Late Night Crime Wave

Posted by on Fri, Apr 17, 2009 at 11:58 PM

Its a busy night for (me and) SPD. Along with the shooting in the University District, there was a stabbing at 12th and Jefferson and someone fired shots at police in West Seattle. I'll have more soon.

Update: ok, so just about every crime scene has been cleared. Still, craziness!!!

I like to have faith that, right now, this very evening...

on rooftops and in the streets,

Seattle's newest band of crimefighters are getting ready to make a difference.

In the meantime, I'll have to settle for douchebag white-supremacist punditry anonymously submitted to the internet.

My car got hit by a hit and run driver tonight, as well. Car and me are okay, thankfully, but i'm going to miss the VW emblem on my front bumper. Drinking to its memory right now at Naked City.

There were 5 police cars parked in the middle of the street in front of the ally between the Egyptian and Walgreens after I left the midnight movie. My bus arrived at 1:36am and nothing seemed to be going on. Do they do that every weekend for the pub crawlers or do they just like over doing things like that all the time?

As the Welfare State bankrupts and social services collapse expect ever more chaos and crime until the godless shithole that was Seattle consumes itself in a conflagration of violence and death.

It's all over...the sirens were roaring from Thursday night to Friday here in Kent as well. What's going on? Maybe the Mount Redoubt is fucking with people's brainwaves...

On another issue -- this one goes out to you Sloggers who constantly promote high density living. Last night I spent 30 minutes in traffic in my bosses car travelling from the I-5 exit to parking for Safeco -- and we were 90 minutes early!

Ok, so while looking out the back window, I notice...God, this area is a real craphole. But then I look forward and see...hey, there's the city...right there.

Question, why don't they just build a few blocks of 80 story apartment buildings right there in Sodo. It's less than a mile from downtown and you could probably house every one who works in the city right there within the mile. If you built enough of them, it would be cheap to live there. And at least some of them would have spectacular views, be right near the sports areas, in walking distance to nightlife and best of all, one bus or train ride or bike ride to the city.

Why not bring the masses downtown?

Jonah,

It's been almost 10 hours since you posted the words, "I'll have more soon."

Then you updated the post with a non-update: "Update: ok, so just about every crime scene has been cleared. Still, craziness!!!"

What kind of fucking blog is this. If you're gonna update something, update it. This post didn't answer any questions and gives blogs a bad name.

@8 is John Bailo, he's said the same before in other places. Google it!

Black people are so much cooler, vibrant and exciting than whites. Besides, it is white oppression that forces the black youfs to kill each other, they have been made irreparably retarded by evil white people, so nothing they do is their fault, they are not responsible for their actions in any way.

Dammit... I was hoping, BY NOW.....

There might have been a real update.

Something cool about confused crime scenes and witnesses gossiping excitedly about vigilante crazies engaged in "crime fighting." That would have been cool, huh?

But Jonah was just using language like "I'll have more soon," in order to piss all over our hopes.
