Portland used to be a great American city, but the left’s acceptance of crime and their diminishment of the police have resulted in the most homicides in the city’s history in 2021.
This from thegatewaypundit.com.
Andy Ngo reported for the Daily Mail the following:
At least a dozen major U.S. cities have set grim new records for homicides in 2021 — and the year is not over yet.
The city that may be the worst among them is Portland — where I’m from.
Portland turned over its streets to Black Lives Matter-Antifa rioters last year and allowed the far-left to dictate public policy.
Elected officials in the ‘City of Roses’ condemned the police, defunded law enforcement and coddled violent criminals in the name of ‘anti-fascism’ and ‘anti-racism.’
Now it’s dealing with yet another year of surging murders, shootings, riots, homeless encampments, mass looting and violent criminality.
In early December, the Portland Police Bureau announced that it would only be responding to the most serious 911 calls involving life or death scenarios.
Ngo continues:
As 2021 comes to an end, the consequences of the political decision-making by [Mayor] Wheeler and those on the city council to defund and demoralize law enforcement after George Floyd’s death is clear: more black and brown people are dying—and few are able to get the help they need when they call police.
From Seattle to Austin and New York City, every American city that defunded police last year immediately experienced surging violent criminality. And even before this year is over, 12 American cities, all led by Democrats, broke their all-time annual homicide records.
Though Portland doesn’t have anywhere near as many murders as larger cities long plagued by gang warfare, for example, Chicago and Philadelphia, Portland takes the dishonor of having among the highest percentage increase of homicides anywhere in the U.S. for two years in a row now.
As reported since 2020, Portland is in some kind of hellacious mess. The police were under attack from corrupt prosecutors while the criminals were set free.
The design is the destruction of the city, the bringing down of all of America.
Recently Antifa was allowed to attack a Christian prayer rally on the waterfront – the police ignored the call.
Portland’s DA is to blame for the increased crime as he’s allowed criminals to be let go–to return to the streets and to repeat their violent actions.

These damn communists who were ignorantly voted into (or stole their elections) positions of power don’t want to protect Americans. They want to destroy this country.
Patriot Americans and Conservatism must bring to an end this violence and destruction in our cities.
But what first must be brought to an end is the democrat communist cult of a political party and its collaborator the main street media. And neither of these goals will be accomplished by way of the ballot box. They are too deeply entrenched.
Many believe nothing short of a miracle will help us now. But if we strive to help ourselves, a miracle is more likely to be presented to us.
May God bless America.
And God speed to the powers of right and true.
