The EPD officers were doing their job very professionally, but the guy they were arresting was not complying with their legal commands and was resisting. 97% of those shot by police are resisting arrest. Bad move. Do what they say and live to plead your case in court.

The crowd was obscenely rude and unruly, some were either interfering or close to it, and after the police left to de-escalate, are thinking they somehow "won." Next time will be worse and maybe someone gets hurt or killed. Meanwhile, areas of Eugene are left without police protection while they respond to these uncouth agitators trying to bring significance to their lives through the same dysfunctional methods they learn from Black Lives Matter on TV. What sad people they are, blaming their misfortune on others. One day they will need the police, who will come to help despite the unwarranted abuse these same people have heaped upon them.

Thank you EPD. Most of us appreciate you more than you know.
