Some friends of mine who live in the towns around portland. Are being told by local media or maybe main stream media that current riots in and around town are by Trump supporters. I think i just saw some news that the mayor was punched by an ANTIFA member.
I knew left leaning people in other states outside of oregon and washington state were drinking the MSM kool-aid. But Portland locals too? How can they not see what’s actually going on daily?
Her and her husband said to me “we don’t go downtown, because of the trump rioters.”
I am just in awe.
They Live in Tigard?
Telling me Trump supporters were trying to raid their buildings? I was like you are kidding me right?
They use Jan 6th as confirmation. I just shake my head.
Wow haha that's ridiculous! I know more people out towards Mt. Hood and southern Oregon. Most people out that are way are really conservative and see antifa for what it is.
I told my mom there was large protests at Salem a while back and she was like "well not surprising, were they for Trump or is it BLM/antifa".
Another anectode, my mother-in-law was in Portland during the summer for work. She was driving home one night and came head-on into a large "BLM" cprotest blocking the street she said "it was a huge crowd of scary antifa-like people, I was terrified they were going to attack me. I hate Portland now and I used to love it".
It's funny (sad really) with crazy protests for months I think locals are somewhat numb to it all.
Always contemplated moving to Aurora, loved the goonies movies.
Oregon is not on my radar, as a potential forever home.
