Critics were both unsurprised and angered by the latest unchecked criminal activity reported in Portland, Ore., on Tuesday, with many calling it a "normal day" in a liberal-run city that has largely hamstrung its police.
"So a normal day in Portland," Fox News contributor Guy Benson tweeted.
Last year's protests against police brutality were first spurred by the murder of George Floyd by a Minneapolis policeman, followed by other high-profile, police-involved deaths and incidents. During one interval last summer, Portland weathered over 90 consecutive days of unrest. Additionally, the number of homicides in Portland this year has surpassed its previous annual record of 66 in 1987.
