Ten bucks says the thief or his family gets EBT / SNAP
Ten bucks says your both right!
Woohoo $30!!!! 🙃🙃😃😀🤑🤑🤑🤑
Why are they "going through" it now ?
I mean, I can think of some big cities that have been "going through" it for about 60 years.
The article’s comment section on KATU website are interesting because of all the excuses to blame this on the couple instead of local politicians. Amazing how brain dead these folks are.
Ha ha ha! Welcome to Portland.
“They’d heard about Portland’s crime issues but understood it’s something all big cities are going through.”
That doesn’t make it a good idea to go to one, it makes it a bad idea, as they learned.
They will not make the connection. If you ask them, they will give you the usual liberal pieties - covid, racism, inequalities, lack of housing, climate change, etc.
Gee...why indeed?
From another, related article:
"And what had happened to the city that Adrian remembered?"I'm not really sure where it's gone. It's gotten so bad, but it's a lot different than what I'm used to, what I was used to,” he said."
The guy is either a clueless moron, or he's afraid to admit the truth. The once decent city of Portland (that he apparently knew), has turned into a violent hell hole because of leftist politics.
There are places anyone shouldn’t go.
Remember folks, it’s racist to discuss or be against minorities stealing your shit.
Makes you think it would simplify matters to set up a blind 10 yards or so from your car.
Why not vacation in St. Louis, Detroit or Chicago?
They are closer and could be at least as exciting. St. Louis is the #1 US city for murders, Detroit is #4 and Chicago is #10.
I would not go to Portland, OR without some expectation of random violence and a mission to inflict severe pain upon the violent ones.
Do you think we're all idiots?
They'd heard about Portland's crime issues but understood it's something all big cities are going through.
And that, my FRiend, is the definitive statement which tells the whole world that they are heavy consumers of CNN, MSNBC, hates Trump, and probably has a "In this house we believe..." sign.

This is the America that 82 million “American” arsehos wanted.
you know its bad when peopel from Chicago think your city is too dangerous!
The rampant crime is definitely the responsibility of the perps and pols; however, evil has been with us since the Garden.
Take precautions when you travel. Most BMVs are crimes of opportunity.
My family and I traveled extensively over the years. If we road-tripped, we only left the vehicle for bathroom breaks, to pump gas, or get fast food until we reached the first hotel. As soon as we checked into a hotel, we emptied the vehicle so that there was nothing “attractive” inside while we went about our activities. Even the charging plugs were removed and put in my large handbag.
In the hotel, we leave our suitcases zipped up, side by side, facing the same direction in the furthest corner of the room from the door or shoved tightly into the closet when not in use. We could tell immediately if someone touched them.
We thoroughly cleaned the house, locked it down tight, and closed every internal door on our way out. We would be able to tell instantly if someone had come in.
We’d have trusted friends come by to check it, collect mail, change which light is left on, etc. Jewelry, checkbook, etc. go into the small safe inside the big safe.
Knock on wood, in all our years of traveling nothing was ever stolen abroad or at home.
