@SMeieran We left MultCo because of how bad it was getting. I don’t mind paying taxes but we and our neighbors just saw a city in decline and lack of services.
@KrisLupoli@oregonducksmama They will release him after says he has a drug addiction. Then an Oregon judge will release him instead of forcing him to treatment. Big Sigh
@PissedVotersPDX@MayorKWilson the city has consistently ignored residents when we share concerns about low barrier shelters in residential neighbohoodss, and i see the new mayor is no different. i emailed the mayor's office asking how they plan on addressing these issues and got a "working on it still"
@SusanGriffin530 we did- high taxes and nothing in return for them besides lawlessness (high crime and public drug use and completely ridiculed if we raised concerns about it)
@davidmedinapdx Right- those radicals believe “every voice matters” & “everyone deserves a seat at the table” but the minute you disagree with them on a topic they tell you to shut up and call you names. They are petulant children who only want things their way- they don’t want to have discourse
@MrAndyNgo i am legitimately lost why they would argue he didnt act criminally. at a minimum Driving drunk is a crime & exceeding speed limit is a crime.
@celebriD This is terrifying. This is why people literally don’t get involved or try to help other people anymore. Poor guy. Hopefully the video proves his innocence. That mom definitely giving off entitled & crazy white mom vibes. “my baby is my world” as she runs her daughter over.
@RepDexterOR there are already anti-discrimination laws that have been affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court. why do we need this Equality Act? This question is coming from a gay man. Maybe you can maybe focus on getting fentanyl addicts and tents off Portland streets?
@KOINNews what i dont understand is they have funds from Supportive Housing tax- why dont they use that instead of taking from the DA's budget? Can't we support public safety and the homeless? This feels like deliberate subterfuge from JVP.
@bob4portland couldnt agree more: "Given these factors, Vasquez said it was “shocking” that Vega Pederson allocated $23 million into the Homeless Services division, “doubling down on failed issues,” instead of funding the DA’s Office or the Dept. of Community Justice."
@PissedVotersPDX get ready for low-barriers shelters the state will put in any neighborhood in any city or town they want. and then that city will have to deal with the impact on the neighborhood.
