A Portland bookstore announced on Monday that it will not sell journalist Andy Ngo's new book on its shelves after the local retail chain faced pressure by leftist protests.

Powell's Books had been facing backlash ahead of the February release of "Unmasked: Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy," causing its flagship store to close early on Monday as a "safety precaution," according to the local TV affiliate KOIN.

I have no reason to go to Portland, much less visit Powell’s Books. The inmates are running Portland...into the ground.

Don’t ever click on Amazon again. They are the enemy! Certainly do not buy anything from them again.

So they choose to bow to the criminal mod rather than the victim. Typical commies!
********************

I will never, ever buy another book from Powell’s unless they change and sell Ngo’s “Unmasked” period!!

I will tell my family and they won’t either. I will tell my friends and they won’t either. If enough of us do this,Powell will either sell it or go under.

You DO NOT stop selling a book for political reasons.@@@

So, in the wake of nationwide condemnation and recriminations over a riot, they are banning a book that condemns rioting because a group of rioters protested its sale. That’s the insane world we live in.

Barnes and Noble have 90+% of their political donations to democrats. The money you spend there, some of it, goes to the left and the rest probably goes to RINOs.
