I LIVE in Portland so yeah, I've seen it and have talked about it in detail on VCT. But here's the deal: most of the damage to Portland was not caused by blacks, it was caused by antifa, and they're mostly deluded white liberals and quasi-homeless idiots without a hope of success in life. BLM has attempted to disassociate themselves from antifa. The damage while noticeable and inexcusable is not existential; a few sections of downtown have been affected; most of Stumptown is untouched, although our spirits have been sullied by the rampant stupidity of antifa and the limp-wristed response by city government. And the effects are not like what you saw in Ferguson: buildings aren't burned to the ground; no, there was some arson but scorching only. What we have is an area of plywood covered windows and lots of graffiti: very unsightly but nothing like Newark or Watts in the sixties. Keep Portland weird, they say. |

Downtown Detroit is really nice. Three casinos, Ford Field, Little Caesars arena. Very gentrified. It’s the outskirts you have to worry about. Never been to Lansing. Can’t imagine a reason why I’d go there. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

I honestly had a thought that this thread being bumped up 2 years later might be because Derek Chauvin DIED in Prison, like a Family Member of George Floyd ended up in the same Prison cell with him and murdered him or he hung himself in prison like many Prisoners have done. But it's a much lighter reason why this thread was bumped two years later. You're right, Derek Chauvin is an idiot for doing Tax Fraud! Alec Baldwin's gun should have been CGI. Would have prevented the tragedy. Facts. |
