Want to talk about Portland, Oregon--(VANITY)
vanity | 4/9/15 | Mamzelle

Posted on 04/09/2015 5:30:13 AM PDT by Mamzelle

Dear Oregon Freepers--it's been my misfortune to have a particularly obnoxious, arrogant, condescending liberal from Portland become part of a cherished social circle. I have heard so much about "how we do it in Portland" that I started doing research about this area of the country, its politics, and finally its cruelty to the religious.

1) Portland has an ARTS TAX. Gasp. This means a little fiefdom seizes property under threat of tax liens and seizures to support a bunch of parasites and corrupt politicians…who decides who gets the money?

2) Considering Indiana and the Pizzaria--there has been very little attention paid to the Portland government supported persecution of Christians running Christian businesses…Case in point-- "Sweet Cakes by Melissa" who, when refusing to engage in a lesbian sacrilege, is fined by the government--$150,000. They are threatened with ruination, but I don't think they have gotten much crowd funding support.

3) I would love to hear any anecdotes by freepers on Portland and its apparent horrors. I already see how many horrible people live there.

Bend is completely full of CA transplants. But, being on the right side of the mountains is better than PDX or Eugene.

There are some very fine people who live in Oregon in and around Portland.
The Northwest portion of the USA is a different place.

Rather than wasting your time engaging in some sort of debate with this Portlandian Turd, I would find a new cherished circle of friends that refuses to tolerate obnoxious leftist interlopers.

Probably not the best advice, but anymore there needs to be a zero tolerance policy regarding who we associate with... lefists are sworn enemies, they aim to destroy everything good in my life and replace it with slavery to the state. That right there is reason enough to me to desire to place distance between myself and their kind (them and me? I am not an English major).

I have heard so much about “how we do it in Portland”

Do what I do when those California, northeastern
communist block yankee liberals and wetbacks start spouting that crap
down here in Texas.

Ask them why they are here and then tell them they are more
than welcome to move back to the crap hole they ran away from.
If it’s so great and they do everything the right
way then why are they here. Of course if your in one of those
pathetic liberal states then you really don’t have a leg
to stand on. Texas is good ground to stand on.

That’s an excellent approach. I think it should be a sin to
show liberals any respect whatsoever.

Portland is so far left that even the liberals mock it with a tv show.

Oh, this is the rural mountainous South. Hee hee. Tried to encourage her to relocate to Asheville, where the tattooed lesbians hulk and stride up and down Wall Street, seeking who they may devour. Unfortunately, I have to be "nice"--which is why I am here trying to arm myself with info.

I also want to get the word out to a few Freepers just how much Portland hates Christians.

I have been to Portland and found Powell's Bookstore to be positively delightful. It's just the pasty-white people (are there any black people in Oregon? for such liberals, they don't seem to welcome others of color…) that disgust.

Not ready to give up on my social circle. Wish there was more discussion of Sweet Cakes by Melissa. They are going to court this month!

It’s not the liberality, it’s the poorly concealed hate...but this person also seems terrified of Christians! It’s like she thinks the cross on my necklace is a swastika…Portlandia is about lovable DORKS. The show doesn’t allow any normal Christians a voice.

I suggest that you throw a “Portlandia Party” and feature all the BS Portlandia episodes. Encourage your friends to laugh at and discuss amongst themselves.

You could even provide fart-snifters (empty wine glass) for the eco-crowd along with free-range goat cheese and natural rice crackers as appetizers....have fun with it.

Satan hates the cross. What is not of the Lord in her is reacting to His presence in your cross.

Well, I have a cousin who’s son “came out” a few years ago, graduated from uni here with an “enviro sci” major, decided to move to Portland because it was more “gay friendly” and is now gainfully employed at a Petsmart and sports a ring through his nose...truly!
Sigh.....
