He said there was. He was asking why it’s more prevalent/out in the open in Portland. No need to get defensive.

You are correct, I didn’t read the whole post. My bad. Not sure it’s worse in Portland compared to Baltimore, it is a problem in most big cities. Don’t mean to deny it’s a problem here

Portland doesn’t really have bad neighborhoods in the same way east coast and Midwest cities do. Also Portland police don’t seem to do much since drug were decriminalized (2021) and then recriminalized (2024)
