    Hey. Desist from disseminating this disinformation from the
    dissembling semi-Fascist Faux News. There are no problems with
    anything the Dems might be unjustifiably perceived to be even
    marginally responsible for, but if there are, they're just transitory challenges that were inherited from Trump, and they will disappear
    with the passage of time at the end of the day going forward under the literally excellent leadership of the Brandon/Kakala administration.

    So well, like, pivot, reorient, and cool it, man, and stop, like,
    fomenting all this divisiveness.

    ROFLMAO DAMN! You are one seriously dumb shit. Crime is going up
    all over the nation, in cities and rural areas. Portland remains one of
    the safest big cities in the land. The violent crime rate is still below
    the national average. BUT, you are the dumb shit who really should be
    paying close attention to what's happening around you.

    Portland by the current numbers:

    "And Black teen and adult men continued to be disproportionately
    affected by nonfatal shootings and homicides, representing 47% of
    victims and suspects, while making up only 6% of the city’s population,
    the report said.

    That compares to white people, who represented 37% of victims and
    suspects, while making up 75% of the city’s population, according to the report."

    And you are the dumb shit of reading comprehension. I did not
    disagree with their information. I believe the numbers I posted on race
    are from that report. I added the information on Portland's violent
    crime rate for context. I'm still safer here than I would be in most
    major American cities. You are not. LOL

    I generally don't open the links you post, because it's usually information taken out of context, bullshit, and/or boring. If I open
    your post at all I usually just read the link to see what dumb shit
    you're yammering about today. If I was interested in what Fakes News had
    to say I'd watch Fakes News. I actually hadn't bothered to open that one
    until you challenged my post. I hadn't been too worried about it because
    try to make sure my information is accurate. I am a long long way from
    100%, but next to you I'm a damn genius.

    time I deviated was when he was posting bullshit on technical threads.
    Just because he didn't know anything about the subject that didn't stop
    him from posting. I usually stopped reading whole threads when he was a
    major participant. LZ wasn't the best, but he was one of the most
    annoying trolls I've encountered. None of ya'll are even close to LZ's

    ignoring them. I don't do phony Will Sill style filtering. I'm not
    ashamed to admit that I completely ignored LZ for many years. The only
    time I deviated was when he was posting bullshit on technical threads.
    Just because he didn't know anything about the subject that didn't stop
    him from posting. I usually stopped reading whole threads when he was a major participant. LZ wasn't the best, but he was one of the most
    annoying trolls I've encountered. None of ya'll are even close to LZ's league.

    It really doesn't take much to get a compulsive writer started.
    You boys are flattering yourselves.

    Lol. I quit responding to and seldom read LZ's posts a number of years before his death, as well. But somewhere near the end I couldn't help myself when LZ took and stoutly maintained a position that held Nebraska was "merging" with South Dakota. It's
    far enough in the of the past that I don't remember the particulars but it had to do with an argument over the exact position of the borderline between the states. I know I joined in the thread and posted a picture from Google maps of sign that appeared
    to blow his argument out of the water. But LZ was never one to be deterred by facts, especially offered by those with only one DD214. I'm pretty sure the battle dragged on until all the combatants (save LZ) grew bored and moved on. As was often the case,
    LZ was seldom right, but quite tenacious.

    Enjoy the day,

          LOL you too? I thought it was only jive ass and honk who
    thought it was a big deal when someone responded to one of their
    posts. If I find someone seriously annoying I don't have any problem
    completely ignoring them.

    Well, thanks. I guess I'm not seriously annoying.

    You need to work on that. Anything that makes sense is annoying to CC&P
    (aka, Señor Smoke and Mirrors). It’s not hard at all.

    I'm trying for the middle ground compromise - moderately annoying. At
    the end of the day going forward, I think that "not seriously
    annoying" is an efficacious step toward that self-imposed goal.

    I don't do phony Will Sill style filtering.

    lol, Yep. He was the sort of idjit who figured, "He who posts last
    wins." By his standards I don't think I ever saw him lose an argument.
