Put a Fork in Seattle
PJ Media ^ | 14 Mar 2022 | Kevin Downey Jr

Posted on 03/15/2022 3:17:42 PM PDT by Rummyfan

When Detroiters are laughing at your city, you know you’ve made a mistake.

I grew up in the Motor City and I have no sympathy for what used to be Seattle. Detroit’s death was drawn out over years and involved a perfect storm of nonsense, including foolish decisions by auto execs, stupid import/export laws, and a corrupt mayor named Coleman A. Young. Detroit languished. Seattle was executed.

Hundreds of local Seattle businesses are leaving, and Seattle residents have no one to blame except voters and the communists they’ve elected.

FACT-O-RAMA! Commies do not make things better, ever. You can’t point to a pinko success story. Don’t pretend Seattle voters had no idea what was going to happen. They killed a once-great city. They need to own it and tell their kids what they did to their home town.

I designed circuit boards for almost 20 years. Never saw that configuration before.

LOL! Me neither. What does the red fork represent?!

Same with Shitcago.

Speaking of Shitcago, my employer initially started calling everyone back to the office starting April 1st, and the pushback from EVERYONE was along the lines of "no way in hell are we commuting into that crime infested hell-hole!"

And just like that, magic! Everyone's work from home until the situation changes.

That would mean come the next election, light in the loafers liberal lesbian licker lori lightfoot is shown the door and someone with sanity who's hell bent on cleaning up the shithole cith by the lake!

Hmm. This article is about bezosibub, the pitchfork is red with 3 tines holding your data, with an appropriate background.

Don’t know

Yes, I happened to visit Idaho last summer and real estate was exploding then. One would be tempted to give the libtard transplants a good “what’s for” and hope they get all offended and decide to leave.

I certainly hope Lightfoot is gone with the next election. She gives incompetents a bad name. But who will be her replacement? And will he or she make any difference?

“There goes two more US Senators to the Left Coast Borg “Collective...

Are there really so many liberals that everywhere they move, even red states, they become the majority?

That means liberals are a big majority of the USA.

Her replacement will no doubt be worse. Shitcago has been on a downhill slide for decades already and the mayors getting elected get more and more progressive/left/retard.

All that has to happen is prevent anyone from saying “Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice” and Chicago’s problems will be alleviated.

Be advised that typing it 3 times is the same thing.

Name of one Republican city.

I responded to this question a year and a half ago with the following below, but have not checked to see if it's up to date:

San Diego
Ft Worth
Jacksonville
El Paso
Oklahoma City

Those are all bigger than Portland by population with the exception of OKC, which is slightly less populous.

You can also include Fresno, Mesa, Omaha, Colorado Springs and Miami, but they’re a bit smaller than Portland.

Also noteworthy: New York City, Phoenix, Dallas, Indianapolis tend to bounce between parties, so although they have Democrats for mayors now, they don’t have a stranglehold.

” Colorado Springs”

Nope. Lived there until last month. Real liberal town.

And if your city council is a bunch of commies, none of that matters very much.

Because Democrats are the most arrogant, hypocritical and selfish folks there are. They’re not to blame for anything. It’s always someone else’s fault.

The Seattle mayor is a perfect example. The city was an absolute disaster during the riots. Rioters showed up in her neighborhood and all of a sudden it was law and order.

Atlanta 2020….riots downtown. Wealthy liberal areas like Morningside, Virginia Highlands, Inman Park, Midtown, go unscathed.

For most liberals, especially the ones more well off, if the consequences of their decisions don’t effect them, they don’t care.
