What do the protester in Portland want?

I cannot find an answer to this anywhere.  Why are they protesting?

    Nine unarmed black men were killed by police last year  (and 19 unarmed white men).  Why did they not protest last year?  Because it was not an election year.  Those crazy Democrats will do anything to beat Trump because he is a threat to their globalist agenda.  Most of the protesters do not know what they want.

    A utopian society the likes of which has never existed and can never exist.

    There are two factions of people involved in the

    actions taking place in Portland Oregon. 1. Yes.

    you do have a segment of Peacful Protesters.

    2. And you have a overwhelming number of

    radical anarchist who come in behind them at

    midnight each night. Good two shoes. Runs like

    a fcking rabbit home. And leaves the rough stuff

    to the paid anarchist.  And the press never calls

    a spade a damn spade in the switch game.  

    So after Midnight. I would have no problem with

    what ever form of extreme force it required to

    remove. Destroy. And break down the anarchist.

    Including the use of deadly force if officers lives

    were at stake.

    That's because you're stupid, plumpy. They are protesting for equal treatment by law enforcement.

    They're protesting police brutality. I was just there the other day and a lot of people were holding signs that made statements against racism and police brutality.

    They want to get President Trump out of the White House.  They don't care how badly they trash their city in the process, because the Feds will pay for the clean-up,

    Oh, don't be so silly! They want an end to police brutality, just like all the protests around the country kicked off by the murder of George Floyd. They want some changes made to the way the police operate, and some promises that detained subjects won't be murdered for the crime of passing a back check.
