If that's the case, I say the police should avoid putting themselves at risk and let the rioters burn it all down. Show the public what things will be like when these insane politicians who are more obsessed with image than safety make these sort of decisions.
At this point, perhaps you should leave, if you can.
You and the people like you (i.e., civilized people) are apparently not a majority there, as your own government, elected by the people you share the city with, is explicitly saying they're not going to prosecute the rioters.
A place like that needs people like you to pay for it all, it's the only reason they can afford to act like this. So stop doing that, and leave.
I'm sure he will prosecute each of these things. He will just not prosecute it with antifa and blm-thugs.
Making it official enables him to have his cake and eat it too, because all of these things are still against the law and he will really enjoy prosecuting them selectively and with extreme prejudice.

Fuck that bring in the Storm Troopers.
I want some broken skulls in the streets from the feds and an absolute bloodbath.
If he won't enforce the few people being arrested felony convictions I hope the feds come in and just completely go over the top.
These are not revolutionaries, these are LARPers. A few missing teeth and they'll be at home crying on Reddit, not in the streets.
I want my fucking city back.
Yeah, but that doesn't fix the core of the issue.
Those retards don't learn until they have to deal with it. So hold them to their own standards.
They won't deal with it...that's the point.
They don't pay taxes they live with their parents and leech unemployment. I pay for this shit not them.
I think he means the voters of Portland who seem to allow these piece of shit DAs to do this kind of thing.

We've done that for 40 years instead of fighting....we're running out of places to retreat.
Andy should get an award and recognition for his work at the end of all of this shit.
He'll be suicided at some point. Exposes too many uncomfortable things.
It'll happen when he gets too close to the funding or coordination of the rioting.
At that point, refund the residents, and let them have free season on commies. The neighborhood can dispose of the bodies.
I can already smell the ashes down here in southwest Oregon.
Let it burn.

... and how does this square with the "peaceful protesters" narrative?
Or is this just a case of "Your elected official is asserting that 2+2=5, you will comply, peasant"
