What else would you expect from the "Left" Coast?
You know, there are websites out there where you can write up the abuse and humiliation you had to endure. The bigger the pile, the greater the weight.
The Red and Black Cafe at 400 S.E. 12th Avenue, Portland, Oregon. The co-owner's name was John Langley.
sorry, i was talking about this:

i wish that i had a cafe, so i could kick out every cop that is OCing. except i would like to do it with a gun on my own hip.
is it legal to allow some people to OC and not others? as a private property owner, do you legally have to have the same rules for everyone or can you randomly tell people they cannot carry in your business? would this open you up to lawsuits for discrimination?
yes, i'm all over it, i am a big advocate for the abolition of the TSA. and my incident was in august of 2010 so i had no warning, it hadn't hit the media yet that people were being groped. i would have taken the option they offered of turning around and walking out of "their" checkpoint, but i was on my honeymoon...
when i stood up for myself and politely got in the agent and supervisors faces, my wife was worried for a minute we wouldn't be flying at all. she supports me though and knows that we will not fly again until the TSA is abolished. i will not subject myself, my beautiful wife and daughter to such indignities.
That story seems more fiction than fact, from the attempts to verify it I tried. Found this, which calls it into serious question:

Also, searching on the name of the person reported there and other relevant search terms pulls up nothing giving credibility.
Do you have any info verifying this story?

True, but you're still too close to Californicated for my taste.This might be the Left coast, but in Oregon you can own fully automatic rifles and silencers!
