Latest Portland news - people are unhappy because Portland police put the mug shots of those arrested at the raid on Tuesday up on facebook, and some of them are minors. Police responded saying that it's their standard procedure in cases involving heightened public interest and it all seems relatively civil and chill.
Less civil and chill - I was reading on twitter that during last night's march some protesters may have pushed a police officer into traffic (I haven't seen any report of injury). Basically, it's got to suck to be a cop right now, but it seems that the Portland police are showing a lot of restraint and individual officers are pretty committed to not escalating this... fingers crossed.
