120. Just to get in one more anecdotal lick....

it was in North Carolina, the state touted by this poster, that I, as a young white man dating a black woman, was chased in my car and nearly caught by members of the KKK. This was in 1968. Now I realize that times have changed, but to so disparage Oregon and our "phony liberals" while holding her (or his...the profile doesn't match the name) state up as a bastion of honest acknowledgement of racial issues simply doesn't feel or smell right to me.
