They blame 'woke policies' and years of Democratic leadership for allowing people to use hard drugs in public.The result is a city where drug casualties crash out on street corners and tented encampment are growing Business owners say the problem is keeping tourists away and turning down town into a no-go area. Joe Biden could have seen it all for himself if he had walked just a few blocks from his Friday night hotel The casualties were everywhere. Two blocks from the hotel lobby a man was folded up on a street corner, his body draped around a rolled-up sleeping bag. Shoppers pretended not to notice his unconscious figure as they headed towards a Nordstrom department store. 'You walk with blinders,' said Charlene, a 21-year-old student, who carried a Zara bag. 'Otherwise you wouldn't come here at all. Thanks to 110 making Lethal Drugs Legal in Oregon. Two blocks further on, a woman covered in a gray robe stood frozen at a drinking fountain, her clothing and drug-induced turning her into a living statue. In a small city center park, morning dog walkers strolled past benches filled with droop-headed drug users. One man flattened a piece of foil before putting a lighter to it, and inhaling the results through a pipe in plain view of a children's playground. A man slumps on the sidewalk in downtown here in Portland, Oregon. Businesses say they are losing customers because tourists are staying away, shoppers are too scared to venture into the city center. They say customers fear for their safety as they enter bars and restaurants. The decriminalization of hard drugs is blamed by many for changing the tone of the city. Drugs are on open display with Portland open air Drug markets. Clusters of tents dot all of downtown Portland. Critics of the city say it has taken a 'laissez faire' attitude to drug users Dem`s love to see how far they have crush Portland while they fill there pockets with Tax payer dollars from the downtown businesses. Remember Portland takes in 5.8 Billion each year from taxes more than most small Nations do breeding greedy corruption right in your face as this is what Portland in known for now a long with breeding New Crops of Antifa paid for by Unions, Socialist Dem`s ready to strike in Portland or shipped out all over our Nation. This is Portland now in 2022, where hipsters line up for at Voodoo Donuts for their world famous confections next to an abandoned theater where rake-thin drug users sit on the sidewalk waiting for their next fix - or for their last one to wear off. The hotels are near empty and restaurant owners say their customers don't feel safe in Portland. A coffee shop where an oat milk latte would sell for $5 is closed, its doorway filled with sleeping bodies and the scent or urine in the morning. Portland set a record for murders last year. It reported 90 homicides - shattering the previous high of 66 - could be about to surpass it this year. Such is the level of anger that toxic liberal Oregon could be about to do the unthinkable to elect its first Republican governor since 1982. The Democratic candidate Tina Kotek has seen a 16-point win for Biden two years ago eaten away by independent candidate Betsy Johnson who has described how the City of Roses has become a 'city of roaches.' Kotek helped introduce legislation that placed restrictions on what the Oregon cities could do to remove homeless people from the streets, at about the same time that hard drugs were decriminalized, now says she has the answer in her new TV Adds has played a huge part in the homeless problem. As a result Christine Drazan, the Republican candidate, has seized on anger and resentment at the way downtown has filled with homeless encampments and drug casualties. 'They just don't seem to get it,' she says in a 30-second ad released this week. 'It's time for a change, like declaring homelessness the emergency that it is.' Homelessness, drugs and crime are dominating the contest to elect the state's next governor. A Republican candidate with a law-and-order message has eased ahead in the polls after Dem`s have failed so badly to keep Oregon a safe place to live or shop. So sad to see these types of stories in the National New all by the hands of Socialiat/Progressive Dem`s handy work of the 1 party rule for so long. So are you pissed off enough to make the right choice for change or will you still vote for the same "All Talk Do Nothing" Photo-Op Sell Outs ??
