Nothing the lunatics, in charge of the PC state of Oregon, do really surprises me any more.
The state has been on a downward path to PC hell for about 2 decades now.
I think God that we had enough sense to realize how PC the the state had become in 1996 when I took early retirement. We had thought about moving to Brookings at that time or maybe Medford. Those cities/counties are basically conservative, but the lunatics lefties in Portland and Salem control the state.
Our older son advised us to subscribe to the Oregonian for a year before we decided to move. It took about 2 months of reading Pravda West to realize that they and the rest of the Oregon MSM were leading Oregon straight to PC Hell!
Our recovering liberal son will be leaving Portland sometime next month. He realizes that it is basically impossible for any business to survive in Portland unless they become a left wing organization and can suck off the tax teats to stay afloat.
We need to establish the State of Jefferson comprised of Southern Oregon and Northern Califonia north of the Bay Area and Sacremento. It would be a very conservative state, full of good people and workers in one of the most beautiful areas of the world. Without the lunatic control from Portland and Sacramento, the new state of Jefferson would thrive.
I'm glad to hear your son is getting the heck outta here.
I wish I could go with him.
However, the illegal issue will be big in the Gov.'s race.
There's talk that the current 'Rat occupying that office is in trouble.
