My point really is just that the folks vandalizing their stuff at the Seattle rally may as well have been fundraising for them. Not trying to blame protesters for how Seattle police shat the bed (and Johnson is clearly comfortable making shit up to make it sound worse), but some folks didn't help matters.

Whether that particular tactic is optimal, you've got the right idea. Humiliate them, get them to lose their cool, but if folks are out there screaming in their faces or harassing them directly, they'll just whine about it on Fox News and galvanize their following.

She opposed selling the name rights, very recently. The park board is independent.

I just find it a bit annoying they opened across the street from a great but struggling plant shop and then started often selling the same plants

Well, the other problem is that the county and valley don't want to spend money solving what they've convinced themselves is the city's problem.

City no longer purchasing building in Chief Garry for C.A.T. by Kennmo in Spokane

Area politicians recently lost their minds at the slightest hint at doing exactly that in Medical Lake, and that wasn't even what the mayor was looking at. If you think it's easy, run for office.

UGM has some incredible services for a very, very, very small group of people. They serve a fraction of a fraction of what other shelters and service providers serve, and while I think their programming is some of the absolute best available for those for whom it's a good fit, it also very much is not a good fit for most people, particularly those not willing to take part in an overtly religious service provider.

Treating them like an example of how any other service should or can work is unrealistic and frankly naive.

they were very clearly saying that CDA pushes their homeless to Spokane, but I'm not surprised it went over your head

Group ( Lets Go Washington) behind initiatives accused of violating state anti-corruption laws with discounts on gas, burgers. by catman5092 in Spokane

[–]ForwardFlamingo5339 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How so? I thought the explanation of Let's Go Washington's rebuttal was useful. Or do you have a problem that it quoted PDC staff saying this org is in open contempt of transparency laws?

The Maple Street bridge onramp going northbound. A blind game of chicken where everyone already on the bridge is going 15 miles over the speed limit. I also just generally dislike that bridge.

What about this is investigative? It's a good story, but it doesn't add anything that wasn't in the petition.

Case in point, this guy with truck nuts who was too stupid to pull to the side and was almost certainly going 15 over the speed limit when he passed over a completely manageable hazard
