In late March, Walmart is closing the last two locations it has in Portland, Oregon.
The company’s official line about the closings is that it has to do with store performances, customer needs, and other corporate speak.
Does anyone doubt that this probably has a lot to do with theft? Portland is a hotbed of leftism, and for the last few years, shoplifting has become a norm for the left.
FOX 12 in Oregon reports:
All Portland Walmart stores to permanently close in late March
The last two Walmart stores within Portland’s city limits will close in late March, the company announced.

No surprise here. Big Box stores leave when their merchandise is stolen from them. Food deserts arise. Again no surprise.

Nobody can afford to stay in business for long if their merchandise keeps getting stolen. The double whammy is that decent people who actually pay for things wont go to such a place because it is full of feral animals.
Wal mart is not the welfare office. They must make a profit to stay open. Too bad for the ghetto dwellers.

It's time to start publicly equating, in all media, leftism, Democrats, with criminal behavior... It's TRUE, the Democrat Party is supported primarily by criminals and parasites. If we had an honest mainstream media, we'd find out how much money from the Sinaloa Cartel sent to Biden's campaign.

The politicians and the street criminals act together to cause this. The criminals do the stealing, and the politicians let the criminals back out on the streets after they are caught. It’s a heck of a deal for the criminals, and it ensures more criminals to come.

Thats all right, Progressive's don't like Walmart anyway. Let them pay double at the Party approved retailer.

They can lay the blame on the idiots running Portland. Perhaps the voters might wake up after this and vote out those posers and get some real leaders who want to make it a safe place to work and live.

Poverty doesn't cause crime.
Crime causes poverty.
So a good, low-priced merchandise store is denied people who otherwise might need it. Blame the criminal. Not the capitalist.

This is what a wasteland looks like.
Portland used to be prosperous and thriving.
Look at it now.
Want to see Communism in action?
Look at Portland.
All in the name of equality.
Equality is the lowest common denominator.
In this case the lowest common denominator is the thieve and thug.
This is what dumbing down does.

Okay. I was fretting about Wally World closing stores, but since it is in Portland Oregon, no biggy. What happened? Did the Clintons get kicked off the board?

According to the media, Black advocates in California have figured out how to keep the Black “communities” from perpetuating mass shoplifting from grocery and liquor stores, all the government has to do is pay Black population individuals a sum of taxpayers money up to a million dollars each in “reparations” for the 150 years past slavery era that took place not in California but in the old South that was terminated by the Civil War back in the 1860s. If that proposal ever becomes reality, essentially what will happen is White people who never owned slaves would be forced to pay large amounts of money by way of government taxes to Black people who never were slaves. When those reparations proposals never come to fruition, the leftist and socialist Democrats during the run up to future elections will simply tell low information Black “communities” that the wimpy Republicans and especially Trump stopped them being paid reparations money. In that respect Biden will swing into action warning those “communities” that if they vote for Republicans, that those Republicans, once elected, “will put them back in chains” as Biden has done before in the past.

I read Safeway is the go-to-store but its three times the price. That's the cost of shoplifting deal with it or stop voting for Democrats.

Walmart has gone woke lately - so they're putting themselves out of business, because punishing crime is racist. F Walmart!

This makes Oregon politicians giddy with happiness because driving capitalists out of Portland is now a reachable goal.

All businesses have to meet a bottom line. When local authorities excuse mass shoplifting and refuse to prosecute theft, stores have little option but to cut their losses and leave the area.
