I was at the UW protest against Milo with Antifa, and know the guy who got shot through a friend. He's a member of the IWW. The rear end in a top hat who shot him claims "self-defense", but I'm telling you, he totally could have walked away if he really wanted to. Guns aren't even allowed on campus anyways, so he shouldn't have been packing if he was going to the Milo event. Anyway, the guy who got shot is a good dude and there's a medical fund for him

Came here to post this; it turns out he's a relative of mine, so thanks for doing the needful. Early signs show he's going to be ok, but I don't have all the details and am still worried. Given the nature of the shitbag he was protesting they're trying to keep a lid on things but help if you can, even if "just" by doing more to fight this poo poo. Pretty sure I saw a goon name or two in the donation feed, so serious thanks all 'round.

The Puppy Bowl posted:Just arrived in Portland from the south earlier this year and it's certainly been eventful. A very small thing but I work for the city and during the recent inclement weather all city employees received an email about volunteering for shifts at the Portland Building since it was being opened up as a temporary homeless shelter. I thought this was really cool up until I saw how incredibly few shelters actually exist in this town. No loving duh there is a homeless problem, they have no where to go but the street. Yeah, it is the city's greatest embarrassment and the lack of concern by the city hall has always been on the more bizarre side of inhumane. There is no choice to build more shelters (and more than a few) and every attempt has seemingly failed in any serious capacity (compared to short term fixes like housing people in basements for a while then kicking them out). I live abroad at the moment, and when I told some of my friends that yeah people fairly regularly freeze to death in Portland during the winter because there is no where to go they thought I was joking.

Seattle Times has named the victim, but not the shooter, out of their respect for fascism. Remarkably, they also printed this:quote:His Seattle attorney, Sarah Lippek, confirmed his identity, although she said Dukes was concerned about his name being made public “as the risk of harassment and threats is very real, and my client needs time to rest and recover from his injuries.”

The thing that really makes me mad is that the president of UW has made statements after the shooting that blame both sides equally, as though the Antifa are just as much to blame that they got shot as the reactionary who brought a loving gun and used it at a scene like that. She was a coward about the whole affair up to it (she was warned many times by many members of the community that this kind of thing was going to loving happen if they let Milo come to UW), but she refused to listen.

I read her statement too. Basically it read like "I wanted to shut it down because I too, did not agree with the message. But I didn't want to have to deal with angry e-mails from the alt-right so I let it happen!"

Of course the Seattle Times editorial board is stating that it's good that Milo was able to speak at UW, because we need to hear "differing opinions": http://www.seattletimes.com/opinion/editorials/an-important-lesson-at-the-uw-on-free-speech/

http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/crime/uw-shooting/quote:[t]he 29-year-old former UW student posted to Yiannopoulos’ Facebook page at 7:24 p.m. “im outside in line to your UW event. “I got sucker punched (he was a bit limp wristed) and someone jacked my #MAGA hat,” he said, referring to the ubiquitous red and white “Make America Great Again” caps worn by supporters of President Trump. Or maybe, you know, he went to the hat shop at 8pm and came back?

https://www.richardsilverstein.com/2017/01/24/uw-shooter-identified/quote:Marc Hokoana, age 29, a known pro-gun activist, can be seen in video and still photographs at the scene shooting a protester. Hokoana is originally from Lacey, WA and graduated from Timberline High School in 2006. He is also a UW alumnus. He appears to be living in Lacey currently. But really, we should just listen to what these people have to say. We shouldn't call this shooting violence and we should keep level heads when reporting on this incident and give everyone the benefit of the doubt. sarcasm Doorknob Slobber fucked around with this message at 02:22 on Jan 25, 2017 |

The Republicans hold every branch of government right now by a majority, and most State governments. And Republicans are using legislative tricks to keep filibusters at bay - they learned that from 8 years of having the Democrats do that to them. We may be a numerically larger group of people, but that doesn't mean poo poo in electoral elections or gerrymandered districts. Hell, we had one of the most massive marches in history and literally nothing came out of it.
