    These destructive riots are now increasing insurance rates across America - making it even more prohibitive for small businesses (not just to survive the epidemic slowdown, but the riots themselves). It only creates more hardship for those food-desert neighborhoods that need commerce the most.

      Nobody’s in normal in Portland. I think some people who move there or have been born and raised there will tell you that Portland is uneasy and an uncomfortable weird social climate and even they hate it but they’re stuck and the people who do move there are not normal. Sure maybe some move there out of blind ignorance but they soon leave after a year or two but those who stay are not normal.

      They did in Oakland, California. They vandalized the mayors house, including the garage door. Guess what was in the window above her garage? A BLM sign.
      Seriously, you're next ... as we all are, no matter who we are or where we live. Take a stand or not, but there is no "safe" anymore.

    If someone commits crimes against property or persons, they need to be apprehended and justice needs to be served according to the law.
    If you don’t want to see riots and destruction of property anymore, throwing more police and weapons at it, won’t make it better. The underlying issue of racial inequality and police violence against blacks NEEDS to be addressed.

A political party that has been marginalized in Portland for decades. A party that has forced the Mayor of Portland to allow federal agents to help restore peace to Portland. If only.

Laws exist for a reason, how about we equally enforce them for a change?

    Residents of downtown Portland should be on the side of BLM. If they don’t want tear gas and flash bang grenades...then stand up against fascism. Citizens should be able to peacefully protest injustice in their country and the ruckus that’s happening down there is because of police. Not because of the people. The people have boom boxes and hand drums. The police have flashbangs and LARD announcements. File your noise complaint against the fascists not the citizens.
