Bravo Stephen Bravo. Beautiful piece of satire. it was satire right?

My stage bits got stripped by the markdown devils and so my last question came off as if I was actually wondering about the satirical nature of the piece. I recognize satirical brilliance when I see it. Or, wait, do I?

His only crime was wanting to serve the state where he was born? Kristof was born in Illinois, not Oregon. He lived here from middle school through high school.

Holy hell this author is a radicalized nutjob. No different than the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Bill Oreilly. Shame on Portland Mercury. You have lost a lifelong reader. There is no place for this filth in our society. You are fueling the fires of division in our city and our country. Again, shame on you.
