I expect to see this shit go down somewhere like Alabama or my home state of Tennessee or even Utah but Seattle? I thought Seattle was one of these "progressive" cities. What the fuck is going on?

City cops don't live near the people they police.

Lower housing costs by banning zoning. People serving a community should live in the community.

Shit! Seattle was one of those places that I was thinking about moving to escape the south.

it's still one of the best places I've ever lived in, including the uk, singapore, and all over the west and east coasts of the US. SPOG sucks big nuts but no place is perfect. Moved here from DFW, was DEFINITELY a major upgrade in QOL.
