Re-urbanization anyone?

I lived at the Newmark at 2nd and Pike for 10 years. This is no surprise to me. The city has always promised and never delivered on keeping that area safe.

I remember one Sunday morning a few years back when I took my dog for a walk, and two young thugs were bouncing another man's head off of Second Avenue at Pike. The perps walked away north on 2nd, SPD casually arrived, yawned, and did a useless investigation. The perps walked free.

I've personally been confronted by coke-heads and worse on the block between 1st and 2nd on Pike many times. I've watched people get beat up at 3 in the morning from my condo. Calling SPD did nothing.

The most chilling scenes, though, have been when I've seen what we make our tourists walk through to get to the Market. Young tourist families with strollers getting nasty people in their faces. It's quite disgusting and represents a complete lack of understanding by the city of the value our tourists represent and the money they bring to the city. Then there are the "sweeps" that SPD does periodically to raise their PR rating, but not to solve the problem. It's still a drug-infested rat hole.

I finally gave up and moved away. What a waste.

Yeah, that storm system is no joke. I'm in Minnesota and we had winds over 60mph, and the temperature dropped about 25 degrees. Pretty wild.

Smart father.

The boy slipped a shell into a shotgun that was on a bed in his parents' room Monday afternoon and then pulled the trigger. . .

the boy's 25-year-old father had, at some point, given his son a shell to handle because he was curious about firearms and ammunition.


I won't be surprised if next week the kid gets syphilis. . .

Regarding the shooting downtown:

It is almost like the universe itself is conspiring to prove, beyond all doubt, that what I wrote on the Judge Sanders threads is the absolute undeniable truth!

Just another black murderer in Seattle. Ho hum!

What a surprise! I must be psychic!

Call me a racist, call me a Hitler Nazi, call me a fag, call me inbred, call me any naughty name you want.

One thing you can't call me is INCORRECT for stating that black males, less than 3% of Seattle, commit over half of all homicides in Seattle.
6
500 times hotter than Jalepeno! That kid must have been shocked even more by his BM the next day! But the story that puzzles me is the guy who let someone he fought with tattoo his back. I'm thinking it said "Dick Head".
7
@5: so what do we DO about the homicides disproportionately committed by black males, racist Hitler Nazi fag inbred naughty name?
8
@5:
Sooooo, uhh... Wha's your point??????
9
@ 6, some "key word," according the article, was misspelled. Dikk head maybe?

But for me, the pertinent question raised by today's news is, why didn't the parents of the kid who got the hot sauce take it away from him? Anything called "mega death" sauce is going to be too hot for a kid, even if he chewed on jalapeños when he teethed.

@ 7, 8, just because a troll registers, doesn't mean you have to interact with it.

@7

first we need to be able to openly discuss all the facts of the matter honestly, without a bunch of naive sheltered white seattle libtarded progressive ninnies getting their big girl panties all in a wad.
12
HOW TERRIBLE for Judge Sanders to tell the truth by stating the facts so plainly! He must be censured!

We can't let the truth get out! All the naive white seattle libtards might not be so libtarded if they learn the truth!

http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/lo…

"State Supreme Court justices Richard Sanders and James Johnson stunned some participants at a recent court meeting when they said African Americans are overrepresented in the prison population because they commit a disproportionate number of crimes.

...

Sanders later confirmed his remarks about imprisoned African Americans, saying "certain minority groups" are "disproportionally represented in prison because they have a crime problem."

"That's right," he told The Seattle Times this week. "I think that's obvious."

PLEASE POINT OUT EXACTLY WHERE JUDGE SANDERS IS INCORRECT.

Now see, I would just keep going with the tattoo, and make it into something else. Phallic symbols in the world abound, surely there must be something it could morph into rather than lasering it off...Tree of life? The Washington Monument? Trajan's Column? The tower of Isengard? The phrase might prove more challenging, which I'm imagining as "Suk my ____"

@14 keekee, if that's you in your avatar, you are but a babe in arms, so to speak.

Here's a great photo of the black guy who murdered someone in downtown Seattle yesterday!

http://www.seattlepi.com/local/429093_sh…

"Police said the suspect, who turned 27 last month, listed a Lynnwood address and has a violent history. Court documents show his previous convictions include cocaine possession, violating a domestic violence no-contact order, second-degree assault, resisting arrest, fourth-degree assault and first-degree theft."
26
FROM THE SAME ARTICLE LINKED AT #25

"Tuesday's shooting death is the 17th homicide in the city of Seattle this year and the 14th by way of guns, not including two fatal officer-involved shootings still under review. Last year, Seattle reached 16 homicides with the Halloween shooting death of officer Timothy Brenton."

I CAN ABSOLUTELY GUARANTEE THAT AT LEAST HALF OF THOSE 17 HOMICIDES IN SEATTLE THIS YEAR (SO FAR) HAVE BEEN COMMITTED BY BLACK MALES.

"The last shooting death occurred just last Saturday, when 29-year-old Jarrett Jackson [BLACK] was shot to death near 12th Avenue South and South Jackson Street. Court documents indicate that incident followed an accusation of cheating."

[= BLACK SHOT BY BLACK]

@19: I'll never try to prove you wrong so long as you continue to do that for me so well.

@12: Blacks don't have a crime problem; poor people have a crime problem. The judge is wrong in assuming causation from a simple correlation. If you control for income levels, all ethnicities have roughly the same crime rates.
Happy? Or are you going to bitch some more, you dumb-ass cracker?
28
ok, the dad of the kid who shot the mom made one of the stupidest press comments in the history of ever...but if he was away from the house and the kid dropped a shell he's obviously had for a while into a shotgun that just happened to be LYING ON THE BED...maybe the mom should go to jail. You know, after she recuperates. Or is she not allowed to touch the guns in the house?

@27 "@19: I'll never try to prove you wrong so long as you continue to do that for me so well."

Admittedly, I've really enjoyed eating at Steak and Shake when I've been in that part of the country, but if the bottle was labeled, I don't see how this isn't on them, and to an age appropriate extent, their son.

"Investigators are trying to determine why a family's pit bull -- described as a "very loving dog" -- attacked and killed a 3-day-old baby in north Florida Sunday night."

Because. It's. A. fucking. PIT. BULL.

Over and over and over again we here this 'oh such a gentle dog' crap. THE BREED IS GENETICALLY PREDISPOSED TO VIOLENCE. It is GENETICALLY UNSAFE and should be eradicated - at the very least culled and controlled.

"in studies that control for socio-economic status, race is statistically insignificant."

Then provide a link to such a study so I can judge for myself. I see libtards write that very sentence ALL THE TIME, but never once have they provided an actual link to such a study.

I have provided links to every study and statistic that I mentioned.

The fact that you have to "adjust" for SO MANY FACTORS when dealing with blacks logically proves you wrong. With blacks there is always some kind of excuse and theory to explain away the fact that they are the most violent race on earth.

41
"there is also the added wrinkle that blacks are more likely to be stopped and/or questioned for criminal activity, and thus more likely to be caught. "

Are you trying to claim that there were a bunch of white-committed murders that happened in Seattle that NOBODY EVER EVEN HEARD ABOUT and NEVER EVEN GOT REPORTED BY THE POLICE OR THE NEWS, and that part of the reason all those unknown white murderers in Seattle didn't get caught was because racist white cops didn't pull them over?

What a beyond-retarded argument.
42
"in studies that control for socio-economic status, race is statistically insignificant."

Let's play a little "mind game".

Let's say that a bad person forcibly abducts you late at night, forces you into their car, and then tells you that he is going to drive you far away from your home, and drop you off somewhere without your money or phone.

He gives you a choice. You can choose to be dropped off in a poor white neighborhood, or you can choose to be dropped off in a poor black neighborhood.

Which do you choose?

Anyone who leaves ANY 3-day-old infant alone with ANY dog should have the child taken away forthwith. There was that case last year of that Dachshund chewing off a baby's toes when they were left alone together. You never know when doggie is going to take it into his head that nice, milky-smelling baby is something to eat. The dog being a pit is just fuel for the fire. (I'm astonished the PB defenders haven't descended en masse yet.)
45
"no. not only do you not understand statistics,"

You seem to have real trouble admitting that at least half of the 17 homicides in Seattle this year so far have been committed by black males, and that at least 12 of the 21 homicides in Seattle in 2009 were committed by black males, and that at least 14 of the 28 homicides in Seattle in 2008 were committed by black males.
46
"
Then provide a link to such a study

here: go to sciencedirect.com and search for yourself. "

NOPE. I provided you all with the courtesy of linking to all the studies that I mentioned, and I expect you to do the same.
49
@48 your post is total fact-ignoring horse shit.

I linked to 4 peer-reviewed medical studies relating to race, testosterone, and the "warrior gene", in addition to all the newspaper articles I linked.
51
Just another black-on-black murder for naive white Seattle libtards to ignore or explain away.
52
@45: If you understood statistics at all, you'd know better than to assume causation from correlation. In order to imply causation, you need two of the following:
-Correlation
-Dependence (i.e., that experimentally changing the implied causative variable also changes the affected variable)
-Mechanism
All you have here is correlation. Changing the racial composition of a ghetto (and changing NOTHING ELSE) has not been seen to affect crime rates, and there is no possible mechanism to explain why blacks would inherently be more prone to crime. You're just a scared bigot pulling pseudoscience out of his nether regions.

@42: I really wouldn't give a shit either way.
See, I live in a neighborhood that is fairly poor (not many people living in the 'jects, but still pretty damn poor), and 96% black. I feel safe walking around the streets at any hour. Sure, I wouldn't leave my bike leaning against a tree, but that's true of any neighborhood.
Your race-baiting is ineffective against people who actually KNOW black people.

Also, I don't think I've seen you link to a single study.

@40. Judge for yourself? You couldn't judge a dog-show, shit-for-brains. The more important thing is what are we going to do to keep the suburban criminal element from committing crime on our fair streets.
54
@53 Keep up your awesome insults that don't prove dogshit.

At least half of the 17 homicides in Seattle this year so far have been committed by black males, and that at least 12 of the 21 homicides in Seattle in 2009 were committed by black males, and that at least 14 of the 28 homicides in Seattle in 2008 were committed by black males.
55

oooewwwpsie I meant that for #56
60
@58: You have yet to say anything about the load of statistics and logical reasoning that I dumped on this thread. I suppose that like all of you bitches, you are highly allergic to data and objective reasoning.
61
I don't care what your excuses are. The fact of the matter is that black males commit the most murder in Seattle and the USA. Explain it away in whatever way it makes you feel better,
62
@61: "The fact of the matter is that black males commit the most murder in Seattle and the USA."
Actually, that's an incredibly inaccurate conclusion to draw. See, in 2009, there were 13,636 murders reported nationwide, committed by a reported 15,760 offenders. Of the offenders, 33.5% were white, and 37.4% were black; however, 27.5% of all offenders were persons of unknown race. It is therefore statistically incorrect to assume that either blacks or whites kill more people than the other.
On the other hand, a solid 65.9% of offenders were male, while only 7.6% were known to be female. If you really cared about who is more likely to kill you in your sleep, you'd stop freaking out about brown people and start distancing yourself from us Y-chromosome-bearing psychos.
64
@62 "Of the offenders, 33.5% were white, and 37.4% were black"

You are exactly the kind of naive white jewish libtard that completely ignores the fact that the USA is about 75% white and only about 13% black.

You are also the kind of libtard that ignores the fact that at least half of those "white" murderers are not white at all, but are "People of Color", aka "mestizo latinos", who are unfairly counted as "white" by the US Government law enforcement agencies. See my post #2 over on the Judge Sanders waaaah waaah thread here for proof of that:

http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archive…

"27.5% of all offenders were persons of unknown race." = "NO SNITCHIN YO" + 12 million illegal aliens + a few whiteys who got away.

65
A minor correction to my post at #64

that should read : "at least half of those "white" murderers are not white at all, but are "People of Color", aka "mestizo latinos", who are unfairly counted as "white" WHEN THEY ARE OFFENDERS by the US Government law enforcement agencies.
66
@64: And you base those numbers and assertions on what empirical data?
None, of course. You only pay attention to the numbers that you can use to claim that blacks are violent criminals.
You are exactly the kind of naive white bible-thumping Dumbfuckistani that completely ignores the fact that it is dishonest and illogical to claim that correlation implies causation. Blacks are not inherently more likely to be violent or felonious; poor people are. Blacks are more likely to be poor, due to centuries of oppression, and thus for THAT reason are more likely to be criminals. The data demonstrate that.
Males, on the other hand, ARE inherently more likely to be violent. Are you going to say that we're all second-class citizens now?

In summary: get your cracker ass back to Stormfront.
67
Dallas Texas provides a good example for what I mean in #64.

http://www.dallascityhall.com/committee_…

Race of Suspect - 2008:
White - 9 = 6%
Black - 72 = 47%
Hispanic - 24 = 16%
Unknown - 49 = 32%

Therefore, even if the every single one of the 49 "unknown" murderers were whites, the black murderers would still outnumber them!!!!!

To really put it in the proper perspective:

http://www.city-data.com/city/Dallas-Tex…

Dallas Population Racial Data:

Hispanic - 547,781 (44.6%)
White - 355,922 (29.0%)
Black - 274,087 (22.3%)
68
66: "bible-thumping"

I'm an atheist, you religious fanatic.
69
"@64: And you base those numbers and assertions on what empirical data?"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographic…

White = 74.8% - 229.8 million
Black or African American = 12.4% - 38.1 million

As far as the numbers of non-white "People of Color" mestizo latinos or whatever PC term you like being classified as white, all you have to do is look at any FBI or USDOJ or State MOST WANTED webpage with photographs and it becomes totally obvious. In fact, I'm being generous to the misclassified "People of Color" in saying they make up half. Actually they make up a good bit more. Did you look at my post #2 at Eli's Judge Sanders waaaah waaah page? Of course you didn't. Do I have to post it here too? I will if I have to.

http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archive…

Can someone be a "Person of Color" AND be White at the same time???

http://www.icrimewatch.net/offenderdetai…
71
@67: Yeah, it's DEFINITELY statistically sound to extrapolate from a single data point. Just like you're being an excellent scientist by assuming that correlation implies causation!
@68: "religious fanatic"
I'm Jewish, you anencephalic assbag.
@69: I read it. Now rewrite it to make a lick of sense, and maybe I'll comment on it.
Also, I'm referring to the numbers and assertions at the END of your post at #64. Care to comment on those?
@70: White is a color. Boom.
72
I already knew you were Jewish. See my post at #64. You don't have to keep telling me.

Most of your post is just semantic bullshit and evasion.

Keep on ignoring reality. Make up some more neato wordplay ways to try to explain away reality. It amuses me.

REALITY: Black males ages 15 - 55, less than 3% of Seattle's population, committed at least half of the homicides in Seattle in 2008, 2009, and so far in 2010 too.

REALITY: black males committed 2 homicides in the downtown/ID area in just the last 3 days.

73
NWLSP, why are you so obsessed with the murder statistic? Judge Sanders said blacks commit more crimes, not that they commit more murders. There are thousands of crimes committed every year, but only a few murders. It`s the lesser crimes like theft and drug possession where the bias in enforcement and prosecution becomes more evident.
74
@73

I agree that the drug laws are unfair and that they have, at times, been unfairly enforced.

You mention thousands of crimes committed every year", yes. There are many degrees of seriousness of those thousands (millions really) of crimes committed every year.

I guess I'm just some crazy who thinks that MURDER is more serious than most other crimes.

I'd rather get ripped off for my life savings 10 times over by some white-tribe guy like Bernie Madoff than get violently robbed, raped, and/or killed once.

Since at least 94% of all blacks murdered in the USA every year are murdered by other blacks, I guess I'm a terrible racist/just looking out for their best interests by being concerned about the black-committed murder rate and wishing that the black murder rate would decrease.
75
@72, 74: It seems an awful lot like you think that blacks are inherently more violent than whites. Do you actually think that? Yes? No?
And if you want to talk about "try[ing] to explain away reality", you might want to stop assuming causation based solely on correlation. This is what I've been telling you for quite a while now.
76
@75 yes, it is obvious, stop crying about it when someone points it out.

Also, no matter what the cause is, it is just a fact that blacks commit more violent crimes.

For one thing, whites make up only about 12% to 15% of the entire Earth's population.

All those black-on-black genocides in Africa since the 60's haven't helped much.

If current trends continue, whites will be a minority by 2050. I think it will be sooner than that!

Enjoy your future when you are old and surrounded by submoronic black thugs.
77
Ha ha shit I am drunk now!!!!!

I meant to write:

"If current trends continue, whites will be a minority IN THE USA by 2050."

Since whites only make up about 12 to 15 percent of the entire planet's population, whites are already a minority, DUH! har har
78
@76: Wow...I give up.
It's not generally possible to reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into, so I've been wasting my time here. I'm guessing maybe you read about how black guys tend to have bigger dicks than white guys? Or maybe you have trouble understanding ebonics?
Well, I guess SOMETHING happened to you to make you feel threatened, and now you're irrationally terrified of Teh Nigra. I'll leave you to your bitter and paranoid ravings and get back to my art history paper.
79
@78 I don't give a shit about your black penis myth, but then again I don't really expect much more than a "muhdikkk argument" from you. Enjoy your art history!
86
@79-84: Aaand bereft of any actual evidence to further his point, the paranoid racist resorts to mindlessly spewing anecdotes and trying to pass them off as vindication.
Clearly: oh, you mad, 'cause I'm stylin' on you.

Thanks for censoring all my posts that indicated what the future will be like for naive white libtards when they are old and whites are a minority in the USA.

All my recent censored comments were links to news stories of black males raping and/or killing elderly women, often times in nursing homes.

A few of these elderly rape killings (usually a black male raping and killing an elderly white woman) even happened right around Seattle!

Enjoy the future, my naive white libtarded Seattle progressives!

Maybe if you keep ignoring the facts of reality long enough, they will simply vanish like magic!

WHEN YOU ARE OLD, ENJOY THE FUTURE YOU WORKED SO HARD TO CREATE

@52

Which two of your three does Savage employ to blame homosexual suicide on American Fundy Christian beliefs?
(don't forget to account for the fact that homosexuals in New Zealand and The Netherlands have the same suicide rate as American homosexuals...)
133
My, my. Seems like I missed quite a trollercoaster.

@107, 120, 132:
That would be correlation and mechanism. Suicide rates for gay teens are higher when they are rejected or harassed by family and friends (http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/cg…), and the mechanism for societal persecution causing a rise in the suicide rate amongst LGBTQ persons is quite clear and intuitive.
134
133

Intuitive?
Like the fact that "homosexual" teens pregnancy rate is up to 10X that of heterosexual teens?
Intuitive like That?

Did you even read the study you linked?
Did you understand it?
What does "we caution against making cause–effect interpretations from these findings" mean to you, Jr?

It did not study teens.
It surveyed adults aged 21-25.

It did not address suicide rate.
Zero of the adults surveyed committed suicide.
(zero is pretty low....)

It asked if the respondent had thought about suicide.
'Thought about suicide'?
Thanks to Dan, is there any homosexual on the planet who hasn't 'thought' about suicide?...

The survey had 51 questions about parent/care giver attitudes with a range of possible answers.
However responses were dichotomized into 'never' or 'ever'.
Thus if a caregiver had "once or twice" given a less than ideal response to any of the 51 situations presented the subject was considered "rejected" or "harassed".
wow.
that's a pretty delicate hair trigger.
Life is tough when your homosexual;
but evidently it's a lot tougher if your a 'caregiver' for a homosexual....

In the entire surveyed pool 40% reported heavy drinking and 55% reported illegal drug use in the past six months.
Is this really representative of homosexual behavior?
And Dan wants to blame Christians for their problems?

Man who raped homeless women sentenced to life

October 29, 2010 at 9:32 AM

"A convicted sex offender found guilty last month of raping two homeless women in 2007 was sentenced Friday morning to life in prison.

Frank Borders, 51, raped a 55-year-old woman in a park restroom in December 2007 and another woman in the woods several months earlier, prosecutors and police said. A King County jury deliberated for less than a day before finding Borders guilty of two counts of second-degree rape. "

Convicted sex offender charged with two-year-old Redmond slaying

King County prosecutors announced Friday that a convicted sex offender currently in custody has been charged with the rape and slaying of a Redmond woman.

Emanuel Demelvin Fair, 27, who in 2004 raped 15-year-old girl in Burien, has been charged with first-degree murder, prosecutors said. Fair was staying with a friend at Jinaga's apartment complex and attended the Halloween party the night she was slain, prosecutors allege in charging papers.

Police say Fair went to great lengths to conceal the crime.

Jinaga had been gagged while she was attacked and the killer used motor oil and bleach on her body, charging documents said. Her Halloween costume, a blanket from her bed and a portion of the carpet from her apartment had been burned.

The woman's hands were stained blue from being doused with a "highly-acidic" toilet bowl cleaner, police said.

"The defendant opened the locked door to Jinaga's apartment, attacked her, stripped off her clothing, gagged her, assaulted her and finally strangled her to death," Senior Deputy Prosecutor Jeff Baird said in charging paperwork.

In March 2005, Fair pleaded guilty to two counts of third-degree child rape for the attack on the 15-year-old and was sentenced to four years in prison.

Fair also has prior convictions for second-degree robbery, unlawful firearms possession and drug possession, according to King County Superior Court records.

Fair has been incarcerated at the McNeil Island Corrections Center for more than a year after being convicted of failing to register as a sex offender. A state Department of Corrections spokesman said that his earliest release date is February 2012.

@134: No, the trend you posited is what's known as "counterintuitive". And just because the producers of the study "caution against" drawing certain conclusions as to causality does not mean that causality cannot be derived partially from the study. It is indeed improper to assume SIMPLY FROM THE STUDY that homophobic persecution causes suicidal thoughts or behavior, as the study demonstrates only correlation. When combined with a plausible mechanism (and it is plausible to assume that people who are treated with disgust by those around them will have self-esteem problems and the constellation of related mental health issues), it is acceptable to infer causality.
Here's another study, by the way, which demonstrates that institutionalized homophobia (state gay marriage bans, in this case) correlates strongly to increases in psychological problems amongst LGB people. Add that to a mechanism similar to that which has been discussed above, and causality is very likely indeed.
TL;DR: Until you get your basement-dwelling ass through some study of statistics, don't try to play games with me, Alleged.

@135: Josef Fritzl, a very white man, imprisoned his daughter in a basement dungeon for decades and raped the shit out of her. Therefore, all white men must be idiotic violent sex offenders, according to your logic of "cherry-picked anecdotes are just as good as objective and verifiable studies".
