My cousin’s son-in-law (who is a dumbass) lives in Seattle and drove through Portland the other day to announce “It’s not that bad there, guys. Don’t believe the right wing media.”

I responded that it’s like the number of police incidents gone bad. No response.

"In Portland they are throwing pee on people that won’t raise their fist in the air or kneel in front of BLM. I live in Portland and watched 3 people get pee thrown on them from water bottles. BLM told them “All White people will eventually bow or Die”

i have a friend in Portland. He moved there 3 years ago with his family. He is an old hippy that has always wanted to live near portland. He is done, we spoke last week and he said him and the family are litterly leaving town before the election. He is scared the city will burn in Trump wins. He hasn't said he is moving yet and i don't know if that is the next step but i think he is super close.

I was in Portland in early March. Beautiful city and area. Homeless living on the streets and shooting up heroin, not so nice. They let that trash roam the city and this is the outcome.



same for both seattle and portland

The real damage is economic. Lots of national retailers and local retailers (Bonobos, Apple, Nordstrom, Dr. Air Martens, etc) are boarded up and not open.

Would think it would be doing bust out business with all the ANTIFA types in town

I have a daughter living in Seattle, and she has a brother-in-law living in Portland. In each case they say the chaos is localized, and if you're 10 blocks away you'd never know.

My brother (big conservative) has a way left buddy who move to Portland 15 years ago. My brother talked to him recently and was surprised to hear him bad-mouthing the rioters. Although still a leftist, he is on the law and order side.

Why are they hating Wheeler? He's a Dem and they voted his arse in.

They are controlled by professional revolutionists

The plan is to jerk everything to the left, even when it's obvious it's a fake move

Well apparently this is not blown to far out of proportion because Wheeler has been forced out of his condo.

Hes moving.

I traveled to Portland a lot. My Rep lived in the City. Thankfully our business was over the mountain at Bonneville and the Wind Farms along the gorge.

Even though we had multiple meetings downtown with Iberdrola, while securing their Wind Farm business.

Rep asked one afternoon about my opinion of Wind Farms. We were out on the gorge. "Get in the SUV and ride .....There they were, in a perfect line following the shadow cast by a 200 foot tall turbine tower. Not a tree to be seen, 115 in the shade, broiling ....and every Black Angus lined in the neat row within the shadow following like a giant sundial......My opinion? Shade trees for cows.

Where sanity actually exists ....
