  • What the fuck? The bus station is a haven of homeless and has very few restaurants nearby.

    You are exaggerating the reality of Portland. This does not happen in broad daylight nearly as much as you claim it does. Sure, people dumpster dive, no biggie. They also glean and arrange for food pick up before it goes to the dumpster. Especially since most places lock their dumpsters.

    Also, there are a lot of homeless in P-town and many of them look like normal people.

    • It was where I was. I saw this while in town square where all the trains meet and there were plenty of restaurants. I was also in Gresham where a man with an electronic shaver approached me at 2am in the 7-11 parking lot wanting to give me a hair cut for $5.

      • Ah, Pioneer Square is not the bus station. And there are far more businessmen there than homeless. But I guess you see what you want.

        And never confuse Portland with Gresham.

        • I dont know where the actual bus station is. Thats just where I got off the bus. The only other places I went besides the square was Gresham area and Hillsboro/Forest Grove. All the garbage eating I saw was in the square and Gresham had more late night crackhead activity.

          • What bus? Maybe the Bolt bus. And why compare all of Portland to a transfer station and the city suburbs? Also, in this part of downtown all dumpsters are locked and mostly inaccessible to the public.

            Again, I think you are choosing to see this more than the reality of it happening.

            • I did take the bolt bus. Maybe the rest of town isnt like that but like I said I was only in town square and near the ends of where the red train goes.
