Public Camping/Tent Ban Goes Into Effect in Portland, Oregon – But No One is Enforcing It
The city of Portland, Oregon has a new ban on tents and camping on public land that went into effect at the end of last week, but it’s not being enforced, according to reports.
This isn’t really surprising, given the size of the problem in Portland. If this was strictly enforced, the police would probably be doing nothing else all day.
Still, why would the city bother enacting a ban like this if they weren’t serious about enforcing it?
