    Didn't really stop downtown Portland this time around. We drove by just to see it. Seemed like less homeless, but probably due to the weather, probably thrives more in the summer.

    Did hang on NW 23rd and Hawthorne, which were both cool.

    Police aren't referring cases to prosecutors. They show only 2% of thefts (down from 10% in 2019) get sent to the district attorney, only 12% of car thefts, and 5% of burglaries. When referred, 75%-85% of these cases are prosecuted by the DA.

    This whole thing about the state and counties being "soft on crime" is just BS. Police aren't doing their job.

    Neighbors on SE Powell say they’re being driven out by crime surrounding homeless camp



    Nearly 3,000 new homeless campsite reports. 906 of them along Powell.

    It is time to behead every politician in America, as it is painfully clear that they no longer care about humans... at all.

    Tents are all over LA, even in the nice neighborhoods now too. I don't think there are tents in Beverly Hills but the homeless are begging/buggin' out though. So much crime out there too, smash and grabs, carjackings, watch jackings, etc.
