Dems in charge of most cities and 2 branches of the Federal government want minimal law and order from the police and judges. They also want to block law abiding citizens from exercising their 2nd amendment rights. Need more grown ups in charge, less Dems.

Good, maybe they are following the wrong ideology.

So sad it's bad here in Sacramento also...;(

It's definitely a Democart paradise, They like it this way!

Time to step up and start defending ones self and their business.

Your reap what you sow!!! Isn’t that in the Bible?!?!?

Seattle imprisons any officer who tries to stop a rioter.

What did they expect? They voted for this mess & chaos-they are getting it. The citizens of Seattle want to be woke. Now they get to enjoy & reap the rewards of their stupidity. Why should the hated police help them? They need to stop bitching & take care of business themselves.

Can you blame them? bruceharrell mayorofseattle

We do have to fend for ourselves when it comes to personal safety. I was “attacked aggressively” by a man on Twitter yesterday for simply stating that downtown was unsafe and that I don’t feel safe “anywhere” in Seattle. The far left don’t want people to know how bad it is here.

You get what you vote for

...another soon to be ghost city, people leaving to Texas, Florida and other livable places
