Portland's open-air drug market is laid bare as people smoke heroin on the streets and needles litter the sidewalks as city officials start homeless sweeps while a nearby city's mayoral candidate 'wants to round them up and use 'Japanese-style pods' to house them.

New photos taken by DailyMail.com show the current situation in Portland, a city that has been plagued with homelessness and addicts openly using drugs in broad daylight. Users were seen injecting themselves, slumping over in a semi-comatose state.

Discarded needles, human waste and the smell of urine adds another layer of tarnish to city's progressive policies - one of them being the Ballot Measure 110 decision, which has decriminalized hard drugs in the Democrat-run state.

The Dems who voted for this might actually like the results. Sad but true.

Backfired? How could this not be the intended result? The plan worked better than imagined!

Decriminalizing drugs encourages use. This is not rocket science. I cannot believe the city of Portland did not know what they were doing. The only mystery is why?

The feds should take charge. But ANTIFA attacked the feds in Portland. The Democrats are backing the feds.

So the feds pulled out.

Build a camp in rural Oregon, offer them a path to get clean, or give them all the drugs they want.

“Bring out your dead” each morning. Problem solved.
