Gun free police, that’ll work.

May be a good idea if we can be assured that all candidates for the job are liberal dimocraps...

Time to send in the people to apprehend Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler with a straight jacket, and get that crazy man some professional help.

I was just thinking that same episode!!
If only Mayor Stone had let Andy and Barney do their jobs and not micromanaged. He wouldn't have been nearly mauled by that bear.

How about a tea and scones break while you’re at it. Invite the perps.

This sounds like a great idea. Portland will sink lower into chaos.

Citizens better arm up because the law isn’t going to protect them in Portland. Instead of fighting fire with fire they now will be fighting fire with pussy willows.

This is minor unless current armed officers are converted. The defunding of the mounted patrol is a bigger deal. Yes, Wheeler is an idiot.

It sounds like these will be cleanup personnel, who show up at a crime scene when all risk of danger has passed.
= = = = = = = =
Sort of like a ‘citizens brigade’ trained and used for crowd control and traffic in certain situations, leaving the Regular Police to do Police duties.
That headline is really misleading as - IMNSHO - it is suggesting turning Portland Polices into the “British Bobby” fold...
As a couple of posters suggest, be interesting to see who shows up and gets ‘appointed’.
Reminiscent of the ‘Guardian Angels’ with Police ‘training’....

Yes but basically a tool.
The REAL IDIOTS are those that elect these idiots.
The REAL REAL IDIOTS are those that stay home and not vote for an anti because the candidate isn’t lock step with EVERYTHING ‘you’ want, so stay home and let the trash get swept in.
