    Sara Nelson is up for election next year. She’s repeatedly pissed off the constituents too. One of the biggest gaffs was when her friend, Tanya Woo, ran for city council and had a clear decisive loss. Not long after one of the the other council reps stepped down and Sara appointed Tanya to that seat. This last election Tanya had to run again To retain the seat and was, you guessed it, had a decisive loss.

    Sara is going to lose the council seat next year, but the damage she’s caused will take a while to fix.

      If you’re ‘lucky’, you get a one way bus ticket to Seattle, Portland, San Fran or LA.

      They just export their homeless problem.

    You figure you could house the homeless if you could only replace their roofs with cops as shingles. It’s a little outside the box thinking but let me explain…take the old rooftops and then place cops in the same place the old roof used to occupy. Simple really, but the cops don’t like that.
