PORTLAND, Ore. — There’s a relentless rhythm on the streets of any sufficiently large city in Oregon that’s become increasingly routine for everyone, regardless of where they sleep. Homeless people set up camp, then the city posts it for removal. Most of the time, the homeless people move to another location and the cycle repeats.

A proposed Oregon bill aimed to reverse that routine and even allow homeless people to sue for $1,000 if they are harassed or told to move. The legislation, House Bill 3501, is called the “Right to Rest Act” and it’s been introduced in Oregon before.

It's KommieKunt confiscation of public and private property by the deputized rabble, and another abdication of the nominal government job of keeping the population safe. Another psychotic Kommie law that has to wend its way through the courts to being declared unconstitutional.

These abdications will eventually lead to tax evasion and tax protest. It's the Kommies killing the tax base that lays their golden eggs, but they want primitive culture, anyway. These people have no literacy and are stupid. Soros smiles.

So it has gradually dawned on the geniuses in charge that the city/state took some wrong turns back in 2020 and may need to dig itself out by actually changing things. Back in August, Gov. Tina Kotek of Oregon announced she was forming a task force designed to help revive the city of Portland by carefully studying the problem and making recommendations.

Gov. Tina Kotek announced Wednesday she is launching a task force focused on bolstering the economic future of Portland’s central city, which continues to reel from converging crises…

The move comes as Portland’s urban core remains among the nation’s slowest to recover in the aftermath of the pandemic amid blocks of empty offices and storefronts as well as pervasive homelessness, open drug use and public safety concerns.

Today, Gov. Kotek announced she’ll be acting on the list of recommendations she got from the task force, which include adding more police officers and outlawing public drug use.

What? That's racist!

(Hey, it doesn't have to make sense, because wokeness never does.)

Over half of Portland residents want to leave city after defunding police led to sprawling homelessness and spikes in crime - as business is forced to turn to ROBOT cop to patrol its property
Majority of Portland voters would consider leaving the city if given the opportunity, a poll found
The shocking results come after defunding the police led to increases in crime and homelessness

People I talk to who have told me they escaped Portland because the mayor they voted for is too liberal and the place is to crazy for them also tell me their voting habits have not changed and make no connection and that they will still vote liberal in their new towns because everything there is fine. They are incapable of anything.

I mean think about it. Portland, Austin, and Seattle are all liberal shit holes because of the people who left California and moved there because they thought California was becoming unlivable. And they voted the same liberal way in these new cities. Then they will move from there and do it all over again never making the connection THEY ARE the problem.

I think the ultimate solution is for those people to escape their own resentments.

At Safeway in Tri Valley, I saw a woman across from the store entrance posing as a homeless, with her homeless junk spread around her and the usual signage of dire need. When I came out of the store, she was loading her 'homeless' stuff and her sign into a big stretch SUV. So, she was just a member of a beggar's ring and they probably took her and others from place to place to drop them off for a while before any authorities showed up to stop them.

It's like the flower vendors who deal drugs in Santa Cruz. A big white van picks them up and drops them off at their locations with an illegal tending the 'store'. Their guy by the park where I live is always nervous as a cat, almost always on the phone, and never responds if you pass and say hello. When the crazy gay guy lived across the street, I saw him down there buying drugs, but he was so crazy, he totally flummoxed the vendor by doing it in an obvious way while carrying on, it was kind of funny.

Oregon is just a weird state overall from my experience as a midwesterner visiting. Has that reputation as being weird. I substitute it with being stupid and of low education. I love the Mt. Hood area, but still it's weird. I have a favorite mountain and it's Mt. Hood if anyone has a mountain fetish. I just feel like the people living there are disconnected from reality.

For fucks sake I got chased down about to pump my own gas last time I was there. I totally forgot you need someone for that.... Again, stupid. Thinking of it now, do they have to plug your Tesla in for you? Serious question. That would suck to have to talk to a moron for 20-30 minutes versus 3 for an ICE fill up. Never understood why they do that. Canada was the only other place I experience the gas station attendant.

New Joisey, although I think they recently abolished the practice. Last time I gassed up there, the fucking attendant used my credit card number to charge shit at Home Depot.

Dick. It's a waste of money when the guy or gal could be doing something more productive when I'm fully capable of pumping my own gas. Guy didn't even check the oil like they did in Canada when I was a kid.

I'm a generous tipper, but I have no clue about the etiquette on gas pumping. I didn't give him anything. Whatever. I'm not tipping 3-5 seconds of effort. Now if he washed my windows, checked the oil (rental car so who gives a fuck) and did other basics I'd give a buck or two I suppose. I just don't get the practice. Jobs obviously, but it just raised the price of fuel which is still taxed. It's the definition of retardation.

Once a hipster paradise that prompted cable satire Portlandia, which told of residents obsessing about barista-made coffee and bike share schemes, this liberal north east coast city now looks more like a nightmare dystopia.

That is because two years ago Portland decriminalised all drugs — including heroin, cocaine, crystal meth and Fentanyl, under what was known as Measure 110.

They have people to pump gas because their are some really stupid people that have trouble with something as simple as pumping gas. They also want to stop the the guys topping off their rental car on the way to the airport...

Oh, Portland. This morning’s top story comes from the Times of Israel, since U.S. media found the story too obscure to publish. The Times’ headline yesterday read, “Portland pro-Palestinian group claims it torched 17 cop cars.” First off, torching a fleet of cop cars is NOT domestic terrorism. That label is reserved for Christians protesting abortion clinics. And sane people:




As the image above shows, apparently Portland’s anarchistic Antifa groups have their own website and a blog. Portlanders, try to follow me here, but you can use the website to find the criminals.

Anyway, according to the manifesto claiming responsibility, Antifa, who was so very active during the 2020 Summer of Protest supporting black folks, has unfolded a different section of its utility knives, and now supports radical religious jihadi muslims in Palestine. Not everyday Palestinians, mind you. They like the terrorist ones. Not only that, they claimed their attack supported native Americans and black folks and students and even anarchical heroes of history. Here’s what the “Rose City Brigade” said in its statement:

On May Day we torched some PPB cars at their training facility. We cut through a fence, set ten fires and are happy it grew to burn fifteen cars!
Our attack was preemptive. We knew the occupation at Portland State U. would be swept violently and wanted to attack the police before.
Above all we did it for the Palestinian martyrs! We did it for the Haymarket Martyrs (ed. note: the Haymarket Martyrs are eight bombmaking anarchists arrested in Chicago in 1886). We did it for all the Black and Indigenous rebels murdered by slavers and settlers.
We did it for all the brutalized student protesters.

Makes sense. I mean, if you’re going to burn up a whole fleet of police cars, you might as well pile in as many different groups as you can. Portland’s anarchists did, stretching all the way back to 1886 to find comrades to share in the sweet anti-cop glory.

The putatively untraceable May 2nd website post (no arrests have been made) went on to provide a lengthy list of suggestions for student protestors, about how to make their pro-Palestine protests even more violent. “If the cops come,” the Rose City Anarchists encouraged students, “don't just resist arrest, fight them!” It relied on simple logic: “They will hate you and beat you if you're peaceful or violent, and it is time to be violent!”

As a lawyer, I should pause at this point to suggest students should consider ignoring Antifa’s advice, and cooperating when confronted with tense, anxious law enforcement officers authorized to use deadly force to uphold the law. Especially when you act violent. ...

It’s been a week since the preemptive po-po burning. Local Fox-12 reported this weekend that cleanup efforts were underway after three days of mostly-peaceful protests at Portland State University, its library, and nearby businesses. The protests are now over. They’ve re-opened Portland U.’s campus. Except for the library. Which wants to let the protestors know it is very sorry and please don’t occupy it again.

In even more good news from the most unlikely places, and further evidence of the conservative counter-revolution, behold a story from the most unlikely place of all: Portland! ...

Yesterday, voters in Multnomah County — a hyper-liberal county that has not picked a Republican presidential candidate since 1960 — considered whether to replace their woke, anti-law-and-order incumbent district attorney, Mike Schmidt, whose over-funded campaign benefited from multiple millions from malignant Soros NGOs. His challenger is veteran prosecutor Nathan Vasquez, who was a Republican until just recently, when he changed his registration to unaffiliated in order to run.

According to Politico, Portland’s DA race is a stinky microcosm of national politics, the unsightly rotting fruit of democrat excess. A short four years ago, overjoyed liberals applauded the success of Soros’s national plan to capture local district attorneys and sheriffs for pennies on the political dollar. Having their hands firmly on the law-enforcement wheel in many areas, democrats promptly drove their local economies right off the hipster road into the fire swamp of anarchy.

It’s all connected; high crime doesn’t just make people anxious, it also makes for a terrible economy and nowhere to shop. Only democrats think you can stop prosecuting criminals (of a certain melanin content) and expect everything to shine with social success. It didn’t work. In Soros-DA jurisdictions, crime rates have exploded, as unprosecuted criminals not only commit more crimes, but they also commit crimes more often and more daringly because they feel emboldened. ...

Even in Portland, most Americans who vote liberal still want to live like conservatives. Congratulations, Portland! You’re hauling yourself off rock bottom. Keep it going.
