Blue city crime crisis: Repeat offender strikes again after Charlotte train murder

44-year-old suspect with lengthy criminal history captured on surveillance video fleeing scene

Seattle police have charged a 44-year-old ex-con with the stabbing of another man in the stomach from behind in a "seemingly unprovoked attack" in the city's Chinatown-International District, authorities said, the latest in a string of violent crimes across the U.S. linked to repeat-offender suspects.

Surveillance video appears to show a man on a bicycle approach another man and stab him without warning before running off. The victim, who was pulling a cart along the sidewalk at the time, falls to the ground but eventually gets up and tries to run after the suspect while holding his side.

He couldn't keep up, but police arrested 44-year-old Jose Francisco Garcia nearby. Court records show he has a rap sheet dating back to at least 1997, when he was convicted of third-degree assault, and he had pending drug charges from November.

Lesson here is don’t live or visit a blue city. Can you imagine the squeals if people actually manned-up and stopped traveling to blue cities the tourism entities would scream. That includes business trips and conventions. But alas we are a nation of lemmings.

“Another ‘natural conservative’”

I remember hearing that garbage when Dubya tried to legalize them all. If the democrats thought for one picosecond that a single ‘natural conservative’ would vote for a republican there would be a wall so deadly and impenetrable no living thing could pass.

Stop doing business there too you’re right do your domestic tourism in red areas also stay out of blue areas in red states

Most of the sun belt is red. And stay out of Hawaii.

The zoo (and other businesses) in our blue city is losing millions because people are afraid to come here.

Quite frankly I don’t think the Democrat leadership really cares.

If they chase enough people out of the city they get to rule over their own ghetto. No more pesky people voting the way they don’t like.

Then some day a Democrat president will throw money at them to make up for lost revenue.

That’s just how it works.

Head on a swivel. No ear buds or cell phone distractions. Know of each person within your radius and keep tabs on them. Always pre-plan an exit or escape path. Your personal safety is your personal responsibility, and nobody else’s.

It takes a number of fatalities to institue a traffic light.

Same for stupid legal practices.

10 more to go and might get change.
