolish police unions"
"All PDs in this country need to be dissolved and recreated under community control, they are obviously out of the control and irreparable now"

"A citizens oversight board, for sure. But also use of force policies need to be very clearly in place and upheld. Required intervention, de-escalation, banning choke holds and any other use of force proven to be over utilized. Required reporting, and required to keep their body cams on or else face a fine or put on suspension. If they have to use escalated force they need to learn how to back off at the soonest possible point."
It's ridiculous how much of their training is in how to shoot and how to use force, but not when and how NOT to use it.

"an ideal world is the abolishment of PDs, and reformed way of “maintaining peace” and protecting citizens. but
- there must be civilian oversight boards in all cities
- no more lethal weapons/force. if not, there needs to also be an act to make it illegal to use a lethal weapon/force on an unarmed person/person with their hands up.
- restitution to all families who have lost a member to police brutality
- demilitarize the police
- de prioritize low level offenses
george floyd specific;
- charge and convinct all 4 police involved with ATLEAST second degree murder.
- reinstitution for george’s family"

"IMO decentralization of the federal government would get us closer to a type of government that will cover more people.
For example, coming from California, a lot of housing prices are insanely high. When the stimulus checks came out from the federal government, that amount sometimes doesn't even cover 1/2 of monthly rent for the poorer communities in California, although, it might be able to cover more of it in more rural parts of the country. Distributing based on national average leaves a lot of outliers unaccomodated for, and the working class in those areas tend to struggle more to make rent during the pandemic.
If the government were less centralized, focusing on what works for everyone, working class people everywhere can get the help they need better."

"Ban the use of chemical or explosive agents against civilians by the government or by entities working on behalf of the government and their subcontractors."
See, you'd think this would be action needed to be taken in a "third-world country" or countries the US typically sanctions for these reasons, but nope, just plain ol' murica.
