Has Oregon always been that way or they just getting the Californias' leftovers?

There are two Oregons, Wacko Portland, Eugene, and the public emp;oyes that live in Salem. The rest of the state is consevative but many of them are rinos. This group works for a living and pays taxes.

Oregon has always been a magnet for the counter culture and Portland and Eugene are enclaves of some rally radical people.

Luers has quite a few friends in Eugene in particular as this is a hot bed of tree sitters and fur and meat industry haters in particular.

I'm sure if I went to the cafe next to the activist office building down on Willamette St. I would see the usual shiftless, dirty and unemployed rabble all excited by this.

I am afraid if Luers is given another long sentence. Things could start burning in revenge just as things could start burning if they encourage it by freeing this perp.

Letters should be sent to the registerguard.com eugeneweekly.com sites to let the powers that be know we don't want Luers freed.
