He tried to peacefully convince Trumps Troopers that they were violating their oaths to the Constitution. He was baton-ed and pepper sprayed for his trouble.

Really!

I read his own account of what he did and he chose to get in their faces just as the Feds were responding to vandals beginning to tear down a protective fence. He got what people who deliberately place themselves between police and perps, to obstruct the police, usually get...treated like an accessory to crime.

A Navy veteran said he went to a protest in Portland to talk with the federal agents deployed by President Donald Trump. Instead, he was beaten and sprayed with pepper gas in a confrontation captured in a now-viral video.

Although protests in Portland have been going on for weeks, Christopher David, 53, told the Associated Press he decided to join the protest for the first time Saturday night because he was disturbed by reports of federal officers in unmarked cars arresting people without explanation.

“What they were doing was unconstitutional,” said David, a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy and a Navy veteran. ”Sometimes I worry that people take the oath of office or the oath to the Constitution, and it’s just a set of words that mean nothing. They really don’t feel in their heart the weight of those words.”
