BLM was a top-down radical politics street-agitation movement. Obama’s brownshirts or red guards, founded by Eric Holder with protection of the DOJ.

Last year in Portland, 47 Black Portlanders were murdered, 11 Latino Portlanders, and 2 Asian Portlanders. Sixty out of 101 homicides in Portland – the whitest big city in the country – were of people of color.

Do we have similar stats on who committed the murders?

Also, notice the shift between murder and homicides in the stats given. How many were murders vs. accidents or justifiable homicides.

“More importantly we need a commitment of at least $20 million a year focused on addressing the homicides of Portlanders of color.”

If this was to hire and train additional law enforcement for Portland - and to address courts/judges who turn criminals loose to commit more crimes, I’d be all for it.

Instead I’m sure the paper doesn’t have any of that in mind for the “important commitment” they think is so important.

We need mental health professionals, businesses, police, the district attorney, faith leaders, and street level outreach workers to name a few to come discuss what is working and what isn’t. More importantly we need a commitment of at least $20 million a year focused on addressing the homicides of Portlanders of color.

No you don't. You need to get the colored people of Portland to obey the law and respect people and property. Oh, and to stop killing each other. See, I saved taxpayers $20million.

Certainly not to other blacks.

Just look at how they fight to be allowed to kill their babies.

Portland and Seattle are occupied by the most racist folks I’ve ever witnessed. What they say is so contrary to how they feel, it’s a psychological sickness. That goes for most of the progressive utopian citadels all around our nation.

Black lives matter, but they are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overvalued. 13% of a nation ruined the 87%.

47% of Portland murder victims were Black.

Just 5.6% of Portland's population is Black.

It would be interesting to know the race of all the arrested murder suspects.

Nationally, only about 40% of Black murders result in a murder prosecution.

About 80% of white murders are prosecuted.

Many USA Hispanics now identify as white, so it is hard to determine an accurate prosecution number. Twenty years ago, about 60% of Hispanic murders were prosecuted.

I didn’t know there were any blacks in Portland.

Or Seattle.

Or any of those north-west Yankee places that condescend to the rest of us, and throw riots to prove how tolerant they are.
