ChuckModi @ChuckModi1Update from defiant Portland man who wouldnt flinch or budge while being beaten/sprayed by cops.
He is Navy and the police broke his hand to honor him.

My hand is pretty damaged. The hand surgeon splinted it for now, but it looks like plates, screws and/or pins await me on Friday.

We used to have the very best in the nation here in town.

(12,699 posts)Stuck in a small, hot, windowless room with 20 other people wearing a rubber suit and OBA (Oxygen Breathing Appratus) and then they drop the tear gas cannisters in. And you wait until they tell you to take the OBA off, then you stay in as long as you can. I lasted 1 minute. 2 was the max they let anyone stay. Average was 35 seconds, men and women.
Ah those were the days...
Getting hit with batons and standing for it now; that was a mensch move.

(193 posts)Thank you Tazerface 16. Your courage and determination are inspirational for all of us.
We all need to show this level of determination when it comes to voting in 105 days, 17 hours and 35 minutes!
I'd walk through hell to cast this vote!
calimary
(81,607 posts)YES! You're not alone! For me, the statement usually includes a mention about "crawling over ground glass to vote." And yeah. If that's what it takes, so be it.
