I'm having a heck of a time getting a response from the paper. Let me give it one more day and then I may ask for some help calling shelters etc... in the Portland area.

Are they just not responding or are they giving you the run around? I'll help wherever I can with making calls. Please let me know.


No run around ... just difficult finding the right person with the right information.

Hold off on phone calls to the paper for now. Let me see what they can come back to me with will report back.

Just spoke to a very sweet woman at the paper. She's going to try and chase this information down. She mentioned to me that the paper had received several calls about DE over the past couple of weeks so hopefully he's at least found a place to sleep.

Thanks again for all of the offers to help Derrick.

I'll update as soon as I have more information.

Thank you so very much for taking the time to spearhead this.

This moment of combined cruelty and cluelessness is brought to you by the makers of "f*** off, bc."



And a "conservative" comes out swinging against another conservative who simply spoke the truth (there are a number of public and private entities that could help Evanson get on his feet).

Or, could it just be that Derrick is a fellow anti-Mormon?

Part of the tribe, so to speak?

Hi Droopy,

I'm pretty confident were you to ever find yourself in need, help would come from some very unexpected places.

Regardless of our differences we all have to have each other's backs from time to time.

Darricks chemical imbalance and the fact that he must have been off his medications for a while prevents him from seeking that sort of help on his own. He needs a friend to help him with that.

Maybe you could find a different thread to argue your silly points. I'd be happy to start one for you to attack, if you would like. Maybe we could title it "Droopy is a heartless jerk"?

On the other hand, maybe you could contibute to the cause and feel proud of yourself for acting like a human being. Something you probably haven't felt for a very long time.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

and aren't you opposed to the public ones?
In fact, I bet most of the private ones would get your scorn too since they would be unlikely to pass your political litmus tests.
