    Portland REFUNDS the police

    Portland REFUNDS the police

    A city without proper police numbers would eventually have a rise in crime. Any intelligent person can figure this out..Other cities, like LA and NYC, are also adding money back into police coffers

    Portland REFUNDS the police: Department gets an extra $5.2M as city faces greatest cop shortage in decades and record number of homicides after slashing $15M from the budget over Defund the Police movement

    City Council voted Wednesday to add back $5.2M of the $15M it cut last year

    The 'defund the police' budget slash got rid of school and transit officers

    Portland broke 66 homicides this year, the highest number since 1987

    City officials are considering bringing back retired cops amid a staff shortage

    Other cities, like LA and NYC, are also adding money back into police coffers

      Portland and several other cities are going to find it's a lot easier to screw things up than it is to unscrew them.

        What happens when you let 25 yr. old pot heads dictate governing.

          Now let's see if the voters are smart enough to totally reject those pot heads.
