DAVID MARCUS: In Democrat Portland, luxury, vagrancy and total disorder

Portland, Oregon – This city is in the light of national spotlight this week due to the violent antiques of Antifa with the attacks on the local migration and customs implementation detention center after President Trump’s plan to send federal law enforcement officers. But once the real problem of the great city is a rich population that seems indifferent to the twin waist of human misery and internal terrorism that came to describe it.

Two problems may be more related to it.

Portland has been prepared to see the calculation of Trump offense after the humiliating violence of the 2020s

On Monday morning, Portland city center is a ghost town according to the standards of most major American cities. There are only two types of people circulating on a basis, with many money and none.

This is a similar western coastal phenomenon in many ways to the confusion of San Francisco. In both liberal belts, it is normal for a corner to enter a series of homeless tents, human waste and burning drugs from a block of high -level shopping block.

I asked John in his forties if there was something you just used to. “I think it’s like that,” he said to me. “I will come here and throw homeless, throwing needles, everywhere.”

I stood in the corner and I burned a cigarette, a Bedraggled man walked with a sign that reads a bike, “Make a bike for sale,”. When I think about the used trekin provence, a very beautiful, clearly homeless and addicted young woman wanted to wear a smoke.

When I gave him one, he said with great eyes, “Thank you, you are great.” I stuttered a “thanks” and then watched it while getting caught by the bike, gave him the cigarette and moved to another sign. I had to admit, it was a sophisticated little grift.

For everyone from a northeast American city, it all seems very, very strange. Even dystopia.

For example, there are homeless people sprinkled around the Center City Philadelphia, but you should go to search for pure human misery with a needle park. It is available everywhere in Portland.

Since President Donald Trump announced that he would send federal authorities to clean the city, we have seen most of the most useless form of discourse, and a beautiful showcase on social media to say “look, good” by beautiful Brunches Portland or liberals.

Portland’s sidewalks are full of tents of homeless drug addicts, but most citizens seem indifferent.

This weekend, the Democratic Governor Tina Kotake gathered a crowd in the warship Oregon Park and published images of how beautiful it was. I went there on Monday morning, just to find it adorned with a homeless man at the cigarette base hanging from his hand.

This is an extremely privileged, progressive way, as well as the so -called pleasant Portland’s social media publications, which is a general insensitivity to the suffering that is constantly exposed to constantly exposed.

Everything and existing ones are basically ignoring each other.

And it’s not just the homelessrs that Portlanders are used to. In the local CVS, which seemed to be something from the Soviet Union, 90% of the stock was not only razor and deodorant, but also the chips bags were behind the lock and key.

For the armed security guard – like San Francisco, you almost never see armed police, you just don’t see special armed security – if he stops too much theft. “Look around,” he said to me, “There’s nothing they can play, mostly here, for violent people who can go in.”

In the crystal clarity that it sends to citizenship, the message should be surrounded by unreliable thieves, so they should go to the protection of fancy restaurants or high -rise apartments and allow the streets to be streets.

He’s going back to the anti -story.

Why does the antifa feel strengthened in seizing Portland’s square blocks and harassing anyone they want? In New York or Philadelphia, the police would finally close it. It wouldn’t take 10 minutes where I lived in Western Virginia.

The open answer is that the city does not stop them. Just as the city does not do anything to clean the use of vagrancy and open drugs, every day, people are fully delivered because people die on the streets under the beautiful pine trees overlooking a wonderful city.

Trump’s Washington, DC, safer, cleaner and more free vagrant efforts were greeted with some gratitude even at Deep Blue Capital City, but does not expect to see it in Portland.

The rich here seems to not care if there are needles coming out of the arms of people or if they attack the anti -journalists. There are Kombucha and there are cute shoe shops and the like, and as crazy as it seems to me, many people here think that the situation is really good.
