Gov. Kate Brown dispatched state police to round up the lawmakers, prompting Dallas Republican Sen. Brian Boquist to warn the authorities to “send bachelors and come heavily armed.”

A larger demonstration was expected Sunday.

Could use a little of that in the US House.

This is a great use of the power of protesting.

Need to see more of it.

“send bachelors and come heavily armed.” Better yet, have Kate be the first one through the door.

Good to see Republicans getting assertive for a change.

“Send bachelors and come heavily armed” - I like that. We need to make these clowns THINK for once.

“send bachelors and come heavily armed.”

Where are the Republicans in chains being dragged back to Salem?

Are they that adept at hiding, or is the OSP that inept at Hide-'N-Go Seek?

[\/\/ayne]

Wow, a battle of DNC idiots against none-RINOs.

[TADSLOS]

My, My, My...

In Oregon, no less...

On Wednesday, The Oregonian reported that GOP state Sen. Brian Boquist threatened to kill state troopers if they try to keep him in the Senate chamber to debate climate change legislation.

“I’m quotable, so here’s the quote. This is what I told the [police] superintendent,” said Boquist to reporters outside the Senate chamber. “Send bachelors and come heavily armed. I’m not going to be a political prisoner in the state of Oregon. It’s just that simple.”

Hey, Katie bar the door!

I’M LOVIN’ THIS. MORE. MORE.

Oregon has awakened at last.

You shouldn’t be surprised. In the hinterlands of Washington, Oregon, and here deep behind enemy lines in California there reside MILLIONS of people whose conservative bona dudes are as solid as anyone you’d care to mention. It’s just we’re vastly outnumbered by the drooling drones in Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angleles, etc etc

[Socon-Econ]

Trump needs to jump into this. As in now, while the issue is hot.

[goodnesswins]

You’d be surprised what’s in Most of Oregon...

[NoLibZone]

Oregon is not Portland.

Protesters are supporting Republicans in Oregon? Time to fight for our nation...
