Exactly. Some people just can’t help themselves with the “what aboutism”
We’re not comparing Baltimore and Portland. And if you think there’s no bad parts of portland? Okay… walk around down on Oxford st looking like you have money, maybe with a Gucci or Louie bag, get back to me…

Portland is pretty safe compared to how it was 25 years ago. FSU and PSU ran the streets. OutLaws and Iron Horsemen shooting at each other in tattoo shops… I’m a delivery driver in Portland and will say even the loser druggys from Elm to Oxford are pretty harmless

Yeah I suppose. Speaking of fsu, I spotted one of their members riding a motorcycle around when it was -15 a few weeks back. The meth has to be super strong these days

Sadly, using whataboutisms is common whenever I, or anyone else, brings up that Maine is not a crime-free state or, in this case, Portland is a bad city. They always have to bring up an entirely different city in an entirely different state that...well, most of the time, is more dangerous than anything Maine has to offer, just because...I guess they have to be right or something. It's funny to watch but also sad at the same time.
You're not gonna bait me into talking about cities or states I've never been to and their crime stats that I know nothing about. Not happening.

“Oh you think portland has bad areas?! How about I bring up two cities that are in the top ten for crime rates in America!!!”
