Target says it will close nine stores in major cities, citing violence and theft

If California wants to get serious about reducing retail theft, repealing Prop 47 would be a good starting point.
 
Yep, you're right. Absolutely. You, a stranger on the internet, non-Portlander, with your PhD in Google, have solved the mystery of why Portland has become such a shit hole. Not the opioid crisis, not the broken county government, not the worthless DA, not even the unique alchemy of our ethos that has brought us to this moment. Thank you for google-ing & solving everything. I'm sure the citizen will be relieved. That crack house next to my mother in law will surely now just *poof* dissappear! You should run for mayor.
The Lit *Progressive Marxist Atheist* would have you believe Christians are to blame for what ails Portland. 😎
 
You never even attempted to contribute, you went straight to the insultive via the mechanism of ascription.

You purposely went personal rather than present your own thoughts.

You purposely "misinterpreted" what was posted.

You are a political putz.

A useful tool.

It's called "The Moron Method."

More insults instead of answering the question.
 
LO-fucking-L

You never answer ANYTHING! Who are you to fucking demand "answers..."
You’ve been on the board less than a year, right? How would you know?

I’ve answered plenty.

This issue here is that you’ve avoiding answering a simple question and have resorted to insults instead of adding to the conversation.
 
*chuckle*

Fucking clueless...

You don't ever answer anything. Your MO is to attack the poster. PERIOD.

Everyone is to blame for the issues in Portland. There is no single person/group to point a finger to

It was meant as sarcasm. But you have to ask yourself what changed after 2019? Crime has increased exponentially due to progressive policies. No one will forget the summer of love which was a total abdication of the law. A mayor turned his back on law abiding citizens and now the Ferguson effect is well entrenched in Portland’s political culture. Don’t blame law abiding citizens for what ails Portland blame the progressive leadership and their *I know what’s better for you *condescending attitude . I do blame citizens for voting these idiots into office but they do have a chance in the near future to right the ship. Portland can regain its stature as a west coast jewel.

What specific policies? Provide specific evidence that the policies are what cause the issue.

You have google, I'm sure you can find them. I've also sited a source of a grass roots effort to clean up the city & it's corruption.
Name calling doesn't help.

We've forgotten how to have civil discourse. I know most people would laugh to think that there would be a politics board on a site such as this. However, I have found This place to be full of some of the nicest people on the internet. But once you hit the political board everyone is named calling and finger pointing. Come on guys, Where's the charming, jovial attitude you have when you slide into my DM's with a dick picks? Surely you can bring that energy here!

You suck at writing sarcasm.

If you look at the crime statistics, you'll notice crime was on the rise before 2019. In fact crime has been on the rise in Portland since the 1980's. Maybe it's all Reagan's fault??
Crime has increased exponentially due to progressive policies.
Crime has increased as Portland's population has increased...*gasp* imagine that more people equals more crime....
