The story behind the surreal photos of Portland protester 'Naked Athena'

[FuzzyRabbit]

It was 1:45 a.m. Dave Killen, a photographer for The Oregonian/OregonLive, was nearing the end of his shift covering the nightly protests in Portland.

Then, a naked woman appeared. She walked out to the intersection in front of where police were standing. Killen said she was wearing only a face mask and a stocking cap while she was facing the police.

4. Looks like she was quite effective in deescalating the situation.

And she promptly left when her job was done.

5. Typical Incels--They talk about naked girls and when one is in front of them, they run home to mama!
