[QUOTE="Dale00, post: 3162728, member: 688"] It is a situation that bears watching. Portland has right wing loons and left wing loons that seem to enjoy fighting each other. There is a "danger" in relying too much on the magnifying lens of news media coverage to form our view of the situation. As far as I know this is not occurring in say...Austin. If it does then I'll ramp up my concern a notch or two. Otherwise I try to stay out of the internet drama web. Probably the best thing any of us can do is try to promote good relations with neighbors and civil discourse with those who hold opposing views.....so yes, HRC's rant, Holden's rant etc. and those who support such vile rhetoric are major embarrassments. ....ok so [URL='https://www.foxnews.com/us/leftist-mob-rip-up-signs-hurl-expletives-at-conservative-students-supporting-kavanaugh?intcmp=ob_article_footer_text&intcmp=obnetwork']it is happening in Austin[/URL] if the media coverage is accurate and representative. Hopefully just in reaction to the SCOTUS appointment and it will die down.....We need to see laws enforced and justice upheld for assault cases. IF that's not happening we have a systemic problem.
