People in this thread bitching on shit on the sidewalks sound poor. There isn't any shit on the sidewalks in my neighborhood. The shit on the sidewalks is overblown. I walked around parts of DT Seattle for a meeting on Thursday -- didn't see any shit on the sidewalks there either.

To the people that want to try what Bellevue is trying... how about this. We move the King County jail from Seattle to Bellevue, so when all the drug users are released from jail -- they are released onto Bellevue's streets instead of Seattle's.

Oh, and Amazon isn't moving to Bellevue, they are relocating one or two groups there. They are still hiring in Seattle and I bet total headcount in Seattle will be larger than total headcount in Bellevue for the next 4 decades.

The software devs that live on the East Side live there because they aren't as good as the Software devs that live in Seattle.

Walk around San Francisco, especially around Market and Union Square on up to Market and Van Ness. There is shit everywhere.

Ugh, traveling to SF next week. Not looking forward to navigating downtown with my kid in tow.

Dude really? I took my boy there 18 months ago. Walked all over downtown. Not only did I not see any human shit (Bob has been known to lie, like sitting in an ER full of illegals), I didn't see any needles or anything else.

If it’s such a nonissue why do they have a poop map?

If it's such an issue, why are Seattle and San Fran downtown's thriving and home values some of the highest growing in the nation?

Hondo is now defending human shit on the streets and sidewalks.

Yep there it is. The exact thing I was talking about

This same garbage with immigration is how Trump won

Instead of "well we realize there is a problem but we disagree on the solutions" they went full on "there IS no immigration problem. And even if there were illegal immigration is a good thing for you! RacisT!"

Trump won because Hillary thought the election was her birth right.

I'm not saying it's not a problem. I'm saying it's being greatly exaggerated by your media to try to tear down two successful cities and paint liberalism as evil. If you can't see that, I got some oceanfront property in Montana to sell you.

Dude, people want to not be hassled by homeless and made to feel uncomfortable. Especially people who are paying a lot for somewhere and expect it to be nice. Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp?

You keep acting as if I get my news from Fox and Friends. My opinion of SF is based on my first hand knowledge and experience. It's not from a media source you ponz.

So my continued experience with a city I've been visiting for 30+ years is invalid but that one tim with your son is. Got it.

How has the DNA of a person this stupid survived Natural Selection?

Some form of biological protection or sanctuary? Frozen jizz?

What magical happyland part of Seattle do you live in fren where you don’t notice the issue?

I didn't say there is no issue, I said there is no shit on my sidewalks, and there isn't shit on the sidewalks in most of Seattle.

And as I wrote, move KC Jail to Bellevue, and they'll have more of the other issues.

No I don't have shit on the side walk in my hood. But I drive by about 50 tents along a 1 mile stretch of I-5 between my house and dropping the kids off at daycare. I've even seen those assholes trying to pitch tents in Green Lake. That's fucked up. Seattle as always had bums but 25 years ago they were confined to a few parts of town like Pioneer Square. We didn't have hundreds of tents all over the place. I realize Bellevue's circumstances are a bit different, but still...
