I'm sure she's talking about you and nobody is personally attacking you. We're referencing your laughable defense of your failed city's response to/endorsement of the riots and destruction of Portland.

Everyone can read your comments on the threads about Portland. Aussie's characterization of your comments is 100% accurate.

Let's not give Kate Brown any credit whatsoever. She supported the riots in June/July because she is a dutiful Democrat hack and felt that letting the riots go on until the election would be helpful to her and her political party.

That was unfortunate for the actual people that had to live through her reign of terror, but Kate Brown and liberals don't really care about the people they rule over. They care about power. Now that there is no use for rioting in Portland, Kate Brown has decided she doesn't need riots anymore.

?? do you mean in the Dalles?

Oregon also has a big problem with drugs and homelessness. As is anywhere, some of these people made and make bad choices or have found their "comfort zone" and escape mechanisms.

She is a complete failure and didn't provide leadership in Oregon, but I am glad she is finally calling the rioters out.

No **** Sherlock. That's what everyone with an IQ over 70 has known for 6 months. This crap isn't about "racial justice" or any such BS. It's just a bunch of mindless savages looking for some pathetic excuse to loot, to burn and to riot. Brown, the Portland Mayor and DA, and the Democratic party own this. But it's just "an idea" doing the rioting and burning, according to the idiot likely to be in the Oval Office in 2 months.



This from the genius that attacked Trump for using federal officers to help restrain the violence, and who refused to allow OSP to function as federal LE (deputized) and charge them with federal crimes. Must be starting to feel some heat from the poor suckers that put her in office.
Most sane people knew that about the rioters in all the cities for months now.

Funny how now when there is no political advantage to score, these are now bad people that need to be stopped. Whichever way the leftist wind blows......

Don't say that. There's good people that live in these states. Their votes are just nullified by the large urban cesspools in each state.
