Earlier quoted context omitted.
But for 10 years in downtown Portland, OR, I have lived in rural towns my entire forty-five years. I have also travelled extensively through rural PNW towns with my schooling and work. This does not at all match my experience.
Rural PNW towns not impacted by insane levels of brown/white? Dude, come on. Mexi's (fentanyl pills) are killing so many people right now. Driving so many young girls prostituting themselves. It is horrible. You lived in rural America and didn't experience families whose only source of meat was what they hunted? Dude, come on. Or families living in ancient trailer homes/campers? As for the camps, these places aren't…
I'd like to point out that blue states like NY are making it harder and harder for rural families to support themselves by hunting (legally) through firearm restriction laws that make sense downstate, but no sense upstate.
