    It’s easy in all of the turmoil of the Presidential election to forget that there are local races that will impact our lives as much or more than that of the Presidency.

    like that of our State Supreme Court…

    I am so sorry you had to deal with this. This should not have happened and you have every right to immediately call the police or say whatever you need to say to make the harassment stop. This is not a case of “just words” either. This is a case of a complete stranger stopping to comment on your looks, then following you, stalking if you will, while verbally harassing you. This is not only inappropriate, it’s inexcusable and unacceptable. Thank you for posting your story and feel free to file a report with the police about this person!

    redblack…I can vouch that you are an extremely nice, thoughtful guy, and would treat in public as you treat here.

    I am one of those on a semi-fixed income. 69 years old and working part time because I have bills. If those property taxes go up again for my landlord, and he raises my rent again anytime soon, I may be pitching a tent in Mayor Ed’s front yard. I hope it doesn’t come true. But the economy is tough for those on basically a fixed income. I know a few it’s affecting.

    And, yes, I’m a proud librul… :D

    I have to start off saying that I’m extremely nervous posting this on here. But I’ve been encouraged, being that this was an upsetting thing that happened to me in our community, so I’m going for it. This is not a rant, and I would personally appreciate it not being treated as so. I hope that it will only bring about contemplative conversation and maybe some minute change for the better.

    On Wednesday, (just the day before hearing Michelle Obama’s speech), I was verbally harassed pretty badly by a man in a vehicle, while I was out running on Alki. It was definitely not the first time this sort of thing has happened. I stood up for myself pretty well this time, actually. Specifically, after the second time he cat-called me in 2 miles, I stopped, turned around, and said, “Cat-calling is not a compliment, it makes me feel objectified.” He proceeded to yell some pretty nasty things at me, and later catch up to me in his vehicle and follow me for about a block continuing the yelling and name-calling. I didn’t stop, but yelled back, “If you keep talking to me I’m going to call the police, you’re harassing me.” And he eventually drove away. There were a bunch of people around the whole time. I was scared and angry, but felt I had to do my best not to show it. Because they were “just words.” I think it’s got to be hard to really understand the impact of such words if you have not had them said directly to you in a moment of true fear and threat. Even as I write this, I automatically think of all the potential reactions: “Why were you running alone? What were you wearing? What did you say or do to provoke him? What exactly did he say? It couldn’t have been that bad. You got lucky. Take it as a compliment. It could have been worse. He just didn’t know what to say to you. Boys will be boys. Men just can’t help themselves. Can’t you take a joke? He probably just thought you were hot. He was probably trying to impress his friend. Do you think you accomplished anything by standing up for yourself? You know you can’t change how he thinks, so why say anything? Forgive and forget. I guess all you can do is let it go. You probably made it worse. You should have ______. Etc.” I like to think that most people don’t want this to be the reality of daily life for women, so the easy reaction is to explain it away. It’s also shocking, and most of the time I think people don’t know what to do or say. This is just part of an overwhelmingly huge and extremely long-term problem. Problem-solving requires action. Words are actions. Please don’t excuse words when they hurt, humiliate, objectify, threaten, or belittle people. They’re not “just words.” Some things to say instead: “I’m sorry that happened to you. I’m sorry you have to deal with that. That’s not right. You’re right, it isn’t fair. You don’t deserve to be treated that way.” It’s a start.

    williamf64, the elitists I’m concerned about are those who face no accountability for the decisions they make to the detriment of millions of ordinary working people. You know, the CEO’s who ruin good businesses through incompetence or even fraud yet are allowed by their boards of directors to retire with huge payouts?

    That noted elitist and conman, Rick Scott, was allowed (or encouraged?) to depart Columbia/HCA healthcare in the midst of a Medicare fraud investigation of practices that began under his watch and that his successors were left to settle for $600 million. Scott went on to become the governor of Florida, promoting reforms such as preventing the use of the expressions “climate change” or “global warming” in statements from state environmental agencies, no doubt because he is repelled by those terms most often associated with educated “elitists.”

    You’re no doubt familiar with John Stumpf, the former CEO of Wells Fargo who sold $61 million in company stock a month before the investigation into the massive fraud scheme that went on for years under his watch was completed. He was allowed to retire while walking away with an estimated $134 million after the $41 million he forfeited in the light of the scandal. Do you see that $41 million as accountability or the cost of protecting the retirement package. Do you suppose he’ll face any legal liability if and when there are legal proceedings taken against the bank? Do you suppose the board of directors that has watched over all of this will be held to account?

    As an educated elitist, I have come to believe that for decades, ordinary working Americans have been fed a line of lies and distortions intended to keep them from looking at the rot that underlies the core of this system and instead blame various minorities and segments of the population—-welfare recipients, immigrants, women, liberals, etc.

    Elitists? The fact that you don’t appear to recognize who the real elitists are in this country is instructive. Are the elitists simply the people who have a higher education or are they perhaps those with enough money to accrue power which they use to influence everything from politics to media?

    BTW, being impatient with intentionally odd capitalization isn’t elitist; it’s more like being put off by someone belching at the dinner table.

    jon: i give it like i get it. if i saw you in public making exaggerated claims about taxation without representation, i probably would engage you in polite conversation… unless you were yelling and waving a gun around (which is how i picture betty453.)

    by the way, PC is another way of saying polite. so, yes, i was raised to be polite, but not to suffer bullies.

    as far as my anonymity goes, the internet is a big place, and it’s chock full o’nuts. i have met other forum posters, and i’m pretty sure they would tell you that i’m a nice guy. but i am an introvert, by default. i’m not on social media of any kind because i don’t like complete strangers knowing my business, for one thing. for another, i keep in touch with family just fine without facebook.

    why do you care who i am, anyway? let’s discuss ideas, not each other.

    so, back to the ideas:

    yes, i know you don’t get magical cash when your home’s value increases. but i think for most (obviously not all) homeowners in seattle, the booming economy and increasing business revenue have also increased wages and hours worked. i’m a union hod carrier, and i’m currently having my most productive year since i started doing this 25 years ago. i’m not struggling with taxes. bills to corporations are far worse.

    i can’t speak for those on fixed incomes.

    Mutt, I don’t believe Hillary or her apologists are defending what she did; she’s been acknowledging it was a mistake for some time. I appreciate she wasn’t as forthcoming and clean about it at first as she should have been, and that served to weaken her credibility. But the legal issue is what matters, that and whether or not any of the classified material got into the wrong hands, and the FBI investigation for the justice department found no basis for legal action even though they strongly condemned her action.

    This remains an issue mostly for those who didn’t like Hillary in the first place. Nothing new here.

    An important statement in this morning’s discussion is that every human being has a right to exist. If someone is homeless, they have to “be” somewhere. I very strongly disagree with the proposals, based on the ACLU and Columbia Legal Service’s understanding of a recent court case, that urban camping on park properties is appropriate (and legal). Park properties are not the place to warehouse human beings. However, there is an obligation to provide shelter. Otherwise, what kind of society are we? IF there are people who are not ready to clean up, they also need to be sheltered. What has come of these discussions is an understanding that this issue is not going to go away. The council needs to sit down, roll up their sleeves, and do some serious thinking about solutions that really work. As mentioned this morning, the Jungle has been ignored, mostly, for the last decade. City government has failed us, and the organizations that purport to serve the homeless have failed us. Time to start from scratch and focus on some humane solutions.

    I read through much of the ordinance and see some tremendous opportunities for attorneys to make lots of money off tax payers through arguing the many subjective statements in the document. Considering how many lawyers work in Seattle, I can see why the homeless are being lured here with freebies and used as political pawns to fleece tax payers.

    Largely, this proposal is a joke because urban campers will simply move their tents around faster than the City can legally act.

    We already have laws that forbid urban “homesteading”. I think the idea of urban homesteading on public land is in direct opposition of private property rights since this legislation builds towards creating a protected class that can sue with impunity for stuff they never had exclusive rights to.

    Perhaps the city can lease some of the vast open stretches of port property and let private non-profits manage urban camp sites–where individuals are assigned a specific space at a nominal cost. Urban camping rules, of course, to include no drugs, no alcohol, no crap piles, etc. –Violators get immediately evicted just like any camp ground around the state.

    Lets just enforce the law and empower some private non-profits with designated space not currently used or enjoyed by the public.

    Wow.. What a compassionate group.
    Personal attacks and of course the Elitist Liberals making Fun Of CapITaliZatiOn. and speel’in. But, of course anyone that might have a problem with ” Letters n Such ” are more than likely a product of our FAILED edumica-shun system.
    The same EdumiKation system that Liberals oppose any change too for any reason. No performance requirements , No reviews, No new procedures or overhaul of any sort just more money that’s it. After all the U.S taxpayer is getting a Fantastic return on our investment by spending the most in the world per Student and getting what… ? The 22nd best Education ?
    Only in Liberal-ville with the use of Liberal Math can you pay the MOST -per- student in the World and get the 22nd best in performance and somehow that is a ” Great ” return on Investment. Brilliant !
    The Liberal solution to everything is simply MORE money. That is it ! But, in the real world where there is thing called ” Accountability ” you simply can’t do a crappy job on something and turn and look at you Boss ,Investor, Banker or Customer and say …” Sure we did a crappy job but if you lend, allocate or pay us more money we will do a better job. Well maybe if it works out that way”.
    It comes down to the fact that Liberals are a group of Elitists that know how our society should be run and anyone that argues against there Ideology, questions there decisions or demands for more money are just unenlightened, uneducated Haters & Racists that need to be ignored or pushed out of the way ” for the good of the collective” To use a Hugo Chavez-ism.
    It is a bit funny how we don’t hear much praise of Venezuela like we used too ? Kshama Sawant’s philosophy is right in line with Chavez so I’m wondering why we don’t hear the praise that we used to hear about O’l Hugo ? After his leftist policies that were praised by Sean Penn and many others. Who needs food to eat anyway ?

    Lots of Kool Aid from both sides here. Mark me disgusted and resigned demo party a few years ago. Did not and will not join the GOP due to glassy eyed social issue right wing nuts that poison the brand. “Those who take extreme positions in American politics are always wrong” ~~~~ President Dwight Eisenhower.

    That said, the Dem nominee did in fact sign two very restrictive non disclosure agreements on January 22, 2009. One is for Top Secret materials, the other is for Sensitive/Compartmentalized Information. Both affirm and acknowledge receipt of training and indoctrination in secure transmission, handing and retention of data. Both indicate there is no reservation or deceit on the part of the employee signing off.

    The documents are on the State Department’s webpage the Judge in the Judicial Watch law suit forced state to create and populate with records. For your review I will attempt to post a link to the pdf of one of them. From there, it should be easy to dig up whatever else you want. All federal court records are kept on a site called “Pacer”. The cases are in the DC District. Your first 1500 pages are free.

    Make up your own mind about whether it was allowed to set up a private server as one signed the non disclosure agreements. Also note there are emails that are still so sensitive the court would not order them published. There are things that are “born classified”. Here’s your link. I hope this works:

    chrome-extension://oemmndcbldboiebfnladdacbdfmadadm/http://freebeacon.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/HRC-SCI-NDA1.pdf

    Happy reading. The image is not clear, probably by design, enlarge it and you’re in business.

    I personally don’t think there is any defense for transmission or retention on an unofficial server. Your mileage may vary.

    As a daily bike commuter from Admiral area to South Park along Harbor Ave and W. Marginal Way I have seen a HUGE increase in vehicles from cars to RV’s that are obviously lived-in, as well as those who camp in the thickets that border those miles of roads.

    Additionally, the amount of ‘stuff’ has grown too! Lots and lots of garbage, cloths, household items, and who knows what else has began piling-up.

    I can only imagine what it must be like to live out there under normal circumstances before adding all this wind, rain and run-off to the mix.

    Redblack, Thank you for your learned comments. Of course we cannot commend you personally because you are anonymous. I do not think you would speak to me in person with the same tone as you have written. You are probably to PC to do so.

    Redblack and Skeeter fail to realize that increased value of property does not mean increased revenue to the property owner unless they sell the property. 13.5 % increase in 2016 coupled with an expected 20 % increase in 2017 can be very hard for anyone to budget working for wages or on a fixed income. People will be priced out of their homes. Some will end up on the street under I-5 in the jungle.

    JanS, Blog or rant; I do not know. I was just trying to have a discussion about what I see as our cost of living getting out of control and local government wasting funds involved in projects where basically we are throwing good money to bad investments. Mean while we are ignoring our roads, education, creating traffic nightmares, harboring criminals while telling the police that they are cruel.

    Joanne Brayden, Thank you for using your real name and understanding that landlords need to recover costs. Most renters think they do not have to pay when they vote for another initiative to be paid for by property taxes. You have the picture.

    dhg, I have worked around gay people all my life. I have no problem. I just do not care to have their life philosophy thrown in our face daily by a mayor who is fully concentrating on that segment of life and ignoring other more important problems. Do not tell us that the emphasis on the Gay community by the City of Seattle has cost nothing. Seafair is a big money maker for the city.

    To all: The best fuel economy from today’s cars is at 40-45 miles per hour. Installing Bus Bulbs, going from 4 lanes to two, reducing speed limits from 35 MPH to 25 MPH is an environmental problem. In addition, if one expands the Lead Time between two points, one expands the Work in Progress. Meaning the longer it takes to get from A to B the more cars will be on the road at any given point in time. So we are polluting the air and we creating traffic nightmares and destroying commerce.

    JoB: I think a lot of people are afraid to speak their minds about real issues since most of the “prominent voices” in Seattle are far left of center.

    I had a women the other day go absolutely nuts when she saw a “Trump” bumper sticker laying on the dash of my truck. She followed me for two blocks honking and screaming obscenities over nothing more than her assumptions that I am a stupid, racist, bigoted, womanizing redneck that had no business being in West Seattle.

    She has no idea that I simply prefer to keep a constitutional Supreme Court rather than a transition to a subservient liberal court that serves Hillary Clinton’s specific agenda. The woman has no clue how sick I am of the government corruption and regulatory repression that has crippled businesses like mine all over the country. She didn’t stop for a moment to consider that I had family and friends directly affected by terrorist attacks from people that should have never been in this country.

    There is a prevailing attitude here in Seattle that extinguishes the possibility of reasonable, balanced discussion about important issues that will effect our future–So we are left with bantering about boring triviality. The important issues will come to pass without discussion and we will all pay the consequences for the dominance of emotion over reason.

    I hate to be a killjoy in the midst of all this “reasonableness” .. but Seattle has just been issued a high wind alert for the latter part of this week. While you are presumably safe and warm in your homes, Seattle’s homeless will be on the streets or in the woods during this event.

    Yes Michael Waldo.. studies have been done. In my opinion, Seattle’s homeless population is one of the most studied in the nation, but you don’t hear much about the results of those studies because they don’t fit the public perception of Seattle’s homeless.. people from somewhere else who prefer to be homeless and came to Seattle for our “great” services.

    What they show is a rising population of single displaced women (often homeless as a result of domestic violence), single displaced elderly whose limited incomes can no longer cover Seattle’s rising rents, displaced families whose working adults can’t cover Seattle’s rising rents, disabled people who are in the process of applying for Social Security Disability with legitimate health claims (some for as long as 9 years) but whose benefits when they are granted won’t cover housing costs and last but not least our community’s mentally ill (many of whom are addicted to both legal and illegal substances).

    Our supplemental housing lists are so large they are run by lottery and if you are lucky enough to be granted a voucher you might not be able to find housing before it expires.

    That’s the reality.

    Yes Waynster. tiny houses would be a better idea and in many cases would actually benefit homeowners. I can tell you from personal experience that the homeless i have had helping me with my gardens have been invaluable to me. If i wasn’t a renter i would be parking an RV in the back yard. It breaks my heart to have them come work with me during the day, to feed them and befriend them and then send them back to a tent on the hillside where they are subject to being run off on a regular basis.

    Andasai.. you want 6 months for further study. No big deal, right? Except.. those 6 months include another winter with more homeless deaths due to hypothermia and weather related illnesses.

    Seattle instituted a 10 year plan.. with an incredible amount of study. After 10 years, that group concluded that the solution was housing. The Mayor didn’t like their plan and commissioned yet another study which was followed by another. Again, the solution is housing. Yet, you think putting our homeless population at risk for another 6 months for yet another study is the answer?
    Not likely.

    The only logical result of postponing this plan, which would designate specific areas as possible temporary shelters with services is to gain time to keep them out of your neighborhood.

    All if can say is look around. They are already here (hiding in plain sight) and their numbers are increasing.

    We need immediate solutions that address the core problems.. not endless studies with little or no real action.

    The problem is that a lot of people are moving here, so the city’s population is growing extremely fast. These people need to live somewhere. Because there wasn’t and still isn’t enough housing for them, rents and housing costs are rising and rising and pricing more and more people out of the city. So more housing has to be built to accomodate the new arrivals.

    What could we do about this? Ask employers such as Amazon to quit expanding, or to move outside the city limits? Pass laws against people moving here?

    Yes, growth could probably be managed better, and yes, some buildings are ugly as sin. But we still need to build more housing somewhere, unless we can stop job growth and stop people from moving here.

    Here’s a recipe for them if you feel like cooking…

    Almost-Famous Fried Pickles

    Total Time:25 minPrep:15 minCook:10 min

    Yield:4 servingsLevel:Easy

    ——————————————————————————–

    ——————————————————————————–

    Ingredients
    For the sauce:

    1/4 cup mayonnaise

    1 tablespoon drained horseradish

    2 teaspoons ketchup

    1/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

    For the pickles:

    Peanut or vegetable oil, for frying

    1/2 cup all-purpose flour

    1 3/4 teaspoons Cajun seasoning

    1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

    1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

    Kosher salt

    2 cups sliced dill pickles, drained

    Add Checked Items To Grocery List

    Directions

    Make the sauce: Mix the mayonnaise, horseradish, ketchup and Cajun seasoning in a bowl; set aside.

    Fry the pickles: Heat 1 inch peanut oil in a pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Meanwhile, whisk the flour, Cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning, cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup water in a large bowl until smooth. Spread the pickles on paper towels and pat dry.

    Add half of the pickles to the batter and toss to coat. Remove from the batter using a slotted spoon, letting the excess drip off, and add to the oil one at a time. Fry until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes; remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Return the oil to 375 degrees F and repeat with the remaining pickles and batter. Serve immediately with the prepared sauce.

    Technically not considered West Seattle proper but The Crawfish House in White Center can hook you up with a huge basket of fried pickles for a mere $2.50! It’s a bit of a funky place but it’s almost always packed and there is a reason for that. I have not tried fried pickles from many places so I have no idea how these compare to other fried pickles but we order them every time we go and they are quite tasty. I also recall that Burger Madness (near the 4th Ave. Costco) has fried pickles as well but I remember leaving the restaurant with a mental note that I wouldn’t order them there again (I think they were too expensive for a pretty small amount).
