Called a friend to make sure she was OK from the fires.she lives in one of the suburbs outside of Portland.
I just wanted to know if she was safe. She gave me an earful..
COVID-19 is a hoax
Masks are government plots
She will wear a mask if a business requires it
Antifa set every wildfire in Oregon, California, and Washington
Governor will not allow firefighters make fire break lines
She refuses to leave her home (still in level 1) because people are watching houses and waiting for
People to leave so they can come and loot houses
She is sleeping with a loaded gun under her pillow because she knows someone will break in
Governor should have been grooming the forests
Every single person who is rioting in Portland is BLM.
She is dating a doctor who believes the same things (plastic surgeon)
All I could say was, ok. She has never been political. Told her I was glad she was safe.
Glad that phone call ended.
