None of this surprises me. I think I'm going to change my route though.

I often wonder what else the SPD can do there, considering police presence in the area appears to be high and consistent already.

Greg Nichols to gangs: Job well done.

Now I can keep buying the real estate around the light rail for cheap.

More bullets at the arcade if you need 'em.

Union St., pinned down by my errant scooter at about that same time - things are getting fucking DANGEROUS out here.

Although given my comparatively minor njuries, I have to say, SPD response was very quick!

Guess it helps when they're already in the neighborhood...

Oh well, at least they got the "conscious and alert" part right.

And thanks NaFun. Nothing large quantities of whisky can't deaden...
