Portland, OR thread.

Two years ago, the Kinney family lost their home in a foreclosure. The family, represented by their non-lawyer son, a sovereign citizen, tried to fight the foreclosure and in September, they were evicted by the police under order from the court.

The Kinney family had lived in the home for decades, but had taken out loans and then refinanced those loans to pay for their son's legal bills.

In response to the eviction, local activists took up the cause, and over the next few weeks, support grew.

The home and the surrounding blocks, have now been taken over by protesters as a autonomous zone, similar to what happened this summer in Seattle.
