Too bad the Portland cops don’t have the mettle of the 1968 Chicago cops.
;-) I was a little busy during that time frame but seem to recall that the ‘mare’ was a dem. It was one of those “You don’t come to MY town and start crap no matter who you are!” kind of things. But, I did see some meme somewhere this morning where the thin blue line was being pulled back to reveal a swastika. Yup. Portlandia cops are now Trump supporters I guess.
“Da Mare” of Chicago was indeed a Dem: the “Honorable” Richard M. Daley, father of the mayor before Rahm Emmanuel.
Portland hasn’t had a decent mayor since Tom Potter, who had previously served as the Chief of the Portland Police Bureau.
Oops - I take that back. Looked up his Wikipedia profile, didn’t realize that he was such a squishy lib too.
