Rumor What's going on in Portland?

Amazes me gas prices are only going up in PDX and down everywhere else. What a shithole City I live in.

 

What…. And there’s no internet! Time to move!

 

Just took the dogs on a walk through the hood. What an amazing afternoon. How could somebody actually go out of their way to google bad news about the city they live in on a day like this? Some bored motherfuckas up in here.

 

I didn't google "Bad News". It was simply a search for "Portland" on google news. Just providing an alternative to your sunshine and rainbows posts. Great things happen, I agree it is a great afternoon. Bad things also happen.

 

City of Portland gets 1.2 million to help improve downtown areas

When Portland needs help to improve our citizens, like getting it's homeless off of our streets, it is clearly a waste of money "improving" our city.

 

Did you see all of the slashed tires & dumpster fires on your bike ride?

 

Who cares where the money is coming from. Portland's homeless are being ignored. In fact, our homeless population is on the rise. Even under Biden.

From America's president, to the governors, to city mayors. Our country fails it's own citizens. Why the hell we vote for useless politicians who care more about beautifying a city, than helping it's own citizens is beyond me.

It seems to me that if they spent money... on the problem. The problem just might actually go away.

Homeless off of our streets would beautify Portland just fine, IMO. Make Portland a safer city in the process. Win, win.

 

It rubs you the wrong way when ONE PERSON in this whole forum posts positive things about HIS hometown? Felt you needed to run out and find “alternative” news to share. You felt this thread was missing that?

 

We have more than enough money allocated to homelessness to house every homeless in the metro area 3x over for a year. And we have that funding in place every year moving forward. Buy hotels. Whatever it takes. Get these people help. We have approved the money. Now it's in our leaders to get it done.

 

Biden is not omnipotent unless Congress is willing to work with him.

 

I'm not rubbed the wrong way. I'm calm. Be positive as much as you want. That was just the first things I saw. I'm glad you had a great afternoon.

I'm on my way up to see a concert tonight at the Star. Doors at 8. I'll be sure to post pictures, hope I don't get shot!

 

Prepping for my second annual haunted house of horrors at my house for halloween in Portland. Spent my day off building an electric chair for it. Still some touch up to do on it.

 

I love a good haunted house during Halloween.

 

We bought a house 3 years ago with a pass through garage, and me and my kid were super stoked thinking hey, we can do a haunted house! Covid hit and screwed up those ideas, but we had one last year, and gotta improve on it for this year.

 

What side of town you live on?

 

South tabor

 

We need big time leadership to get those with mental /and or addiction issues in hospitals/institutions for help. Spend the money to build them.

Provide housing and jobs for those that want help to get on their feet.
For those that want to just party and do nothing tell them they can do that anywhere but they cant loiter.

 

Bet there's some good haunted houses around there.
