WE don't have to worry about vaccination in WA one way or the other. The state's incompetence continues to lead the "free world." The last was several billion dollars in fraudulent unemployment claims paid while many unemployed with ligament claims are ignored.

This is a legit question cause I don't follow the Seattle/Portland nonsense much. When is the governor/government going to step in and clean things up? Even if they are "liberal" they can't think the nonsense is good. I mean at what point do they say enough is enough?

i think it's more a question when the voters say enough is enough and flush the political toilet.you gotta realize these incompetents were elected,but can also be voted out.it's a question when people will realize there beautiful city is being destroyed.hopefully it doesn't become the next detroit.

The gubbernor and gubbermint is the problem. They are not "liberal," which by definition should allow them to accept new ideas to clean up the KOMO Seattle is dying mess. "Illiberal" is probably the most accurate description; uncultured, unrefined.

WA is in a Narcissism Crisis. The Dunning Kruger Effect explains it very well. I discovered this searching psychology to find a way to get the city to consider facts. Ignorance is easily addressed with education. Intentionally ignoring fact motivated by greed, narcissism or tribal instincts is stupidity. It cannot be fixed because they are an intentional, willful, conscious decisions.

 

Detroit- (home town) does not compare to the cities West and NW regarding the social unrest that the western cities experienced over and over rioting (Ooops social protesting). The governor of MI is another Newsome type (liberal)...

I would like to have seen a swift shutdown of the social unrest. IMO this could have been done, similar to other uprisings with mounted horses and not bicycles… Should an attack start then quell it! The training and tactile gear were there both on the streets and the capital… made for good news coverage to get people's minds off our real enemy- viral warfare either by design or mutation that is my enemy.

Part2 In all of the cities that we mentioned a lot of people made a lot of money. Always have and always will… and as the saying goes "follow the money…

Just got in. Sent my helper home, a friends son that wants to learn woodworking. He will be helping me out for a bit as my right arm is still in a sling. Today we took it back apart and hit it with couple coats of poly.

Voters are not likely to be able address these issues. When asked about critical thinking ability psychologists evade the question by responding, "It depends on how you define it." They really do not want to say 60% of the population is stupid. That 60% do not consider facts in decision making. Of the 40% who do consider facts, very few are able to define a problem, engineer a solution and see it through to completion. Fortunately, LJ's are able to complete many outstanding projects.

Politicians are normally ideologues. Their decisions are emotional based and fact irrelevant. Until we get politicians out of gubbermint, there is little hope of recovery. Let Free-Dumb ring ;-(

Something that really bugs me is the security around Congress. Amazing that a group got in without heavy firepower and were able to stay in for hours and act as if they were at a museum. What message or example did we leave for those who would consider a strike in a more forceful and destructive manner?

- woodbutcherbynight

One thing that I'm curious about is whether or not they were given little resistance to entering. I had a buddy that worked for the SS for a while but left for the FBI as he was worried he wouldn't be able to protect someone he didn't feel was worth protecting. If all of congress and everyone in the white house myteriously disappeared, we really wouldn't be that bad off. There was a time when political reponsibilities weren't sought after as careers but more like jury duty, get in, do your best to help and get back to work. Career politicians will be the death of this country, what we need are those skilled in balancing budgets and maintaining morals to get in, do their best to help and then get back to work. Politician isn't a job, it's an excuse.

Indeed and you have to assume based on what we saw and how quickly it went down that someone, or more than one helped.

A couple days ago the Seattle police chief said there had been "social" protests nearly every day for the last 6 months. The recent protests of the last week or two have been labeled as insurrection and riots. He said arrests will now be made and there will be prosecutions. The Seattle city attorney had no comment. Apparently he has been taken totally by surprise that the police say there are introducing law enforcement rather than legalizing most criminal activities in Seattle and King County. It will be interesting to see if "social" protests and "insurrection riots" have the same arrest criteria when windows are broken, there is looting and attempted arsons. Anyways, Starbucks announced they will leave the plywood front in place at their Pike Place Market store. I haven't heard about any permanent plywood front at the CHOP location that was the site of attempted arson nearly every night for weeks. The people's lives who reside in the units above that Starbucks obviously do not matter.

 

Reps Ken Buck and Darrel Isa both say good people with good intentions get elected. When they find Congress is so corrupt it cannot be fixed, they either join the good ol' boys club and enjoy the perks or go home in disgust.

Early new reports said the capital was opened for the "insurrection" protestors. Obviously, they were there by invitation.

 

Vaccines here are by appointment in most places. You can do it online. Some places are are walk ins. They are running out of vaccines though. Say they are waiting on the federal gov't to release more of them.

+1 bob thats the problem some new kid gets elected and has good intentions and the good ol boys say you do what we need you to do and maybe you'll get what you want.so join the party or get out in disgust!

i agree the capitol was under staffed security wise for one reason,trump wanted too let his "friends" flex their muscle,his one last blast of his agenda.well we'll see where the impeachment goes.i dont expect anything really and will be surprised if he does.

Samuel Adams said the US Constitution is only fit for a moral and just society, and will fail, eventually, in any other. I dont think thats what we have now in the US. We dont have a Constitution like that in European Union, and we dont have a moral and just society either.

But what I really want to say is this, I can be fiery by nature, so its is good for me to have cooler heads around to seek advice from, like Pottz, and CW, and Topa, and DW, and C125, Petey, and WBBN. Thanks guys! Not leaving out anyone intentionally, mind you, all input is good.

WBBN: that quote from your former CO is great, I am stealing that!

I was thinking before, if we were all sitting around a table playing poker, and you all were drinking, and thus losing your money to me, we might well be having the same conversation - which is cool.

Oh, and talking about scaffolds and such may well get this thread shut down.

yeah the scaffold comment as i now think about it was probably a bad choice,just removed mine and warned dw,if he see's it in time?

 

That AOC is sort of trying to change that good ol boys system but she's going about it the wrong way. Shes to far off on one side. Brian that's why we say this is like a bar. A bunch of people hanging out and discussing what's going on in the world and occasionally in our shops. We all have our points of view and I think we've always been pretty level headed. Nobody gets really gets too hot and starts full blown arguments.

 

I never have probably never will understand the point of protesting/rioting. It never does any good.

There are legitimate concerns about some bad police/procedures. How does standing in the street with a cardboard sign, yelling do any good.

There is legitimate concerns about racism. Why not address the problem(poverty)that would do more good than anything. Haters will always hate.

The stupidity of the capital did nothing but kill a couple people and cause damages. If you truly believe that election laws are flawed(I think there are some), get the right people in place to make changes.

All this I think proves one thing. Almost all of this is criminals being criminals, not about doing good.

 

Interesting perspective of us, US.

yeah for the most part i agree, id bet 90% of all the protestors really have no concern or even know what it's really all about,they just see an opportunity too cause some trouble and have fun at others expense.real change doesn't come from the idiot's in the streets yelling or destroying property,there the ones that damage the path too change.but in a free society as ours how do we seperate the good from the bad without infringing on freedom?

i really like the conversations today,everyone is really thinking about the life we live,and how we can make it better,without arguments.i hope we will not chastised for being too political,that would be sad….........

The scaffold behind president Biden? was it meant for him or maybe it was for Trump? the scaffold was a met afore,
and can have can have many meanings…

Brian- why do you have CWW named after Pottz?
"for me to have cooler heads around to seek advice from, like Pottz, and CW, and Topa, and DW, and C125, and WBBN" There is a chain of order here and CWW is the latest addition…
