Maybe, just maybe, this might slow down the rush to decriminalize drugs in other states. But I doubt it. If there is one thing I've learned is that leftists do not learn from failure and want to keep pushing the same failed ideas.

Who says the plan wasn’t 100% successful?

  1. Decriminalize drugs in the state
  2. Let the drug issue burn the whole thing to the ground
  3. Common-sense people are fed up and leave the city
  4. Property values go to crap; city gets properties for pennies on the dollar
  5. Recriminalize drugs to secure their newly founded community utopia
  6. From the ashes, build anew in their own image

Did the rest of you read this part?

"HB 4002 is not a perfect solution; legislators will undoubtedly have much more work to do in upcoming sessions. But it sets a standard for how the state should approach the drug addiction crisis: by empowering law enforcement and our behavioral health systems to work together to help Oregonians struggling with chronic addiction seek life-saving treatment."

I actually support this approach.

Just little children making silly demands until it backfires.

Oregon, specifically Portland, is a nightmare.

Last visit there I had a huge druggie demand I give him my Batman T-shirt.

Another druggie demanded money on the train. I just got out and waited for the next train. Same druggies in that one.

Finally even my liberal family moved out. But moved back to California.
