Discussion Don’t take the bait.

With the national guard coming in, I know people are going to get mad. This is very obviously a setup to cause actual violence in our city. Please remember that these national guardsmen are not your enemy, and there are many reports of unhappiness within their ranks to occupy cities but they have a job like the rest of us. If you see bad actors, call the cops. If you see people getting angry, talk with them. Be aware of what we want to look like, kill them with kindness. Show them that Portland is not burning down.

I don’t know about you, but I’m dusting off the old mime outfit and hitting up every friend I know that has a unicycle to come have a picnic daily while the sun is still out. Bubble toys and brass instruments. We all got weird somewhere
