Why is Oregon so effed up?

I was in the Portland area, Hillsboro, in mid February and it was beautiful. Took a drive on US27 to Cannon Beach and the drive was beautiful(it was actually sunny), and all the people were nice. The only thing that was negative were the gas prices.

Baloney. Everyone in Oregon is just like the terrorist in Portland and Eugene. If they weren’t they’d do something about it. No sane person can condone what’s happening in Portland and Eugene, so stop making excuses for them. Blaming it on the Mayor and Governor won’t wash either, They voted those slugs into office and I bet they would do it again.

True, I live in Southern Oregon and we’re as redneck, rural and conservative as any little town in the South or Texas.

Many of my fellow Oregonians are moving to Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and Alaska to escape the loons who’ve taken over.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a considerable number of people in the Pacific coast states have grandparents and great-grandparents who were the hippies of the 1950s and 60s. (I think that San Fran has been referred to as the hippie capitol of the world.)

In other words, their “angry at government corruption” hippie grandparents, also constitutionally clueless, ultimately traded their “threads” and sandals for business attire and got themselves elected to public office to “save the world,” but are now screwing things up worse than the original crook politicians did imo.

Corrections, insights welcome.

Send “Orange Man Bad” federal and state government desperate Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a “third term” in office imo.

If we follow your logic, I suppose everyone in California are just like the morons in LA, San Fransicko and Sacramento too?

Would that include many loyal FReepers there as well as FR's owner?

Generalizations like that are false and counter-productive.

Mail in voting. Stuck with Democrats. Even if as some are corrupt, another Democrat takes their place.

No, you are wrong.

There is a petition where a majority of counties want to join Idaho.

With a degenerate Governor the whole state is degenerated.

Most of the rural counties in every state voted for President Trump.

It is the city folks, far from nature and far from common sense, who have “lost it”.

It’s been messed up since I can recall and first lived in Portland as a little chitlin in 1968. A year later we moved across the river to Vancouver, WA

They have an attitude that Oregon has to be first in everything. They were first to focus on the environment to try to destroy their economy and focus mainly on tourism as their primary industry. Their drivers are some of the worst as they didn’t teach drivers ed. in HS.

Even though they were republican led for years they were mostly RINOs.

I’ve hated everything Oregon for 52 years now, even though I have my engineering degree from Oregon Institute of Technology

Born in Pendleton, raised in Weston. I’ve got allot of friends and family still there. It hurts the heart to see what the Western side of Oregon has become and how helpless the rest of the state is. The eastern side of Oregon is like a different state anymore, a state held hostage.

Portland has the San Francisco of Oregon, since before the turn of the millennium. In the ‘90’s, Portland was seething with women executives proving their elitism and feminazism to every subordinate worker of either sex.

Portland State University, in downtown Portland, was seething with the sjw’s and communista.

The pumps are all self-service. There may be a few full-service ones left but I haven’t seen them.

“Many of my fellow Oregonians are moving to Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and Alaska to escape the loons who’ve taken over.”

So.... what’s the difference between Americans running from insanity and Mexicans running from insanity?
