Marcus Edwards is a self described "God fearing," pro-cop, pro-military, pro-president Trump, U.S. nationalist. He has grown tired of the "Black Lives Matter" slogan and is hostile to antifacist efforts. He has threatened to respond violently if US flags are burned or stepped on.

Readers may remember Justin Peterson, pictured here in the red sweatshirt, from April of 2017 when he participated in Jimmy Marr's "Hitler's birthday party" rally at his home in Springfield, Oregon. #springfieldprotests
Jonah Laskey (right), is a racist from the infamous neo-Nazi Laskey family known for their ties to the gang American Front & business Wolfclan Armory. Jonah is pictured here w/relative Jake Laskey- former leader of American Front who was recently imprisoned. #springfieldprotests
We tracked Don Stiffler of Oakridge, OR to membership within the 2018 chats of the international neo-Nazi group "The Base." We suspect he is responsible for the unofficial Patriot Front flyers that went up in Eugene on three occasions during the fall of 2018. #springfieldprotests
Don Sacrison is a member of the "Oregon Patriots Militia" group and has organized Far Right rallies in Lane County. He views Black Lives Matter advocates as the "black version of the KKK." #springfieldprotests
Isiah Wagoner is a Eugene resident & a leader of the group now calling itself "Black Unity." Members of the group work to pacify the uprisings & act as protest police. Wagoner racked up thousands of dollars in donations. He is pictured here, center, protecting pro-cop protesters.
Spelling correction: Justin Pederson
