Portland, Oregon, home of the NBA Trail Blazers, hippies, rain, homeless, forests, and rioting! When you search for Portland you see all the amenities the city offers plus the growing tech industry with 21 tech companies you might have heard about. If you are a far-left BLM sympathizer, the perfect landing spot for you. I am not, so will never visit Portland, ever.
Starting before the George Floyd innocent, Portland’s ANTIFA mob has been intimidating drivers, blocking off intersections and creating havoc for the police. The police response was force against force which enranged the white liberals, watching from their gated communities.
The cancel culture put their bullseye on the 6 months, on the job, white woman police captain, Jami Resch. Shortly after the assault started, she stepped down on June 9th, handing the job over to a black man, Chuck Lovell.
With all the confusion at the top, and the increasing orders for the police officers to not use force when confronted, the streets of Portland, like LA, NYC, and Chicago are dangerous. Some people, knowing that there is no law and order, are carrying weapons now in case they get attacked.

Every night for the past six weeks in Portland, Oregon, antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters, looters and vandals have turned what used to be a nice neighborhood in downtown into a war zone. Portlanders are sick of it.
The police commissioner/mayor and the new BLM-approved police chief have done little about it. The Portland Police Officers Association held a scathing news conference, issuing a no-confidence throwdown to City Hall and begging elected officials to stop defending antifa.
My friend took these photos of Portland a few days ago. The downtown is boarded up.

But next to nothing has been done by local Portland police.
Rioters Surround Car, Driver Shoots His Way Out
Now it looks as if the people are taking the matters into their own hands.
In the early hours of July 9th, a person driving a white car in downtown Portland was surrounded by rioters.
The “protesters” demanded that the driver “get off the f*cking road!”
Within seconds multiple shots were fired in the air from the car. No one was hit.

As I said, I will never go to Portland, but I lived there, I would have protection in my car too. This could have gone wrong quickly, but things worked out for the person in the car after all. Sure would have been nice to have seen police officers and empty roads instead.
