1. Steve Pedery:

   You may have visitors go to the refuge for bird-watching and instead hear shotgun blasts, which I'm not sure is appropriate in suburban Portland.

2. Gene Norman:

   It wouldn't be surprising to see flakes flying in places like Montpelier( Vermont) and Portland, Maine.

3. Josh Campbell:

   Portland is not a city under siege. Today, I went to a Starbucks downtown, ate lunch at one of the city's famous downtown food trucks, and bought a new pair of shoes at the mall. As I write this, I'm looking out of my hotel room at a bike tour riding by outside on the downtown street, to be sure, there have been protests -- peaceful during the daytime, and some turning violent at night -- for over 90 days, but the rioting has largely been confined to one city block downtown near the federal courthouse. Last night, protesters showed up at a police precinct a few miles from downtown and were dispersed by police after some protesters started throwing eggs and rocks at police cars. There has been periodic, localized violence, but nothing widespread.

4. Stan Pulliam:

   The City of Portland agreeing that over 100 days of violence and riots on its streets was the fault of the police is an insulting attempt to shift blame onto the only people in a position to keep Portlanders safe, law Enforcement Officers are already having to quit their jobs in a city that has no regard for the rule of law anymore.

5. Laura Hammond:

   Our goal isn’t to shut Uber down. It’s really to ensure the minimum public safety requirements, we were really hoping they would be willing to work with us the same way they did with Portland.
