A Portland, Oregon, community is on edge after a homeless man attacked a resident and a growing homeless encampment encroaches on the neighborhood
"It’s terrifying," Gwen Ingram, a resident living near Portland’s Southeast 111th Avenue and Powell Boulevard, told Fox 12 Oregon of the encampment.
"People scream at you, yell at you, threaten you."
Ingram told the outlet that the area was a peaceful "Leave it to Beaver"-style neighborhood until the first homeless resident showed up in a camper and the population grew so large that homeless individuals are now allegedly sleeping on private property, stealing things and breaking into homes.
"We never had any issues until the tents started moving in," Ingram's neighbor, Deena Closson, told the outlet, while explaining that she is scared to leave her home to get her mail.
Clossen claimed one night she was awoken by a man she didn’t know standing over her bed. In a panic, she sprayed the intruder with bug spray and threw a hammer at him until he fled out the front door.
Clossen told the outlet that she will likely be "leaving the home that I love."

I suggest she upgrade her home defense arsenal.

To government, it isn’t your house.
Rat values Rat world
Liberals: is there anything they CAN’T ruin?
Now in the olden days when something like this happened a group of substantial citizens would get together and burn the camp down driving all the bums away.
But that was the olden days. Everyone is more “woke” now.
She probably voted for Tina Kotex..er...Kotek.
Add a Bic lighter?
keep voting Democrat- someday it might pay off- but doubtful

Tell me what Party you voted for last election and I’ll decide whether I have any sympathy for your predicament or not.
Hey Portland residents, two things to remember:
1.There is a Second Amendment
2.Elections have consequences
So they’re afraid to go outside. Will they still be able to vote straight Democrat by mail-in ballots?
The article doesn’t say.

"This house has enough room for NINE families!"
"It’s terrifying," Gwen Ingram, a resident living near Portland’s Southeast 111th Avenue and Powell Boulevard, told Fox 12 Oregon of the encampment.
Mrs. Ingram has got to learn to put away the bug spray and smile a big, sh*t-eatin' grin, and say, "Welcome!"

This might be new to this neighborhood, but we rented a verbose house in Portland before the Covid lockdowns and it was terrible then. I got up several times in the night to see if my husband’s truck was still there. There was a homeless guy running across the street one morning in his tightie whities, carrying his blankets. We guessed that he had been sleeping on someone’s porch or front door stoop.
The liberals are learning the value of the Second Amendment they only way know how to learn.
These people are liberals. This is what they voted for. I really don’t have much sympathy for them. Maybe a few individuals who are conservative, but the community as a whole is getting what they voted for.
The libs finally got their UTOPIA
