Seattle is Dying | A KOMO News Documentary 

I'd had been arrested and kicked his ass, guaranteed, if he'd smiled after I warned him...

But.... what's with the lack of empathy? The people want the Cops to break down on the homeless, but they're only homeless and broke because of the lack of social programs. Why is this program so weird to me as a Swede? It basically thinks that "locking people up" will solve the problems, but it's not like that in real life. All of homelessness, addiction and criminality is basically a result of the systems in place in the city. No help for homelessness causes more homelessness. No economical aid for people struggling = more homelessness etc. etc. Why is this program pretending like it's the problem of the justice system?

@Lynn Adamson We get this of course, but the American......... they've completely gone bonkers, believing that poor people are in that situation by themselves.

It is a involuntary nervous reaction many people have

@@Ree1981 How does Seattle handle the problem? Handing out needles. You are right, there are no programs to help the homeless in Seattle. You can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped. If you want to help the homeless man in Seattle first give him a fishing pole and a free fishing license. That's a start. I don't think the people in Seattle who are paying enormous tax on their highly inflated property, and paying on every purchase for someone to "earn" $15 an hour while possessing no "skills", can bear the added expense of programs on top of the huge incentives given to affiliates of the politicians in power (political favors).

ohh yes ! the father it's right ! vote sober !

thats funny, thats what tRUMPS sister & neice said

We get gaslighted by lies if people could do more due diligence and actually deal with people accused of things early on that would be great but their get protected they get second chances

Voting Democrat has consequences. And the consequences are not positive.

Animals don't shit where the eat.

Those unfortunates sunk into the gutter from bad choices they made. Whether those choices involved drugs or alcohol or got depressed and gave up... they need to go to work and pull their own weight. Locking people up and feeding them is punishing the tax payer. Criminals need discipline and punishment not time out with a nice bed and meals delivered to them. If they prove themselves non rebabitable, end their suffering and the taxpayers at the same time by humane methods. They have had too many opportunities to change their ways at the expense of other good people.

VERY TRUE ANIMALS LIVE MUCH CLEANER ALL AROUND

@@ladyjayne77I'm a conservative/republican and believe in hard work and have done so for over 40 years but I would never kick a dog while it's down, most of these people have fallen into a deep hole that is very hard to climb out of, you don't know how they came to this point, it could be many tragic reasons, yes there are some who are just plain idiots but most have a sad history and just basically as you say gave up hope, giving up hope is a pretty sad feeling ..just saying edit... I would never kick a dog full stop by the way, but you know what I mean, and I really think firstly the dealers need putting away for 20 years and the homeless helped in these establishments ..93% who were helped stayed on the program, 93% is an amazing result and I respect their work

@@derek-press I'm what people would consider conservative too and I completely agree. These are our fellow human beings, and we can all get sucked down this hole, I've been there myself so I understand.

Wow. Worse than this is... horrific.

Is Downtown worth visiting as a tourist despite the situation or will be glad to leave?

@@konrad6995 Definitely worth seeing! Just stay to the main tourist areas and you'll be good.

@@nwminiaturesandmoreI feel sorry for the vets and mentally ill people who are homeless but they need to put the drug addicts in jail for at least 5 years no early release this is disgusting letting them do drugs in public and ruin public places

When do you think people will start enforcing the laws that the cops aren't ALLOWED to?

@@troutfitter547 they won’t. And that BS is spreading - just look at Chicago a couple of weeks ago. The only thing that the overcorrection regarding police brutality has accomplished is to make every crime a possible death sentence. If law enforcement isn’t allowed to do their job, citizens will and they aren’t required to use any escalation of force. In my state, a person is justified in using or threatening to use deadly force if he or she reasonably believes that using or threatening to use such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the imminent commission of a forcible felony. Great bodily harm is defined as any harm more severe than minor or slight harm and could include wounds that bleed profusely or require stitches, broken bones, and injuries requiring surgery. For example, bruises generally won’t fall under this but shove someone down causing them to hit their head or chase someone with an axe or knife or box cutter would likely meet the elements. A forcible felony includes treason; murder; manslaughter; sexual battery; carjacking; home-invasion robbery; robbery; burglary; arson; kidnapping; aggravated assault; aggravated battery; aggravated stalking; aircraft piracy; unlawful throwing, placing, or discharging of a destructive device or bomb; and any other felony which involves the use or threat of physical force or violence against any individual. All that progressive policing has accomplished is to force people to defend themselves and they will do that with lethal force.

What kind of Question is that ? Looks like a Dilemma Question man !

Dude was just thinking the same thing.

It’s going to get a whole lot worse. A very small portion of those under 30 will ever own a home just because of ownership consolidation and low wages alone. Add the looming deterioration of the petrodollar and AI replacement of unskilled and clerical labor… the future in America is gonna be wild.

5Minute Major right on

Exactly. And they wonder why we have a homeless problem even when 20 minutes north of Seattle in Everett they want over $1,000 for a one bedroom or higher. Even Marysville.That’s a average and I think I’m being generous. Cost of living skyrocketed but wages haven’t. Some California cities solved their problems with rent control.

Darth Revan My in-laws live in Everett. Every time we fly into Seattle I am floored by how it is such a disgusting city with pretty parts. So sad.

Luv2Dnce4 I was born and raised in Everett and yes, you’re right. Downtown Everett is pretty ugly. The most ugly part. Broadway is filled with homeless people on every street corner and half the city is just car sales lots. The entire city is propped up by Boeing and the Navy. I’d hate to see what happens to it if Boeing ever closes down the plant and the Navy moved elsewhere. I don’t think Everett proper would survive. You should see it right now, useless construction on Broadway right now that’s been going on for months and a few burned out buildings that’ve been “remodeling” for close to a year. It’s a shame that Marysville is becoming just as bad as Everett and I can only assume Stanwood will follow the same route.

Luv2Dnce4 Also, everyone complains about junkies but I hardly ever see people talk about all the alcoholics. Every gas station in down town Everett you have homeless people waiting at 6AM waiting just for the stores to open the freezers for the alcohol. I don’t know why anyone ever brings this up, as it’s also part of the problem but I’m not saying I have the solution to it either. Go to the Jacksons on Pacific Avenue near the freeway exit and I guarantee every morning you’ll find a homeless person there waiting to buy their alcohol.

Worse

I wish that people would take this opportunity to comprehend how fundamentally broken the country has become within the last two generations. At first I was wondering if the angry people in the townhall were upset about the initiative to "defund the police"... until I realized this was released *3 months* before the death of George Floyd. This was also before the pandemic, and while Trump was in office. So many bipartisan issues that people blame the country's problems on were not factors in this. The city did not decline because of economic fallout after a mismangaged pandemic, and it also did not improve when Biden came into office. This is neither a republican nor a democratic issue, it's a citizen vs politician issue period. Only when people come to realize this and band together as they did in the townhall to demand answers and change will we see true progress in society, as more than anything they desire for people to remain angry and distracted, quabbling about trivial culture war issues while they rake in money. The people of this country must wake up and realize that neither political party has their interests at heart, and their voting allegiance will not make an impact. They must come together and demand change from these corrupt crooks.

Starts with the governor....

They the councilors are the mentally retarded..or are they?.doing this purposely to destroy western christian civilization

@Michael RedCrow Kshama sawant - city council

Amazing that the city administrators in this video say "Call 911", and - TODAY - the same people are moving to defund the police. The real problem is that they will just vote for another Democrat, and the problems will continue. It's like someone telling you not to touch a wire because you'll get burned... then you touch the wire, and get burned... and you, and your family say "how did we allow this to happen?" You didn't "allow" this to happen. You INSISTED that it happen! Michigan's Governor, during the Covid nonsense, CHOSE to shut down the entire state, even though the statistical numbers were less than 1 in 15,000. She chose to shut down her entire State's economy for 3 months, including the rural areas that had almost ZERO cases of Covid-19. NOW, she is blaming the FEDERAL Government for not funding her budget shortfalls, as though money appears through "magic". She CHOSE to cut her hand off, and is now screaming "I've only got one hand!" This is how Democrats think! In truth, this is how they ACT, without actual thinking. And dullards just keep voting for them, over and over again. It's like drinking more poison, hoping the new poison will kill the old poison. You deserve what you get! You deserve EXACTLY the government you vote for!

tinka isn’t she the city councilwoman (and her staff) who unlocked city hall for occupation by Chazistanians?

Yeah!!! That was the first thing I thought, too.😆

Haha 🤣 epic!!

That’s funny. But not really. I had no idea.

Well, yes that is good. NOW, work on bigger problems, start small , then work up.

Whilst they shoot up on the astroturf lawn

Yeah I bet you were shocked.

animals has a better live ............................ they treat people like shit and don't help those poor people they walk by and do nothing. The fact that people accept this from a government... is the fact that they are far away from humanity. Christianity does not want this. The fact that people have disappeared from Christianity..... means that dirty money determines everything. People with money should donate some.

At least there is no shortage of overpriced condo development!

Actually watched a documentary about Portland that was pretty much the same a couple days ago. Only difference was they blamed heroin more..

Or community building, turn it in a mental ward.change laws leaning toward, adults not able to take care supporting, bathing for themselves, making forcing them to be committed to the ward of state.

Get weapons take out the people who can't be helped. If city won't take care of it the take them out. Clean they trash they had and plant some flowers. The body? Take it to the cemetery to incenerate all the bodies.

Change laws of arrest for any drugs, then execute via hanging.

@@acbulgin2 And if you ended up on the streets, would you resort to stealing and other crimes jus to stay alive? I get the connection between homelessness and drugs and crime.

But Seattle, San Fran and other major cities are fooling themselves to think that there is a single, simple solution to the problem.

I was in Seattle 6 years ago to welcome my 1st great grandbaby into this world. It was nothing like what I just saw of the current situation you guys are forced to live in or look at .idk how any mayor, aldermen, state rep up to the governor and any elected official underneath would ever let the citizens that elected them be subjected to all the hazards jeopardizing life or limb. This is the definition of failure and the evidence proving that millions just witnessed . The Blatant disregard for the health and safety of every citizen or visitor there in Seattle...where are codes officials? Why arent mayor and local city officials putting boots and overalls on cleaning up their mess??? Have all their payroll checks cleared in the past several years cuz if they have taken money for work they did not in fact deliver or even attempt doing in 1st place, uh theft by deception and fraud if they were any other contract labor. Looks like a big cluster fk of a mess and why revolution is the word of the day everywhere we turn nowadays..

Mey sis lives there. She is die hard liberal! She never mentions this stuff!

They send their kids to private schools, live in gated neighborhoods, get benefits and pensions while the average MIDDLE class citizen has to live this way. VOTE THEM ALL OUT.

, , and the citizens who voted for them are just as culpable of their problem.. . or , maybe the politician were voted in by smartatic /dominion ?

So they will replace their low IQ liberal politicians with other low IQ liberals.. Yep. That will solve the problem.

This is what happens when elections at all levels become stolen: banana republic poverty

Yes the problem exists for these people but do you think it's right to do what they're saying they want to do for them you might want to check your damn head or you're one of them criminals

SF is definitely worse. But when you're in hell who cares if it's 1600 degrees or 1615 degrees? It's all hell.

It's sad some ones asleep at the government of Seattle and San Francisco &Portland also Nashville wake up Governments make a plan and stick to it.

You don't realize it is the agenda. From the ashes AI rises to the top of the triangle or pyramid watch "I, Pet Goat II" where (AI)lucifer rises from the working class... it is the agenda for the "profane."

​@@jamessidaway8934Wtf are you talking about?

Vulgar& Profane,Indeed. Walking Dead Automatons . Towers 5/6G Human Acceleration . Fiber Optic cables in the ground Radiating the masses,LED Streett Lamps Smart Meters. If you Live in America you dont have much time left. The gadgets and those tapped into the gadgets are accelerating the lifeforms into extinction. 2025 they announce most people in America only have so many years to live because they were exposed to a certain radiation composition and will only have til 2030. In major Grocery Stores now 70% Bionengineered Food , what type of life expectancy you think you arw going to have eating food with Zero Information in it ? Destruction of America was Engineered for A Long Time. It took Treasonous Traitorous Cowards at the top to do it. LEFT OR THE RIGHT , Same Dead Bird. America is Gone, Invaded with No Defense Numbers

Vancouver, BC is the same, and for the same reason. Liberals.

Mary McEwen I am about to leave and feeling disgusted.

@@shane99ca sounds like a bunch of idiotic f/n Republicans always to blame someone else, go figure.

@@charlesjohnson674 That's not a window; Charles; it's the mirror. It's liberals who always blame others and never solve anything themselves. If Republicans had their way, these people would be in mental hospitals, prisons, or the ground. I know it and you know it. So you may dispense with the posturing; you don't even believe it yourself.

@@shane99ca Oh, I believe everything I mentioned, sorry.

GoldenState Trump and his cronies are not the ones wanting the drug cartels coming in via Southern border towns. Are you lying under a rock Golden State? It is a disease called liberalism and globalization allowing migrants drug cartels and human traffickers to walk in because all the liberal Democrats made their money on the corrupt money from El Chapo and drug cartels. Did you hear that Trump wants a wall and Golden State are stopping it. They lie to you and blame Trump and dumb people swallow the garbage people like Pelosi Newsome Schiff Maxine Waters KamalaHarris live in mansions and don’t give a damn
