War Ravaged Portland
« on: September 27, 2025, 01:49:13 PM »
Trump claimed on social media that Portland was "war ravaged" which is why he is sending troops here "authoring full force." Trump also said the decision is necessary to protect U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, which he described as “under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists.”

I call bullshit!

Yesterday, I went to the audiologist to pick up a hearing device. They are located at 5200 S Macadam Ave STE 200, Portland, OR 97239 which is 3 minutes and a just a couple of blocks away from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, located at 4310 S Macadam Ave, Portland, OR 97239. I saw no evidence of any type of disturbance, much less something appearing to be war ravaged. So, I wondered what happened at ICE between 2:00 pm on 9/26/2025 and today that would cause it to be war ravaged. Below is a photo taken today of the U.S. Customs Enforcement facilities. Where are all these domestic terrorists? Did they go home already?

Did you wear your Antifa uniform on this trip?

I did wear Antifa garb, thinking I would just blend in with the crowd in my "Black bloc" attire. But unfortunately, there was only one loan preoccupied person standing out front of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building to notice what I was wearing and he apparently did not give a rip.

When I drove for 3 minutes to the audiologist, she asked why I was so weirdly dressed and why I was not wearing one of my usual very conservative LL Bean plaid shirts with khakis. To be honest, I was at a loss as to what to say to her. Apparently, she had not noticed anyone or anything unusual, like a bunch of "domestic terrorists" or that Trump identified this area being part of “war ravaged Portland".

No doubt she will take notice when the troops show up because this is when things will start getting harrier. Fortunately for her, she is not Latina, does not speak Spanish or otherwise resemble an illegal alien in anyway. Like I normally do she also dresses very conservatively, at least when she is at work.

To be honest, I found this to  be a rather awkward situation, so it took off my black Antifa mask. I thought about also stripping off all the Antifa costume down to my make America great again bodybuilder style bikini which I was wearing under the Antifa disguise, but I did not want the other folks waiting to have their hearing evaluated to be shocked or turned on by my magnificently muscled body -- see below.

You are so right! Like Dorothy said whilst clicking the heals of her red shoes together three times, “there is no place like home, there is no place like home.”
Unfortunately, West Linn city ordinances limit front yard fencing to a maximum height of 3 feet. But my backyard feels more like a safe haven because it has a city approved 6-foot fence enclosing it.
 
The house next door to me is up for sale. I sure hope a nice lily white upper middle-class family moves in, installs appropriately sized  perimeter fencing, and they keep their lawn properly watered and mowed, preferably by legal U.S. citizen Latino, or Asian gardeners. For some reason, Black folks are not interested in working as gardeners or housekeepers these days. Perhaps they are too busy selling subscriptions to magazines door to door, which will probably never be delivered.

And then there are the sad faced large East Indian families who are day-visiting from their homeless camps located outside our nice little tight knit community, will continue to keep to their respective corners and islands in the Safeway parking lot, while holding up signs asking for donations for this, that and other things.

Because there are currently no riots or violent protests going on in Portland, OR. Just as there were no riots or protests going on yesterday when Trump announced he was sending in the troops and called Portland 'war ravaged.' Portland is not war ravaged as is evidenced by the photos and videos people have taken yesterday and today. How does one post current pictures of something that is not happening?

"According to news reports from Sunday, September 28, 2025, minor clashes occurred between protesters and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents outside the ICE facility in south Portland. These isolated incidents do not represent widespread violent protest across the city, though state and city officials have expressed concern that the recent federal deployment could provoke unrest.
Details regarding protests on September 28, 2025:"

If your leader looks like the person on the left of the pic, you're fucked.

It's an odd thing for me to say, but the patterns have been undeniable.

No. I am saying Portland is not "war ravaged" as Trump claims it currently is. As I expected there would be, last Sunday night there was a protest in Portland against Trump sending 200 unneeded National Guard troops to Portland for 60 days. https://www.kptv.com/video/2025/09/29/ice-supporters-protesters-face-off-portland-ice-building-2-arrests-pt-1

Portland is a sanctuary city, and Oregon is a sanctuary state. It is understandable that many folks disagree with ICE ramping up arrests and detainments of suspected illegal aliens and some of them are protesting. Protests are legal under the First Amendment's guarantee of freedom of assembly and speech. In Portland, a permit for protests that stay on sidewalks and don't obstruct traffic or pedestrian movement. is not required or needed.

Coach knowingly posted outdated videos, hoping to prove his point. Had he waited, he could have posted videos of Sunday night's protest.


In response to Trump announcing on social media that he is sending 200 National Guard troops to "war ravaged" Portland, several hundred folks protested last night. He is creating the problem not solving it.

Oregon filed a lawsuit over deployment of the National Guard to Portland.

Ok.  Thanks for clarifying.  I haven't been tracking the current condition, but I know it absolutely was "war ravaged" several years ago, when those domestic terrorists attacked a federal courthouse for like two months straight.

I guess that would depend on your definition of "minor clashes" with federal agents.
