Many glowing orbs were flying over Oregon this weekend on the 4th. Many people are swearing that they are not Chinese lanterns, but the TV news says otherwise. Often trying to impose their way of thinking onto the public...basic mind manipulation. Whatever these glowing orbs are there is one thing for sure...a lot of people are coming forward saying they were not lanterns and asking what are these glowing orbs? We can listen to the opinions of those who were not there and did not see it, or we can take the intelligent approach and listen to the actual eyewitnesses who were there. You choose. SCW

Below the news article one person "Teesabell" comments: "I was there with my husband who pointed out the reddish light hovering in the sky just before the fireworks started.  It was NOT a lantern and it was no where from Kelso!  We were facing the southwest towards Lake Oswego.  Funny how people try to downplay this as a lantern or gas from a weather balloon.  It did hover for quite a while and all sitting around us commented about it and watched it hover before it disappeared very quickly.  Great video shot Kyle!  This is exactly what we saw sitting on the Portland Spirit."
