divemaster5734 Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 Having spent two years in Portland on various projects,(a children's hospital, a veterans hospital, and several processor chip manufacturers), as well as visiting P.I.R. several weekends every year, it is obvious locals there love their Rose Parade. In a display of almost unimaginable ignorance , the city has capitulated to threats from democrats, who, in their own display of almost unimaginable hypocrisy, have decided republicans do not "deserve" their right to free speech. There are millions of people from all over the state that attend the parade, there are thousands of people that spend the entire year planning and building the floats they drive in the parade, and there are vendors have already spent thousands reserving booth space. The lack of any backbone in the city council is breathtaking.... DM Portland cancelled the 82nd Avenue of Roses Parade and Carnival after Antifa, a Communist group, threatened to physically attack the Multnomah County Republicans who were planning to march in the parade. Antifa said they would assemble 200 followers to carry out the threat. Instead of defending citizens’ right to hold a peaceful parade, the city council and mayor canceled the event. This sent a message to Antifa that it is OK to threaten violence if the threat comes from the left. [We can only wonder what the politicians would have done if the threats had come from the Republicans.] 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJinMontreal Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 Democrats have been pushing communist values for years ... imo - there's no difference!! Did you not notice some of those Mao outfits Hitlery was wearing during her failed campaign - I'm sure she was merely trying to appease her communist masters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a breakdown for you. No Babycake, it isn't me that's severely confused. I did not "imagine" the millions of innocent humans murdered by the Nazis for no other reason than they disagreed with their agenda. I did not "imagine" the millions of innocent humans murdered by the commies for no other reason than they disagreed with their agenda, I did not "imagine" the millions of innocent humans murdered by the socialists for no other reason than they disagreed with their agenda, Breakout all the twisted and bastardised dictionaries you want, spend hours and hours writing the long winded replies that lefties love, so by the time it is done you have twisted nearly every word in the English language to suit your own needs. Bottom line, I knew holocaust survivors, I saw the numbers tattooed on their forearms. I listened to their stories of the Nazis as they slowly went from limiting the Jews free speech, to taking their businesses, to putting them in camps, to murdering them. My grandparents watched as the Nazis looted their village, heard the women scream, saw the homes burning. Then, they watch as the socialists looted their village, heard the women scream, saw the homes burning, After the Russians "saved" Poland, there wasn't much left. They got on a boat and came here. Don't even try to feed me your twisted logic, you are the only one fooled by the demonstrations. If you cant see how destroying anyone's free speech is wrong on multiple levels than you are just as hopeless as those brainwashed zombie morons attacking innocent humans. I was young, grandpa died when I was 13, and his friends quit coming over, but I will never forget the stories, watching them trying to not cry, but then started to sob, shaking, sometimes moaning, ( didn't realize until years later it was from the intense pain of seeing their family brutalized). There are images burned into me that you would never accept. That is part of my passion, who I am, and why I will fight morons, dolts, and collectivists of all stripes. RINO's, Commies, Fascists, and all other who wish to destroy this country. You might want to take off those red glasses, your bias is showing. If you honestly think you and your Nazi ilk can take over America, then just sit back, you are going to see strong and stronger resistance to them, and, if the politicians continue to tie the police hands, those stinking demonstrators will learn what a Patriot is really all about. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatshername Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 These fascists are allowed to be violent on our streets and on our campuses... they threw shlt at people at Berkeley yesterday... their own shlt! ( http://www.fireandreamitchell.com/2017/04/27/like-primates-antifa-throwing-feces-in-berkeley/ ) Why is this being tolerated? If those with authority don't stop these Antifa aholes from violating our civil rights... we will take matters into our own hands.

jg1 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 I've seen the same type of thing happen at other times. At anti-illegal gatherings being shut down due the violent protesters, expected dusruption, and high cost of security. Rewarding the criminals and shutting out the peaceful. Mob mentality rules. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the definition s Read the "liberal" definition. Since when did the left become Christian? In fact, they cut the cross to become a plus symbol, and declare "universal positivism". Maybe because they are positive their hatred of Christianity, conservatives, patriots, borders, and good old fashioned work will win the hearts of the snowflakes who have discovered their PhD in porn won't actually get them a real freaking job. What is baffling is, how the left can do the exact same things Hitler did, but because they are only hating conservatives and CHristians, then they are OK to hate away. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
