As a person who lives in Portland, I can tell you “burned down” is an incredible exaggeration. Somebody did set a desk on fire, though.
And I’m not sure if people are aware but the capitol is a public building. Meaning, on a normal day anyone can just go in there. There wouldn’t have been the physical intrusion everyone is catching the vapors over if they hadn’t put up barriers and shut down the whole city in the first place. You know, I’m actually starting to understand that whole argument about how preemptive shows of force by the police can actually escalate a situation...
