I live in Portland and I even voted for the a$$hole mayor. But we didn’t have much of a choice - his opponent was an admitted communist. Now THAT was a true $hit sandwich!

We’d move out of this town if there was someplace to go that wasn’t either just as bad (or worse) or had some semblance of a job. I was born here 87 years ago and have watched a beautiful city slide closer to the edge every day since. If you have a reasonable suggestion I’d like to hear it. BTW, most of us have already called ourselves all the names you have. That didn’t do any good either...

Time to begin building a Mad Max vehicle to go grocery shopping/looting.

Central and northern NH are still safe. Everybody’s armed, (no ccw needed) ppen carry permitted. No sales or income tax. Law enforcement who don’t view the citizenry as a revenue source.

AntiFa scumbags will someday go someplace where ordinary people will not take their guff.

“There’s no BLM in Portland. That town is nearly all White.”

I guess you’ve never been to northeast Portland.

“NE Portland has the highest concentration of African Americans at 30%.”

You do know this is Portland, OR and not Portland, ME, I hope.

I was born here 87 years ago and have watched a beautiful city slide closer to the edge every day since.

Wow! That's amazing, sir! I am sure it is beautiful where you live. I can see from your point of view. As long as you're comfortable where you're at, no reason for you to move. Just watch Gran Torino with Clint Eastwood. Great movie. You'll need to watch it, if you haven't seen it already.

t’s not great here anymore but there’s lots of places that ae worse. The ‘burnt out’ area is downtown and it’s a mess. But since most of the business has moved out (and taken the jobs with them) we’re kinda marooned here.

he idea of just packing up and resettling in Texas or Wyoming seems like the answer to our troubles. Bad as it is herem we’re still “native” and in any of those “safe” places we’d be the refugees from Oregon. There was a time when people flocked here to enjoy the beauty and clean water and air. We still have Californians doing that but they bring money with which to buy land and build their “McMansions,” driving prices (and taxes) up on our land. As you might expect, they’re not welcomed with open arms anymore.

Besides, I sat here earlier, listening to the sirens, the fireworks and the occasional gunshot. I set up a watch position at a decent location and waited for my wife to get home, That shotgun let me know just how foolish I was to try to play games I hadn’t played in 55 years.

Moving across the country would be more of the same. I’m stuck here.

The state will go after anyone fighting them. They are the protected Democrat militia. Also, the mass resignation of the police rapid response team is less than it first seemed. This was an all volunteer unit of police from other units. They will continue in their regular jobs so no one really resigned.

The Rapid Response team is made up of volunteers from the Portland Police Dept, for riot control.

The officers are no longer volunteering to man the RR team. They have not resigned from the Portland Police Dept. They are still cops with Portland PD. The reason the officers “resigned” from the RR team is because one of them is getting charged for excessive force.

Nothing will change except there won’t be a named team to control riots. Portland PD will just pick officers to work riots, instead of having a team of volunteers.

Detailed story linked below.

Every so often there is a news story where a family moved far away to get out of a bad city. Then they get hit by a bus or something. Just get out of Portland, you don’t have to go cross country.

Send the social workers.

Nope, it's a big victory for Antifa and BLM. It's all part of their long-term strategy. When local policing fails and citizens demand protection, cries will be heard to send federales to do the policing. Say welcome to the American KGB and goodbye to freedom.

Sure, you can run from evil but the evil will follow you. It always does and it always will-- until someone (not YOU of course) kills it. That's why we're all sitting in front of a computer, isn't it? Aren't we looking for that "someone?"
