The owners of a Portland, Oregon, clothing store have closed the shop, blaming “unrelenting criminal behavior” in a note left on the door that also warned the far-left city is “in peril.”

Rains PDX has been burglarized 15 times in the last year and a half, its owner, Marcy Landolfo, told KATU.com. Damages from the break-ins, looted inventory, and the lawless environment of what may be America’s most liberal city prompted them to give up. Her insurance policy won’t even cover losses at this point, she said.

“Our city is in peril,” Landolfo wrote in a note affixed to the locked door. “Small businesses (and large) cannot sustain doing business, in our city’s current state. We have no protection, or recourse, against the criminal behavior that goes unpunished. Do not be fooled into thinking that insurance companies cover losses. We have sustained 15 break-ins … we have not received any financial reimbursement since the 3rd.”

Portland has seen a huge crime spike over the last few years and its downtown has not recovered since city officials allowed protesters to run amok in the summer of 2020. In addition to criminals, homeless people and drug addicts camp out on sidewalks and in other public spaces.

Landolfo told KATU.com merchants can’t survive the city’s lawless climate.

“It’s just too much with the losses that are not covered by insurance, the damages, everything. It’s just not sustainable,” Landolfo said. “The products that are being targeted are the very expensive winter products and I just felt like the minute I get those in the store they’re going to get stolen.”

Last month, beleaguered Mayor Ted Wheeler pledged to offer Business Repair Grants to help business owners fix damage from break-ins. But Landolfo said the offer was too little, and too late.

“Paying for glass that’s great, but that is so surface and does nothing for the root cause of the problem, so it’s never going to change,” she said.

Last week, acclaimed Salt & Straw ice cream shop said it was considering bailing on the city, citing rampant crime, drug use and homelessness.

“We would consider all options,” co-founder Kim Malek told Oregon Live. ‘We don’t have concrete plans. But our intention is to be at the table working with the city and county to find a solution and not move. Portland is part of the soul of our company. We love this city. This is about having a safe place for our team to work.”

Disney’s newest release “Strange World” has bombed so spectacularly at the box office that it is on track to lose $100 million — if not more — and some are wondering if executives planned that from the start.

According to a report from powerhouse entertainment outlet Variety, “Strange World” underperformed even the projected numbers that had already been revised downward — and did so in dramatic fashion.

Initial projections showed that Disney expected to take in $30-40 million over the long Thanksgiving holiday, which would not have been a huge opening but would have been much better than the $11.9 million made over the weekend — or the $18.9 million made through the five-day holiday break.

Those numbers land Disney’s newest offering solidly among the worst opening weekends in modern history. The 2021 musical “Encanto,” for example, brought in over $27 million over the weekend and $40 million over the long Thanksgiving weekend.

And if Variety’s assessment is accurate, the red ink “Strange World” is sinking into is only likely to get deeper.

“Normally this time of year, a Disney family film is the big draw,” Paul Dergarabedian, a senior Comscore analyst, explained. “It shows we’re still recovering and adapting to the constraints of the pandemic.”

But whether people are, as Dergarabedian suggested, still slow to get out in the numbers that they might have pre-pandemic or they simply were not interested in this particular offering, the end result is the same: the people aren’t flocking to see “Strange World.”

Variety’s estimate, based on the lack of buzz surrounding the film’s release — coupled with reviews that aren’t likely to bring more viewers in — is that “Strange World” will fall far short of the $360 million Disney needs to just break even.

And with the movie’s poor box office performance already evident, some are beginning to speculate that executives expected it to fail.

“Saw Strange World and I’ll be damned, Disney Animation actually had a character that wasn’t just lip service for online articles but now I wonder if that is the reason for the weak marketing/merch for this film,” @Saberspark tweeted. “My theory: the execs want this film to go under the radar.”

Several of the comments responding to @saberspark made similar suggestions, observing that few trailers for “Strange World” had made it into other releases and questioning whether this film’s lackluster performance — along with pre-release backlash over an overtly gay teen character and the relatively poor showing made by Pixar’s “Lightyear” — might be used as an excuse to move away from LGBTQ themes in future content.
