My brother was talking on the phone with his girlfriend at Pierre 62 in Seattle, when a homeless man approached him, snatched his phone and threw it into the bay. The police didn’t want to do anything against the homeless and only gave a report number to my brother. Don’t you think it’s incredible the impunity of those people to do what they want?
Give us the police report number
do you mean they had the person in custody, then let him go?
hah! good one.
This sounds made up. How would a malnourished hobo snatch the phone and throw your brother in sequence? Wtf was he doing in the meantime?
Was attacked many times in sf myself moved to suburb area and never looked back sf and Seattle are done
Are you concerned that it'll eventually spread to suburbs? We know Oakland is a hell hole
I escaped to Danville where public transit doesn’t go. It’s a classic American tight knit community. If anything is off the old retired white people with nothing to do will report it within 5 min. I see the problems being addressed before it spreads out here.
Keep voting for liberals/democrats/RINOs and enjoy the shit show.
Honestly, Republicans have no fucking idea either. They're too busy campaigning on BS culture war issues and trying to ban abortions and healthcare for poor women. Where are my pragmatic centrists? People who know that government _can_ work when it's done well.
no politicians seem to be pragmatic nowadays
Sounds about right for a west coast city.
When you ignore petty crimes without any accountability, the criminals will just get more emboldened to do more until someone actually stops them. At this point there is little incentive to follow the laws around here, might as well save some money and stop registering your car and paying driving fines.
Exactly. Why should we register our cars and pay our taxes? Are laws now only imposed on the middle class? Grabbing a phone forcibly is assault and theft. Creating a class of untouchable criminals in the name of liberal politics is just insane.
Laws have always been imposed on the middle class.
Threw your bro into the sea? Wow that’s next level shit. Hope he Ayt.
Progressives voted for this. They want to keep criminals out of jail, catch and release them, and handcuff the police
They are doing a terrible job then, the US has by far the highest incarceration numbers in the world
Not in Seattle they're catch and release here
