Eh, let them use whatever they're comfortable with, as long as it helps them get more done with their time.

Dear Joe,
This voter worried that your commitment to social justice was mainly about creating public-works jobs that would spend our tax dollars for the primary benefit of private development and real estate interests.
My worry was reinforced every time you repeated your frustrating non-answer about "moving Seattle forward" in response to questions that deserved nuanced and thoughtful replies. (I think that means you reinforced my worry exactly 1,544 times in the last month of the race.)
If you had demonstrated a credible effort to build trust in your motives, your experience would have been much more to your credit.

Me & my s/o's two McGinn votes landed in the Union Station drop box yesterday evening but are not yet showing as received by the county. Not a big surprise.
I expect McGinn has this one. For some reason I intuitively view last-minute slacker voters without landlines like myself as the core of his constituency.

It's been reported that the weapon is believed to have been a rifle, not a handgun.

Obtw, when stopped by police in Washington, it is not a crime to refuse to identify yourself.

@6,
What will @7 said, seriously. Serial rapists are bad, but if you can't prove it, then you can't call 'em serial rapists.

@9,
"Illegal" does not mean "criminal."
A cop can only arrest when he has probable cause to believe that a crime has been committed. Infractions (i.e., jaywalking) are not crimes.
I doubt very much that San Francisco uses criminal statutes to prohibit skateboarding.

And let me add to my own point in re. #11,
When accused of a crime, a defendant has to weigh the cost of their own defense when determining whether to continue to defend themselves or accept a plea arrangement.
When accused of misconduct, police officers have no such concern. The city picks up every dime, without limit.
