pretty much if they are being "transferred" to portland this means that they were denied access to food, water, and any basic needs foror so days, shot at, and possibly raped. these are the same people that had miscarraiges while waiting in line for a bus and tended to it the best way that they could so that they wouldn't lose their place in line. they are seperated from their friends, family, and everything they know. they have absolutly nothing. and also, they don't want to be in portland. they are there because they have no other option. you are dealing with portland's shitty economy by choice. however, you really shouldn't worry about them. it's likely that no more than x-x will show up. that's what philly got and people have actually heard of philly. however, you should worry about the massive influx of new orleans hipster in portland. it seems that everyone i know is in the process of or has moved to portland. they're coming freshly, well as much as having excellent hair will allow, bathed from their parent's house with whatever they left new orleans with, food stamps, and xk and first and last month's rent from fema. and they're in a hurry to find a job and a place to live before the pity runs out. and fyi, the general concensus is that it, the pity, will run out in about a month. if you're gonna hate on someone, hate on them. they're total asshats anyway. but don't hate on anyone who's being transferred there. they've been through more than anyone can be expected to deal with already. and they'd be more than happy to take you in and feed you dinner if you so much as smiled at them. because rumor is that y'all don't do that. you know, smile at people and speak to them even though you don't know them. and it may seem like these people are being given the upper hand, but if they are, it's for the first time in their lives. if you're lucky you might learn something about culture. and if you're really lucky you might learn something about cooking and how it's supposed to be d but more than likely y'all won't get more than a handful of "transfers" so i really really wouldn't worry about it.
