Dori: Durkan’s failures, political correctness caused downtown Seattle shooting
My Northwest ^ | 23 January 2020 | Dori Monson

Political correctness and liberalism are literally killing people. This downtown Seattle shooting is an extension of all of that.

It’s about squishy prosecutors and judges who let repeat offenders walk free. It is about a city council that has designed this because anarchy will allow them to rebuild the city in a socialist image.

Today, a woman is dead and seven others are injured. A 9-year-old remains in the hospital. It is shameful but unfortunately predictable, given who we have running things around here.

As soon as I heard about the downtown Seattle shooting, I wrote this tweet.

Witnesses describe scene of ‘chaotic’ downtown shooting....

Tonight's downtown shooting is the inevitable outcome after years of not letting cops do their job... of encouraging drug use - and the gang warfare that comes with it... and politics putting criminals above law-abiding citizens.

Durkan should resign. Our city has gone to hell

“Our city has gone to hell”

Seattle has been taken to hell by the same libtard policies that have taken all of the other cities they control to the same place.

Dori’s article destroys Seattle’s PC Culture. And he’s a Democrat.

When you legalize drugs as we effectively have done by not prosecuting personal possession of drugs, then drug dealers of course will provide those drugs

Six months ago, the courts were told to ignore arrests involving possession with 3 gr. heroin. That is 30 "doses".

Today that is 7gr.

You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure that 30 or 70 doses is more than a day or few day's amount for personal use.

Agreed. Same sort of thing is happening up here in nearby Toronto with the violence and mayhem going on with no end in sight.

Someone in government is getting paid well for instituting this policy.

the dyke mayor and her affirmative action police chief are indeed truly worthless... they can’t even protect the county courthouse that is also downtown. many businesses (e.g. barnes & noble, macys) are leaving fast.

Lots of (more) civil servants.

Rather than fix the problem through applying current laws, the liberals create "commissions" and new departments to study the problem. The city's head count has blossomed in the last 10 years but not proportional to the population growth.

The police department is about 2/3d the size it was in those 10 years.

to be honest, hasn’t Seattle had one pervert after another for a couple of decades now?

Remember one of the biggest deterrents in hand in the Virginia 2A ‘rally’ was the police beforehand had stated they would PROTECT the citizens, put up with no foolishness, and arrest any ‘mask wearers’ on the spot.

Any combination of the above will ensure the ‘arsewipes’ stay home.

Also having 20-30-40-50(whatever)thousand armed ‘Hill Billies, Rednecks’ (their perception of ‘Middle America’) etc in attendance will sort of keep the ‘bad guys’ away.

Bikers and AL/VFW/Patriot Riders sort of sent that point home-—when they started ‘protecting’ Military Funerals from the ‘Westboro Baptist Church thugs’, the harrassment stopped.

I heard a report that the 2 on the loose had over 100 arrests between them.

That’s why this story has fallen off the radar.

The two suspects in this downtown shooting have been arrested 44 times with 20 convictions and 21 times with 15 convictions.

I think I see the problem here...

Wow! Even the liberal hacks in Seattle are starting to figure it out. I guess the left is going too far for even Dori now.
