When the crime clock hit reset in Portland, a surprising sense of déjà vu struck on the very next day. Remember that touted 90-day reset designed to curb crime and homelessness? A three-month grand scheme that seemed to sweep problems under the rug and just as quickly, business owners watched them crawl back out. It's like an ineffectual, short-lived magic trick that no one is amazed by anymore. The harsh reality is, this quick-fix approach is as futile as trying to extinguish a forest fire with a water pistol. It's all fun and games until the party is over and the riff-raff is back in town. Emphasis patrols and the 'Safer Summer PDX' initiative temporarily held crime at bay, but it was like putting a band-aid on a bullet wound. And why wouldn't it? You can't expect a vigilant approach to be the silver bullet when the real issue is the urban decay that's been fueled by policies, or lack thereof. And the irony? The same homeowners who now can't sell their homes due to camping in front of their houses are the ones who voted for the same politicians that allowed these issues to snowball. But it's easy to cast stones and even easier to forget that one's vote does count. It's simple, if the root causes of homelessness, crime, and urban decay aren't tackled head-on, these issues will not only return, they will thrive. And, let's be honest, who would be shocked? Portland needs to address this urban blight with more than just temporary solutions and shiny 'resets'. Unless the city gets its act together, it will continue to teeter on the brink of complete breakdown, leaving everyone to wonder, "What about us?" #PortlandChaos, #UrbanDecay, #TimeForChange ?️ Merch - https://Store.ReasonableTV.com/ ?

Anheuser-Busch's decision to feature controversial transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney on limited-edition Bud Light cans has backfired, causing the company to lose more than $5 billion in value. The brewing giant aimed to boost its "woke" credentials by partnering with Mulvaney, who boasts over 10 million social media followers. However, the move has been met with widespread criticism, with some commentators questioning the relevance of the partnership for Bud Light's core demographic. Since announcing the partnership, the company's market capitalization has fallen by nearly 4%, dropping from $132.38 billion to $127 billion. Some bars across the United States have reportedly stopped serving Bud Light, while others, including celebrities such as Kid Rock, have publicly expressed their disapproval of the collaboration. Anheuser-Busch and Nike, another of Mulvaney's sponsors, have stood by the influencer despite the backlash, maintaining their commitment to inclusion and diversity. Critics, however, argue that the companies are prioritizing "wokeness" over common sense and alienating their core customer base. The controversy has raised questions about the effectiveness of such marketing strategies and the potential for a full-blown boycott of Anheuser-Busch products. ? JOIN our FREE Discord Community!

Retail giant Target has announced the closure of nine stores in several major cities, attributing the decision to escalating violence, theft, and organized retail crime. Yes, you read that right. Unlike other companies tip-toeing around the topic with PR-friendly language about "optimizing store locations" or "redeveloping retail footprint," Target candidly stated that their stores are closing because employees, vendors, and shoppers are not safe. It's as if common sense prevailed for a moment, and Target laid it all out there, citing a $500 million hit to their profitability due to lost or stolen inventory. The company even warned that some communities can't afford to spare the cops for extra security. How's that for progress in our so-called progressive cities? Target isn't the only one making such bold moves; CVS is also closing 900 stores over the next three years, for similar reasons. Locations affected include Harlem, Seattle, San Francisco, Oakland, and Portland—notice any patterns there? Sure, some say it's shocking, but is it really? The prevailing lack of safety and the erosion of law and order have made these decisions inevitable. So the next time you wonder why your favorite store in a bustling area is shutting down, perhaps consider the shopping spree some patrons are indulging in—just not the kind that benefits the store's bottom line. #TargetClosures #RetailCrime #ProgressiveFail ?? ??????? ???? ??????????+ ??? ?????????? ?????? ? https://ReasonableTV.com/ ?????????? 00:00 Introduction: Breaking Down Store Closures in Major Cities 01:00 Target's Justification: Why Stores Are Closing 03:00 Corporate Speak vs Reality: Deciphering Target's Statements 05:00 Cities Affected: Which Locations Are Seeing Closures 07:00 Other Retailers Affected: CVS Also Scaling Back 09:00 Geographical Patterns: Where Store Closures Are Most Common 11:00 Local Reactions: How Communities Feel About Closures 13:00 REI Pulls Out of Portland: What It Means 16:00 Inflation and Consumer Spending: The Larger Economic Context 18:00 Locked Merchandise Cases: The New Reality for Shoppers ?️ ????? - https://Store.ReasonableTV.com/ ? ???? our ????

Firearm enthusiasts in Oregon are flocking to gun stores as they wait to find out whether a federal judge will delay the start of a strict permit-to-purchase law before Thursday's deadline. "The parking lot has been a disaster," Northwest Armory owner Karl Durkheimer told Fox News. "The side streets around our place have been a disaster." Measure 114 passed with 50.65% of the vote last month. It bans ammunition magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds and mandates the creation of a permit-to-purchase system that includes fingerprinting and hands-on firearm training from an instructor who has been certified by law enforcement. The permits can cost up to $65 under the measure and last for five years with a new background check required for each gun purchase. Judge Karin J. Immergut heard more than two hours of arguments Friday relating to against the measure by the Oregon Firearms Federation, Sherman County Sheriff Brad Lohrey and a gun store owner. The suit alleges that both the magazine capacity limit and permit-to-purchase requirement violate the Second Amendment. The measure's sponsors hope it will , accidental deaths and suicides. Senior Assistant Attorney General Brian Simmonds Marshall argued in court documents that delaying the bill's start date would "likely result in unnecessary deaths" and hinder Oregon's efforts to "reduce the risk of a massacre within its borders." Immergut expects to make a decision early this week on whether the law should be delayed, according to . - - - Sign Up For Exclusive Episodes At: https://reasonabletv.com/ LIKE & SUBSCRIBE for new videos every day. https://www.youtube.com/c/NewsForReasonablePeople - - - Reasonable+: Become a Reasonable+ member to gain access to the entire uncensored catalog: https://reasonabletv.com/ - - - Ways to Follow! * Rumble - https://rumble.com/c/NewsForReasonablePeople * Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/newsforreasonablepeople * iTunes - https://apple.co/2MkFziJ * Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2Dh8EoL - - - #Reasonable #News ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0wewxO5bE0
