    Portland's CDX plywood storefronts are the new aesthetics of retail. Open air market is totally consistent with the city's inclusiveness and accessibility for all.

    Voting in certain things doesn't mean you can board it up, and it's going to suddenly go away. Portland needs to change their policies, laws, policing, for there to be any significant changes.

      Alot of the drug users are on probation, their probation officers hands are tied due to measure 110, they can't even arrest or violate them anymore for getting high. It seems that the powers that be want things to be chaotic.

    But we drove through downtown Portland near State and dad was probably about twenty or thirty people sitting up under the front side of what used to be the bank there by the water fountain and probably about 20 of them was doing drugs right out in the open and the other ones were dealing and one woman was even having sex

      Ignores the opioid epidemic in the red states. Drugs exist and are used in every city doesn't matter if there is a blue or red in charge. The war on drugs has been a failure we need to find a new way forward. Maybe we should start with why people are using drugs. If Americans are not buying them there wouldn't be need for the cartels to ship them here.
