Portland resident rem em bered that
“ During the Iran hostage affair, Leba

(because) people couldn’t tell — or
bother to find out — the different
betw een A rabs and Iranians. N ever
mind that Iranians who came to United
States to escape the political regim e
had nothing to do with it anyw ay,”
she said. “People feeling pow erless
lash out thoughtlessly.”
In response to questions about
fear o f further reprisals. M ay o r Sam
A dam s said, “ I trust in P o rtlan d ers’
sense o f fairness; that bad actions
by one m em b er o f any group does
not and should not be g eneralized

m em bers o f that sam e group. O th er
w ise, as part o f the biggest racial
group in Portland, European-A m eri
cans, producing m any crim es daily,
w ould be in deep tro u b le.”
He added that City C om m issioner
