Honestly, the media is way off about the Portland protests. Take it from people on the ground: the picture painted by the media is largely wrong and mostly inadequate.
- awerawerawrjhui 6y agoSo what's the accurate picture from people on the ground?
- landryraccoon 6y agoThis is only one data point but I was in Portland this week trying to get away from smoke and it was all peaceful. The protestors I saw looked like kids and older folks out in for a rally. Some were wearing bright vests for visibility, probably from cars. All in all it didn’t seem too wild to me and I’m sure I didn’t see all the protests, again this is just one guy walking down the street. I never felt unsafe for what it’s worth.
- Fellshard 6y agoAnd what happens once night falls?
- kombucha111 6y agoA small minority get violent and the cops prematurely declare a riot? Portland is not the war zone the media claims it is.
- chipsa 6y agoIs this before or after rioters set someone on fire with a molotov?
- kombucha111 6y agoLikely before?
- Fellshard 6y agoMaybe you should stop with the blatant disinformation campaign in this post. It's not helpful to people trying to understand the truth.
- kombucha111 6y agoI'm sorry where is the disinformation campaign?
- kombucha111 6y agoOne wonders where this disinformation campaign is.....
