Thousands gathered in Portland, Oregon, to attend and protest against the “Gibson for Senate Freedom March,” a Patriot Prayer event on August 4.
Portland police stated that those with the appropriate licenses would be allowed to cary handguns but that rifles or other “long-guns” were prohibited. Joey Gibson, the founder of Patriot Prayer, streamed via Facebook Live on July 30, saying there have been guns at every Patriot Prayer rally but they would only be used in the case of self-defense.
