#HandsOff photos of protests in Portland, St. Johns, and Tigard Oregon. As well as some from Vancouver Washington. These were collected from all over Facebook. (I think one from Portland Maine might have slipped in somehow!)

Feb 2008: I will quit Flickr if the MS purchase of Yahoo goes through. I will miss the wonderful people and talented photographers I've virtually met on Flickr though.

May 4, 2008: MS dropped their offer for Y! last night. Should I shout "Hurray!" or "Yahoo!"? :-) Now, who's complaining that CEO Yang is not going a good job running Y!? IMHO, this was an very smoothly fought battle to avert a takeover and the members of the Y! leadership, especially Yang, deserve great credit.
Nov 6, 2008: "To this day, I believe the best thing for Microsoft to do is to buy Yahoo," the Associated Press quoted Yang as saying on Nov 5th.

Oh brother.
This girl went down the police line offering flowers to the police and kept going regardless of how many turned her down. The whole time I was watching I saw one police accept the flower. I'm happy that it matches their rain coats.

A protest, organised by the recently formed group Stroud District Together with Refugees, took place outside the Subscription Rooms on Monday evening.
Around 70 people gathered on the Sub Rooms forecourt, with plaques and banners, and staged a 30-minute silent vigil opposing Government plans to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda. A similar protest was held in June.
Leader of Stroud District Council, Cllr Catherine Braun (Green, Wotton-under-Edge) later addressed the protestors, saying: “I think the policy is horrendous and there are no legal and safe ways for people to claim asylum in the UK and if legal and safe routes existed, desperate people who are fleeing violence, conflict and persecution would take them and they would not risk their lives embarking on dangerous journeys like crossing the channel, so the most important thing is that the government sets up safe and legal ways for people who are in need of refuge to come to the United Kingdom.”
Caroline Beatty, one of the organisers, said: “We are holding this vigil today because it’s the first day of the High Court hearing to decide the legality of the government policy to transport people to Rwanda. It’s going to take five days as far as we know and then there’ll be a second hearing in October. We’re horrified that they appear to be going ahead without even knowing if it’s legal or not.
“There will be people all over the country who are showing their deep concern about this. I think it needs to be exposed for what it is, and I was looking at the definitions of smuggling and trafficking – people smuggling is the action or practise of illegally transporting people from one country to another and that is what the government policy may well turn out to be, a form of people smuggling – nationally and internationally sanctioned.
“I think the government is playing a very strange game and it’s horrible, but they’re kind of legitimising the very behaviour that they claim to be trying to stop.”
Cllr Braun added: “It’s just so great to see the number of people who’ve turned out on a Monday evening to be part of a National Day of Action here in Stroud. This is a new group, Stroud District Together with Refugees, which has been set up just in response to this new policy around deportation of asylum seekers to Rwanda.
“People feel very strongly about it. I think the Conservative Party have really timed this wrong. They haven’t captured the mood of the country. People want to welcome refugees to our country and to provide them with safe and legal routes to apply – we see how people have opened their homes to Ukrainian refugees during the war.
“I think most people in this country would like to see ways for people to safely claim refuge in the United Kingdom.”

Protestors lined a busy Stroud High Street on Saturday morning to protest against the renewed violence in Gaza.
The rally was organised at short notice on Thursday evening as a direct response to the breaking of the ceasefire and Israel’s bombing of Gaza. It was organised by the Stroud Ceasefire Now Coalition, a group that has held vigils every Friday evening in Stroud since late 2023.
Theresa Mansbridge introduced the first speaker, Michelle from Stroud Against Racism, before Meg and Teddy from RYSE (Radical Youth Space for Educations) performed a song.
Jeremy Green from Stroud Constituency Labour Party read a statement from Stroud MP Dr Simon Opher: “Can I start by saying that I’m really sorry that I cannot be with you all in person today. But thank you for asking me to be part of this demonstration of peace, humanity, and solidarity with the Palestinian people.
“We had all hoped that the ceasefire would hold and provide some relief for the people of Gaza. Instead, we witnessed Israel’s blatant disregard for the terms of the ceasefire with their killing of some 400 Palestinians and injuring of over 500 – an appalling escalation.
“Those who are responsible for Israel’s war crimes must be held to account. The time for government action is now. It is unacceptable that British-made weapons continue to be exported and used by the Israeli government in Gaza. I am continuing to push the Government to implement a full ban on arms transfers to Israel, not just the current 30.
“We can and we must go further. It’s why I am calling on the Government to impose travel bans and assets freezes against all individuals with involvement in maintaining the illegal occupation, to ban imports from illegal Israeli settlements and to tear up the 2030 roadmap which seeks to deepen ties with the Israeli government.
“I want to thank the hundreds of constituents who have gotten in touch with me. It is a powerful reminder that the people of Stroud will always stand on the side of peace, justice and human rights.”
Other speakers were Colin Levine from Na’amod and Robin Layfield representing Stroud District Palestine Solidarity Campaign.
The Stroud Ceasefire Now Coalition consists of: Stroud Friends of Palestine; Stroud Against Racism; Parents for Future Stroud; The RYSE; Stroud Quakers; Nailsworth Quakers; Stroud Red Band; Stroud District Palestine Solidarity Campaign; Stroud District Together With Refugees and Community Solidarity Stroud District.

Protest to raise awareness of the failure of Stewart Milnes involvement with Aberdeen Football Club.
Changes are needed
Hundreds of Australians formed a chain around Parliament House to show their disappointment in the Government's weak 2020 carbon pollution reduction target of only 5%.
Hundreds of people marched through the centre of Melbourne in protest against Israel's latest atrocities in Gaza.
On 1 May 2023, Palestine Action organised outside UAV Tactical Systems, a subsidiary of Elbit Systems UK, to protest against the company's alleged manufacturing and supply of armed drones to the Israeli military. The “siege” was stationed outside the factory and in a nearby woodland, with many protestors setting up tents and intending to stay until the factory closed for good.
The Gazette reporters were on the ground for Day One.
This is the moment that Fox will lie about. Rioters breaking windows, doors and gaining access to a closed capitol.
I arrived at the capitol at about 6:50pm. You could hear the protesters 2 blocks away yelling "Shame" and "Let us in!" I make my way up to the King St entrance and I'm there all of about 2 minutes when it falls silent instantly. Everybody is listening intently to something and it's soon made known that some republicans are trying to leave the building, so people start going to many different exits to block them and I head over to the main MLK street entrance that I believe is the governors office, but I could be wrong on that, along with a huge flow of other people. There's a stream of people milling around and chanting so I make my way up the steps to the second floor entrance where there's a large crowd shouting "Shame!" I push closer and closer and there's a wall of police blocking the doors. We keep thinking they're about to escort someone out, but it never happens. Finally some police form a single file line and march out, but the doors are still locked with police on the inside looking out.
Meanwhile, I've pushed up to about 2 people behind the doors when all of a sudden, a window to the left of me beside the doors opens up and there's a woman waving people to come in quickly. The window leads into a bathroom. People look around in amazement and wonder what this is all about. The woman again motions for people to get in here. So the most amazing thing happens. A bunch of people press up against the main doors and use their signs to block the view of the open window that people are now filing into. I start firing off pictures, which is what you see above. About 10 seconds pass and I'm wondering if I have a chance of getting in. All sorts of complications are running through my head. A: it's been made illegal as of last week to enter after 6. B: is it a trick? C: The cops have gotta see this and are probably right inside there where I can't see. D: But what is inside? This is the start! GO!
I decide I might not have another chance. I hop through. No sooner than I make it to the door of the bathroom that I am met with police. Oh crap is all I can think. However, it immediately reminds me of a college beer party bust. They weren't even looking at me. They were trying desperately to push past me to get to the window while I was trying to push past them to get in through the door. In the moment of confusion I realized I wasn't going to be in any danger since it was clear all they wanted was to shut the window and stop the flow of people coming in. So I just flattened against the door frame to let the 3 get past me and then I proceeded to get into the hallway.
I can a lot of cheering inside and it turns out there were a couple hundred inside still from before the capitol closed for the night that hadn't left. And this, of course, is when it got interesting. A couple more times huge roars would erupt as a dozen or so people come running in from different hallways. There must be more sneaking in. After about 10 minutes chants of "Let Them In!" began. After only a minute or so, it fell silent and a handful of people ran to the west exit. Another moment of silence followed by huge eruptions of cheering as what seemed like hundreds after hundreds came flowing in from all directions. They gave up and opened the doors!
