Something the Portland GDC likes to think about, talk about, and train about is the concept of Relational Security. These are some of the principles that term refers to.

Hi Portland! I see a lot of you are getting interested in how our police bureau works. As someone who’s reported on Portland cops for a few years, I’m THRILLED. To help get you up to speed, I thought I’d share some past stories I’ve written on policing in Portland:

To @pdxfieldoffice: It has been brought to our attention that certain behaviors of your Affinity Group (AG) are disconcerting, per Operational & Security standards established by activists. This thread will enumerate these issues.

Due to safety concerns and logistics from leadership we are postponing. Tell everyone to stand down and let’s raise hell at the justice center tonight.

A group of OSHU grad students have been offering free medical care and supplies to downtown protesters for 15 nights straight. They say Saturday night's arrest and intimidation from PPB won't stop their work. "It's clear the community needs us." portlandmercury.com/blogtown/2020/…

OHSU administration donates tables, tents and supplies to support the struggle against police brutality. PSU administration murders people with it's militarized police force and works with PPB to harass protestors and houseless people.

BREAKING: Multnomah County's top prosecutor is resigning five months early "As human beings and as public servants, we must reject racism, bigotry, and hatred," he said in a letter to staff pamplinmedia.com/pt/9-news/4705…

At Portland State University, the Board of Trustees are currently having their quarterly meeting. President Steve Percy is giving a report on campus public safety in response to the #DisarmPSU movement. He asks to "give him more time". PSU Student Union asked for years!!

They did it, they really did it. Sucks to be George Washington right now... #Portlandprotest #statue #blacklivesmatter   #PDXprotests #pdx #oregon #blm #acab #pdx #georgewashington #flagburning #StatuesMustFall

These are just a couple example scripts, but let’s make sure Percy has a lot to listen to on Monday. Call 2, 3 or 4 times to make sure he hears! We WILL disarm PSU and we WILL resist austerity measures such as BS tuition hikes
