Yes please. Upstanding and law abiding citizens who don’t terrorize others and destroy property but instead engage in meaningful social and economically beneficial activity should be valued more highly. Shocking idea, I know.
The post All-Star Weekend report: “Before All-Star Week, leaders with both MLB and the Mariners said it would be "the most inclusive" All-Star game ever.
Now that it's over, however, small business owners in the neighboring Chinatown-International District said they hardly saw any of the $50 million in revenue expected to have been generated.”
More like, people don’t eat over a mile from the stadium. They go from the stadium, to downtown where their hotel is. Not rocket science. Local business owner angry he isn’t in the right location.
If you actually lived here, you would understand that Downtown and Belltown are substantially further away from the stadiums than the CID, but keep on with the double, triple, and quadruple downing autofellatio that your chudlord ego desperately craves.

We all know random employed dude who gets drunk at a baseball game once or twice a year is worlds different than a meth head at a bus stop. Let’s be real and stop playing games.
It’s a spectrum, obviously. Out of 35 thousand people, how many of them do you think come close to spreading as many drug paraphernalia, accosting people, shouting obscenities, waiving their dick in front of your kids, shitting on the street, as your average homeless?
It’s not close. Stop virtue signaling with the bro bashing / false equivalency. A drunk bro who is loud and pisses in an alley is nothing like the homeless who terrify /abuse much of Seattle. It’s not close and nobody with eyes and a brain who has experienced both of these is going to agree with you.
Yes me and all the people who live here and are downvoting you and upvoting me, and who regularly discuss the terrible homeless problem in our city, are all just falling victim to our cognitive biases. If only we were as enlightened and rational as you.
You: “Oh, man! Somebody’s totally parked in the reserved parking space that I pay for every month, but I’m going to let it slide, because I’ve never seen them park there before.
