Transportation Protesting in Portland & Fort Worth

Now this is a good example of how different things are in the Northwest, as in Seattle and Portland, as compared to Dallas and Fort Worth.

First off, you have a local Portland TV news show with a mountain in the background. You do not have mountains in the background of Dallas/Fort Worth local TV news shows.

Second off, you don't have stories in the local D/FW market showing a local transportation device such as that being used in Portland, because these type elevated transportation devices do not exist in the Dallas/Fort Worth zone. Well, there is a sort of facsimile of this type transportation device, in a very limited way, at the State Fair of Texas, in Dallas.

Third off, and this is the biggest difference, you would never see, I do not think, a Dallas/Fort Worth Texan type protesting something, like the Portland transportation device, in the rather direct manner, that this Portland man chose.
