Portland airport stripper wants to stand trial
Associated Press | Posted: Wednesday, May 2, 2012 1:31 pm | Loading…
A Portland man who took off his clothes to protest airport security measures is insisting on a trial.
In court Wednesday, 49-year-old John Brennan turned down the option of treating the misdemeanor charge of public indecency like a citation, likely resulting in community service and a letter of apology. His lawyer called that “the easy way out.”
Instead, The Oregonian reports (http://bit.ly/IYmda2), Brennan is likely to be tried next month if the district attorney’s office presses forward.
Brennan was pulled aside April 17 at Portland International Airport after going through the metal detector and a pat-down. He stripped to exercise his right to free speech.
The Oregon Court of Appeals has ruled that naked protests can be protected, but each act has to be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Figure in jet-setting band of ‘creepers’ pleads guilty in Portland’s federal court
Published: Tuesday, May 01, 2012, 11:56 AM     Updated: Tuesday, May 01, 2012, 1:33 PM
A key figure in a jet-setting band of identity thieves pleaded guilty to bank fraud on Tuesday before U.S. District Judge Michael W. Mosman in Portland.
Gregory Michael Zimmerman, 36, potentially faces a long prison term for his role in a crew suspected of working as “creepers” — identity thieves who steal checks, credit card numbers and identification in burglaries and turn them into cash.
The highly mobile group moved through such glitzy cities as Las Vegas and Beverly Hills, but are suspected of plotting scores at a Portland strip club. They cashed out proceeds at Spirit Mountain Casino, according to government court papers.

I think people’s perception regarding our change has something to do with our look. If you look at Shallow Life, people didn’t understand the way we were dressed – they were costumes. They were meant to make fun of the ‘shallow life.’ I was dressed up like a ‘pop princess’ and Andrea (Ferro) was dressed up like a ‘hip-hop pimp.’ People would come up to us and say, “You guys changed your look?!” I said, “What the fuck?! You think we’re really going to be dressed up like that?! Didn’t you see that we even enhanced my boobs on the photos just to make fun of this fake world?!” I bet you if we would have gone with the typical black look people wouldn’t have said a thing. That’s frustrating because you have to go with the most obvious choice, the more bland choice, so people will get it.

PORTLAND, Ore.—The Portland Loo might be the most loved public toilet—not that there’s much competition.
A lack of adequate public restrooms is an old complaint in cities across America. The bathrooms, when you can find one, are often filthy and smelly, and a magnet for drug users and vandals. Businesses such as McDonald’s and Starbucks often serve as the restroom of last resort.
Big cities from New York to San Francisco have bought high-tech, self-cleaning automatic toilets, with mixed results. In one high-profile failure, Seattle installed five such toilets in 2004—at a cost of $5 million—only to sell them on eBay four years later because of problems with drug use and prostitution.

Felon Who Fled Portland Says He’s Cleaned Up His Act
Kristian Foden-Vencil | April 13, 2012 4:50 p.m. | Updated: April 13, 2012 5:05 p.m. | Portland, OR
A felon who fled Portland 13 years ago rather than face charges of possessing a fire arm says he’s about to turn himself in.
Timothy McNair is 52. When he lived in Portland, he says he broke the law.
“I used to be a thief. I used to be a dope dealer. I used to be a pimp. I used to be thug, a burglar. When I left from here, I left all that behind me and decided to come back and make it right with the city of Portland and the youth in the community,” McNair says.
McNair says he’s had a call from God to help young people, so he’ll turn himself in as part of Project Clean Slate.>/p>
