In other news, more and more drugged up SUV drivers seek vengeance by running over innocent gas station bystanders.... most of the time it turns out to be just a cat, so it's okay.

Here's the article. According to the story, there were two people panhandling and using drugs; they were asked to leave. One threw a rock at the employee's car window, shattering it, and then threatened to shoot him. The video also says the person was shot because he lunged at the employee. I hope the truth comes out and the situation is handled appropriately.
It's a shit post, not news. If you ignore the details and focus on the headline things looks worse. Now imagine yourself living in a city where a guy shoots another guy just because the other guy is drugging himself. I'm sure nothing would have happened for example if the druggie wasn't bothered....but then why isn't he doing that elsewhere at his home? Because probably he doesn't have one! Or maybe he got kicked out of his because of the drug problem? Or worse, he's got a home but want his family and kids to see his addiction. See. Keep asking why. Why is he addicted? Because he was able to get drugs. Why? ....is it because the Chinese are sending drugs thru Mexico or Canada? Or maybe there's an evil axis of people who want drugs in Seattle such that less people are attracted to the city and maybe they can afford it again? Or maybe they want to buy the entire city so this is just to scare the remaining owners of homes and shops there? That's how it happened in San Diego. It used to be a drug shithole, then suddenly people started buying up property, you know, to help. And that cleaned up the city, for a while. Then now it's a shithole again.
