1638211117402185728 | HM... if 50% of @PortlandPolice arrests are unhoused people and 40% of @PDXFire reported fires in the city are unhoused communities... maybe that same percentage of these agencies' budgets should go to getting people housed instead of making the situation worse. https://t.co/lsqaex7GVm | 25 |

1639014694366363648 | @PPBCentral @PortlandPolice @PDXFire Did they "accidentally" forget which of the two pedals on the floor was the one that prevents them from crashing through buildings? Just because it isn't premeditated drunken super murder doesn't automatically make it a completely unavoidable act of providence (ie "accident"). | 19 |

1638212965118906368 | to break that down... @PortlandPolice = $249M x 50% = $124,500,000 @PDXFire = $170M x 40% = $68,000,000 so we should have $192,500,000 that goes to helping unhoused people instead of criminalizing them over and over and over. | 9 |
