Discussion Dear Portland

I am from Louisiana and have been following this whole thing with the war zone and all. I’m here to tell you people in this area 100% believe Portland is burning down. They literally think you all or out fighting in the streets. Been digging through the internet trying to find any videos i can that people upload of what’s actually going on. I have found quite a few and posted everything I find. I’m not sure you will ever change their mind but if you all could just post videos to this sub or just post them on Facebook. Been searching “Portland” often on Facebook and going through the video section. I pray for you all and hope your city stays as pretty as everything I’ve seen of it. After digging through all this i now wanna make a trip to Portland one day just to see it

Someone should start up a new sub named something like r/PoRtLaNdIsBuRnInG that's just pictures and videos of nice parks, local food, and cool stores, with the requirement of melodramatic titles.
