Antifa attacks man in his truck smashing it with rocks and pepper spraying him.

He draws his gun to protect himself and property.

He is arrested.
Just to clarify, the police arrested him BUT he has not yet been charged with any crimes and the investigation is on-going, according to the written article. from the video, I saw him do two things wrong (well, not the way I would have done them anyway). First is he was carrying without a round in the chamber. He had to jack the slide when he drew the gun. If the attackers had wanted to jump him then, they would have been able to take him down and do whatever they wanted while he was trying to get the weapon ready (which was not practiced well enough at all). My advice is to never carry on an empty chamber, but it did work for him at least. The second thing I think I would have done that he did not is to start shooting at the ones who sprayed him or were armed with clubs (especially the battering ram used on his truck window). I cannot fault him for not shooting, but my training is that if someone uses pepper spray or a taser on me, they are trying to incapacitate me to take my weapon and kill me.

I do not fault the police for taking him into custody as the only one with a gun out, especially if they did not see him get sprayed. And I will only fault them if he does end up being charged, though that is as much as case of bad laws as bad officers.

Oregon's 'Menstrual Dignity Act' requires schools to place feminine products in boys' bathrooms

https://www.foxnews.com/media/oregons-m ... -bathrooms

Menstrual dignity Act. Everyone worldwide must laugh at us.

Sounds like we need a new amendment to the constitution that shouldn’t be required at all.

The very weird point in this article, that shows the stupidity of the whole concept, is that the feminine products are required in classrooms from kindergarten through 12th grade. Even if we agreed that this was right for transgender students, I am forced to ask how many kindergarten students need those products? How many first graders, etc.? Do they even understand what puberty is and when it occurs?

Discussions about the rest room needs of transsexuals just enable their mental issues.

Here's where we need to follow the real science:

Determination of XX or XY chromosomes happens when life begins at the moment of conception and cannot be changed at any time throughout life, regardless of how passionately someone believes otherwise.

There are no newly discovered transsexuals - only cross dressers, which have always been among us. The logical way forward should allow them to dress however they want while using the facilities reserved for their biological sex.

I can only give you the title to the story.

Forum rules prohibit me from giving you the direct link which shows the pornography that is permitted in this school district library.

The book in question has cartoons which shows sex acts complete with things shown that Japanese cartoons always show blurred.

"District votes to keep pornographic book available for children"

Caution if cartoon drawings can offend you don't search for this.

Oregon road rage. He got some wiper fluid on a passing BMW as he hit auto windshield wash on his car.

Never a good idea to stop and get out of the car.

All Portland Walmart stores to permanently close in late March
https://www.kptv.com/2023/02/23/2-portl ... ose-march/
The last two Walmart stores within Portland’s city limits will close in late March, the company announced.

The locations, at 1123 North Hayden Meadows Drive and at 4200 Southeast 82nd Avenue at the Eastport Plaza, will both close on Friday, March 24. Walmart says they are closing the stores because they were not meeting financial expectations.
There will still be over a dozen Walmart stores in the metro area, outside of Portland’s city limit.
