Total fuckery.... so the lesson here is for PPB: don't bring a gun to a screwdriver fight.

Never, ever call the Portland Police Bureau. They will not solve anything. They will solve no crimes.

If you're lucky, they'll "take a report," tell you they really can't do anything "because politicians won't let them" and leave.

If you're not so lucky, your plea for help will get you a bullet.
