Finally, the liberals are starting to deal with the stuff they’ve been dishing out. Usually they make policies and other people have to deal with it. Now it’s gotten so bad it’s effecting them too.

They’ll want to give them $400 and send them to LA.

It’s version of the Cloward–Piven strategy

Enact policies which lead to urban deterioration in order to justify mass denial of individual rights as the “only’ remedy.

I think that KOMO-TV documentary (you can see it on YouTube) and the fact Los Angeles and San Francisco now face a possible communicable disease crisis have woken up the Seattle City Council to do something. I think Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and Starbucks Chairman Emeritus Howard Schultz put pressure on the City Council, too.

They are all leftists getting mugged by the reality they created. But they STILL DON’T GET IT. They all still consider themselves liberal. And the chaplain is the worst. What you had when there was law & order in the streets was fascism? Really?!

Liberalism/leftism really is a mental disease.

In the documentary Seattle is Dying, there is a scene in which citizens angrily confront the City Council. One councilman tries to dismiss the concerns of the residents by saying "just call 911" when you see homeless people in your area.

This is followed up by loud boos from the crowd. An angry woman explains that the police's hands are tied by City ordinances, and that they advised her to vote the Council out so that they (the police) can do their job.

The council people just look at each other and laugh.

Lots of chalk in the gutter.
One “artist” and a couple of claimers.
I’m sure they appreciated the “gift” by some compassionate Dhimmicrat (who likely ran their kids downtown to the “homeless camp” and drop it out of the car window as they drove by...)

People who believe that the rule of law = fascism deserve the government they get. If only we could build a wall around their districts to keep them from moving out of the hellhole neighborhoods their votes have created.

These types of articles just crack me up and they always describe the exact same blueprint for a descent into hell:

1. Liberals implement policies that they think are humane and just.
2. The policies do nothing but create more incentives to attract many more bums, druggies, and crazies that foul their wonderful liberal nests.
3. The liberals first ignore the problem. Then they begin traveling to other neighborhoods to get away from their problems. Then they get really concerned and begin complaining non-stop.
4. Their proposed nostrums do nothing to get at the root of the problem.
5. When it gets so bad that their kids and lives are in danger, liberals finally flee the little utopias they created and spread their miserable, failure-ridden policies around the rest of the country.
6. Go to #1.

This one cracked me up:

"Rather than walking their three daughters down to the spray park in the summer, Ruf and his wife load them in the car and drive to a park in another neighborhood. “I’m an environmentalist,” Ruf said. “God that’s frustrating, that’s so frustrating."
He's upset because he has to burn more gasoline to take his kids to a safer part of the city rather than stay in the shit-hole he created. He doesn't seem to be upset that he created a shit-hole in the first place, but that he has to use (horrors!) gasoline to escape his shit-hole neighborhood.

LOL!

The tent cities, in the left coast states, are their answer to providing space for high density housing for illegals and crazies. Too bad that the tents are now pitched on public parkland. Didn’t see that coming, eh?
They deserve the problems because they decided to disobey laws.
“Sanctuary,” has no business being given to people who are breaking immigration laws, in defiance of National Policy.
The illegals break the law and the state or city compounds the felony by providing “sanctuary.”

They asked for it, I relish the fact they are getting it.

Yet they don’t realize that placing someone in authority over them and being forced to accept their utopian ideas is the very definition of fascism.

New city council “delaing” with homeless problem = confiscate more money from producers to give to the homeless

What was it Trump said, “try it, you have nothing to lose.”
