You are 100% correct. It helps for me to have seen the change to know something is up. Jesse Johnson was the legislator that sponsored the idiotic bill on pursuing criminals. They can’t even pursue cars that speed off, when police pull them over. This has happened thousands of times. 🙈
The so-called "police pursuit" law, passed in 2021 as part of a bundle of police reform legislation, said police can't give chase to suspects in cars unless they have probable cause of a violent crime or sex crime. The idea was to limit the number of deaths that happen during police pursuits. They are working to change it. Stupid, stupid law!
Inslee IS Newsom’s wanna-be! When Cali. does something, we have to do it. Inslee even held mask mandates the longest of every state except Hawaii. Like it was a contest. 🏆 His re-election honestly makes me question election results. Nobody I’ve talked to likes his leadership or where he’s taken this state. Many businesses permanently had to close after 2020 protests. BLM protests. The kicker is that 1/2 the businesses damaged & forced to close, were black owned businesses.
Our homeless population has increased every year & seems unstoppable. “ Seattle is Dying” is a documentary from 5 years ago or so. It showed over $100,000 per homeless person , in services. I’m sure the cost is more now. This doesn’t include low term housing either. It’s an industry here, for the homeless, & the worst part is the programs don’t have to work. Obviously they don’t. Locals rarely go downtown anymore.
A beautiful city, gone. It’s still pretty but a lot of businesses have left. Disgusted with the criminal presence & police and government have no interest in enforcing laws. Once in awhile, a bunch of arrests are made at one Home Depot or Walgreen drug store. The criminals are all confused because they’ve taken things for months. They are processed and back in the street within 24 hours. Ridiculous! It’s so bad! People are taking law in their own hands and are shooting intruders . Saves time & costs of jail. Hang in there, stay safe. Check legislative bills they’re trying to secretly push through.
New HB-1333 basically wants to form a committee to enforce laws against domestic terrorists. Definition is loosely applied to people that push opposing (unapproved) narratives. Not exactly but close.

Listen to the first video available on this from Jan. 24th. Talk of KKK & white supremacy, etc. How she does this video without laughing amazes me. And there’s word that the plan would be to arrest and re-educate the terrorists. This may include PTA members or people just expressing opinions. Slippery slope legislation. Here we go. ✌🏼 I’m pushing back hard.
