OREGON CITIES EYE BANS ON PET STORES, DIESEL, NATURAL GAS
Oregon Catalyst ^ | August 10, 2022 | Staff

Oregon is in a banning mood.

The City of Bend this week is considering banning pet stores from selling cats, dogs and rabbits. Oddly, there is no store in Bend that actually sells cats, dogs and rabbits, so this ban would stop any store in the future from considering it. Such a ban could have the unintended consequence of reducing oversight of known sellers, while driving up the price of private sellers in the private unregulated market.

The City of Eugene has been debating banning natural gas from being installed in most new homes being constructed. Expect energy prices to go higher.

Portland is debating banning the sale of diesel fuel in fueling stations and instead mandate that they sell diesel fuel made by vegetable oil and animal fat. Portland would be the first city in the nation to do so. Previously, Portland banned sparklers and fireworks to combat climate change.

These bans reflect that Oregon is out of ideas … and that a handful of people are obsessed with abolition and banning their way to a new paradise.

— Don’t forget last year when the politicians tried to ban bacon from hospitals and hospices.

I have a sister who lives in the Seattle area, but don’t know too much personally. You’re probably fine if you’re in a good neighborhood & not out after dark. Some people live all their lives in the big cities & nothing ever happens to them. You never know when you are this night’s “winner.”

Just check the antifa calendar in advance to see if any riots are scheduled.

Clothing places you might visit are the Filson factory store, and for some counterculture threads, check out the Utilikilts showroom (the one with no changing room, because you don’t need one).

I don’t care who you are, that’s funny.

They should just ban diesel vehicles from Portland. That would be fun to watch.

The inmates are running the asylum

Uhhhh...... according to NY Governor Kathy Hochul, those are "incarcerated persons". You should rephrase your post.

Not to mention that heat pumps heat with warm not hot air.
So you need to move a LOT of air.

Western Oregon is fine. The beaches are great. Stay out of the north end of the Willamette Valley, and you’re good.

Some time back, a guy I know took his daughter into a pet store to buy a rabbit. The way she was prodding it caused the pet store employee to ask what she was doing. She said she was seeing if it was big enough to eat. They took the rabbit away and called the other pet stores in town to warn them.

“Lotsa CaliWokeTards been movin to Bend for some time now

The three main factors destroying Oregon are:

1) The education sector
2) The one-sided media
3) Immigration from ‘Alta California’

In 1960 Nixon beat JFK in Multnomah County, which was the last time a Republican won the County where Portland is located.

As Reagan left office in 1989 the kooks & crazies took over, growing their nefarious left wing margins with each election.

In the 2016 & 2020 Presidential Elections, the Multnomah nutjobs voted 73% & 79% for the democrat to 17% for the Republican. Not Washington DC bad but pretty damn bad.

Meanwhile, Antifa burned down the city downtown.

“all that human American fat”

That will be disappearing on it’s own real soon...as soon as they ban meat, then pastries, then bread, then ice cream, then soda. You know they are just dying to ban everything they think is “bad” for you.

Kennels R Us

We sell dog kennels. Each comes with a dog of your choice.

We don’t sell dogs, only kennels. We give the dogs away.

There’s a movement in eastern Oregon to secede and join Idaho.
