Rioting continues nightly in Portland. Criminals are arrested, immediately released, and return to the streets. It is hard to see how Portland has a viable future. Likewise with Seattle. A city that cannot maintain order will soon be vacated by normal people who are able to leave, leaving only criminals and those without the means to get away. Minneapolis, with its days of rioting followed by skyrocketing crime and parks turned into tent encampments, is not far behind. Panic is spreading among people who own houses and (worse) condominiums there.
Then there is Chicago, where mass looting took place last night. Thieves struck on Michigan Avenue, the premier shopping venue
One notable feature of these videos is the absence of law enforcement. Police are hopelessly outnumbered, and looters, rioters and arsonists arrogantly assume that they can steal and burn to their hearts’ content with no interference.
Unfortunately, they are right. Few are arrested, those that are arrested are immediately set free, and the likelihood of criminal prosecution is negligible, especially in cities that have Soros-installed prosecutors who have pledged not to prosecute.
None of this is remotely viable, obviously. Through history, the normal practice has been to shoot looters. Rightly or wrongly, we are no longer willing to do that. The result, evidently, is that order cannot be maintained. Black Lives Matter sponsors riots and loot-fests, like the one last night in Chicago, with the apparently enthusiastic backing of big business and with not a word of criticism from any Democratic Party politician. What does Joe Biden think of Black Lives Matter-sponsored rioting, arson and looting? Maybe someday someone will ask him.
At some point, a society becomes too stupid to survive. I am not sure we have arrived at that point yet, but we may be getting close.

Four cities listed. Any others? I deplore the lawlessness in these cities but wonder is it contained to these four?
AMERICAN CITIES IN CATASTROPHIC DECLINE
I wonder if there’s a correlation between...nah, couldn’t be.
That’s every single American city.
I’m really not sure what cities are good for now. They warehouse poor people, but that isn’t working out well. Not sure what to do with unproductive people, but creating Democrat strongholds is a bad idea. I wouldn’t mind seeing city populations drop by two-thirds.

Well with America being a free country the peoples of these cities were allowed to shape their own self management.
It was a great experiment in promoting Leftist principles.
Only right wing Trumpsters would dare ridicule their choices and outcomes. /s
You might be adding Texas to that list pretty soon. Abbott has been a great big disappointment! Austin lefties have gotten to him!
“Rightly or wrongly,...”
Wrongly.
Locust voters are bringing it to your neighborhood.
Correction.
DEMONCAT RUN CITIES FOR 50 plus years with no republican in sight
“...AMERICAN CITIES IN CATASTROPHIC DECLINE...”
There is a God!
There is nothing in a city outside Austin that even comes close to what’s happening in Portland, Seattle, Shitcargo, Rottenapolis.
I am involved with a real estate investment group. Our leader told us that 15% of the real estate in Minneapolis is currently on the market.

You seem to quite jolly about it. If it weren’t for the reality that a significant percentage of the maggotry who brought it to this will erupt into the countryside like a festering boil to run from the mess of their own creation, I guess I would be, too.
“15% of the real estate in Minneapolis is currently on the market.”
Probably would be higher, but people might owe more than the house/condo is worth.
Five - Minneapolis, Chicago, Portland, Seattle, and New York.
Five left wing mega s***holes with zero law enforcement.
Antifa/BLM invading small towns are likely to be run off at gunpoint by armed citizens & determined police.
It’s far from over.
