It seems hard to believe, but local government within the City of Seattle is poised to take yet another turn further Left, as the incumbent City Attorney (Pete Holmes) has now conceded his bid for re-election in the non-partisan primary, held last Tuesday. The office is responsible for handling misdemeanor cases (felonies are handled by another office).
Two remaining candidates are still vying to succeed him in the General Election set for Tuesday/02nd November. One, an “abolitionist” named Nicole Thomas-Kennedy, has vowed to not-prosecute most misdemeanors at all. The other remaining candidate is a Republican who has argued for a more aggressive approach in those types of cases, and also campaigned against the homeless camps that have sprouted up in Seattle.
Normally, the idea of a Republican winning an election in Seattle would be in the realm of science-fiction. And I suspect that will be the case here, too. But the prospect of Thomas-Kennedy as City Attorney seems to be pushing Seattle’s leftward consensus to the absolute limit. Her past political statements and actions are truly on the edge, even for a city where Trump only got 8% of the vote in 2020.
The brutality I see in some of these videos is shocking to me. Some of these victims that get kicked in the skull like this have to end up with brain damage.

Maynard is a lyrical genius as Adam Jones is a graphical/imagery one as well…the former owns a vineyard, and the latter has worked Hollywood many times over + vid concepts…
Danny Carey (drummer) is the math/time controlling nerd and Chancellor is simply the Brit bass player..:

Agreed, but in liberal sh*tholes like this, they have draconian laws intended to pretty much lock up and throw away the key of anyone exercising their constitutional rights, and the judges out that way will only further reinforce the liberal cities' stance on it. To them, the "victims" are the perps, not the other way around.
Hence, it's either better not to venture into those sh*tholes to begin with and let the animals be the animals they are and keep them away from sane areas of the country.

They’ll be counting the votes for several more days, but it looks like the Republican won. That is amazing. She was publicly-endorsed by many high-profile Democrats in the Seattle area, including two former Governors of Washington (Gregorio and Locke).
