Portland is still dealing with the effects of _decriminalizing open-air drug use_ . Portland’s “Live and Let Live” approach to people with substance abuse problems has led to the massive homeless encampments and filth on the streets there. What a nightmare.
We did not vote to have people use drugs on the street. The police where supposed to get them help after 3? warnings. The police need to prove they did their part. Another failure.
It seems the owner called many times to no avail. It's only when the local news starts making the law enforcement and city look like they're not doing their jobs that they do something. Maybe that's the answer. Use local news for situations like this to embarrass the city for their lack of help. $30,000 a year in taxes and no help? These people lasted far longer than I would have. I hope they can remain there successfully if that's what they want to do. Maybe they would do better with a food truck.

🍥THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God is saving man from the imminent destruction of this old world" (The Church of Philadelphia has taken shape: only because of the grace and mercy of God. The hearts of many saints had love for God, who did not hesitate in their spiritual journey. Oh, Almighty God! Now you are the one who opened our spiritual eyes, allowing the blind to see, the lame to walk and the lepers to be healed. You are the one who opened the window to the sky, allowing to understand the mysteries of the spiritual realm. We are your witnesses! You underwent the resurrection from the dead, the suffering of crucifixion, the joys and sorrows of human life, and persecution and poverty; You experienced and tasted the pain of the human world, age abandoned You. You made everything, You will shape Your life in us; the price You paid with Your blood, sweat and tears made the saints strong. We are the product of Your painstaking efforts, we are the price You paid. Now You have perfected all the Church-the Church of Philadelphia--and thus fulfilled Your 6,000-year plan of rule. We have come to know the practical true God, have lived His words, recognized our own tasks and duties, and done all we can to devote ourselves to the Church. They practice the truth immediately after understanding it. All our own ideas, understandings, opinions, and secular activities disappear like a bubble like smoke. How can we not dance and sing praises, offer our praises, offer a new hymn? In these kinds of praise there is joy, and there is anointing, there is power in praise, and there is faith in praise, and there is new knowledge. Actively cooperate with God, engage in service and become one, fulfill the purpose of Almighty God, hasten to become a holy spiritual body, trample Satan, and end his destiny.) Almighty God said "The CHURCH of PHILADELPHIA has been SHAPED: ONLY BECAUSE of the GRACE and MERCY of GOD.

There is. It's called taxes. Unfortunately the organizers of this "GoFundMe" do not give 2 fentanyl poops and squander the money while ignoring the problems.
Spread Clorox II Powdered Bleach around the property. Homeless people can't stand the smell and will move on. We inherited a home 2 blocks from the ocean in Long Beach and homeless people started camping around our property and we scattered the dry bleach around and they never came back.......

@@YA-qj8fx it's a fair assumption
Absolutely disgusting. WTF are property taxes for?
Doesn't matter if you're immigrants or locals, white, black or whatever, you're just a milking cow to the government.
To line the pockets of the bureaucrats. Most of that money is now being used internally, not for the locals.
Chinese debt
Time to sell and move to Florida!
"redistribution." That would be the answer of the lefties who think this is great.
Had to pay 30k in property taxes a year, and the city can't move the encampment?!?!?! Fuuuuuuuuk Thhaaaaaaaat!!
I think the bad publicity for the city brought by the TV station did more than the 911 call.
Stop calling them "homeless" and call it what it is... "a drug addict encampment".
Exactly. I work with a shelter 3 days a week. These people are all POS
Drug addiction is not the only life circumstance that can lead to homelessness. 😎 😎
They are just as American ad the business owners.
@@MortenNilsen-i2g True - but substance abuse is the most common reason. Mental health is the other and is often times exacerbated by the former.
What an ego driven comment. I'm sure you've done nothing to contribute to helping addicts have you?
Wake up Portland and start voting for someone else.
DON'T VOTE FOR MIKE SCHMIDT!
I think Mike Schmidt is packing his bags. He has single handedly ruined a once fine city. Well, can't leave behind Ted Wheeler and all the other Demonrats.
Or Vasquez
Portland decriminalized public drug use. So, what’s happening there today was predictable. People from other parts of the U.S. who wanted to shoot up drugs in public, migrated to Portland.
Your politicians will never save you. Take a stand..protest for something REAL
Boy are you new
Shame on you, Portland.
The homeless are like squatters in a house. They have more rights than the taxpaying owners
They sure do have money for drugs and spray paint.
@@vihtoripuurola3775 They all get social security or keep getting stimulus checks. They probably have more money in their bank accounts then you and I.
@@vihtoripuurola3775 They did not pay for the spray paint, they walked into WM and take it.
@@SM-tg5pi All the stores here in the Seattle area have spray paint locked down tight.
Then how come they were the ones who got the boot? Comment on the video you're actually watching instead of using buzz words to say nothing.
This is pure insanity!
How can a city allow this to happen to a tax paying business?
Shame on you city of Portland for allowing this. Imagine this being your business.
over all everything is getting better , Keep on Voting Blue #Biden/Harris
Coming to a city near you!🫵
@@copyprint-fz2hb- really? Higher taxes, food, gas, utilities, & housing costs ... billions given to other countries while crime is rising, there's a mental health & drug problems ... + open borders costing citizens millions to feed, cloth, house, & provide them free health care? Get bent! I'm changing my vote ... so is anyone with at least one active brain cell.
That’s what the Pacific Northwest is for, camping and outdoor activities so what’s the problem with these people all they’re doing is campaign and enjoying themselves
Blue is the problem...@@copyprint-fz2hb
This is horrible. This man is old and is still working hard to make a living. Paying 30k property taxes and the city completely ignored him and let the BS happened until the TV crew helped him. What a shame! I will never ever go to portland again. Thank you KATV news for stepping in to help small business owner!
I think $30,000 in property taxes is ridiculous.
Those taxes are probably buying those crackheads needles and tents...
🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
Glad they got help...such hard workers.
If you go there, stop at his restaurant and enjoy the food.
How can they camp on private company? Ridiculous!
This is disgusting. Shame on Portland!
It has absolutely none . I've been here 75 % of my life . People here are mentally ill and incredibly narcissistic
Biden hates Asians!!!!
For what getting the place cleaned up the next day?
and the voters
They been every where, i live in sf these can be found in downtown streets
In the twisted, bizarro world of Portland it's more important that we enable addiction through illegal camping than it is to protect a small business owner and his customers from crime.
This is what happens when you elect people who take their ideology from blue haired teenagers on Twitter 🤷♂️
Why not allow the homeless park area? It beats this as an alternative now
They literally came and cleaned it up the next day.
@@TrentAdam Only after it got bad publicity on the local news. It sounds like the problem has been going on for months, and not a finger was lifted till it was brought into the public eye...
@@NotTheRealRustyShackleford Yeah but that's because they were already busy doing it elsewhere. Do you think they were just sitting around instead of going there?

Thank you for helping and putting a spot light on this!
imagine it took a news team 😳 to cover this story just to get some justice. shame on you mayor
Sue the city.
It is on private property, so may ha e to consider another option.
Also they took action all ready and helped that all the judge would see in court.
That gentleman was honest saying it was the best Chinese food but he understood why people were hesitant to come there
That’s so sad. They didn’t deserve to be held hostage by the homeless. The city should fix their building and remove all the graffiti.
And pay for re paving and re stripping
That sounds pretty conservative to me, Portland is progressive ok? Fixing problems they created? That's not gonna happen
Makes me so mad. That poor couple. 😢
Having lived in Portland for 8+ years, this decline in true governance, safety, etc is why we left
Good for you!
you didnt intially voted for this did you?
THANK YOU, KATU NEWSCREW, for helping this Couple get the help they needed to protect their Business and Livelihood.🌟🌟🌟🌟🧡
$30,000 annual property taxes! They must be running a thriving restaurant to pay such an outrageous amount.
The sad thing is, as soon as it gets cleaned up, they just return again and again
True
Maybe things will improve if they finish building the fence
@@jakeforrest hopefully things improve for them
They should have never been allowed to in the first place!
Biden hates Asians!
Imagine your restaurant and livelyhood being treated like a public toilet, being stolen from and vandalized and what not. Makes me so a n g r y that this happens to good people.
Angers me that people often have more empathy for the people stealing and vandalizing than the victims. See it on social media all too often
@@siiiiiuu7 Exactly!
And paying 30k a year for the privilege
@@siiiiiuu7 So true
that's what happens when you set up shop in a hellhole like portland.
The only thing about addicts is they see kindness as weakness and take full advantage of everyone and everything enough is enough.
It’s like the city wants this to happen. What is actually going on? This is lunacy!
People need to stop paying taxes.
I would not suggest that, The IRS has hired and armed 87,000 of new agents, recently stockpiled ammunition. do some research Dave..and Do not trust snopes .... deep state puppets to hide the truth
If I were them, I'd pay the Asian gangs the $30K to clean it up.
@@feldwebel999 that's why people pay taxes is for safety and security. People shouldn't have to play some scumbags to deal with it.
Sure. No more city infrastructure, education, transportation, refuse collection, law enforcement or emergency services. What could go wrong? 🙄
@@CaptainHowdy-c3yhere’s an example of what’s actually going wrong…. Watch the video
Portland is still dealing with the effects of _decriminalizing open-air drug use_ . Portland’s “Live and Let Live” approach to people with substance abuse problems has led to the massive homeless encampments and filth on the streets there. What a nightmare.
The same people who voted for that, voted for measure 114 they wanna trade our guns rights for drugs rights and I won’t standby, I’ll continue to vote
Won’t work for the Xylazine because it’s not a real drug. It’s horse tranquilizer!!! Humans cannot get high on horse tranquilizer!!! End of story!!!
We did not vote to have people use drugs on the street. The police where supposed to get them help after 3? warnings. The police need to prove they did their part. Another failure.
4 more years of Backfire Biden!🤣🤣🤣
Thankgod Vancouver (Canada) just ended the open air drug use policy after 1 year of that failed social experiment 🙃
Paid $30k tax, and the city government do nothing.
$30K isn't much for a small business. I know people who pay more.
And they are Actual Americans, NOT CCP members.
Thank you to the good people that helped
It seems the owner called many times to no avail. It's only when the local news starts making the law enforcement and city look like they're not doing their jobs that they do something. Maybe that's the answer. Use local news for situations like this to embarrass the city for their lack of help. $30,000 a year in taxes and no help? These people lasted far longer than I would have. I hope they can remain there successfully if that's what they want to do. Maybe they would do better with a food truck.
The owner is too old to start all over. This is very sad
Man, this is sad, as a former restaurant owner. I understand their struggle. They are hard working people.
WTF. This is unacceptable.. where's the justice for these hardworking Americans
This is the price of freedom. Either leave them alone to pull themselves up by their bootstraps or admit that the meritocracy is not working. Pick one.
So glad the TV station did a story on these hard working people. That's the only way it was addressed by the city personal.
🍥THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God is saving man from the imminent destruction of this old world"
(The Church of Philadelphia has taken shape: only because of the grace and mercy of God. The hearts of many saints had love for God, who did not hesitate in their spiritual journey. Oh, Almighty God! Now you are the one who opened our spiritual eyes, allowing the blind to see, the lame to walk and the lepers to be healed. You are the one who opened the window to the sky, allowing to understand the mysteries of the spiritual realm. We are your witnesses! You underwent the resurrection from the dead, the suffering of crucifixion, the joys and sorrows of human life, and persecution and poverty; You experienced and tasted the pain of the human world, age abandoned You. You made everything, You will shape Your life in us; the price You paid with Your blood, sweat and tears made the saints strong. We are the product of Your painstaking efforts, we are the price You paid. Now You have perfected all the Church-the Church of Philadelphia--and thus fulfilled Your 6,000-year plan of rule. We have come to know the practical true God, have lived His words, recognized our own tasks and duties, and done all we can to devote ourselves to the Church. They practice the truth immediately after understanding it. All our own ideas, understandings, opinions, and secular activities disappear like a bubble like smoke. How can we not dance and sing praises, offer our praises, offer a new hymn? In these kinds of praise there is joy, and there is anointing, there is power in praise, and there is faith in praise, and there is new knowledge. Actively cooperate with God, engage in service and become one, fulfill the purpose of Almighty God, hasten to become a holy spiritual body, trample Satan, and end his destiny.)
Almighty God said
"The CHURCH of PHILADELPHIA has been SHAPED: ONLY BECAUSE of the GRACE and MERCY of GOD. The HEARTS of so MANY HOLY ONES have LOVE for GOD, WHO DID NOT HESITATE in their SPIRITUAL JOURNEY. They are STRONG in their FAITH that the ONE TRUE GOD INCARNATED, that He is the RULER of the UNIVERSE, who COMMANDS ALL THINGS:
The HOLY SPIRIT STRENGTHENED it, it was as STABLE as a MOUNTAIN! 🙏
This will never change!
O, ALMIGHTY GOD! NOW it is you who OPENS our SPIRITUAL EYES, ALLOWING the BLIND to SEE, the LAME to WALK and the lepers to be HEALED. You are the one who OPENS the WINDOW in HEAVEN, ALLOWING the MYSTERIES of the SPIRITUAL realm to be revealed. TEACHED by Your HOLY WORDS and SAVED from our HUMAN nature, which SATAN CORRUPTED---such is Your IMMEASURABLE GREAT WORK and Your immeasurable GREAT MERCY. We are your witnesses! 🙏💐
You STAY STANDING for a LONG TIME, HUMBLELY and QUIETLY. YOU are SUBJECTED to LIFE to RESURRECT from DEATH, to the SUFFERING of CRUCIFIXION, to the JOYS and SORROWS of HUMAN LIFE, and to PERSECUTION and POVERTY; You have EXPERIENCED and TASTE the PAIN of the HUMAN WORLD, and TIME FORSAKES YOU.😪
GOD INCARNATE is GOD HIMSELF. For the WILL of GOD, You SAVE us from the DIRT HEAP, and YOU SUPPORT us WITH YOUR RIGHT HAND, and FREELY GIVE us Your GRACE. You MADE EVERYTHING, you will mold Your LIFE into us; the PRICE You PAID with Your BLOOD, SWEAT and TEARS is ESTABLISHING the HOLY. 🙏
We are the PRODUCT of Your VERY CAREFUL EFFORT, we are the PRICE You PAID. O, ALMIGHTY GOD!
Because of Your KINDNESS and MERCY, Your JUSTICE and MAJESTY, Your HOLYNESS and HUMILITY ALL THE PEOPLE WILL BOW BEFORE YOU and WORSHIP YOU FOREVER. ☀️
NOW You have COMPLETED ALL the CHURCH---the CHURCH of PHILADELPHIA--and thus FULFILLED Your 6,000-year REIGN PLAN. May the HOLY ONES HUMBLELY SUBMIT BEFORE You, connected to the SPIRIT and OBEYING with LOVE, connected to the FOUNTAIN. ☀️
The LIVING WATER of LIFE FLOWS unceasingly, and WASHES and CLEANSES ALL MUD and DIRTY WATER in the CHURCH, again PURIFYING Your TEMPLE. We have PRACTICALLY KNOWN the TRUE GOD, LIVED His WORDS, KNOWN our OWN DUTIES and DUTIES, and DONE ALL WE CAN to SPEND OURSELVES for the CHURCH. 🙏
Always be SILENT BEFORE You, we MUST, WE MUST FOLLOW the WORK of the HOLY SPIRIT, OTHERWISE we WILL OBSTRUCT Your WILL. The HOLY ONES RULE, and the STRENGTHS of some WILL SUPPLEMENT the WEAKNESSES of others. They can WALK in the SPIRIT at ALL TIMES, ILLUMINATED and ILLUMINATED by the HOLY SPIRIT. They ACT IMMEDIATELY AFTER UNDERSTANDING it. They FOLLOW the NEW LIGHT and FOLLOW the FOOTSTEPS of GOD. 🙏
ACTIVELY WORK with GOD; to LET Him be in control is to WALK WITH Him. 🙏☀️
ALL our OWN IDEAS, UNDERSTANDINGS, OPINIONS, and SECULAR ACTIVITIES DISAPPEAR like a puff of SMOKE. ALLOWING GOD to RULE SUPREMELY in our SPIRIT, WALKING with Him and thus SUBJECTING, OVERCOMING the WORLD, and FREELY FLYING and RELEASING our SPIRIT: This is what comes out when ALMIGHTY GOD becomes KING. 🙏
How can we not DANCE and SING PRAISES, OFFER our PRAISES, OFFER NEW HYMNS? 🙏
There are REALLY many WAYS to PRAISE GOD: CALLING HIS NAME, THINKING of Him, READING PRAYERS, SHARING, REFLECTING and MEDITATING, PRAYING, and SINGING PRAISES. ☀️
In SUCH KINDS of PRAISE THERE is JOY, and there is ANOINTING with OIL, there is POWER in PRAISE, and there is FAITH in PRAISE, and there is NEW KNOWLEDGE. 🙏
COOPERATE ACTIVELY with GOD, RELATIONSHIP in SERVING and be ONE, FULFILL the PURPOSE of ALMIGHTY GOD, QUICKLY become a HOLY SPIRITUAL BODY, TREAD on Satan, and END his FATE. The CHURCH of PHILADELPHIA has been TAKEN into the PRESENCE of GOD and SHOWN in His GLORY. 🙏
From "The WORD Appears in the Flesh". holy book
Fulfilled in "In the beginning He was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God" (John 1:1). ... and " When I looked up, someone handed me a book wrapped in a scroll. I opened it and I read on both sides the prayers, lamentations, and curses." (Ezekiel 2:9-10). ... He added, "These are the true WORDS of GOD". "His clothing was stained with blood. He was called the "Word of God" (Rev. 19:9,13).
📥Calling and leading everyone to His lowered Kingdom or Church because it is still standing on earth in the holy place in the air/ youtube "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD 💐 this is the fulfillment of what He said to Peter 2,000 years ago, recorded in (Matthew 16:18'19).
This is the the only Church of each one of our spirit that we must listen to or eat and drink like how we eat, dress and sleep every day so that He can guide us and change us by rejecting the evil attached by satan so as to be perfect,
having attained eternal life that will enter the coming replacement of the New Heaven and New Earth. 💌
Steve, thanks for helping this business.
Nobody else will care.
The city should be helping the taxpayers not the news, the news just embarrassed the city for doing nothing
The owners should sue the city.
Thanks to the media for bringing this up. These days, it seems that people in charge needs to be publicly shamed before any action is taken.
Thank you for being persistent and brave. It helps others facing the same problem. This complete story and its resolution - it is a sign of hope for others, especially in Ct.
Needles and feces by the front door???
Yikes!!!! 😱
I’m so glad the news station was able to assist the couple save their retirement business!
They oughta pass a law that if the city doesn’t provide services to you, you don’t pay sales tax.
I thought you don’t pay sales tax in Portland tho
??? That would also include children and retired senior citizens who will now be denied access to public services if such a stupid law exists.
Old people love voting & children are basically property
I have no more empathy for the homeless because of stories like this all the time.
This BS needs to end.
And the food there is excellent.
Apparently, 311 is the number you call when you just want to voice your frustrations with no expectations of anything being done.
Apparently so is 911.🤨
The Dumbocrap Party Logo,do nothing Know nothing,solve nothing.
This is insane
And this is why nobody want's them near by, this is far far more than being homeless, stealing from and damaging others property is a crime and should be dealt as that, poor restaurant owner
Please , come to live in Iraq 🇮🇶 during Assura , the food is FREE for 60 days .
This should never be allowed. I hope they get all the help they need.

@@yettimannettii2039 u can't help people who don't want to be helped. U wanna help. Tougher penalties for drug use.

The Portland city council wanted all this bullshit…they buried their own city and they don’t care…almost makes you think that it was on purpose. Same thing in every major city in this country….
This is disgusting! How can the city allow this
THEY DO NOT CARE! SO DISGUSTING!!
They don't care about people on the street so why should people on the street care about your life your job or your business?
I live on a different Country but I’ll thank 2kato for helping out these restaurants owners. If not for you these owners night mare will never end. Great reporting.
This is like owning a home and someone pitches a tent in your front yard and no matter who you call no one can help you get rid of them. It’s so sad!!!!!
Right and if you try and forcibly move them you're the one that goes to jail. Welcome to the liberal hellhole
The fact that this is allowed to continue is like something out of the Babylon bee ! It seems unreal but democrats put so many obstacles in front of you it’s impossible to survive legally as a small business. Stop voting for the goofiest or most gayest mayors and city councilman vote for a businessman that can turn the city around and make us proud of it again.
Unacceptable by the mayor and city officials for leaving the restaurant owners helpless when they needed help.
I live in Kansas City. We have had homeless camp out behind our house wreaking havoc, fighting all hours. Screaming at our dogs when they bark to protect us. They move them out and they camp in other areas around our property. It is a vicious cycle and it sucks!
They need to file a class action lawsuit!
It is absolutely UNACCEPTABLE, that the city does not intervene. Businesses and tax payers should not have to put up with this!
They should stop paying taxes to the City of Portland, which is in breach of contract, by not providing the services it used to.
Yeah the govt isnt some private contractor , if you dont pay your taxes on time youll paying penalties
Yeah, then they get evicted
Great idea! I would put that money into escrow and go to court to fight!
*I don't have compassion for junkies. They don't want the help. They choose to live Iike this*

If this story isn't on the news, the city would still dragging their feet instead of doing what they suppose to do. The $30K property tax a year is insane.
But they need to stay gone! Struggle is not over
Can the community help? Donate some time and materials to help clean up the property?
The community can help and vote red next election.
Help by getting your heads out of your behinds and stop tolerating this behavior like cowards
The "community" helping is exactly the problem. The "community" of Portland is the problem, they think they are the solution with all the wokeness, but it creates the problem.
I have deep compassion for homeless people who respect other people's lives, but none for the drug addicted who do not care that they also hurt others.
They had to call the news to get the job done, thank you Steve!
They said 311 is the wrong number for private property complaints, nobody explained that to the business owner.
