I grew up in Oregon. The Dalles was once attacked by that crazy Indian cult in the 80's. They poisoned the town to try and influence the election. The goal was to have their candidates take over the county leadership. After their commune failed, I'm pretty sure a lot of the hippies ended up in my school district and influenced the retards that ruined Portland for you. Oregon has been lost for a long time, don't feel like a quitter. You need to be safe and happy, and Portland isn't going to foster that at this time in history. Godspeed Portland 'pede
