Tigard gets a taste
The Tigard cops shot and killed a mentally ill man the other night.
Tigard is easy driving distance from Portland. So you know what happens next.
Boarded-up businesses, graffiti, broken glass, it has begun. Next are the dumpster fires, maybe some arson, and looting.
It will end some day. There are two possible endings: greatly enhanced social justice or a brutal beatdown of the "protesters."
Part of me wishes we could get on with it, one way or the other.

The platform used for this blog is awfully wonky when it comes to comments. It may work for you, it may not. It's a Google thing, and beyond my control. Apologies if you can't get through. You can email me a comment at jackbogsblog@comcast.net, and if it's appropriate, I can post it here for you.
