The city of Portland is now set to vote on a proposed law that would ban doing business with the state of Texas after the state’s recent imposition of a new ‘heartbeat’ law designed to protect the life of the unborn.
As The Hill reports:
The Portland, Ore., City Council is planning to vote on Wednesday on a proposal to ban doing business with the state of Texas following the controversial new abortion restrictions enacted in The Lone Star State.
In a statement last week, Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler (D) said that the city council will vote whether to ban trading goods and services with Texas and bar state employee business travel as well, citing the abortion law that bans abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected and allows private citizens to sue anyone they believe has helped a woman violate the limits.
“This law does not demonstrate concern for the health, safety, and well-being of those who may become pregnant. This law does not recognize or show respect for the human rights of those who may become pregnant,” Wheeler said in a statement. “This law rewards private individuals for exercising surveillance and control over others’ bodies. It violates the separation of church and state. And, it will force people to carry pregnancies against their will.”
“Portland City Council stands with the people who may one day face difficult decisions about pregnancy, and we respect their right to make the best decision for themselves.”
Is Portland’s move an isolated incident or a sign of things to come? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
Is this even legal? Would think a challenge is coming if passed.
love you guys
Oh, please Portland & all you other liberal States, please don’t travel to Texas, please!
Yes, please stay away and shove your liberal ideas where the sun don’t shine.
You being much too genteel. I say shove it up commie Ted Wheelers’ ass
It would like that.
and stay out of florida too!
AMEN TO THAT!!!
Florida is the place to go for free Americans. Stop anyone from Portland coming here.
WOW!! All of you would really be happy in China where they kill babies!
Yes, I agree! Please, liberals, stay in Oregon where you love the mess. Texans wouldn’t put up with your warped view of life anyway.
Not All of Oregon is a liberal ,
Apparently too much of Oregon is liberal, seeing that the state & cities are run by dems.
Apparently enough of it is since part of the state wants to secede and join Iowa.
Idaho. 🙂
Then you guys need to get together and take your beautiful state back before it’s lost forever to the clutches of dumbass liberals.
Then fight back, if you want to stay free!!
Does that include stopping the ironically named Anti-fascists from coming to Texas and attacking citizens protesting against more government over-reach? Let them stay in Portland and show how anarchy can reduce crime.
Goor, we don’t want you here. You believe in killing people. I guess you believe if I kill someone in your state I can go free?? That’s the way I see it!!!’
Definitely legal. I don’t have to do business with anybody or state I don’t want to and I don’t have to pay for travel of anybody I am paying to go there. It’s called freedom of choice. Especially if I’m in charge.
Sadly, when this is not entirely true. When a liberal wants to force a Christian business owner to go against their beliefs, liberal judges attempt to force their beliefs on the Christian owner. Oh, and one other thing – What about the rights of the unborn child? Sad, how that individual’s rights are ignored.
globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep imagine that they are free to abuse planned parenthood criminal organisation while they demand everyone else must accept globalists, coronavirus scam vaccine
Shove your Commie ideas where the sun don’t shine Vlad !
Or where Don Lemon likes it!
Absolutely correct!!
Totally agree….you “spoke” the truth whether anybody likes it or not.
Unless you refuse to bake a cake for homosexuals
I’d bake it. They might not like it. But, I’d bake it. If you are unaware of where I am going, read the book, or watch the movie “The Help”.
One can bake a cake of many exotic ingredients, like moose droppings. Tee hee hee…
Guess what a..hole? You aren’t in charge so go crawl back under the rock from whence you came.
And so it is up to you? You are in charge?
Did he make any demands of you, Cheryl, or anyone else? Who are the ones making demands of private citizens?
MASSIVE confusion between Vlyadilyich and Vladimir
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, a.k.a. Nikolai LENIN.
I guess I had MASSIVE confusion between the Russians Vlyadilyich and Vladimir.
Take a break and share your mommy’s internet with your husband .
Well I don’t think you’re presence will make a damn bit of difference!! So you and your Demroid minions just stay in your communist shitholes !!! Texas will do just fine without your twisted Marxist political viewpoints!!!
Texas doesn’t need more slobs, STAY HOME!
Evidently you don’t understand the law being proposed in Portland. It’d ban you from traveling to TX or doing business in TX as a government employee but still wanted to do so. It has no effect on private individuals or companies – so far. But I’ll bet the leftists will try to overreach.
I believe you miss the jest of the law proposed, the only choice they are proposing is their choice
So pleased you’re in charge!
Stay the F away from The great state of Texas, don’t come crawling for fuel either
#we don’t want you
Your comment is shared by myself and I’m sure many others too!
couldn’t have stated it any better!
One thing the United States government is tasked with doing, it to ensure that INTERSTATE COMMERCE is made REGULAR – no ganging up by States against others.
Of course DC has made that completely worthless, because DC believes in REGULATING STATES TO DEATH.
Yes we’re free to not support Communism. Could be a treasonous act to support Portland. Stop all business with any Communist city or state. Stand for American values. Knell for our Lord
But women or teens do ask Medicaid to pay – not matter where they are, which robs other people of needed funding for legitimate healthcare like CANCER.
No it is not legal, but the low IQ commie goons on the left do not have the brains to understand that simple fact. Such embarrassing fools.
tT
That’s a good question. Does Article IV, Section 1 of the Constitution, the Full Faith and Credit Clause, apply? Or does the Constitution even matter?
Why doesn’t Oregon worry about its own problems and issues. Texas will deal with its own problems and issues. That simple.
Saw a picture of that fruitcake Merritt Garland on the TV last night. Making a big issue about Texas too. Thank God that tard did not make it to the Supreme Court.
Ahh , an idea who’s time has come
The fact that Merrick Garland didn’t make it to the Supreme Court is the ONE thing we can thank Bait & Switch Mitch McConnell for. He’s totally worthless for anything else.
Baseball did it to GA after their voter reform bill passed.
Baseball is NOT government.
Just tell the people of Oregon that ALL of their drugs come from Texas. Then sit back and watch.
My guess they are talking state employees/city conducting business for the city.
Precisely. It would affect city government businesses and city government employees only.
Are they really this stupid. What are they going to do, put road blocks at each highway out of the state so no one could drive to Texas? Stop all airline flights, commercial and private out of the state to Texas? Bus travel? Are they really so stupid??? Guess so as they allow insurrection to continue in that state with their blessings.
It would only affect city government businesses and employees. If they violated the law they could either be fined or terminated. However, with the rabid leftists in Portland, termination could have a more drastic meaning (sarcasm on the last sentence).
What does that prove? So if their Mom, Dad, children, family live in Texas or Florida they are not allowed to visit? It’s that Communism?? Someone has a loose screw!!
So sad. Democrats and Republicans are constantly ripping this country apart with divisive policies.
You are half right.
LOL
Lmao Earl. You’re spot on!
I don’t see any Republicans doing these assinine stunts to divide the country….but whatever!
Constantly trying to outlaw abortions is most certainly divisive when half the country is for them.
States rights still count.
Too bad your mama had a kid that lived. You would not have been here if she had kept her pants up and her legs closed. Best way I know to avoid abortions.
Amen
Think your pro numbers are off a tad.
Put on a rubber brother!! Then you’ll have no worries!
why is it you democRATS are so rabid to kill babies?
It’s for population control amongst undesirables, or it was supposed to be.
The conservatives are trying to stop abortions for the sake of convenience, not for valid medical reasons. The socialists and Democrats have always used euthanasia to try to eliminate what they considered undesirable people, like blacks with Margaret Sanger.
Kind of funny that the only ones demanding abortion rights have already made it through the birth canal.
We didn’t Outlaw Abortions we Simply put a heartbeat bill on it, once the heart beats, its a human and Murder IS murder, and the supremes upheld it….
Where do you get that half the country is far them? Did you take a poll on half the country. If you don’t want babies use preventive methods.
I totally agree with you. What is really bad is this CRT they are teaching our children behind our backs. They Tell kids not to tell their parents, because their parents are stupid etc, etc!!!
If Independents like you would just examine your conscience and pick a side IAW your closest beliefs, maybe this country would have gotten rid of a lot of the garbage that has been foisted on this country by the Dem/Liberals/Progressives. But instead you keep voting for candidates who don’t have a chance at getting elected, and then you gripe about those of us that have the sense to pick one of the major parties and then work through the ballot box to get that party to do what we want. What does GOD want you to do???
You conveniently chose to confuse your globalist puppets; demonrats and rinos with republicans .
Policy? This is about allowing children to live…..you know, like you were allowed to be born. I wish more people were willing to listen to the truth of the suffering of babies during abortions , before their deaths, and the horrific experiments on survivors.
There’s more concern in this country for endangered prairie chickens than for babies vacuumed out of its mother’s womb , or left on a medical tray to die.
Remember, just because you can’t hear them crying doesn’t mean they’re not feeling anything, in spite of the lies of Pro- Choice thinkers .
I Agree with you
What makes you think that they care about the baby? If they did, they wouldn’t think of allowing such a horrible thing as murdering a helpless baby who has a God given right to life. Oh wait, I forgot. They don’t believe in God!
I am not for big government. Therefore the government needs to stay out of women’s wombs and let women make their own decisions over their own bodies and their unborn.
How about saying “no” before she decides to have a good time and doesn’t use protection?
Yep ! Common sense , something that seems to be in short supply these days
Well, why don’t I go violently murder someone close to you like a sibling or parent and then use the defense that I have the right to make my own decisions over my body? MURDER is MURDER no matter how you twist it!!!
Or you could kill someone near to him (I started to say “dear to him” but obviously people who hate babies don’t have anyone dear to them)—and call it “retroactive abortion.” He might want to charge you with murder, but naw, it was just retroactive abortion. I’m sure he’ll be good with that.
It ain’t the government getting into the wombs and creating unwanted children you boob!
Maybe there are some things that should stay out of vaginas! Like unprotected sex!
True. I believe it wholeheartedly. But, Texas has the right to say “Git yer abortion, somewhere else.”
Do women give the father’s a choice to keep their child? Do you think a person who kills another person is wrong? You think the government should “stand by” for that? Pro lifers believe life is life & destroying that life is wrong. Science hasn’t proved it’s not. Any honest scientist will tell you they don’t know. Is it at conception, heartbeat, movement, reaction to pain, first breath out of the womb? Justice screams out for evidence with no room for doubt…
I’m not for big government, but I don’t think the government should allow the wholesale slaughter in poor black neighborhoods. Do you?
My dear it is called killing. If you don’t want babies, protect your self before you have sex. So much easier on you because if you have never had babies and want some in the future, an abortion may make you sterile, so use protection before sex!!! Elementary!!!
Yes, absolutely…You left out another equasion or two…How about those who HARVEST baby parts? What about those who are hell bent on decreasing the world’s population. Go all the way back and see what’s pushing all of this evil……SATAN the Destroyer. He hates God and thus does all he can to try to destroy mankind…any way he can…and even justifies doing so.
Why doesn’t god just destroy satan?
He will, but He’s giving everyone enough time to make the right decision about who to follow.
Great comment!
Ill add another fact to your comment…. the bio labs are also using fetal tissues to create human/animal hybrids!
Thank you Texas for making a huge stand against barbarianism!
As I read it most if not all of the divisive attitudes come from the Democrat side. The modern Democrats are socialists. My grandfather and uncles were Democrat I think. They would be Republican by today’s definition. We don’t need socialism. We don’t need communism. We need thinking freedom loving Americans.
Just sub the word babies with puppies and see how much support you get.
I guess Portland likes being sued. The U.S. Constitution provides for freedom of movement among and between the several States and territories.
globalists and their puppets in portland should keep their libby snow flake sheep in their schitt hole portland .
Sure! Just like the little Adolphs and their Covid I.D. requirements to travel interstate??
I’m calling them Branch Covidians.
What a GREAT epithet!!! Kudos!
We don’t need you, Portland. Kiss my ass
What Texan would want to go to Portland? It’s a war zone and a commie shithole
I sure don’t want any Commie Portlanders in Texas or in MY state. They can all stick it.
Great !!!! Pray to GOD the ban stands !!!! Stay out of Texas if you don’t agree. Thank you
god wants his globalists and their demonrats and libby snow flake sheep and illegal criminal invader voters and taliban terrorists to move around and F up the entire country and world .
sokay. Winter is coming and fuel oil is going through the roof. Wind fans and solar won’t be effective. Lights out, Portland.
Texans need to be partying in the streets chanting” ban us Portland Please. “
Wheeler really is a babbling Moron..Portland is a disaster, and he has the NERVE to say ANYTHING about what happens in another State..this guy is a disgrace as Mayor; he let terrorists destroy what used to be a decent City, and he seriously needs to shut the heck up, so he stops making a complete fool of himself.,
It’s like Abe Lincoln said “it’s better to shut ones’ mouth and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt!”
guess I won’t be traveling to or buying anything from OR
Their idiots out there. There’s no way that legal. If it was that easy I would vote to cut Portland out of the USA. Rioters are a bunch of pukes!
Good news for Texas.
I have no reason to visit Portland, the POS city, run by radicals!
Guess the Portland Trailblazers wont be traveling to any Texas nba teams
Good! Texans won’t have to hide their dogs or children, lock their homes and vehicles or get rabies shots.
Democrats would rather kill babies than do business with the great state of Texas. Too bad their parents didn’t believe in killing their babies.
hey that is not a bad thing! Maybe Portland will become CITY OF CHOICE to the liberal crowd and they will leave Texas alone–maybe also Arizona, Ohio, South Carolina, Michigan etc…
Could it be true? Could be we so lucky! Could it actually happen? Does that include all the antifa, blm, and other consummate Portlanders? We here in Texas are all for it! Don’t tease us like that if you aren’t serious please.
I heard that. Makes me want to sneak up there and stuff some ballot boxes.
Ummmmm….. We don’t want you liberal fukcheads coming down here and stinking our BEAUTIFUL CONSERVATIVE NO-BABY KILLERS ALLOWED STATE anyway !! Is this supposed to make us feel like a bunch of asexual butthurt libturds BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA Yeah right!
And the entire state of Texas takes a deep breath of air, untainted by the woke, west coast, liberal idiots. I think I see a new Texas state holiday coming soon.
How utterly disgraceful! This bill is what Texans want! The believe in the sanctity of life! God Bless Texas!
Good. Texas doesn’t need them and babies are a hell of a lot more important than whatever Oregon has to offer Texas. They will be just fine and unborn children will be safer. And Oregon can pound sand, particularly Portland.
Hey Portland. Keep your Liberal asses out if Arkansas too.
Liberal states will follow with similar disruptions of the unity of the US. Let us not forget, that when Lincoln, a Republican, was elected President, the Southern Democrats began the Civil War. The Democrats were the party of slavery and are now the communists, who see the people as the property of their state.
Welfare is a tool used to trap people in inner cities, run by the descendants of former slave owners and by the descendants of the black overseers, who helped the slave owners manage the slaves.
Now that Biden has been in power, we are seeing a massive drop in employment by people of color, forcing many back on to welfare. The China virus shutdown and inflation are just some of their tools to crash the economy.
The Leftists are certainly taking tremendous advantage of the China Virus, ramping it up into The Black Plague of the 21st century to break down our our liberties and cudgel us into submission. There are nations in Europe where one cannot make any significant moves without a vaccine passport: ‘
‘Papers, please!’ Portland barring travel to Texas sounds eerily similar. It’s all the same: anti-Constitutional. Do exactly what WE tell you or else. You are property of the Government and your rights are assigned and allotted by Government.
ALL TRUCKERS: no deliveries to Portland or surrounding areas. It’s being run by violent deadly commies. Residents unite. Cut power and water to city. Block all exits. BLM antifa. Watch em burn.
Texas is probably breathing a sigh of relief. Good, no Oregonians are coming here. It’;s tough enough dealing with Californians.
globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep are globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep whether they come from oregon or california or new york etc .
Red states untie, FORBID PRODUCTS FROM OREGON IN OUR STATES.
defective products from oregon !
If you don’t want to get pregnant, take a birth control pill or keep your knees together!
Abso..freakin..lately!
And allow globalist puppet, libby snow flake male sheep to swallow their libby snow flake male sheep .
Abortion is murder it stops a beating heart also if someone murders a pregnant woman they are charged with two counts of murder that should tell you all you need to know unless you have your head buried in the snad.
No it’s’ buried up their ass
Perhaps more women will act responsibly & take advantage of the free birth control that government hands out or just stop having unprotected sex. What a radical concept.
Hopefully those globalist puppets will practice; libby snow flake male sheep/libby snow flake male sheep and libby snow flake female sheep/libby snow flake female sheep .
If they love abortion so much then we should be able to abort them and all Democrats!
I’m sure Texas is devastated! Keep the wackos out!!!
I’m sure Texas can survive without the libtard jerks from Portland. The real Americans are sick of the woke libs. Hope theirs that have fled Californication, new York and Michigan don’t ruin the real states.
That is great, we don’t need the liberal SOBs here anyway!
SCREW PORTLAND!
I wish they would stay away from all other states. contain that insane socialist liberal leftist insanity to themselves
But they are happy to o business with China
If you’re stupid enough to live in Portland, us Texans don’t want you here to begin with.
Why would anyone want to travel to Portland, Oregon? Maybe to set fire to government buildings, harrass decent, law abiding citizens and police and firefighters or just to loot, burn and destroy someone’s livelihood.
Interesting that no one ever talks about the health and well being of the baby…
We don’t want them in TEXAS, anyway. I hope it passes!
Texas thanks you very much Portland. We do not want to do business with any place run as asinine as you are.
And, we are to believe that burning down buildings and businesses- injuring and killing “already-born” people and stealing their livelihoods- is a POSITIVE thing????????? Maybe other states should boycott Oregon!!!!?!!!!
Portland is not a place to be. The hotels are infested with bedbugs, seriously. The streets are crawling with vermin. Don’t accept any portland residents in your Rental units. Last visit ,was the last visit Very dirty city. Joe Biden
No one needs Portland…
globalists need their globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep in portland .
Lucky for Texas. Let the Portlanders stay in their liberal “paradise ” and let them finish burning their city. No need to have them spreading their obnoxious politics anywhere else.
Portland you have Nothing Left that Texas wsnts. So please stay home.
This makes no sense what so ever
Omg to funny who wants Democrats from Portland in there state anyway I would think Texas is saying thank you !!
California already “bans travel” to about half the country (including Texas), which means that state employees cannot use state funds to travel there. I suppose a state could decide not to contract with vendors from another state, but I don’t see how it could ban businesses within the state from doing so, given that the Constitution grants the federal government the sole authority to control interstate commerce.
Oh WOW! There goes the Texas economy!
I think the Portland mayor is a hypocrite!!! Coersion and mandating this jab is against OUR HUMAN RIGHTS!!!!
PORTLAND WILL REGRET THAT , the mayor and all on the board will have to face our Lord Jesus!!!
And Portland brings what to the conversation?? Riots??
Closest thing to a communist city here in the United States, who you gonna hurt by staying away from Texas??
The proof is in the pudding. Portland is run by nazis.
Portand should keep their globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep in cages and don’t allow them to destroy Texas or Florida etc .
I’d go to Texas now, NEVER wh0re’gon again……d0rks!
Most animals protect their young. A new low has been reached in Portland.
Should be interesting as Texas is a lot richer than Portland and I doubt that our companies
will notice the loss of revenue from a brunch of brainless liberals idiots who endorse the
murder of Children? But a contract is a contract and you have obligations to honor them
or pay the penalties.
Oh, dear me. Portland is trying to cancel us. I’m shaking in fear.
Honestly, I can’t think of a place in the US I’d like further from my state. (OK, maybe CA, but at least CA has some things going for it.) Do me a favor, Portland. Just slide on out into the sea. You won’t be missed.
Gotta LOVE,LOVE, LOVE this ! It’s NOT like Texans really need anything from portland (spelled porcelain’d ) so do as you will, and ban airline stops from your state to ours Immediately if Not sooner ! we do NOT need your trashy Antifa, Coffee, people ….And if you do come down make sure you take an Illegal under EACH arm as you go back.
HEY WHEEELER, SHOVE IT WHERE THE SUN DONT SHINE!! YOU WILL NOT DICCTATE HOW WE DO BUISNESS WITH ANYONE ANYWHERE!!!
Texas doesn’t need Portland – it’s their loss, not a loss for Texas.
Do they realize what Texas provides? Why should they have anything to do with what Texas decides?
Wow. This could be great. State will be passing our heartbeat policy left and right just to keep Oregon out. Who could blame them?
Good luck with that one, fascists!!!
I say stay in Oregon and keep aborting your own!!!
Please don’t travel to Texas, you aren’t wanted or needed!
Who would want to go there?????
Do the people of Texas even WANT anyone coming from Portland to enter their state?? Given the recent lawlessness, riots and violence and dysfunction in Portland, I think the folks in Texas are better off and should let the folks from Portland boycott them.
Once again the Portland City Council’s fascist roots are on public display.
Good nobody wants the snowflakes in their state ,all they do is cause trouble
You are free to do whatever you want as long as we say it’s ok. Sincerely, Portland administration!
Portland has a communist city council.
HYSYTERICAL!! As if Texas needs any antifa, blm slobs or more ebola, dysentery cases, bubonic plague,……….
I pray someone files a class action law suit against these communists. Portland will lose big time. Texas can their products elsewhere.
I doubt Portland has anything that Texas needs anyway. If they cut off any oil from Texas it will only hurt Portland. Hard to find anything or anyone as Stupid as the Portland government.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU PORTLAND, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May I recommrnd we build a high fence around Portland and not let them go anywhere? I also suspect they are doing this only because there are so many getting the Hell out to a free Texas with real crime control.
Texans will be overjoyed to not have the trashy Oregon airheads coming their state.
I live in Texas. Would love whatever it takes to keep them out of Texas.
Ban your people from Iowa as well. Please.
Well, it’s safe to say that no one will be doing business with Portland for they are terminating all their future populace…
I’m sure Texans don’t want those commies showing up and fouling the air in the state with their presences, anyway.
Stay home! I was born in Oregon. I had sense enough to leave long ago. You have a governor who is insane.
Maybe not so much an isolated incident, but rather more of an isolation incident… 0ne that might lead to Portland becoming isolated.
What a hypocrite Whiney Wheeler is, as he shuts down his city and wants to force Covid jabs into anybody and everybody. I wonder what will happen when nobody wants to do business with Portland. Now that would be what I call, cheap entertainment.
LISTEN UP…GOD Says…..LET There Be ADOPTIONS instead of ABORTIONS. A WOMAN’S BODY is NOT HER OWN….it Belongs to GOD. EVERYTHING on GOD’S PLANET EARTH….Belongs to HIM. From SamuraiQueen. 😄😄😄
To bad Wheelers mother didn’t abort him.
Idiots!
The pandemic is our judgement for our immorality. You want to end the pandemic, end abortion, the murder of innocents, end gender switching, homosexuality, human trafficking etc. Quit offending God!!!
Fine! We don’t need your crazies in Texas anyway.
It’s ironically hypocritical, even the wording which states:
”This law rewards private individuals for exercising surveillance and control over others’ bodies.”
Isn’t this exactly what they are doing here in Portland, or rather the entire state of Oregon? Mandating masks and reporting those who violate this, fining and closing businesses that go against it, and now Oregon is mandating vaccines, get the shot or lose your job! If that isn’t control over others bodies, then what is it? How does Ted Wheeler, and anyone else supporting this ban, not see the double standard? Live by your own standards, or shut up!!
Time for secession. Long overdue. Why would you wish to be part of this nightmare any longer?
What kind of person fights to kill more babies? What kind of a business or government demands the right to kill more babies?
Good bye and good riddance to all of you communist democrat cult party members, just stay in the cesspool that you have created and don’t buy anything your state doesn’t produce!
Sorry Wheeler, but a person getting pregnant should be married with a husband as God decreed. Dont try glamourizing murder of the innocent little Souls who have no defense at the cruelty of PP. Why is the name planned parenthood? Parenthood signifies marriage and family planning to have children. They are not lumps pf meat to be harvested for profit or Andrechrome. Wake up! God frowns on the murder of little innocent lives so greedy people can stay young, rich forever. These Abortionists have no soul! (As for Portland? I suggest you rather clean house
👀 Libturds should just stay in place…nobody want’s these psychos over for a visit❓
The folks who govern Portland, as most people throughout the country already know, have lost all touch with reality. Led by liberal basket case, Ted Wheeler, they have succumbed to the toxicity which is abject liberalism, and they have forsaken common sense. Much like a petulant child, they cry and scream out their demands without consideration for the feelings and opinions of others. They live in a vacuum created by their mental isolation and departure from what is objectively reasonable in the real world.
So?? I long ago banned any travel to or business with Portland & doubt that their economic impact will be any greater than mine!!!
I seriously doubt Texans will be upset not having the Antifa controlled Portland residents visit their state. In fact, they would probably be happy if all of the left coast liberal residents stayed where they are .
Time for a Change of “Diapers”in Portland, because it can’t hold much more Crap and Survive!
Aren’t you killing future Democrat voters with your abortion rights??? No wonder you as political party have to “support a invading army of illegal aliens to use as illegal alien voters with massive voter fraud to win the 2022 and 2024 elections, to replace your dead future Democrat voters”!!!!
Is killing the unborn beautiful babies legal? I think not. Why can the government impose the jab on Americans and be legal. You people are as sick as terrorists who behead people in the name of their god.
We are one nation under God.
Portland a hellhole of a non American democraps criminals lowlifes traitors a Sodom and Gomorrah should sink into Hell. A mayor who has the brain of maggot shit. So we as true Americans should be concerned about Portland boycotting the Great State of Texas I think not. So let Portland rot along with the commie bastard mayor
I would pay for ANTIFA to travel to Texas, well I would pay for the Pay Per View of the fight when they try to do in Texas what they do in Portland! I don’t think the ANTIFA wimps are brave enough to hit the streets of Texas, they would get the crap kicked out of them and they don’t look like the toughest crowd in the world.
So if they pass this law for government employees not to spend any money in Texas then why wouldn’t Texas pass a similar law in reverse. So anyone that doesn’t like the politics of a state will just silo themselves with their like-minded people, another well thought out plan by a bunch of knuckleheads. BTW, Oregon has a Gross State Product that is 8X smaller than Texas! So your threats are as empty as your heads! Oregon is an economic pipsqueak and if it weren’t for marijuana they would probably have nothing, talk about bong resin in the place of brain cells! I am not surprised with the leadership or lack thereof in Oregon that this is what they spend their time coming up with. Leading industry in Oregon? Homelessness, followed closely behind by anarchy.
this action is how socialists behave, not those who would live in a republic. as for Texas, it is my opinion that those citizens don’t do much business with the antifa anyway.
that sounds great Texan’s don’t want them there anyway
naw texas could never be that lucky
Thank you Portland we don’t want your kind in TEXAS.
What should be done is BAN all freight trucks, trains, Planes from going to Portland . Can not enter, can not leave. Nothing goes in , nothing comes out.
Good riddance…Texas doesn’t need a bunch of liberals infecting their state.
Oh no, what horrible news
The Antifa BLM gangsters and there portland city thugs I don’t think God fearing Texan care weather are not portland oregon comes to Texas anyhow with the morning after pill there’s no reason for a woman who gets raped by a portland oregon thug to get pregnant so there’s no reason for a woman to wait a kill a human being exspacailly when there’s others involved
Why not ban travel nationwide to red States
Who does these think they are dictate where we can go. Call out the covert vigilante group out of Sinaloa against family’s associated to antifa
I think is funny that they will stop doing business with Texas while they chase their corporations to Texas
Somebody give Mr. Wheeler a copy of the Constitution
Thats great keep all the assholes in there state im sure Texas is saying thank you ! If not i will Thank you ! To funny ooo please let your assholes come to Texas .. NOT !
Ironically, the Portland City Council seems to be concerned about future citizens – today’s children in the womb – who would not have a chance of life were it not for the new Texas law.
The quote:
“Portland City Council stands with the people who may one day face difficult decisions about pregnancy, and we respect their right to make the best decision for themselves.”
Good.
Stay out with your liberal crap
You’re unwelcome anyway.
The left have never before been this insane, intolerant, or violent. How sick they are that they would sacrifice anything to punish those good people seeking to protect the lives of the unborn
And Texans don’t want to go to Portland!!
Portland voters are geniuses. I recommend that they pass a law where Oregon can not do business with anyone, anywhere except for inside of Oregon. No travel, no phone calls, no internet beyond the borders of Oregon. Now THAT, voters of Oregon, would show the world how intelligent you are.
Easier fix, if you dont want a baby, keep your legs crossed.
Do you really think Texas cares if the wack jobs from Portland stay away?? LOL
It sure does something about the safety, health and well-being of the unborn though, doesn’t it?
Good news!!!! Fewer Liberal Idiots carpetbagging to my state. All Conservatives and Conservative owned businesses welcome.
Finally Great news! Keep destroying Portland instead of Texas. Please enforce this Portland!!
Why don’t you just ban people from traveling to any Southern State because they once had slaves.
Portland, you may keep your Communistic ideals and Texas will be elated to not have you come to Texas; and BTW can you have California follow you! Please!!
The best decision for themselves a woman can make is to have the child rater than abortion.
Poor Portland! I know there must be some decent Patriots in Portland but they must be few. Too bad Antifamorons are allowed to reside there. It’s past time for open season on Antifa and all terrorists. Great job Texas, stopping the killing of babies for the sake of birth control. America is paying for It’s stupidity and so will Oregon!
It’s just one more sign that this old world is going to hell in a hand basket. In the last days..”eviul “men” will wax worse and worse. The pimple has to come to a head before you pop it. Just sayin’.
Really? Try to stop me from going to another state. Your a bunch of nazis. America is still free ! Grow up and stop your stupidity and controlling people. If you people in that state allow this to happen. You just prove to the world just how uneducated and stupid you are. Read a history book. Your government is your enemy. Your governor is a total nutcase drunk on power. One sicko after another coming out of the democrat party.
If I lived n Texas that wouldn’t concern me one bit. Might even make me glad.
Stupid people do stupid things and only the worst of them will go along with it.
That is great news for Texas. We want those crazy people in Oregon (and elsewhere!) to stay away from normal and decent people.
According to the interstate commerce clause in the Bill of Rights, the regulation of said commerce falls within the authority of the Federal government, not some mentally challenged city council members of an insignificant city. Are those idiots attempting to usurp Federal authority? Unlike those fools, I have actually read the Constitution…more than once. Am I wrong here? And by the way, of the many, many things Texas and Texans do not need or want, it is ANYTHING from the Soviet Socialist Gulag of Oregonistan. Those mental midgets must actually believe that Portland is an important little community.
I should add that we will welcome their refugees with open arms and a big ol’ Texas “Howdy, Pardner. Welcome to the land of the free.”
Why do they think anyone in their right mind would want to go to Portland, anyway?
Portland and Oregon can please stay home and not trouble Texans with their presence in our state. Maybe we should not send any of our products to Oregon and none of us to travel there also.
This seems to violate Federal Interstate Commerce law and regulations, so Oregon go to hell.
Portland are a bunch of losers.
If I WERE TEXAS, I’D BE HAPPY.
Are some liberal panties in a wad?
AND the State of Texas breathes a sigh of relief!
On information and belief, Portlandia is a s**thole.
A BIG chunk of the State of Oregon wants OUT of Oregon, because of PORTLAND.
Somehow, I don’t think that the Portland government’s lack of a presence in the State of Texas will be even noticed, let alone missed. Elephants aren’t aware that ants aren’t present.
That is OK.No body in Texas wants these crazy scumbags in there State any way.Hell in 50 years they will all be extinct .
Who cares. They need us more than we need them.
Texas doesn’t have to ban traveling to Portland.
No one wants to go to Ted Wheeler’s shithole city.
Portland, that is fine. Vote however you want.
I am sure that the number of people who support your ban is vastly overshadowed by the number of people that are no longer traveling to Portland.
You know, the city ran by socialist, fascist thugs that call themselves “antifa”. They actions more closely identify with the violent Nazi German “Brown shirts” that attacked anyone that opposed the control of the “narrative” put forth by the Nazis. Opposition to Free Speech. Opposition to free press. Opposition to opposing political positions. Opposition to racism. Opposition to the sanctity of life, for all people.
If any city need to be quarantined, it is PORTLAND.
Even if the leftist Portlandians would be so tyrannical as to pass this proposed law, the Patriots would most certainly rebel and refuse to obey it. To comply would be to dishonor the Constitution.
stay in Portland then! we don’t want you here anyway. I should say “what’s left of burned out, looted Portland”
So much for tolerance and states rights. The “UNITED” States of America? Maine wants to extend its rule nation wide. How arrogant.
Obviously a sign of things to come. Your state passes a law the woke crowd doesn’t like? Boycott! Notice that nowhere in the quoted statements is there ANY concern for the baby
(no, it’s not a pre-human)? Maybe Texas should ban the import or transit of likely woke-infected lumber.
We should make birth control mandatory just like vaccines. That should reduce the amount of people seeking abortions.
And this is a problem?
Duh! everyone is is fighting to do business with Portland, land of the wild blacks
Good, Texans don’t want you here!
this is too bizarre for words…. texas could give a DAMN what portland does or thinks….. piss of
Holy Crap!!!
How lucky is Texas to keep these Libatard, Moron, scumbags out of their state??!!
How can we get them to Ban Travel to Florida, or ALL conservative states for that matter???
Please Portland Morons…….stay where you are and ROT!!!!!
Portland is just another in an ever growing list of lib shit hole cities that is they were to be blown up NOBODY would care about.
And just HOW is that a bad thing for Texas> Roflmao
Good, don’t need any more leftest idiots in Texas
Like Texas cares…..
So funny it cannot be real?
This is great!! Now if we could just get California to do the same!!
I’m sure this is just devastating (sarcasm) to Texas because now Portland won’t be exporting it’s antifa terrorists.
Does anyone give a flying wit what Portland thinks anyway?
Hey Portland, try fixing your own city, trust me, no one wants to go to that terrorist controlled cr@phole and we don’t need a council to pass a resolution to say so.
As if the City of Portland or the state of Oregon is any big threat to Texas. They have made themselves a non-entity. because no one wants to do business with such a crime ridden and messed up municipality!
It’s not about abortion; people only go there to die from Covid. Avoid the south and live.
This would be one less problem for Texans!
Texas doesn’t need anything from Portland that it doesn’t already have.
Ok. Let’s stop the nat gas, oil, beef and Boycott Their tech companies. Don’t travel there for vacation.etc.
No problem with this. I live in Texas and we don’t need useful idiots from somewhere as insignificant as Portland here anyway.
I am sure Texas cares doesn’t about sh-t hole Portland doing any business with them
They should just go all in and ban any travel outside of the City of Portland since there is no place outside of Portland that is less racist, less sexist, less welcoming, and less woke than their utopian city. The residents of Portland need to be protected from the horrors that await them outside the city line.
That was supposed to be less discriminating, not less welcoming.
Great! We don’t want any Portlanders (who seem to thrive on violence) to enter our State!
Seriously – Portland ( OREGON) a City not a State – YOU HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO BAN SHIT –
Portland liberals like all liberals possess an amputated spirit.
“My body, my choice?” I tried that when the tried to jab me with a gene altering concoction for the non disease they call covid. They said “tough”, it’s not your body.
It is rather interesting that Portland can’t seem to handle its own problems….Maybe they should take care of their own issues and stop meddling in those from other states.
Do you really think The Great State of Texas really wants you idiots tocome into their state after what you let happen in your state. Please stupid as you are keep it in your border lines.
Who cares Texas doesn’t want to do business with a bunch of liberal Commies in Oregon anyhow
I’m sure Texas is very happy!
Please list any product that is manufactured or endorsed by Portland. This is a Communist run , supported by anti- American ideals. Ban Portland, boycott them. They have nothing we want or need. We have been there and found Portland was a hell hole. No police protection unless you represent the criminal element
That is the best news I heard all week. Keep all those left wing turds in one place, and don’t let them infiltrate the proud red state of Texas.
What’s left of Portland after their disasterous handling of their city during the riots has no business trying to judge ANYBODY. Texas has asked the question, “After you make a child, what is the Child’s rights”. If you want to have a woman say, “it is my body” they are correct, up to the point of conception. After that, it is THEIR bodies.
Make love responsibly or don’t conceive a child.
Doctors can do abortions when their is a medical need. If there is not a medical need then have the abortion before six weeks. You are killing a human after there is a heart beat. There was a law that you could have an abortion at 3 months but Plan Parent decided to started delivering babies then taking their organs and letting the baby die. Or delivering the baby and putting it in a box, not caring for the baby and just letting it die. There are people that will testify to that. The next thing we will be doing is allowing people to kill each other and NOT holding the killer accountable.
That is communism! Texas does not want them!! Stay there, what makes you think we care.
This is baloney. Who are the private citizens?
Does he mean, doctors who are supposed to “Do No Harm”?
Women can give up the baby for adoption and be better mentally for the rest of their lives.
Having an abortion can HARM a woman who is physically and mentally immature. Some women carry that burden all their lives, wondering….”what if?”.
And many young teens use it and Medicaid as birth control – which wastes money that could be used for cancer treatments. What about those women who are denied cancer treatments because the funds for abortion detract from the total Medicaid budgets?
Abortion should be cut from Medicaid funding. Don’t tell me that these women or teens cannot make a small payment to refund taxpayers.
Of course, they can pay for eating out, for going to concerts and for cell phone service. They can’t say no to sex – which is only uttering one word.
He’s making them all sounds like idiots.
The leaders like Wheeler must not have lived with a teen!
*sound like idiots
If you cut our Medicaid which is taxpayer money so belongs to ALL OF US, it would cut down on the number of abortions. If these women had to go before a board to explain why they can have sex, but not pay for an abortion, it would cut down the number even more.
Smarten up, Ted Wheeler!
Does this mean that Antifa will be banned from traveling to Texas?
Sounds like a fabulous idea. We’ve got too many people like him here and don’t need or want any more. He just needs to stay in his destroyed, burned, ravaged, drug infested, police hating/crime ridden town of Portland. DON’T COME TO TEXAS ! Proof shows you people can’t take care of the city and state you already belong to.
All you history buffs take notice. What was happening her in the United States in the early 1800’s. Were we a divided nation? Was our leaders speaking out both sides of their mouth. What is happening now. You know the answers. What happened in the 1800’s led to the deaths of more than a half million people. What is happening now is going to lead to a lot more than half a million deaths.
