My preference would just be axing PPB and letting folks handle things with street justice.

    They say they want fewer overdoses but no mention of supervised consumption sites, which are the easiest and most effective way to do that.

    It’s always just more cops. Are there any politicians who can come up with 1 creative solution? Or talk to the people who can?

      Most simple folk think repealing M110 will fix the drug problem, we all know it won’t. I’m on board with safe injection sites. I’m not onboard with people smoking fentanyl or meth indoors. There needs to be treatment, but that’s not going to happen fast in any way shape or form. We need providers and that costs a lot of money and takes time to train, and it’s not like there’s any huge campaign to get people to go into that line of work, considering the pay is shit. But, we need an army of them, literally.

        Yeah, its really silly. Decriminalizing it didnt make it more prevalent. People would still be doing drugs, with the only difference is that theyll be getting arrested and be back out by the end of the night.

    we could certainly use some traffic enforcement, and that’s kinda their jam… tho it seems he wants them more to ‘clean up the city’

      Yeah. Would love to see the expired/no tags cars taken care of.

    My family and I weren’t too the Portland Art Museum last weekend. Park blocks had some guy yelling at the top of his lungs and getting into a fight. I looked over and saw one guy push the other guy to the ground and we got out of there. As a bonus we saw a very large woman’s tits on Burnside too.

    I vote for more cops.
