I graduated UW in 1991, and even then the place was infested with intolerable dirty stinking hippies. South Parks drum circle meme is absolutely true

I was contracting in Waukesha WI once...I asked for some country ham in a grocery...They said they didn’t have that “brand”...I told him it wasn’t a brand, it was the way it was cured...He looked at me dumbfounded...

By 1980, we on the Olympic Pen were calling Seattle “The Far Side” after the bizarre comic strip. Was nice place in the 60s and 70s - after that it started to side down the slippery lane of leftism.

Bloomie ran as a Republican. And hoverned as a fiscal, law and order, anyi union conservative. He governed also as nanny state progressive. Not giving free stuff but insisting the peasants follow his rules on social and health matters.

When I was young I knew a guy who used to date this little blonde number who actually thought that quartz was a brand of watch.

It is largely a Godless wasteland, with a prevalently nihilistic ethos.

I have relatives there and hear the stories. Drug addicts roam the streets all over the city. You find yourself alone or leave your car unlocked at your own peril.

Not to mention his funding of Everytown for Gun Safety.

They keep asking, “What if Seattle is dying and we don’t even know it”. The answer is not that it is dying, but that it is dead - they are living in and walking on a corpse long dead from the strong scent of decay emanating from that video.

Worse, the leaders the Seattlites elected to run their city laugh in their face ... because they know the only alternative is electing a real Trump-supporting Republican - which is totally unacceptable to every one so it will continue. They are all stark raving mad.

In time, the city will become so terrible, the only way to fix it will be to raze the whole thing and start over.

Incredible story.
Hard to believe liberal Rhode island would come up with a solution like this.

Kevin, thanks for reminding us of this ugly national trend. Indeed, as our major cities become we should expect it is possible our nation will become.

If true, then our federal government might consider requiring basic apolitical standards each state would apply to its city government practices. If a state declined it would no longer be eligible for fed assistance monies.

Seattle has had an active and successful Left for at least the past 50+ years and it seems unlikely it will be outplayed in the absence of federal involvement.

This could be an opportunity for a busy man like Trump. Of course, the clock is running, see my tagline.

A warning.....a promise.....

Soon.

Revelation 22:12-21

12
“Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done.

13
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

14
“Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city.

15
Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

16
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.”

17
The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.

18
I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll.

19
And if anyone takes words away from this scroll of prophecy, God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City, which are described in this scroll.

20
He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.”
Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.

21
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s people. Amen.

The Holy Bible, New International Version® NIV®
