If any city in the nation represents the radical left, it is Portland, Oregon. If you think about many of the disturbing stories leaking out about the violence at OWS, many have taken place in the lovely city of Portland.
I guess we should not be surprised that OWS protesters were invited into a Portland classroom. Hmmm, I can't help but wonder how may Tea Partiers were invited to Portland schools. Not! We all know that Tea Partiers are shunned by the union-controlled public schools.

“We asked the class what they thought was wrong, and they all raised their hands,” she says, noting that one girl told the panel as they left, “they don’t want you to plant the seeds of change in our society. They don’t want you to plant those seeds.”'
