How the hell did our stupid ass town become an Antifa battleground every damn weekend? And can someone explain to me the white guy calling the other white guy a white supremacist? Is this white guilt or white privilege? I'm so confused right now. https://www.theblaze.com/video/watc...utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=theblaze
In order for it to be a "battleground" the non-antifa citizens need to be resisting. It appears that the good people of Portland need to stand up to this bullshit, both in the streets and in the ballot box.
To antifatards, if you don't just bow down to their totalitarianism and become fascists like them, you are resisting and thus battling them.
IIRC Oregon has some really lax gun laws (isn't this also where the Bundy stuff went down?). I'm really surprised these two populations have coexisted this long . That shit would never fly here.
In 1995 I spent a month in the Portland/Gresham area visiting friends I met playing soccer in England the previous summer. For years afterward I would constantly tell people how amazed I was at what seemed like a whole lot of Marines and hippies coexisting. The group of people I was hanging out in had many burnouts and two guys who just finished boot camp in San Diego. Seemed too good to be true then and I guess I either mistook what was actually going on or it was too good to last. Either way, Portland looks completely different when I visit than what I remembered from my first trip.
I just love the "Run me over and Ill kick your ass" comments. If I "run you over" you will be a stain. Just sayin
It would be awesome to have someone say "OK I accept, please get out front so I don't have to swerve into any of yours pals"
Portland vs the rest of Oregon is a lot like Austin vs the rest of Texas. Really two totally different places and the population of Portland isn't enough to offset the voting from the rest of the state. So it remains pretty 2A friendly although the opposition is getting stronger as the Californians seek to turn it into what they left.
Well, you may have to include Eugene and Corvallis....probably Bend too....But Or is deffinately of two minds.
College kids just complain, they don't vote But yeah, I forgot about Bend, which again seems to be more of an influence of people coming from out of state. I basically look at it as "Lake Tahoe North" these days.
