    Portland explodes in violence again over an eviction

    Just a thought!..if the protesters are that angered..why don't they just take up a collection and pay off the mortgage for them used to pay for son who was sentenced to two five year terms..?

    Protesters outraged with at least a dozen arrests at a home where a family was removed in September hurled rocks at officers, sprayed a fire extinguisher at them and damaged police vehicles on Tuesday.

    Protesters who have camped for months to prevent a black and indigenous family from being forced to leave their longtime North Mississippi Avenue home took the property back Tuesday

    Portland explodes in violence again as hundreds of protesters attempt to set up an autonomous zone and reclaim home that was sold by black family to pay legal fees when son was arrested and sentenced to two five year terms..

    Police arrested at least a dozen people outside the house on Tuesday
    The number of protesters swelled to more than 200 by nightfall

    Life at the bottom is rough.

    For some, life a couple rungs up from the bottom, though not as rough, is scarier. Because it *can* get worse.

          Good reason not to embark on a life of crime.
