Can someone in Oregon verify this statement?
I saw this statement at the DFA blog. I did a search but can not find anything yet.

"7 professors in Portland, OR, have been arrested for questioning the election results. "

1. In a protest
This kind of distortion doesn't help any more than the distortion from the right.

3. I did not distort. I asked a question. You think it was ok?
I can not pull up the website right now. Do you think 7 professors should have been arrested? Were they violent?

5. Not you
It sounded to me like somebody was saying 7 professors were arrested just because they said they thought the elections were stolen. I don't know if it was right or not, I don't know what happened. There was a protest of 100 people, probably more because the media always underreports. Protests in Portland are known to get rowdy, so I don't know what happened.

4. Were they violent? 7 professors, were they violent?
Or are we just not supposed to protest the voting.
