Free Speech or Die

Invisible Choir

On May 26, 2017, 35-year-old Jeremy Christian boarded a train in Portland, Oregon - heavily intoxicated and armed with his “right to free speech” and a knife. What happened next aboard the TriMet MAX Light Rail would forever alter the course of every single passenger onboard. As investigators eventually pieced together what led up to one of Oregon’s most horrific attacks, they discovered several alarming warning signs in the 24 hours leading up to a tragedy that many speculate - might well have been preventable.
