"Portland" police are largely non-local (IIRC >80%), and that's compounded by the leadership purposefully lessening coverage in a shitty attempt to "show" City Hall they deserved more money, respect, etc. The latter was recently admitted in an interview, FFS. ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ
ACAB. Fuck the police, but especially these assclowns here
I think I remember the same statistic about how many were actually not from Portland. I also remember reading a piece that said while PPD claims their budget was severely slashed over the years it was actually the opposite, but wasnโt able to find another story for confirmation. I did not see the interview about them lessening coverage, but I had suspected they would do something like that ๐
I think society still needs some type of police force but would agree these clowns need to go and someone more competent needs to be there.
