This police chief is ridiculous in her excuses.  We are not a 3rd world country………….yet.

Rocky, tell me more about how great the country was back in the 30’s when you were growing up?  OK, no autonomous collectives in a tiny area of a city you don’t live in anyway on the other side of the country from you, I understand that.

I was already a practicing dentist in the 1930`s.  FDR and I were good buddies.

Will you be a guest at my 117th birthday celebration?  If you misbehave, I hope the police will come and haul you off to the drunk tank to sleep it off.  Just don`t tip over my wheelchair.  I promise the party will not be in Seattle!

We are a Third World country. Anybody been to the Tenderloin recently? Oakland? Downtown LA?

I have another thought about Seattle’s whatever it is, democracy in practice…the grand experiment of Jefferson and Adams, Madison and Hamilton… continues.  Of course for all of Jefferson’s significant issues, the man at heart was a revolution who wrote eloquently of overthrowing the government on a regular basis.

as the saying goes, “experiments happen.”  See Thomas Edison.

GE would be doing a whole lot better if Edison and JP Morgan were still around.  They were good friends of mine.
