1. Chris, if two men with guns force you into a van, you're going to go into the van. Struggling or trying to flee could get you shot with real bullets.
2. Governor Brown seemed resigned to the occupation. I don't think she's acting irresponsibly, but she spoke very carefully, very deliberately and let Chris and the world know that neither she not Portland's mayor want Trump's thugs on their streets and that both she and Portland's mayor have asked that they be withdrawn. That's fine, but, well, I expected more of an expressed sense of outrage, a notion that if the goons don't go, things are going to happen and "stuff" is going to hit the fan. Maybe a reference to her and her immediate staff being on the phone with their Senators and Representatives almost constantly, deliberating about what is being done and what can be done, and with Wolf and the butt-wipe Cuccinelli, shaking fists in a manner of speaking and using the bully pulpit of her office to stay in the camera's eye to keep the American people focused on the fascist outrage taking place in her state. (But, then, I'm not in the Governor's shoes and am unfamiliar with the restraints that may be forced upon her by her position.)
