She said her and her friends (four 16 year old girls) had to walk to the parking garage a few blocks from the stadium. She is a pretty street smart kid thanks to my training. No ANTIFA, just some drunk soccer fans.

It was almost certainly ANTIFA in disguise as drunk soccer fans.

Those places have issues but nothing close to looking like downtown PDX. Downtown has parts - parts- that look 3rd world. It’s embarrassing just driving on the freeway and seeing what’s happening. Now, yes, there are tents/camps all over now- Lake Oswego off the Haines St exit, Capitol exit, Terwilleger, and so on. We need to build housing ASAP or take over abandoned buildings and create housing like NOW. We need mental health facilities NOW. I’m fucking livid at our leadership. They all should be fired and we start from scratch.

I never take Haines street and I've never seen any vagrancy in Lake Oswego. I did take the Haines street exit once about six years ago just because I wondered if it was the same as when I was a little boy.

What HCP was talking about "Of course it hasn't always look like that. It's just funny to me that these grown men are going out of their way with their valuable time to google crime and shit in a major metropolitan city. I can do that to about where you guys live if I wanted to. It's no different than the racists asses on here who kept a thread going for years constantly searching for crimes committed by Mexicans Immigrants and would daily post the links and stories on here. I was blown away they let that thread continue."
 
Took the dog on a walk this morning....absolutely beautiful out. @THE HCP wasn't about to hide out in his house googling crimes. Out living life.

Lol. But makes it a point to run to a computer/phone and post how beautiful the city is while mocking others?

fantastic picture though. You should add to the picture thread fez no longer posts in. Around town thread?

agreed. This place is AMAZING!

Also. Me personally. Ive posted actual pictures at times, i have taken… no basement googling required to point out some facts! ;)

I read it the first time you posted it. Camden's model of policing looks to be a success and should be studied for other police departments to emulate. Unless the public continues to put on pressure demanding change, I have a hard time believing many police departments would embrace the kind of positive transformation that Camden went through. That's why the BLM movement is needed to push through the kind of change that we need in policing.

Exactly. And why siding with the police who are opposed to this kind of change is harmful and counterproductive.

I understand change is scary. But so is the idea of being shot by police or having my life ruined because a cop is having a bad day.

I had two close calls. Once was when my 3 nephews (all young children at the time) were around.

It's terrifying. Anybody they think might be too weak to fight back legally is at risk of this.
Specifically minorities and obviously poor people.

Camden, NJ is about the same size as Medford. So it would be nice to try this in a bigger city. I do think that Portland is a very good size for us to be a trial city.

Oregon is famous for adopting policies and laws that others have tried and had success with. We are just good at recognizing a good thing early on while letting someone else do the initial risk taking.
 
What’s going on in Portland? Pleasant walks, chatting with neighbors and enjoying this beautiful morning…
