Usually it is HR quoting me, and not in a flattering way.
They missed my speech but at least they got the flag assembly in the shot.

This was my PA speaker. Someone said play music. And I'm like fuck yes. And for the first hour it was Bad Bunny.
I'm a 55 yo straight white dude. Tonight I got to be a Latin DJ and it was the best night ever.

That wins. That's the new best thing I've ever seen out there.

What ya want? Him to fist fight ICE? Hmm

You're welcome. We all have our lane. I seem to have some capacity for extemporaneous sermon type speeches. So I think I find my lane.

Just returned your message.

The ICE raids are not just a civil rights issue, but a human rights issue. The model for how to secure those rights is an American model. May the spirits of the great civil rights leaders guide us now. One cannot say they respect them while ignoring the lessons they gave us.

They hadn't declared an illegal assembly nor directed people to leave the area. Unarmed and speaking through a bullhorn to ICE to find their humanity. No one was near. I was targeted. this is an example that the content of a peaceful man's speech can be more powerful than any rock or fire bomb.

KGW talked to me. And I'll probably be talking to more media later today. That's me.

Just let me know where and we will have a beer!

This is how we teach civics in my house. We don't recite pledges to flags. We talk about responsibility. We love our neighbors, and we live our convictions. Even if it might hurt.
Father's day with my daughter the day after.

I will keep at least some vision in that eye. Thanks to the polycarbonate eyeglass lens. Most of the force went into the bone around the socket. The plastic lens cut the crap out of my eye brow but that will heal.
Being a nurse means advocating for everyone in the community. They won't quiet me.

They just gave me a bigger audience for my message. OHSU is a trauma ER. They took good care of me. Happy fathers day!

I'm keeping the eye. My eye glass lens saved the eye. I was targeted. No one was near me. And my bullhorn was on full blast. I think this is an example that the content of a peaceful man's speech can be more powerful than any rock or fire bomb.
