City of Portland makes arrests, tells homeless protesters to leave City Hall

“I also have an increasing concern about the safety of both the protestors and the general public.”

After two weeks of protesting, homeless residents camping out in front of Portland City Hall were told Saturday that they will have to move. via NWCN.com

They should move the homeless down to the new illegal alien day labor center the city is paying for with tax dollars.

Money spent on the illegals could fund some homeless shelters instead.

Why should working people provide a place for these people to live????
I work for my necessities...they should too...or not have them. It's just that simple.
Oh wait...in a Socialistic society everyone gets the same thing, whether you work or not. and since portland is RUN by socialists, I can see why the homeless think they have a RIGHT to housing at the expense of others.
What a bunch of BS this is.

Becasue you owe me. Where's my handout, where's my check. You are willing to give to illegals, why not me?

Becasue Mayor Potter is pandering for the illegal immigrant vote; most homeless don't vote.
