Jewish Persecution Balloons carrying Nazi flags over Tigard, Oregon

Yes, I agree that this is more than just the 'littering' that Tigard, Oregon apparently thinks it is. This is racial assault.

"Though the sparsely populated areas of the state tend to be conservative, the Portland area is rabidly liberal. After a visit there last summer, my wife and I decided that the two hardest things to find in Oregon are an American flag and a church."

This man was visiting this area. He does not live here.

1. Tigard, Oregon is not rabidly liberal. Sorry, I have to go off into the corner and laugh hysterically.....excuse me.

2. OK, I am back. Tigard, Oregon has churches everywhere, too much traffic (ok that is irrelevant to this topic) and is not Portland.

3. There are plenty of people who fly American flags all the time although the number of those fat SUVs with the yellow ribbon have declined....due only to the price of gasoline.

4. This has happened before in Tigard, Oregon and the outrage seems to be nonexistent.

Nazis in Tigard, Oregon...again

OK, this isn't the first time in recent memory. There were those leaflets that were just sloughed off as 'littering' which is what amounts to civil right outrage in Tigard, Oregon. We suspect this is why this kind of offensive activity happens yet again.

Anyone catch anyone doing this offensive, racial assault? This isn't 'littering' Tigard, Oregon this is racial assault. The legal definition of assault needs to be expanded to include this.

TIGARD, Ore. -- Tigard neighbors found a bizarre sight in the sky and in some local streets over the past couple days -- Nazi flags and flyers attached to balloons.

One has to seriously wonder why the tiny podunk suburb of Tigard, Oregon has this kind of activity more than once. What is it about Tigard, Oregon that may invite this kind of activity?

This isn't cheap. This was done with planning.

Has anyone seen Tigard, Oregon's response to this? Is there any kind of responsive other than a bland blurb that Tigard says NO to this? Obviously saying NO on a blurb is tantamount to actually figuring out who did this and fixing the problem. Well, ok, this is what passes for doing something in Tigard, Oregon.

Yawn.

"A group calling itself the American National Socialist Workers Party sent KGW TV an email claiming responsibility.

"We are 100 percent responsible for this guerilla political activism, no act of criminal mischief has occurred,” wrote a man who identified himself as ANSWP commander Bill White. “And we challenge the Tigard police to bring action against us if they feel some law has been violated."

Investigators did not say whether they were planning on any charges in the case."

Charges? Charges? Not planning any charges because....why again?

Tigard, Oregon has Arsenic at the Public Library

Tigard, Oregon admits to having arsenic in the ground around the public library? This is a public library and we are just now finding this out?

Do we need to say it again: Tigard, Oregon sucks. This is ridiculous.

Fenced off - It's not hard to avoid exposure to the old insecticides, a city official says

A new fence closes off an area of the Tigard Public Library grounds found to be contaminated with traces of arsenic, probably from decades-old orchard insecticides and herbicides.

"We're certainly not downplaying this," said Dennis Koellermeier, Tigard Public Works director, "but it's difficult to explain just how low the Department of Environmental Quality has set the safety threshold.

"You'd have to eat contaminated dirt once a week for a full 52 weeks to exceed the acceptable risk level."

Yeah Dennis, Tigard, Oregon is downplaying this. You just said this:

"You'd have to eat contaminated dirt once a week for a full 52 weeks to exceed the acceptable risk level."

That is downplaying arsenic in the ground around the public library in Tigard, Oregon. If you were not downplaying it you would have CLEANED IT UP BY NOW!

This is, Dennis, again downplaying the risk of arsenic around the public library in Tigard, Oregon:

"The good news here, if there is any," Koellermeier added, "is that it is relatively easy to avoid exposure. Don't eat, breathe or touch the contaminated soil."

Good god!

Is this the library that is rumored (or is it reported or is it actually) so poorly built that it is actually below the level of the ground and floods? Is that real or rumor?

God I hate Tigard, Oregon!

Every time you want to give this hell hole a break, things just get worse and worse and worse. Now there is noise pollution from the endless traffic (Tigard, Oregon is now just a traffic interchange for Beaverton/Tualatin/LO not a place to live) and now there is environmental pollution around the public library.

Tigard had old orchard ground in many places...does that mean they are all contaminated with arsenic that is not a 'big deal' according to the standards of those who are supposed to be dealing with this stuff?

We heard that this has been known for years, maybe from 2002? So what is making this come up now?

So, this is from Wikipedia: Arsenic poisoning

Arsenic poisoning kills by allosteric inhibition of essential metabolic enzymes, leading to death from multi-system organ failure. It primarily inhibits enzymes that require lipoic acid as a cofactor, such as pyruvate and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. Because of this, substrates before the dehydrogenase steps accumulate, such as pyruvate (and lactate). It particularly affects the brain, causing neurological disturbances and death.
