Nowhere near Portland. In the hills and backwoods. Even the most conservative Oregonians are not going to stand for blatant constitutional trampeling.

We Oregonians ain't gonna fuck around. Bring fascist bullshit here and be prepared for the repercussions.

Defund fascism!!!!

I guess because we are preoccupied with asking why and complaining on the internet instead of actually physically removing them from our government, which is the only solution to the problem you are asking about.

Never was to be truthful. The electoral college is inherently not a democratic system. People in Wyoming have the voting power of 3.8 people in California. That is not democracy.

Have to organize and do it underground. It's not happening......we have become complacent and too cowardly.
August 25, 2025 at 12:31 AM
Your spot on, but there is no organization. It's going to take mass organization and so far no one is participating in that. I have tried to set up meetings but people are too scared to attend.

Donald Trump has declared war against America and Americans. It's that plain. It's that simple. The only thing left to consider is how we fight back.
August 25, 2025 at 12:26 AM
Yep, and that's why they are turning to authoritarian rule in hopes it can stem the tide.....but it can't. We are witnessing the death rattle of white supremacy and it's time to deal it a fatal blow and put it out of its misery. Full disclaimer...I am white folk

History will remember her as a hero.

100%
They wouldn't have it in Russia or China........so why would they have it here at this point.
August 23, 2025 at 3:02 AM
And when democrats take over congress and the presidency we need to add more judges to the supreme court, do away with the electoral college and basically try to have a real democracy for once.

Everyone needs to start packing serious heat at all times now. Protect yourselves out there in the streets.

Jesus would NOT approve.

If you all can't see that war has been declared against you......then I am not sure what more it will take to realize it.

Yeah, it's hard to say how we would fair after a winter there. Without ever living or even visiting it's easy to just listen to the stereotypes, but perhaps it's less dark and rainy than we have been told. Plus, like you said there is always going south to Italy, Greece or Portugal.

I wasn't sure of that actually, unless you were referring to South Africa. I know most countries around the world speak some english but I guess I assumed the schools were mostly in their native tongue. A lot of it is we know people in those 3 and so we can get more detailed info on the schools.

Yep. The age was a major issue in Australia. They have a 45 year old cut off for the skilled worker in demand Visa. There are some exceptions but it's just more hoops to jump through with limited chance for success. I was quite surprised how difficult it was considering the amount of funding I have.
May 15, 2025 at 7:24 PM
Yeah, that is a fair point there. Good god, I am so sorry to hear you are right in the thick of it. I live in rural Oregon and it hasn't come here yet. Not tons of immigrants here, but definitely some. I agree we need a ban together. Like I said.....name a time and place to coordinate and I am there

The issue was all the people who sat on the sidelines because of Kamala. A black woman for president from San Francisco was a real tough sell....especially with no primary opportunities to vote. America may be more sexist than racist I have come to believe, but I think it's a bit of both.
May 15, 2025 at 7:17 PM
My kids are in high school. It's impractical to do that to them right now and they would be really ornery about it. I didn't want to destabilize them to that extent. Learning another language would be awesome and good for them, but I had to consider what we have already gone through since 1/20/25.
May 15, 2025 at 7:15 PM
No issue with language in Ireland. In fact I have no trouble with the Irish accent whatsoever. Brit's I can struggle to understand at times. Which I have heard is usually the opposite for Americans. Guess it's my Irish heritage. It's the weather my family wasn't into. Too dark, too wet, too long.
May 15, 2025 at 7:10 PM
Exactly. The point was the overall sentiment. Which is tough luck, you guys in the US should have done more to prevent this. I gotta admit that I agree we should have, but hundreds of millions of us are collateral damage now. We can't seem to fix the stupid people that surround us.
May 15, 2025 at 7:08 PM
Correct, it was just a guy I might down there. He actually was a pretty nice guy and was just messing with me in a sense, but overall his sentiment was serious because Australians are freaking out about the cost of their housing and food etc. I get it....but there sure are a lot of Aussies in the US

Sometimes you just have to ask yourself if your being reasonable. This would be that time for you.
