Maybe Lionel Irving should become educated in our language.

Mandatory weapons training and forced carry of all the pussies and dead wood would go a long way to fixing this.

If those morons really wanted to "address" gun violence, then a) they would give those millions to local law enforcement and b) tell law enforcement to take the gloves off and crack skulls.
Stupid liberals (redundant, yes) think they can molly coddle these mongrels because of race, gender choice, astrological sign, whatever.
Until they do the above, they are headed toward a real "Escape From New York" scenario.

That’s what happens when your leaders allow riots every night.

Petty sure this is what Portlanders voted for. They had a chance to change it last year in the midst of the riots, that on one saw, due to reporters getting beat up. They voted by a large majority for a Soros funded progressive DA, who campaigned on “indicting” cops.

I’m betting most of the gun violence took place in the Antifa NoGo Zone.

“ Portland city leaders promised to intentionally invest in the Black community since it cut $15 million from the Portland Police Bureau last summer, but in the months since, it's hard to find those investments.”
What does that mean, like the money has gone missing or what??? How can the good people of that city tolerate that behavior??

Couldn’t agree more. Reap it…
The problem is when these jack wagons move somewhere nice and ruin the next place. Libs are locusts, a pestilence.

Since fifteen million dollars was cut from the police budget and crime went up, clearly the problem is that not enough was cut. (/ Democrat logic)

Maybe a connection between failed education systems and bullets flying around?

City commissioners approved giving just over $4 million to people and organizations in the city on the front lines addressing gun violence. LOL. I love media speak for "A bunch of leftist crooks just approved 4 million bucks to line their pockets and enrich their donors".
Hey, if you need to steal more money, just create a "blue ribbon panel" or "commission a study".

Portland: "Guns are the problem."
Really? You don't think letting rioters run the city has anything to do with it? Demonizing and demoralizing the police? Scaring businesses and any residents capable of relocating away?
Gun violence is a symptom. The disease is in city leadership.

I know it’s hard, but these people need to wake up and realize they are the masters of themselves. Don’t wait on mommy government to feed you milk. Stand on your hind legs and take care of yourself!

If they figure that out, they will move out of Portland in a nanosecond.
