    Seattle has been the fastest growing city in the nation. It is not at its 3-year-old record levels but gained 19.000 population last year. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle...united-states/ That is not a characteristic of a dying city. So go ahead rightys keep lying to each other.

    1 dead, 7 injured in downtown Seattle shooting; suspects still at large

    The incident happened less than half a mile from an officer-involved shooting that happened just hours before, and officers rushed from that scene after receiving calls of a "mass casualty incident."
    The incident is the latest in a string of violence happening in the span of 48 hours within the city. A man was killed Tuesday in a shooting near Westlake Center.

    Yup. This area has been an area of conflict for several gangs in the city for quite a few years. This shootout is the result of a gang war. All participants have years of criminal records including felonies such as armed robbery, brandishing a deadly weapon, assault, theft, and shooting at people. Why they are still on the street is a BIG question to ask the judges that let them off without serving any time at all.

    In my book, the judges are just as guilty as accessories to these crimes.

    Oh, BTW, none of the guns used were legally obtained. They were all stolen, or purchased from someone that stole them. Another example of criminals not respecting any gun control law.

    What makes this different from Chicago, Baltimore, New Orleans or (pick any long term democrat run shithole) is that this happened in the middle of downtown Seattle. It's not thugs killing each other but innocent bystanders.
    We're planning on moving to Skagit Valley later this yr. Last time we were in downtown Seattle we said "never again".

    Don't blame you. Enjoy the Tulips!

    Perhaps we could have dinner sometime at Skagit Regional airport. I do get up that way from time to time. They have a good restaurant there. We can use PM to arrange a meeting time, once you get settled.

    It's all in the documentary produced by ABC KOMO, a Seattle tv station.
    The only thing growing faster than Seattle's population is its economy. Its murder rate is about between a third and half the national average, and it is a major city. Usually cities would be expected to have higher murder rates, but as rural whites become more violent, maybe we should no longer expect that.

    Which is to say, I wish more Red Counties were like Seattle.

    The city of Seattle is not the Puget Sound region.

    The City of Seattle government is just a bunch of socialists. It's economy is dying. People are moving OUT of Seattle to the suburbs surrounding it. So are businesses, with the exception of Amazon.

    In 2010, 608,660 people lived in Seattle, by 2018, 744,955 lived there. That is a 22.4% jump. Its economy is doing wonderfully. I wish more of America had as strong of an economy as Seattle. Part of both is an exceptionally low crime rate.
