So from what I understand, 90% of that damage was on the first day of the riot, and was cleaned up pretty quickly afterwards. The closest you can come to saying Portland was "on fire" or "destroyed" was a small portion of the city for one or two days. During June, protests steadily died down (and were far more peaceful) until Trump sent in the feds, and that exploded protests yet again (THANKS, TRUMP!!!). However, the damage was largely focused on one specific block and courthouse. 99.9% of the city was fine.

Reminder that I responded to Lostnfound calling the protests a "takeover" of the city. The protests failed to "overtake" one ******* courthouse. Portland was and is fine.

And by the way, the riots caused 300 thousand dollars in damage to public buildings!!!! Don't look into the fact that in 2020 ALONE, the city of Portland paid out 1.14 million in lawsuits filed against the police. That's money stolen from average people because of police misconduct. Maybe focus on that instead?

Portland has been savaged over 40 times in less than 2 years. Please remove your head from the sand, and just look on U T, or any half say website

This is on the Cath Schools and their system(s)

but our rate of violent crime per capita is about a tenth of what it is in the US.

We have never had many mass shootings in our schools, nor mass shootings in our malls, and we have never told colored people to sit at the back of the bus. That's because we are more civilized

This is from Newsweek, and is as of Aug 2020

In Portland, 76 Nights of Protests Leads to 550 Arrests and More Than $20 Million in Damage

https://www.newsweek.com/portland-76-nights-protests-leads-550-arrests-more- $20-million-damage-1524672

$20 million is a lot more than $300,000. and that figure is total baloney

but go ahead. discredit the source. Hide your head in the sand.

BTW most of those arrested in the riots were kicked loose. This backs my statement that the Democrats don't care about YOUR well being, but since you are one of them.. this is more wasted time

Sad that you have no clue to what is happening in your own country. You have been blinded

PORTLAND, Ore. — The Portland Business Alliance has released a statement detailing economic damages due to riots in the last few weeks. The numbers come from a survey conducted with downtown business owners.
PBA says the downtown area has lost more than $23 million - $4 million from physical damages, and $18 million in lost revenue.

Canada also invests in poorer students to ensure that there is a more equal quality of education, You also pay your teachers more and ensure that the best teachers are in classrooms spread out across poverty lines. You also do a really good job of integrating migrant children into your classrooms - and those children perform well in testing.

I think that you might support big government, higher pay for teachers, investments in poorer students, and immigration! Your successful, smart country certainly does!

Then you don't know me at all, but we elect the liberals just like the US elects the Dem's.. I have never voted left and you probably got that figured already

I'm a bit confused. Many posters here have said a Canadian's opinion about America doesn't matter, yet while Trump was POTUS, many of those same posters kept clamoring how nobody else in the World liked him. Why did it matter what non-Americans thought then, but not now?

(FWIW, I said it didn't matter then, and it doesn't matter now.)
