First-hand account of Portland protests

Stewart Brand's son Noah, whom I know from the WELL, has posted this very cogent report of an anti-Bush protest in Portland where he was gassed sprayed and shot with rubber bullets, without provocation. This hasn't gotten much mainstream press-attention, though I've seen a number of home-movies of this floating around on the Internet, including a particularily troubling one where a stationary mother with an infant in her arms and her back to the cops is hosed down with pepperspray.
