JM,
Should the federal government be allowed to have federal courthouses in Portland?
If so, what should they do if they are attacked by rioters?

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak
I find it interesting that posters in this thread are in favor of the government forcing people to wear masks, and forcing people not to sing in church, but also are against the government protecting a courthouse from people trying to set it on fire.Robert wrote:This is the Coronavirus thread.

Absolutely. Protect the building. But these people are going 5-6 blocks away from the courthouse they are supposed to be protecting. They are snatching people in unmarked vans, blocks away from the courthouse.Josh wrote:JM,

I know a bunch of provocitors when I see it. I have seen it up close and personal. These are inciting more trouble than they solve.

Than you should know the opinions I express are the norm here, and not an outlier.Robert wrote:Hon, I was born in the inner city of Baltimore and lived in several large cities and worked downtown. I live in my rural bubble now because I left that mess behind.Judas Maccabeus wrote: Hon, I happen to live in America’s largest cities, the (former) home of Freddie Grey. We have frequent demonstrations. If we had those brownshirts here, we would have riots too.
Maybe you should leave your rural bubble.
J.M,
Your constant references to Nazis is ridiculous and I grow tired of it. I have lost a lot of respect for you because of it. I no longer an interested in hearing your opinions since they are so biased and distorted. I pray for those you care for. I hope they experience a better side than you show here. Goodbye.

For what it's worth, I find more rationality and less drama here than on Facebook...which has turned into a fever swamp of crazy these days.

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak
Your FB feed is mostly whatever your "friends" post. You must have a fever swamp of crazy friends. You can curate it by curating your friend list. You don't even have to 'unfriend' them. Just unfollow those friends who insist on cluttering up your feed with nonsense. That's what I do.Dan Z wrote:For what it's worth, I find more rationality and less drama here than on Facebook...which has turned into a fever swamp of crazy these days.
