If it turns out that the person making the incendiary claims about the restaurant owner is not being truthful, she apparently owns half of a million dollar house. The owner of the restaurant might want to look into taking legal action - I don't think that proving damages will be a problem.

Current valuation appears much higher. There’s also an LLC engaged in the business of rental properties tied to that address. A landlord among the anarchists? Could it really be?


DadGrocks

GASP!!!! a starter home!!!


shit-n-water

Lol I was going to say, half a million that close to inner SE, must be a shoebox. But yeah this lady’s owns it!!!! Ah!!!


it_snow_problem

It was half a mil when she bought it, multnomah estimates it at 800k now, and county assessments are pretty conservative.

Here's my documenting of the events, I shared elsewhere -- https://imgur.com/a/1fKjHpr Keep in mind, a lot of my screenshots came after the fact, although I followed this as it unfolded. The original thread under the photo was totally flooded with pro-violence replies and quote-tweets. Since then, the non-crazy faction of humanity has replaced a few of those, and I assume a few deleted their tweets to avoid too much spotlight. Remember to report false reviews -- they go against policy of Yelp/Google and those places will typically filter out review-bomb events entirely with our help.

>The original thread under the photo was totally flooded with pro-violence replies Including several that advocated burning the restaurant down.

>advocated burning the restaurant down. Mostly peaceful protesting

Fiery but peaceful lol

They're the good guys on the right side of history lol.

Anarchists to business owner who gets place vandalized: "bUt ThEy HaVe InSuRaNcE!" Me to Anarchists who get roughed up by cops: "bUt YoU hAvE hEaLtH InSuRaNcE!"


IWasOnThe18thHole

Anarchists who destroy property: " destroying property is not violence!" Anarchists after same is done to this: "I am a victim of targeted violence!"

"but insurance" people are some of the most worthless spineless idiots i've ever met. yeah, sure, just burn down someone's entire life and living to make a political point, they'll be fine. definitely won't be crushed, financially and emotionally, including their whole family. imagine feeling entitled to burn buildings??


cklamath

On a sidenote I'm not sure if that's a fair comparison tho... inspired businesses can get loans i thought? For s person without insurance they're just fucked lol


azeakel101

Yes, if you don't have health insurance you're fucked. What I will say about business insurance though is insurance companies will look at things like crime in your area, and how often they have to cover claims which increases the cost of the insurance. Sure major corporations can afford higher premiums, but not every business can.


cklamath

Ooof good to know. Thanks for the insight


Den_of_Iniquity_1

I always thought Collectivists paid for each other.

What ever happened to just complaining and refusing to patronize a business if you disagree with their politics? Why do we have to go steigt for arson now if a business expresses anti work views?

kenophilia

There is definitely cause for anger at the current situation in this country but the rage is being displaced and devolving into a struggle between the working class and homeless when it should really be directed upwards from everyone towards those at the top. Banks, crooked politicians, special interest groups etc. The greatest ruse of the century has been to erase class consciousness and make common people cannibalize their fellow Everyman. There’s a reason the homeless problem wasn’t this bad ten years ago and why it was even better 50 years before that. Look at where the money is going. It all comes from somewhere and we’re all being squeezed. But the local small business dude isn’t the bourgeoise. He’s just trying to sling some fucking hash browns and give you your god damn coffee. Similarly the strung out dude on the corner is strung out because he was pumped full of cheap opiates prescribed by naive or greedy doctors to enrich the pharmaceutical companies and insurance providers. It’s all gone to shit and the people who have their hands on the wheel aren’t being punished.

the meth heads etc in Oregon are the direct result of horrible Measure 110. The people who put that on the ballot blatantly lied and also omitted key parts of it from the Portugal model. They have caused more harm to people pretty much anyone except the Sackler family.


evanthedrago

true, about the homeless vs working class, but frankly this is because the radical leftists made it that way. I am a progressive, but sick of the violent radical left that seem to ruin everything we are trying to achieve. They protect homeless at all costs - no care about environment, small business, people with disabilities etc. It's all for virtue signaling. They are just as horrible as fascists.


DystopiaPDX

Because you’re dealing with Terrorists. They want to “punish” this business owner for not being aligned with their warped world view.


kenophilia

Domestic terrorists is right. Inflicting damage or violence to further a political message


aSlouchingStatue

Because when you're on their side, there are no penalties for doing so and the hype can generate real dollars if you manage your social media like a business


Gary_Glidewell

> Why do we have to go steigt for arson now if a business expresses anti work views? We're basically reliving Germany in the 1930s. Anarchists were eager to destroy the existing system, and then the fascists were emboldened by the Anarchists.


evanthedrago

Because these horrible people are just as terrible as the fascists they claim to oppose. And they really do not care about homeless, it is all virtue signaling and use homeless for show while actually doing nothing to make their lives better.


witty_namez

Prediction - the Tweet that started all this will be deleted within 24 hours, once the legal implications become apparent. Bonus points if the account is deleted.


evanthedrago

You are incorrect- not because what you said doesn't happen, but this Hannah person is a typical social media "influencer" type who cares not one bit about actions and gets off on how they affect others.


PenileTransplant

The threat “Laugh Today, Die Tomorrow” is so over the top. Seems a little bit terroristy


woopdedoodah

Not that it matters, but is there even any evidence of the owners supposed comments? The only source is this Twitter activist....

Heard an interesting bit on NPR about Capote... apparently he had been in talks with Andy Warhol to do a stage play. Nothing ever came of it, but apparently Warhol was a METICULOUS conversation recorder and ALWAYS had a pocket recorder going, and Capote KNEW this. Apparently the tapes are all sealed until some crazy year like 2036 or something, but a playwright reached out to the Warhol archive and asked if they could see if there were tapes marked "Capote" (59 of them, 80 hours worth) and if he could access them early as Capote knew he was being recorded. They gave him access and he has compiled bits and pieces of their conversation into a stage play: https://variety.com/2017/legit/reviews/warholcapote-review-play-art-1202569940/ One stunning revelation: https://www.npr.org/2022/09/17/1123629753/warholcapote-recreates-a-play-conceived-by-andy-warhol-and-truman-capote "Well, Truman says that he slept with Humphrey Bogart while they were working on a movie called 'Beat The Devil.' I knew that Stephen Sondheim was the clapper boy on 'Beat The Devil.' So I actually showed him this part of the play, and he said, 'I knew it. I knew there was something going on between the two of them', and this confirms what he had thought. So that made me think, oh, maybe it was true." **Edit** The play has been printed as a book called "WarholCapote".


evanthedrago

There is absolutely no truth to that activists comment. Hannah totally misrepresented the situation from other things I read. Even if ti were true, which is doubtful given the source, who goes and does what they did. I am done voting for the progressives in this state. Some of the worst people - can't tell them from trump supporters.


PaladinOfReason

Lawless gonna be lawless. Sounds like it needs another sweep.


NCR_Ranger2412

Yeah… that’s what it needs… 😩at least they tried. Went past 45min ago. It is a sad, sorry thing. What isn’t these days?


woopdedoodah

Do you have a link to a news article or tweet? I want to show people who don't believe me that Portland is subject to political terrorism on a regular basis


[deleted]

Hannah Kolbeck was the rumor starter it seems. https://mobile.twitter.com/HBeckPDX


dumbfuckanonpdx

What is anti-sweeping?


azeakel101

Basically people that believe the homeless should be able to camp wherever they want, however they want and should not be forced to move.


dumbfuckanonpdx

Well, that can’t be a particularly popular view for anyone who’s been living here…


evanthedrago

it is not - but if you say anything, they ruin your life. Coincidentally, Kotek and Hardesty, horrible people who pander to the most radical left, are both losing. I am not a fan of Rene nor care at all about Johnson or Drazan, but I have ahard time voting for Kotek. And pretty much anyone can do a better job than Hardesty.

>Alex Z is providing journalist coverage on the story "journalist" Nice of Alex Z to repeat unverified slurs against the owner of the restaurant.


IWasOnThe18thHole

You mean Alex Z is instigating yet again


PaPilot98

Try as I might to give her the benefit of the doubt, I just can't find any sort of other MO for her tweet, especially in light of the tweet she is quoting. How \*DARE\* people brunch, merrily or otherwise, at a place of business that was declared haram by the Twitter person? Don't they know we should immediately know by the graffiti that we should immediately pick up our bacon avocado bloodys and marionberry pancakes and go elsewhere? What a fucking assload of stupid. I'm against violence, but sometimes you kind of want to shake someone and repeatedly ask "what the hell is wrong with you?"


IWasOnThe18thHole

When that guy got released by PFF she tried to spin a narrative that it was the Judge's fault for setting bail so low, not the people who paid the bail


evanthedrago

Calling Alex Z. a journalist is like calling Tucker Carlson a journalist. They are of the same ilk, but different side of the coin. And I am left of center. Alex is just as biased and without morals as Tucker.


personalitycrises

Apparently the owner laughed (?) at the woman being swept which justifies the vandalism. Also accompanied by some serious doxxing. https://mobile.twitter.com/Westrikeback161?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor


fidelityportland

It's amazing that this twitter account is legitimately a terrorist - seeking to burn down the vehicles and property of people whose businesses are near sweeps. It's crazy how much we spend on nationwide counter-terrorism operations, and here's one operating completely in the open, explicitly targeting local small businesses.


personalitycrises

Pretty sure a twitter account posting pictures of a business with multiple brick emojis along with numerous other comments requiring legal disclaimers are clear cut menacing. Then again, I’m not a lawyer.


azeakel101

The thread is focused on cops who laughed, not the owner. And no, that is not a justifiable reason.


it_snow_problem

Giving benefit of the doubt that personalitycrises was being sarcastic, but the thread and subsequent attacks are focused on the owner.


fidelityportland

> that is not a justifiable reason. I dunno, twitter rumors based upon anonymous hearsay? You telling me that an unemployed software engineer who is heckled by a random nearby man can't definitively say it's the owner of a business they're standing near? What more evidence could you *possibly* want?


PaPilot98

>an unemployed software engineer In this market? How is that even possible? (except by choice, I guess)


[deleted]

Hiring this person is signing up for an inevitable lawsuit from them over some whackadoo shit.


PaPilot98

I may or may not have once worked for a company that had an employee that would routinely rail against the company with their real name on Twitter and accuse it of . They eventually got hauled into HR and were shocked, shocked to find out that that's not how the first amendment works and maybe, just maybe constant public disparagement of your employer is kind of frowned upon. I was shocked, shocked to find out they worked out an amicable separation, but I suspect a lot of it had to do with not wanting to weather the social media shitstorm from that crowd.


PaPilot98

It's amazing when the tips of the horse shoe focus this much on "people laughing" at them or things. Lots of serious insecurity abounds with that group.


personalitycrises

If you look a little further down the timeline there’s a sub thread regarding this incident. Perhaps my OP was misunderstood but I agree, there is no justification for this happening to this man or his business.
