California is coming
I don’t mean the residents the policies.
Several years ago my Father had to lay off 16 men when the State adopted the Spotted owl protection act It made him physically ill
Now the schools in Coos bay lack the funding with the loss of the timber industry did not hurt the big guys a bit they did not rely on BLM contracts,
California is marching North
Check out Portland it’s becoming the unwashed armpit of Oregon
Jails releasing criminals due to ACLU lack of space lawsuits.
California is coming
Laws considered to take away my personal protection at 76 and Dad at 91 all the while releasing criminals into the general public Thanks Eugene.
California is coming.
So who you going to vote for another BROWN.

To all Californians. You people created the mess that your state has become. Then you start moving in herds to my state and immediately commence to changing into the very thing you moved from! You liberals are all alike, never accept responsibility for your failed policies. Now your ruining my home too. Get out, go back, stay away.

We are responsible for our actions. Thrift, integrity, are personal decisions.. if one wants to lie, cheat, not my problem. Move forward.

Well I ‘flocked’ to central Oregon and I don’t smoke weed. I’m too young to remember the 60’s, I own a business and my political fetishes tend to err toward what passes for ‘ conservative’ here in the USSA.

Ulysses is right: decorum, please, gentlemen…..

California’s weed-smoking Marxist refugees from the 60s are indeed flocking to Oregon. And when they’re done with Oregon, it’ll be a union-controlled, highest(non-returnable)-taxing, business-squashing, liberty and job-stealing liberal utopia just like California.

Hola amigos,

doesn’t “It’s got to be reined in toward fair and balanced!” sound a lot like censorship?

If your point of view is so fragile and dependent on authoritarian control then does it have any real validity?

The richness and vitality of the Agora is in direct proportion to the diversity of opinion expressed there, even the lunatic in the orange fright wig, who, like Isaiah, just might be trying to tell you something you really need to know.

Three thousand years later we still read and study the words of Socrates. The tyrant who silenced him left us nothing, except an abject lesson in the futility of grasping for control over peoples’ words and thoughts.

And P.S.: If you want to savor some real hate-filled vitriol, bile and spite emanating from your side of the field, go check out the comments on Politico. Yikes!!

Day of reckoning is wishful thinking trumped up by medieval prognosticators the proletariat finally burned at the stake for fomenting untruths for personal gain.

The state is booming. We only have too many low skill workers unable to be productive in the information age. Think on it. How many people do you know are obsolete like a 58 Plymouth.
