Shootings in Portland, Oregon, nearly tripled over the summer after Mayor Ted Wheeler disbanded the city’s police gun crimes unit, according to new police data. The city recorded 223 shootings in July and August, up from 77 over the same period in 2019. And a little more than halfway through September the city already had 64 shootings, or double the shootings from the same month last year. The numbers were released last week. On Monday the federal Justice Department declared Portland and two other cities, Seattle and New York, to be “Anarchy Jurisdictions.”(Snip) The city has faced near-nightly mayhem since late May,

Things will get a lot worse in portland before they get better. The "prosecutors" turning the arrested peaceful rioters, looters, and murderers without prosecuting them for felonies means that those known criminals will be able to take their booty gained in the illegal activities and buy guns and firearms legally. With no felony convictions, they can buy all the guns they want legally, paid for by their victims.

That is so weird, almost seems like the police unit was put there for a reason and was doing their jobs?

These morons are starting to discover that there are a LOT of things that the police are doing which actually DO prevent crime.
Elect morons, get moronic outcomes.
Zero sympathy. Perhaps a couple of dozen folks might not vote Dem this November? Nah, not a chance. Their brains are so warped that they will blame this on Trump and the conservative elves.

Not too many years ago, I thought that Oregon was a nice place to live. You cannot imagine my shock at seeing how, in a place where crime should barely exist, tranquility has been turned into turmoil by white people advocating for BLM and Antifa in an almost wholly homogenous white society! Over 70%! And the people who are doing it-nothing but a pack of FREAKS and little kids who are so bored they get their kicks playing revolutionaries. If you want to know how fast America can be destroyed by radical Left, look no further than Portland Oregon.

I bet there’s $0.00 tourist dollars in Portland and Seattle right now. That may be true within a fifty-mile radius of either place. (Only a slight exaggeration).

The DA's office is deeply in bed with the Antifa/BLM rioters. The DA even admitted he is buddies with these activists. Time to shut the money off, and time to send the Feds in to give them an investigation of the kind that should have started long ago.

I start with the understanding that, although they seem insane to us, they intend the outcome of their action. They are part and parcel with the riots, standing down the police, taking away our rights, stealing the reins of power, confiscating our means of defense, letting the criminals lose to cause more harm, bankrupting our cities and states, all of it. This not about racism, or building a better society, this is about good vs evil this is communism on the march. This is going on in over 60 countries, all inhabitable continents, and is spread across our country with over a hundred of of our cities. Our leaders are failing us, too afraid to say anything. They huddle in our government offices wishing for it to all go away. Hoping that if they can just wait it out all will go away and return to normal. It won't. Even if President Trump wins re-election. These devils are here to stay. If not this election then the next, they have made their declaration and they intent to win. While we ponder the point they are taking action and growing stronger. If they win, whenever the win, the police and the military will be complacent and do as they are told or they will be kicked to the curb with the losers. We have allowed this to happen. We kn ow the universities have been taken over but we still send our kids there. They have taken over the public schools, they have brought our enemies in by the thousands and scattered them all over the country. We have 20 mil or more invaders. They brought them here. It was their army to help tear down the walls. They bankrupted the hospital, drove social programs into a monsters that we cannot afford and is dragging us under. They allowed every filthy, trashy, disgusting garbage into our school, our entertainment, our lives, our culture. They hammer out fear porn night and day. The give us just what they want us to know. Many of our church leaders failed to lead us because they would lose the tax benefits. Of course, not all of them and not just for that reason alone but look at the overall state of affairs with our churches. They have lost their way. They enemy has a battle plan and they are using it. This isn't the dems, although they are an active part of it, this is going on world-wide.
This is not new to history. It has happened repeatedly throughout history. It just hasn't happened lately. I read the book. The thing is that in our country we have no one to blame but WTP. We can turn back and maybe win the fight and defeat this sickness. Maybe we went to far and we will lose, but that will depend on whether enough of the good people learn the truth. The media controls the message.
