The Seattle City Council is considering new legislation that would create a legal loophole that would make substance addiction, mental illness or poverty a valid legal defense for nearly all misdemeanor crimes committed in the city.

How about rolling back victimless crime laws first.

What. The. Fuck.

If this passes then society as we know it is over. It's going to be Deadwood 1874 except those defending their own property will probably be prosecuted

I don’t know how you could run a retail operation in a high crime area under that.

And shoutout to the muggers at Green Lake

Seattle is one more election cycle from being permanently damaged beyond repair. We might actually be there now.

Saw an interesting trend on People’s Pundit...even Texas is moving more Liberal. Polling shows it’s not the people moving here from Cali and other places...they are largely conservative. It’s the 2nd generation Texans that are changing the behavior. Won’t be a bastion of common sense for too much longer.

It's the lies and bullshit being taught from Kindergarten through Grad school. No academic has lived a life of walking in others' shoes. They just read about it, put their spin on it, and continue to hide behind their institutional walls. Fuck them all. Hard and Angry.

This shit is crazy. Question Sawant about sexual assault and groping and I doubt she can spin this bullshit. How someone even comes up with something like this is beyond me.
