EXCLUSIVE: Portland woman who confronted Antifa to sue city over allowing unlawful occupation at ICE facility

Cloud, who was recently featured in a viral video confronting Antifa for blasting a makeshift sonic weapon during quiet hours, told The Post Millennial in a statement on Friday that the Portland Police Bureau (PPB) has failed to uphold their oath in protecting the community from black clad agitators who have caused her neighborhood immense harm.

"For nearly a month, we've endured a level of noise that violates local and state laws. I have called the police and they won't come protect us. They've set up an entire process for how to report noise and firework violations for the 4th of July, but they leave us here trapped in nightly torture from noise way worse than fireworks," said Cloud, who lives in the apartment building across the street from the ICE office.

Since June 6, anti-ICE activists have been violently clashing with federal police officers outside the ICE office in Southwest Portland over the Trump administration's immigration enforcement efforts, necessitating the use of tear gas and other crowd control measures as officers defend themselves against attacks from those involved in the 24/7 Antifa occupation. The group has built a makeshift long-range acoustic device (LRAD) and has been blasting it near the ICE office after midnight on a near-nightly basis, infuriating surrounding residents who have had trouble sleeping since the occupation began roughly a month ago.

"People have been generous in trying to help me raise money to leave, but I learned it isn't that easy. There aren't many low-income units I can just move into, and as a woman with a disability and no transportation, moving is going to be difficult. I'm pretty much trapped for the time being until I can find a place to go," she continued. "So, I have hired an attorney to help me take back the peace in my community."

"Everyone has a right to protest, and I think protesting is an important way to make yourself heard. But someone's right to protest must be balanced by the rights of others. Portland police have picked a side, and it's not the side of the people who live in the community who are being harmed," said Cloud.

On social media, Cloud has shared screenshots of her repeated 911 calls, pleading for law enforcement to take action about the noise. Portland has a citywide noise ordinance law that prohibits excessive noise from 10 pm to 7 am on weekdays and 10 pm to 9 am on weekends. The law states, "It is unlawful for any person to willfully make, continue, cause or permit to be made or continued any noise disturbance within the City."

Additionally, Cloud has shared several video clips from inside her apartment unit, which detail the level of noise she and other residents have had to endure because of the occupation.

The Portland Police Bureau provided a statement to journalist Andy Ngo, senior editor of The Post Millennial, about the disruptive noise disturbances, which received immense criticism after it stated that while officers were aware of the situation, the PPB also remains committed to protecting the First Amendment rights of the protesters. This, despite the documented illegal noise violations.

In a follow-up email, the PPB said they were working with lawyers to determine the next course of action.

So far, more than 20 protesters involved in the occupation have been arrested for alleged criminal offenses, with 17 of them getting hit with federal charges.

Attorneys for Cloud have created a donation site for individuals who wish to support her legal efforts against the city, which can be found here.

The Post Millennial reached out to Mayor Keith Wilson's Office for comment.
