Seattle is dying

The Bible says those too lazy to work, let them starve. Which of course is just and right. The issue is how to keep the streets clean and safe, and dealing with people with issues other than laziness. I've already given the answer in this thread.

Homeless people tend to be freeloaders. One in the same.

What does that have to do with anything I mentioned? The only way to deal with the drug wasted, is to get them help. A true Christians main objective in life, is to lift up, and help their neighbors, and community. To try, and emulate Christ in those regards.

But that's not what your leftists are doing in places like Seattle. Instead, their policy is to ignore them most of the time, except when you are enabling them via safe injection sites, laws protecting curbside RVs, and orders to the police to not enforce loitering laws in parks.

Your bias is showing, and it disappoints me. Portland has been rated as one of the most livable cities multiple times. You want to discuss shitty cities, why not try St. Louis, or D.C.

I live in the Pacific Northwest. I've been to Portland, OR. It's a cesspool. Homeless and drug users and crazies are everywhere. Where there aren't homeless there are racist gangs and violence. It's no longer safe to walk down Burnside Ave. Even riding the MAX or buses through the area is dicey. I no longer consider the Lloyd Center area or Clackamas safe either. Even Troutdale is much worse than it used to be.

In Seattle, we have rent controls destroying the rental apartment market, we have dense homeless camps along every freeway, we have muggins and violent crime increasing on the waterfront (damaging the cruise industry), we have restaurant owners packing up and leaving town, we have a huge industry of apartment complex builders all around the borders of Seattle, just outside the city limits (to house the refugees from Seattle), and regular riots, property damage, and demonstrations in the Westlake area. People who walk around in the South Park area are oftentimes never seen again alive.

Democrats caused all of it. They won't enforce the law, they tax and regulate businesses to extinction, and they do nothing about vagrancy or the drugs and mental problems that put them there. Instead, they enable it.

I used to enjoy downtown Seattle and downtown Portland. Not anymore.

No, Portland has become a shitty city. It is just like any other shithole the Democrats create. Just like Seattle. Just like Detroit. Just like San Francisco. Just like L.A. I don't even consider California a State in the Union anymore. They no longer honor the Constitution of the United States or even their own State constitution.

Screw Seattle. Let them live in the shit hole they created

Red states should ban people from blue states moving in unless they sign a loyalty oath to never vote for democrats.

Don’t let democrats spread their political AIDS to the rest of the country after destroying their own states

There used to be a billboard by Boeing Field in Seattle when California refugees were moving in (fleeing their own destruction they caused there). It said, "Don't Californicate Washington".

Did you know that Kansas builds a lot of aircraft, aircraft parts, and software? Garmin device design and manufacturing is based there. In Iowa, Google, Facebook, and Microsoft have development and server installations there. Doesn't seem so low in IQ to me.

You sound like a bigot.

What happens to a once thriving city after extreme liberalism gets a stranglehold over it.
Portland has been this way for at least two decades (when I first saw it).
San Francisco's there, San Diego went to shit, L.A. has always been a cesspool.
Our mayor and city council are hell bent on turning Anchorage into one, we're well on our way.

you are a moron
