Jay Bishop of Patriot Prayer a.k.a. Aaron Danielson was shot and killed in downtown Portland, Oregon near the Justice Center in what appears to have been a self defense shooting earlier tonight. Michael Reinoehl has been named as the suspect by several unconfirmed online sources including one that appears to match an image of the shooter filmed earlier tonight with pictures of Reinoehl that show a matching tattoo (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/08/4chan-users-appear-identified-portland-rioter-shot-killed-trump-supporter/). Assfault Pirates captured part of the incident on their live stream and was originally reporting that a person of color in a red car fired three shots, one man was down, the man down was not moving, and was last seen in an ambulance (https://twitter.com/EricWasserman1/status/1299921732594053122). The red car may have been a Dodge Charger, but after reviewing video from other angles we have concluded that the red car was not involved and the shooter was a man in white clothes the we believe could be Caucasian named Michael Reinoehl.


After analyzing the original stream of this shooting from Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10221132149871196&id=1167905585 and adding a clip from it embedded below, we believe that it shows the dead Patriot Prayer guy spraying something at the shooter. We also believe we hear a brief spraying sound before the first shot. If that is pepper spray than this is a self defense shooting. This Tweet contains a screenshot of the blur we believe to be a type of spray coming from Bishop before the first shot (https://twitter.com/CopBlaster/status/1299977693287477248).


The Multnomah County District Attoreney's Office (MCDA) (https://twitter.com/MultCoDA/status/1299929181694771201) announced Bishop's death not long after the shooting. This photo of Bishop from a different angle clearly shows a Thin Blue Line flag on his shorts (https://twitter.com/stillgray/status/1299944855095787521/photo/1) and The New York Times is reporting that he was wearing a Patriot Prayer hat (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/30/us/portland-trump-rally-shooting.html).


The video shows only two shots and not three as originally reported. A photo of the deceased has surfaced from earlier in the day, According to Portland Tribune reporter Zane Sparling, he refused to be interviewed but the guy with him said they were there to stop people from attacking people, they also had paintball guns and knives (https://twitter.com/PDXzane/status/1299850435071627264/photo/2).


Another reason to doubt that this was a pre-meditated hit is because of how easy it was for 4Chan users to identify the shooter. He was pictured earlier in the day wearing the same outfit minus the kung flu mask. He didn't even bother to cover the tattoo on his neck and we are not aware of any other white guys with a tattoo like that. If he planned on shooting someone don't you think he would have worn a better disguise?


Anyone with any brains that has seen a real crime movie would know to cover up the tattoo, not allow people to photograph him without the mask on, and would have worn some better get away shoes than Birkenstock sandals.


UPDATE: This article is currently being rewritten to better document our belief that the shooter was defending himself from an attacker armed with pepper spray or bear mace.


UPDATE: We have updated this story to confirm the name of the deceased as Jay Byron Bishop


UPDATE: Additional footage shows that a Black Lives Matter protester and an Antifa medic tried to help Bishop after he was shot https://twitter.com/greg_doucette/status/1300236674056761350 her name is Sierra Boyne and she blames the Portland Police for not letting her help Bishop https://twitter.com/BoyneSierra/status/1300130924147781633


UPDATE: The family of Jay Bishop a.k.a. Aaron Danielson has a Go Fund Me setup. Our conclusion regarding the case so far has no bearing on the fact that nobody deserves to be going through what they are going through right now, so if you want help some grieving people out please check it out https://www.gofundme.com/f/aaron-danielson-official-page


UPDATE: Friends of Aaron "Jay" Danielson released this video today calling for an end to violence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSJn7ixpKdM we hope that their prayers are answered. We think that people are so scared of each other right now that they are quick to pull the trigger when they feel threatened. If it were not for these fears we don't think that Danielson would have been shot in the first place. When he maced or pepper sprayed Reinoehl we think he feared the worst and responded.


DISCLAIMER: We believe that Michael Reinoehl might be the shooter based on photos we have seen online where the shooter appears to have a tattoo like one Reinoehl is known to have, but are not certain. The shooter could be someone else with a similar tattoo, so do not use this article to form a conclusion one way or the other.

Just found out today that Jay Bishop a.k.a. Aaron Danielson was a supporter of my good personal friend Jeremy Christian who is now doing multiple life sentences for defending himself on a Max train with a knife when he was assaulted. Jeremy felt threatened in the same way that it appears Danielson's killer Michael Reinoehl felt threatened by him attacking him with mace before being shot.


Unlike me, Danielson thought that Jeremy should have been acquitted of all charges, but I thought he still was guilty of manslaughter with regard to Ricky Best. My opinion was based in part with a conversation I had with Jeremy in jail where he admitted that Best didn't do anything to him.

The link to the Go Fund Me page for Bishop's family has been posted towards the end of the article above. You can show your support for them by donating or sharing links to it. We don't think that why he was shot could ever change the fact that his family does not deserve to be going through this right now.

Bishop's real name was Aaron Danielson

Looks like initial reports from conservative media outlets naming the shooter as Jacob Jepson were not accurate. Other outlets are now supporting the Michael Reinoehl theory, which looks like it might make more sense, so we are going with that one now.

New video footage shows the immediate aftermath of the shooting in which an Antifa medic tried to save Jay Bishop but it was too late https://twitter.com/CopBlaster/status/1300199556840210432

Good to know the next time anqueefa or blm terrorists use mace its ok to smoke their punk ***.

If it turns out not to be Jepson I will say so. I figured that sine a lot of high profile people are naming him already and calling him a murderer that it wouldn't hurt him to have at least one person thinking it was self defense, so that is why I decided to include his name.

I'm getting a lot of stuff from people on social media over this. One person saying that the mace was self defense after seeing a gun. Who bring mace to a gun fight? What rational sense does it make to see a guy with a gun and attack him with mace? It makes no sense which is why I do not believe that the deceased knew that the shooter had a gun.
