Good luck doing that in Oregon, we've been trapped in corrupt mail-voting for years hence the Deep Blue tyranny of Portland-Eugene.

The businesses downtown are probably hoping that their businesses get burned down so that they can collect insurance money and gtfo of Portland.

Instead many of them are sunk into a 5 year commerical lease that sees 10% traffic, and they can't get out without going through bankruptcy.

Edit: I still bet that the employees at those places vote Democrat the rest of their lives.

As a small business owner, we hopped weather the storm. Now we have hired an attorney to get us out of our lease because the government has prevented us from being able to conduct business.

Talk to an attorney about “Force Majeure” or “Frustration of Purpose” to get out of the lease.

Inaction has consequences, I hope the people behind those businesses receive compensation.

Such an interesting opportunity if they can flip RED.

Tourism impacted severely in my opinion. What a dumbass way to destroy a premier American vacation destination.
No, taxpayers outside of Portland are not responsible for this garbage. There are so countless alternate travel spots that Portland will only slightly be missed.

Leftist policy including the "idea" of defunding law enforcement is leftist destruction and a most memorable violation of our American rights. This is what will be reflected on in the future above all.

My heart goes out to Oregon based Trump supporters caught up in this tragedy through no fault of their own.

And you know most of these business owners have voted Democrat and will probably continue to vote Democrat forever. Liberalism really is a mental disorder.
