More good reasons to be in Portland

Videos from Portland showed a crowd of demonstrators violently shut down an event where Christians gathered to pray on the waterfront – before another clash Saturday afternoon involved Antifascists and alleged Proud Boys members throwing projectiles at each other on a city street.

Police officers did not intervene in either confrontation – besides a squad car sounding its siren just feet away.

As a native, the dip****tery I hear from people who have never set foot in Portland makes my blood boil.

Are the politics and voters wacky? Oh yes. There are some big issues that need fixing.

But, it is still a very nice place.

Going to my HS reunion in 10 minutes. In the middle of the poor part of town. Should be nice. Seriously.

Hate to disagree with you Tabs, but the Proud Boys aren't just white.

But they don't like that people are showing how the city's policies have made the place so nasty.
I post this not to condemn Portland but to warn people in the rest of this country that if you play silly games you will win silly prizes.

It's strange how being against Antifa and their unabashedly violent ways is somehow political.

That would be a policy change. Funny that you are getting political here

Portland State University professor Peter Boghossian has resigned in an open letter in which he accuses the administration of fostering an environment hostile to intellectual inquiry and dissent.

Boghossian, a philosophy professor and well-known critic of "woke" ideologies, said Wednesday that the university had created a "Social Justice factory" where students were taught "to mimic the moral certainty of ideologues."

"I never once believed — nor do I now — that the purpose of instruction was to lead my students to a particular conclusion," Boghossian wrote to Provost Susan
Jeffords.
