    I hate to be a contrarian (or do I?), but is being up to date on your property taxes a new​ requirement for getting a building permit?

    [ETA}

    OK, in Minneapolis, they have to prepay the second half property taxes to get a demolition permit. This is not new, nor is it common.

    In other words, Minneapolis was leftist and anti-business before this mess and simply remains so.

    I've never actually dealt with one...I just hear the horror stories.

    I was on the board of one of those years ago. I mainly got on there to keep things sane. Like Jedi said, a lot of Karens. Busy bodies who think you should do everything the way they do it. And they tend to like increasing dues.

    We have over 800 homes in ours. The Board of directories is more than happy to say, "Paint it whatever color you want." or, "talk to you neighbor and sort it out yourself."

    "We want the streets plowed for every snowflake! We want security patrols! We want the tennis courts repaired!"
    Fine. Then make sure you vote in favor of a dues increase.


    There's one Karen who complains about everything, then complains that she doesn't get invited to sit on committees. Some people are thick headed.

    How can something be simultaneously amazing and not surprising?

    State police pull troopers out of Portland protest coverage, return them to regular assignments

    Oregon State Police on Thursday pulled out the approximately 100 troopers helping both federal officers and Portland police in responding to nightly protests in the city that have often ended in confrontations with demonstrators and arrests.

    State police committed to two weeks “and that two weeks ended today,” said spokesman Capt. Timothy R. Fox.
    ...
    “The Oregon State Police is continually reassessing our resources and the needs of our partner agencies and at this time we are inclined to move those resources back to counties where prosecution of criminal conduct is still a priority,” he said.

    Why put officers' lives on the line if the people causing the risk are just caught and released?

    Maybe the thing to do is remove all help from Portland. Just let them wallow in the world they propose. Until the residents cry out and demand their leaders put an end to it.

    Jamil is spot-on; until the majority of the Portland residents want to change, and take steps to implement that change, nothing from the outside can help or change how the city government operates. But the change will have to come from within.

    Sadly for them they may not have the ability to do so for some time even if they have the desire.

    Welcome to Socialistland.

    The terror will continue until all things owned by others are claimed by those who covet them. "Those" people probably had a nicer car/house/TV/etc. so "they" deserved it...and their little dog too.
