A woman driving a Prius with “press” written on the side had her car tires slashed and rear window shattered by Portland police as she tried to leave the scene of a heated weekend demonstration on the city’s east side, according to the woman and videos of the encounter.

Zippy Lomax, 44, said Monday she still feels traumatized nearly two days after police in riot gear smashed up the Toyota in the middle of a residential street after they declared a disturbance and tried to clear the area.

“I could not stop crying yesterday,” said Lomax, who has photographed and livestreamed Portland’s protests against racial injustice almost every night since they began at the end of May. “I was actually terrified for my life.”

Police said they believed the car was “a hazard.”

Every person with a cell phone camera is claiming to be a journalist.

With BLM crap written on her car, it’s logical for the cops to think she is an agitator trying to fly under the radar by writing PRESS on the side.

If she expected to be treated like a journalist, she should not put stuff that indicates support for rioters. Dumb ass. Arrogant dumb ass.

Slashing tires? Have you ever tried cut the side of a steel belted radial with a knife? I’m not necessarily saying that it didn’t happen (I didn’t watch the video), but I think it must be quite difficult to do.

She should try brushing every now and then

She would but she'd have to look in the mirror to do it.

The word “press” appeared written several places in large letters on her Prius, including its rear window, along with messages in support of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Passover Syndrome.

She believed her signaling would give her safe passage.

That reminds me of why I went to law school rather than medical school. One of the questions on the medical school admissions test was what important structure can be formed from the letters einps? The correct answer was spine, unfortunately I wrote penis on the answer sheet. I think that is a spine injury.


Well, at least you had your priorities right.

Rioters have taken to wearing” press” on their clothes in hopes of avoiding police trouble. I’m put In mind of the flap over Geraldo putting lives in danger when he bragged of being armed in Desert Storm.

Aptly named car, Prius sounds like Pious. Reflects the type of persons who purchase them. At least Teslas can go like hell.

She’s not a journalist, or a member of the “Press”— she’s a girl with a camera and a Facebook page. LOL!
