I see Gosettee has a Sudanese challenging him for re-election....Gilmay something or other...he’s being well funded by those across the country, likely Sudanese and muslim commuinities.

People did do something vaguely analogous in the many millions — it was called septic tanks.

If an area’s storm sewers drain to the ocean, then ocean water can be used.

The ocean contains the literal and proverbial whale poop. It’s because of other ocean flora and fauna that our oceans remain oceans and not become poop soups.

But it is very curious how the environmentalists of California might answer to this challenge. Will they bow to principle, or to politics?

Snopes: No, Seattle Doesn’t Refuse to Hose Poop from Sidewalks Because It’s ‘Racially Insensitive’

Snopes is a riot. They rate this as “FALSE” because:

1. It’s “old news” from July 2017
2. Councilmember Larry Gossett never used the word “racist.” He just said he didn’t like the idea of power-washing the sidewalks because it brought back images of the use of hoses against civil-rights activists.
3. It’s not all streets….just the ones by the County Courthouse.

LOL!
