Portland's police department has warned residents of the woke but crime-ravaged Oregon city to expect delays in cops answering all but the most serious 911 calls. On Monday, Portland Police were only responding to priority 1 and priority 2 calls—codes that refer to incidents that are life-threatening or with a potential for physical injury, as well as major property crimes.(Snip)Meanwhile, 55 officers retired and another 29 left the department, leaving 835 sworn members on the force amid nationwide calls to defund police that were heard especially loud in Portland last year. The city is famed as America's most woke, and is renowned as a hotbed of Antifa

Actually, all this nonsense will finally end when all the police stand down and WE THE PEOPLE finally take care of the problem ourselves. Our "rules of engagement" will be quite different than what our police have had to endure.

Tell me quick! What is considered serious enough to be a Code 1 or 2 level, since rise, rape and rebellion aren't considered emergencies?

#1, taking care of the problem has to include the politicians, bureaucrats and so-called citizens (media) who caused the problem, or afterwards the cycle will start to repeat, yet again. Those who are ignorant of history are doomed to repeat it - said someone famous in the past

Next up - - the name "Portland" will be changed to "Antifaville" - - to more closely represent its residents' core beliefs.

Indicative of Root Causes..
"Pictured are officers using chemical irritants and crowd control munitions to disperse protesters in September of 2020"
The photo actually shows the line of cops being bombarded/mortared with commercial grade explosive fireworks.

City of Roses. Unfortunately, now they’re just used to decorate coffins.

Portland is getting what its people want. Those opposed can leave.

Portland: A display of liberal utopia. People need to notice--mostly by reading these reports in a UK media source, not to be noticed by the US liberal media.

Places like Portland have only themselves to blame.
My suggestion is to arm up, shoot first and don't cal the unfunded police. Have communities hire someone to dump the bodies in the river or out in the wilderness.
If you dont have a policeforce, defend yourselves Wild West style.

Elect anti-police, pro-criminal folks to mayor and every office below that and this is what you were voting for.
Enjoy.
My sympathy meter didn't flicker.

Portland used to be one of my favorite cities to visit. No.more. A lot of other potential visitors have to be feeling the same way.

I think the citizens of Portland came to the conclusion that they were on their own years ago.

If you want the police in a hurry in Portland, just say you just shot a thief and the guy is laying there gasping.

The Asheville NC police dept announced the same 911 limitations months ago. They mirror Portland in so many ways...Commie city council and mayor, defunded the police, lots of police quit, the rise of local Antifa and BLM, a new, surging homeless problem, a sharp increase in crime and murders. After 22 years in Asheville, it is going downhill quickly.
