Odd road rage in Portland, OR, no one hurt, drugs?

WTF? This guy lost it, and has plead "not guilty" despite a pretty damning dashcam video. (yep, his dash cam is going to bury him.

He looks like a prick. Is a prick.

If you live here, you know when there are parades and events, and the streets will be closed.

“Following his arrest, it came out that Mecham is a registered sex offender and had a previous conviction for driving on a suspended license. Back in 1999, he was convicted of attempted first-degree rape and first-degree sodomy. Because he was 15 at the time of the crime, he only served three years in prison. Following his release, he routinely violated the terms of his probation and was sent back to jail for an additional three years and two months. His second conviction came in 2016 when he was sentenced to two years and four months in prison for sexually abusing an underage boy, as well as giving him weed and alcohol.”

It was a cry for help. Why else would he record himself going off like that?
"I'm a sex offender, a dickhead, a bad driver, and an all around loser with a crap haircut. I need help to become a normal human being - and a new orange outfit for Halloween. "

Some people simply don't belong in civilized society.

I think crazy and dickhead sort of cover it.

While we do have our fair share of wingnuts, Portland is a much safer place than many.

There are certainly locations that you shouldn't go to, just like anywhere. As well as random nutjobs.

I was trying to give him the benefit of a doubt. Drugs would be an excuse for an otherwise OK person to be that big a dickhead. If no drugs were involved, then that guy needs to be on drugs that zombify him.
