I've known him pretty well for about 15 years back when he was an AUSA and ran a few of my cases. Fed Head breakfasts with him now. He feels more lib moderate than anything... but a real justice guy. Holdover Obama appointment.... good guy. Just call it out what it is......that is all we ask. People aren't stupid. Kudos to this guy. Normal, regular tax paying American citizens know the difference between a peaceful protest and criminal rioting. Despite how CNN or the DNC try to portray it.......its maddening.

Baker Boy 1,485 Posted August 7, 2020 Portland riots rage despite withdrawal of Federal Troops! Portland mayor condemns rioters for 'attempting to commit murder' Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler Thursday evening condemned the actions of rioters who attempted to set fire to a police precinct and blocked the exits while officers were inside. When you commit arson with an accelerant in an attempt to burn down a building that is occupied by people who you have intentionally trapped inside, you are not demonstrating, you are attempting to commit murder," Wheeler said in a news conference with Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell. Don’t think for a moment that you are if you are participating in this activity, you are not being a prop for the reelection campaign of Donald Trump — because you absolutely are," he said. "You are creating the B-roll film that will be used in ads nationally to help Donald Trump during this campaign. If you don’t want to be part of that, then don’t show up.” https://www.foxnews.com/us/portland-mayor-condemns-rioters-for-attempting-to-commit-murder How long until he accuses Trump of organizing the riots?

DonS 3,067 Posted August 7, 2020 @mmmmm...beer wife and I were in PDX area yesterday on way back from Oregon Coast. We met up with my wife's brother and sister for lunch near Milwaukie neighborhood in SE Portland. Over the years we've driven down Powell Blvd many times to head to 205 for the drive back to Seattle. HOLY SH1T it was like a non-stop tent city with the homeless junkies taking over every one of the small parking lots that line the street. Rag tag tents and piles and piles of garbage strewn everywhere. Parts of Powell always seemed a bit rough (a few strip clubs, goodwill, etc) but I've never seen it like this. Focking crazy. I expect that sh1t downtown so it was surprising to see it in full force out there towards 205. For the rest of the GC I'm referring to an area well outside of downtown. Older neighborhoods, but not quite suburbs. It's odd how this stuff gets out of hand once "urban camping" is given the green light. But hey, it makes the local politicians feel all warm and fuzzy inside since it doesn't affect them personally. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everything they come up with is the exact opposite of what should be done. Complete with brainwashed lemmings who agree with their every move. If AOC or any of their other retarded losers at the top said that Sh1t tastes good and eating your own sh1t is recycling and saving the planet, they would all do it, no questions asked. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the height of selfishness. "There are just some people on this planet who are bent on criminal destruction," the mayor continued. "There are just some people who want to watch the world burn."

Well, let's see how long it lasts. He talked tough about the situation where the thugs created an autonomous zone at a house where people were being evicted, and a couple days later he recanted and apologized to them. He let them run his cops off when they came to evict the people too. So, we'll see if he really means it THIS time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
