Portland store shuts down, posts blistering note on front door slamming rampant crime: 'city is in peril'

[Polishprince]

Trump mocked their grievances and tried to get football players fired.

So what?

That isn't the cause of Portland Oregon's ongoing woes and wave of Lawlessness.

 

[Polishprince]

Trump could have addressed their grievances about police brutality instead of mocking them.

The President of the United States doesn't control local police departments. They are under the control of city governments.

 

[surada]

Crime on the streets of Portland is controlled by the despicable Democrat city and county leadership you nitwit.

You already said it only got bad in 2016.

So what?

That isn't the cause of Portland Oregon's ongoing woes and wave of Lawlessness.

You guys said Portland turned into a shit hole in 2016.

How can you have police brutality when all they do is stand and watch

 

[surada]

The President of the United States doesn't control local police departments. They are under the control of city governments.

You've forgotten Trump's speeches to the Boy Scouts of America and the National convention for law enforcement.

 

[Papageorgio]

Trump was president in 2020.

We remember, the mayor of Portland and the governor of Oregon fought Trump when he tried to come in and restore order, so the feds had to leave. States rights issue, dumb play on the governor and mayor’s part.

WTF does that have to do with anything?

Portland store shuts down, posts blistering note on front door slamming rampant crime: 'City is in peril'

Portland, Oregon, clothing store Rains PDX shut down after facing more than a dozen break-ins and covering expensive repairs, according to a note posted the store's front door.

A Portland, Oregon, clothing shop permanently shut down this month after facing a string of break-ins that has left the store financially gutted, according to a note posted to the front of the store.


Thefts have plagued retail chains nationwide in recent years. The National Retail Federation conducted a survey that found organized retail crime increased by 26.5% in 2021, resulting in a multi-billion dollar issue for businesses.

Violent crime in Portland has skyrocketed over the last few years. A recent study found it rose most precipitously in 2020 when the city saw near-nightly protests and riots over the death of George Floyd.
The city saw a 58% increase in homicides in 2020 compared to the year prior, and 2021 notched a 54% increase in homicides compared to the already violent and bloody 2020. The number of homicides in 2021 was a 238% increase from the numbers recorded in 2018.
Them Dems sure know how ruin a city

Excellent! We need a first hand example of the kind of 'society' and 'civilization' doper commies, doper faggots, doper Democrats, and doper 'libertarians' will spread to the entire country, now that the rightwingers, moderates and conservatives have chosen to hide under their beds and snivel. It's still far better than voters deserve, but give it time, lol

shit flows downhill, not up.

that needs to be addressed at a local level first.

They're saying Portland's problems began 6 years ago.

Portland's city and state government were ruled by Leftards.

President Trump offered liberal cities aid to fight Liberal Terror gangs, but they refused.

They in fact deliberately encouraged the rioters and burnings of police stations and Federal buildings. Portland's police stood down, as did Seattle's and Minneapolis's, and of course SF, LA, and Ne York have been standing down for decades; their crime rates are all vastly under-reported because nobody bothers reporting them any more. Recent article on Portland's citizen having to form their own groups to hunt down stolen cars was out last week.

Portland car thefts soar as volunteers and victims band together to track down missing vehicles

PDX Stolen Cars founder Titan Crawford joined 'Fox & Friends' on Monday to share how his group is stepping up to help reunite people with their stolen vehicles.

Here locally the police quit bothering to investigate car stolen from the poor and working class decades ago, but if you're the Mayor and had your expensive Lincolns are other high dollar vehicles stolen, then they're all over it.

Both lauded violence.

 

[Canon Shooter]

Since Trump became president 6 years ago???

Hey, Zippy, Trump has, nor had, anything to do with the current shitty state that Portland finds itself in...

 

[whitehall]

Left leaning big city district attorneys are pretty much in agreement that they will not prosecute shoplifting but they will prosecute a store owner for assault (and maybe a hate crime) if he tries to stop a shop lifter. What do you think will happen when store owners can't protect their property?

 

[Auld Phart]

They're saying Portland's problems began 6 years ago.

and you blame Trump?

Both lauded violence.

One thing is glaringly obvious: You have refused to put the blame for this onto Wheeler, where it rightly belongs.

You'll never do that...

 

[Polishprince]

Both lauded violence.

Actually President Trump has always been against violence.

When libs came to his rallies to try and start violence, he encouraged the Americans in attendance to combat it by all means necessary.

 

[jknowgood]

Trump was president in 2020.

Trump also tried to send the national guard in to stop it. But liberal leaders refused it. Good try though, this is democrat polies at work 100%.

 

[jknowgood]

Trump could have addressed their grievances about police brutality instead of mocking them.

They wouldn't give Trump the time of day. Democrats own this 100%.

So now you're a prophet.

It sure must be nice to be a Stalinist.

The answer to every ill in the world whether real or imaginary is always "Trump".
