    Clone of Portland. It can be saved, but that would mean no dems, a closed border and lots of criminals in jail and mentally ill in institutions. We don't have that will. The local TV stations just put on the local politicians and frustrated business owner and they all just parrot leftard talking points about "collaboration", "new solutions", "community involvement", "social outreach" etc. The actual solutions are still pretty much verboten in the public square. So, they just put out more pigeon feed and then are shocked that there are more pigeons.

    Solution in Portlandia: Metro (the regional government) to build “affordable housing”. Voters approved it.

    How many years will it take to set up the bureaucracy?

    Why are you comparing downtown Seattle to small town Oregon? Yeah, they are bums and junkies and criminals in downtown Seattle but they're way smarter than those stuuuuuupid Oregon bums and junkies.

    This is why we left. We have it some time to see if people would wake the fuck up. When it became clear that people weren’t just ok with this shit, but also wanted more of it, we were gone.

    Good luck.

    I remember back in the day there were some hippies that lived by the Willamette River in Eugene, I thought it looked fun, but back then at least they kept it clean... thse jackasses trash the place... just because you are homeless doesn't mean you need to trash your area...

    Driving into PDX tonight on I-5 saw this sign: “posted no trespassing” on a chain link gate to a poor man's castle built on the hillside between the freeway and sound wall. Irony.

    Portland is a GD shithole. And getting worse by the month. F’n transients have sunk a pier and sailboat on the PDX side of the Columbia at Jantzen. The entire bank down to the river looks like a city dump.

    Portland’s way of saying welcome to Oregon. People with pride in the city and state should be embarrassed. But Brown and Wheeler are poor fucking excuses for leaders so nothing is expected of them.

    New bureaucrats will be part of PERS. Factor in the nos.

    Apparently, some of the money will trickle down to actually building some “affordable housing”.

    The worst part is that he didn’t really capture it. You can’t see it all with the camera pointing straight ahead. That drive camera view was generous.

    I’ve been recently and it’s appreciably worse than what he showed. All he had to do is come down from the north and take the Stewart Street exit and that would have told the story.

    It’s a disaster.

    I don’t have the answers. Institution capacity seems like a start.

    KOIN TV in PDX did a very long series asking if Portland could be saved. Just to recap, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco and LA are all DIM controlled and have been for a long time. Things like this take time to finally reach a breaking point. This didn't just happen because of COVID. All of the BidenBros should be ashamed of the people they support but they're not. They hate America and their own cities.

    Trump's and the pavement's fault.

    It really isn't that tough, it just takes a will that the left who controls these cities and states do not have.

    Enforce the fucking law. You can't camp in public. Open air drug sales and use should be hammered. Enforce your property crime laws. Everyone of these homeless camps is filled with stolen property. Put people in jail when they violate the law. Put people into mental institutions. Stop making it easier for people to be junkies who live on the streets. Stop handing out cash, "free" needles and meth pipes and camping gear.

    Put an expectation of a bare minimum standard of behavior and respect for the social order on everyone and impose that standard.
    So you're advocating for shutting down a cottage industry that you know some of these pols have a financial stake in? Fat chance. Corruption knows no bounds.

    Agreed, the pols have a financial stake in it but the general public does not. Educate people to understand the current system isn't helping anyone other than the pols and homeless industrial complex.

    I don't think Portland voters give a shit that their city is crap. As long as their local grocery store is still safe and they can hop into Starbuck's without getting assaulted, they're apparently good. My wife was talking with a coworker from Portland that has seen her neighborhood become a nightmare of fucking homeless wandering through. Gangs have returned, gunfire where it never was before.

    They had some zoom meeting with some org. that was working to "help" the homeless in their area. When one neighbor complained, the moderator of the meeting called them out for being "privileged" because they had a home. That's how much these orgs actually care about the impact that their "work" is having on neighborhoods. It's all about the homeless and nothing about the uncontrolled bad that they bring to the surrounding areas they squat on.

    Like most city elections it's about turn out and who turns out to vote. The homeless industrial complex and the government employee unions have no problem turning out their voters but I still can't believe that a majority of Seattle and Portland residents supports what's happening to their cities.
