The standard refrain on any discussion threads complaining about the "homeless encampments" on the "bike paths" is some variation of this: "this is a very complex problem that's not going away."
To: Steely Tom
The reason I’m posting this is because (1) the source is interesting, which you will see if you look at it, particularly at the comments after the more political stories, and (2) I realized that the “bike paths” that are going up around the country, including where I live, are future “homeless encampments” about which nothing will be done.

Agenda 21 and its subsequent versions is all about increasing population density around gov’t infrastructure.
Why would bike paths be exempt from The Plan?

I got Antifa anxiety from that website. I am not woke. It's ok. They can't get you. It's only a bunch of digital bits.

Having lived there...Portlandia is all about getting things for free, lots of sex and drugs and most important...
Sticking it to rich people.
I’ve never been to any city in the world more anti business than Portland.

The lefties will jump straight to totalitarianism when they finally get tired of the chaos their bone-headed policies have created.
They will skip right over law and order and jump directly to no rights for anyone.

Yes, that’s one of the pictures I saw. It was taken at the Multnomah Falls Restaurant. It’s possible to zoom in on the original (at the website) and get a close look at the faces.

To your point an example of a submission at the link and the submitter's comment:
Another pedestrian killed. Hit and run. My condolences to the family of the victim.
The lack of enforcement of any type has turned Portland into a “failed municipality”. Law breakers and criminals know there will likely be zero repercussions for their actions. It’s like the Wild West of yesteryear. Very Sad. Stay safe.
There are more that I read that basically say the same thing.
Will never understand why people continue to vote in and keep the losers that run their cities into cesspools and keep their now Gothem city that way.

To: GOP Poet
Yes, exactly. Much hand-wringing about the state into which Portland has descended, expressions of condolence, but zero willingness to confront the elephant in the room. The closest that anyone will come is "this is a very complex problem."
Now of course the website is moderated, so its possible that non-conforming posts are deleted.

Will never understand why people continue to vote in and keep the losers that run their cities into cesspools and keep their now Gothem city that way. It is psychologically easier for them the blame anything other than their ideology for the mess they have created.
They have to change their entire worldview to do that.
Large numbers of people would rather die than change their worldview.
