Sure thing.

https://www.mdpolicy.org/research/de...-of-the-police
-Since June 2020, there has been a 255% increase in murder in Portland through February 2021;
-Shootings up 173%—by 551;
-Shootings increased 126% in 2020, and Year to Date have increased 93%.
-The numbers are truly alarming. From January through April 2020, there were a total of three murders in Portland. Just in January and February 2021, we’ve already seen 20 murders. For the period of June 2020 through February 2021, 71 murders have occurred in Portland. That’s a staggering 255% increase over the same period one year prior.
-Shooting statistics tell another grim tale. In the period of June 2020 through February 2021, 870 shootings occurred in Portland. For the same period one year prior, Portland saw 319 shootings. That’s a 173% increase.
-This is a crisis that the city of Portland and Multnomah County are not taking seriously.
-Kennedy notes that 53 people were murdered through the end of 2020, after Floyd’s death and the subsequent push to defund the police.

Hell, all it took was the Antifa terrorists showing up near cucked Mayor Ted Wheeler's personal property for him to finally realize that defunding the police was a chitty idea.

Portland has had a lot of bad press, and they are trying to counteract it with an ad campaign.

I asked for the rate. Not percentage increases. Going from 1 to 2 is a 100% increase, but meaningless when being compared to 100.

For the record, I do think the stance of Mayor Wheeler on crime is weak. I think the city is headed in the wrong direction. But it isn't as bad as people make it out to be in the media. I see people posting on here from Illinois, Florida, and Michigan. Your states have cities with far more severe crime problems. I'll also point out almost every major city in America has seen an increase in crime, with Portland perhaps having a greater increase than norm due to the additional political unrest.

Also, you are all assuming the crime increases are due entirely to government policy, and not more obvious issues, such as political unrest or economic struggles due to covid.

We have some weird ass profile pics where the black dude and the Asian dude are using photos of each other instead of photos of themselves. One talking about Portland is the actual black dude eating the donut. My photo is, of course, the homeless tents outside of my apartment from last year in Denver, though they did finally clean it up after a month.

And just for fun, some examples of just how cringeworthy and out of touch Portland is:

https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/or/portland/crimeWith a crime rate of 59 per one thousand residents, Portland has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 17. Within Oregon, more than 97% of the communities have a lower crime rate than Portland.

https://www.kgw.com/article/news/por...b-a3b0852dd95cPORTLAND, Ore. — Oregon may be one of the safer states in the country, according to data released by the National Council for Home Safety and Security, but Portland is one of its most dangerous cities.

The least-safe city in the state is Coos Bay, but Portland doesn't rank far behind, coming in third from the bottom. Portland's violent crime rate is 5.2 reported crimes per 1,000 people and its property crime rate is 56.8 per 1,000.

I’m surprised that at this point the NG hasn’t been called. The politicians of Oregon are an embarrassment.

2019 rating. Portland had 56 homicides in 2020.

For comparison, Jacksonville, Florida had 160. Try to have a little perspective.

It's obvious property crime rate will be super high when we had multiple riots and political clashes. Every single window that was broken counts as a property crime.

Also, you need to subtract the proud boys and Trumpers that were murdered from the number to get a real accurate look at the homicides since a homicide is when a human is killed, and rodent extermination should be counted separately.

Well, as long as these peaceful protestors are only destroying everyone's property and killing people solely for their politics, I guess we can just somehow pretend those aren't crimes that count for the crime rate? JFL, only reason I would go to Portland is if I was black and wanted some pathetic white liberals to kiss my feet. I assume wincel would only be too happy.

You literally sound like either a Commie or a Fascist. Both of which hate any ideology that doesn’t align with theirs.

Your own mayor is leaving as well as its citizens, it's police officers, firefighters, etc.

Tell us, why would anyone want to visit Portland right now? Why would anyone want to live there?

You've never heard of "Keep Portland weird" have you? We've always been an odd place. You don't like it? Plenty of other cities to run off to.
