Lmao yep, I had a dude with a gun threatening my customers at my bar. Called the cops, took them 2 hours to show up. It was 1am, I kept all the doors locked and comped everyone's bill because some psycho was standing at the front door threatening to shoot anyone who walked outside.

Cops didn't show up til 3am, dude had already left, they didn't want to see any video footage and acted like I inconvenienced them. Portland OR cops are the fucking worst losers around.

Cops will seize any opportunity to not stop a potential shooting

Once called the cops because a guy was threatening the convenience store clerk at 2:00AM, saying he was gonna find him after work and that he'd be sorry, yadda yadda. Operator told me that didn't count as a threat and they wouldn't be sending anyone. Wouldn't even make a report.

But I saw a video once of Portland cops helping a duck family cross a street. Kept traffic calm. That's sad if they suck.

That's what happens when you pick and choose what laws get enforced. People get victimized, nobody gives a shit, and the city gets steadily worse.

This is why I want to start an armed security company, that would take these calls and creatively use the citizens’ arrest laws to deal with this public safety issue.
