Link Transit Will Bring More Crime to Seattle Metro East Side
It’s pretty scary that anyone would be easily able to travel to cities like Mercer Island or Bellevue just by going on the link transit. It has been multiple times when Seattle PD located needles and even insane people pushing others towards the train. I am worried that crime will spread East which many people fear, especially those who live by I-90 in Bellevue/Mercer Island. Am I paranoid or do I have a valid concern?

Fear mongering ass
Comment section passes the vibe check.
You're paranoid. If you're worried about it, do something to help the root cause. Affordable public transit is not scary. It enables the teachers of your kids to actually get to school. There's more than a dash of privilege, nimby, and fear for you to unpack here. Much love to you brother. World needs love.
almost everyone is dunking on you but imo your concerns are valid and i think the dunking is wildly unproductive. consider if your government is taking good enough care of whoever it is you are afraid of. if someone is well fed, housed and healthy do you think they'd still "do crime" at these levels? consider asking why these people are unfed unhoused or unhappy and whether more or less accessible public transit is part of the solution to that :)
No I think the unfettered flow of cheap opiods is actually the root cause, not the lack of public transit
idk why you're leading with "no" as if this contradicts what i said. we are both saying this person has not identified the root cause of the fear. i assume you are more than comfortable in your life: when is the last time you considered shooting up?
gfy NIMBY. God forbid the poors have an economical means of getting to work
Yeah I don't think OP is talking about the "poors" you corny redditor.
🤡
You’re being kinda nimby tbh
