As Portland enters its 100th night of protest, there are several demonstrations happening across the city.
Protests began 100 days ago following the death of George Floyd, a Black man in Minnesota who died after a police officer knelt on his neck for nearly 8 minutes.
The protests have been concentrated largely around different areas in downtown from the Federal Courthouse to the Police Association Building. On Saturday, the protesters marched to the Portland Police Bureau’s East Precinct.
The police blocked hundreds of demonstrators from marching to a Southeast Portland police precinct Saturday night, then quickly declared the gathering a riot after people threw at least three incendiary devices toward officers.
Police used tear gas for the first time in September and arrested several people. The clashes played out for hours in the neighborhoods surrounding Ventura Park, where people initially gathered to protest police violence and anti-Black racism.
One of the far-left militants threw a Molotov cocktail in an attempt to hit police… but lit his fellow rioter on fire instead. Ironically, police officers had to step in to help them put it out.

That’s pretty much how the Weathermen finally met their end in NYC in the early ’70s. Their bomb makers blew themselves up.
The problem is that their mayors/gov won’t have any part of that, preferring to ignore their duty to protect their citizens.
The flame dance a one and a two step an one a two step..........
I spent some time with some Army combat engineers “a long time ago” who told me a proper Molotov cocktail contains gasoline, laundry detergent powder, and marbles.
They are the same. It looks to me like this one was filled with something other than gasoline.
