You have reached the Portland Police.

You left out "Your call is very important to us." Also, "your wait time is ..............." "THIRTY" ".... minutes. Please hold for the next officer."

It’s Portland. They like it that way.

“If this is an emergency, put your head between your knees and kiss your ass goodbye.”

[Zathras]

Hard core Conservative

[manc]

I feel bad for them

[kaktuskid]

Sounds like the current radio as for Trump

Forget it Jake, it’s Portown.

I lived in Portland for 7 years.
I could see the move to radical thinking coming to Seattle-Portland and left in 2013.

Even when I lived there, Portland was the most anti-business city on the West Coast.
Its far worse now.

“They had a neighborhood break in of their community mailbox.”

Should have called the Postal Inspectors Service it’s a federal crime not local.

Keep voting Democrat.

The Police told her to file a report on-line.

That's no surprise at all. Dealing with actual crime costs the city money. Writing tickets raises it. Which do you think the police care about more?

If you do not hear the options related to the Crime you were wishing to report, please visit our website to file a report for statistical purposes only please note that non-violent crimes, Such as Thefts, robberies, Breaking in entering of an unoccupied buildings will not receive a police investigation due to the fact that our force was defunded and the officers who normally investigate those crimes are no longer employed.

Social workers and counselors may be available to discuss the emotional impact your home being robbed may have on you.

"You have reached the Portland Police.
The hours of operation are Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.
We are closed on weekends and some holidays.

To respond to your crisis we require an authorization code and case number from Mayor Ted Wheeler. The mayor's office and home numbers are...follow the voice menu carefully"

"He's there to serve and protect you. Have a good day!"

[Retrofitted]

Not sure I'd call it "backing off". They're still under riot control orders, so they can only respond to certain calls. From the article: "The people of Portland, Oregon, had a brief glimpse of that reality, as police were forced to ignore all but emergency calls after law enforcement was tied up responding to violent rioting over the Independence Day holiday weekend." But that does force the folks in Portland to get a glimpse of what less of a police presence gives 'em, and I'm kinda content with that.

"I LIKE IT!"

[PIF]

After 5 weeks of non-stop rioting, Portland concedes and BLM with Antifa take control of their first major US city.

[gundog]

Overwhelm the police, and usher in community policing. Cloward -Piven writ small.

[Blue Highway]

If an emergency, leave a message, the average response time is... MAILBOX IS FULL. If you are calling about exercising your right to peacefully protest, press4 and a dispatcher will respond immediately to send a police escort for your safe arrival.

Having a 9mm choice is fine for most situations. Consider more options than 9mm though. I have 5.56 NATO options, .300 Blackout options, 12 gauge shotgun in #8, #9 shot, and 1600 fps slugs, and .458 SOCOM options too.

All of the above rifle caliber options work with ONE mil-spec lower receiver, the AR-15. All one needs to do is to push out two pins, and switch to the required upper receiver.

(I even have .22 LR options for bunny rabbits.)
