Ten months into Mayor Durkan’s term, KIRO ran a story on its MyNorthwest blog, “Why won’t Seattle Mayor Durkan meet with the Duwamish Tribe?” https://mynorthwest.com/1125149/why-wont-seattle-mayor-durkan-meet-with-the-duwamish-tribe/.

Well, it’s not like the answer is mysterious.

Eight months after that, reports the West Seattle Blog, the Mayor “scheduled a pop-up town hall/resource fair” (May 29) and the Duwamish Tribe invited its supporters to join in at the event to ask that the Mayor “support the Duwamish Tribe and acknowledge them as the first people of Seattle.” https://westseattleblog.com/2019/05/video-mayor-acknowledges-duwamish-tribe-answers-community-questions-south-park-town-hall/

So they were still asking, with nary a peep from the Mayor.

But then it happened.

“Honorable” mention.

Twice!

“The mayor did just that, twice, while speaking and answering questions at the South Park Community Center.”

So a politician who finally paid lip service to undisputed fact is cause for Attagirl!??

Apparently, in this town, yeah.

I attended the event. After the Q&A was over, I approached Sabrina Bolieu, the Mayor’s “Business Liaison” who is “also helping with the tribal outreach strategy.” Sabrina had been screening questions written beforehand on cards available at the reception table. I was curious why mine had not been read.

She explained that questions about recognizing the Duwamish had not been aired because the Town Hall was about public safety, but she assured me that “Mayor Durkan is working on a response to that.”

Now, six weeks later, I write this letter after two ignored emails to Bolieu and one to Durkan herself in which I merely asked for answers to obvious questions about the Mayor’s unresponsiveness to the Duwamish and her utter lack of action so far.

Extent of Durkan’s “outreach” to the Duwamish?

Still zippo.

Either Durkan is playing hooky from “working on that” or simply doesn’t know how to get work done. At least, not any work that would break the deafening silence the Duwamish have gotten from the Mayor’s office for the better part of two centuries.

The Duwamish haven’t asked for their land back. Anyone who actually reads the “Treaty” of Point Elliott, 1855, (calling it a treaty is beyond reprehensible,) will wonder why the hell not.

I asked the Mayor if she’d read the treaty.

Silence.

The Duwamish have not asked the City to start paying rent.

I asked Durkan if she pays rent to the tribe whose land she finally, twice, admitted Seattle sits on. It’s easy: Real Rent Duwamish, https://www.realrentduwamish.org/.

Silence.

The Duwamish have not asked the Mayor for much.

Admitting their existence on one occasion a year and a half into her term, nothing done or said previously and nothing since, amounts to what, exactly?

~ Yeah, I know you’re there. I know you’ve been screwed over since whites came and stole your land out from under you. I know my office has ignored you for the 164 years since. And I know you’ve been asking for a meeting. ~

Attagirl, Mayor! Good for you.

And then… ?

Manderley, maybe you could volunteer to help instead of using your gripe as an excuse to bash Pride Month or assuming that “Seattle politics” has anything to do with it.

[mark47n]

@Angelscrest: It makes no sense, legally, for the OP to be the one pursuing evidence and the local businesses have no obligation to provide it to the OP. If there is a criminal complaint and there is evidence to be pursued then it should be sought by the police otherwise chain of custody, which protects the integrity of the evidence, would be compromised and the evidence can be suppressed if there is a criminal prosecution.

That a similar event happened to you doesn’t make this a story that is more easily swallowed whole.

[buttercup]

I agree with Mark. If someone is assaulting me I’m calling 911 not a friend. I wouldn’t wait till I got away, I want the police to come take him away in handcuffs. This is also a good reason not to park in alleys and go else where. Park in a proper spot.

[mark47n]

I did read the story. It appeared that the police were called AFTER the friend was called. As for the apparent victim, well, they’re not here, there friend is making a plea for video that, if it exists, would be from the surrounding businesses which would be a much more constructive use of time and would also be sought by the police thereby avoiding problematic chain of custody issues if there was to be any sort of legal resolution.

I didn’t victim shame/blame beyond say that hitting the man with a car is vehicular assault and saying that this whole story is ridiculous. Perhaps you should reread MY post. Again, the credulousness of people sometimes amazes me and posting a story like this one cries out for scrutiny.

[KBear]

Uh, Mark, have you ever been to the Junction? There are some peculiar people there, even at 11 o’clock in the morning. Police WERE called. Read the story again. And don’t shame/blame the victim.

[mark47n]

This whole thing is peculiar, really, the illegal parking notwithstanding.

The first thing that comes to mind is why did your friend not call the police instead you? What could you do about this situation?

The second is this: why are we so willing to take the word of complete strangers so completely? We have no idea what really took place. We have the OP relaying their friends story of possible assault by screaming guy followed by possible vehicular assault by lady in car. To me this sounds so completely ridiculous that I question its accuracy. But that’s me, not being a caring and credulous member of the community.

It’s the not calling the police part, by the way, that raises a big red flag. The few times I’ve had to call 911 I didn’t start by calling my buddies to see if they can help, I just called the police.

To preempt the inevitable WTF all I can say is this: a second hand story is just that, a story. I don’t know the either party and the story strains belief without corroborating evidence. Why should I believe it? Just because? I think not.

[mehud7]

I am sorry that this happened to your friend. Was she a customer at the pet food store? Do you think the guy could have been the owner upset that she was in customer parking without being a customer?

[miws]

Honesty like that is wonderful.

Back when I was a cashier at McLendon’s I had a customer, maybe a little younger than me, come through my line. His purchases came to just under $20.00. He handed me what registered in my mind as a $100.00 bill, so I gave him $80.00 and change in return.

There may have been a couple seconds pause, and he says; “Oh, man. I can’t do this to you. I only gave you a $20.00. I thought he was just joking, doing a reverse of that old scam where a “customer” will give a cashier a $10.00 bill, and after the till is closed claim that they paid with a $20.00 bill, so I just laughed at him. I then realized he was serious and checked under the till tray and there were no $100.00 bills under there, just a $20.00.

Needless to say, I thanked him profusely. I also replayed the whole part of when he gave me the money back in my head, and could *still* swear that he’s given me a $100.00 bill.

I suspect that theft is a huge drag on our economy. We all pay more because some people don’t pay at all. At a certain point, retailers that effectively curb shoplifting (think Costco and Amazon?) will have such a price advantage that traditional retailers will lose business. Until then, I think stores do an analysis – weighing the cost of shoplifting against the cost of enforcement and behaving accordingly.

Shoplifting does appear rampant. I remember shopping at Rite Aid a while back and the checker commented that they had several bottles of expensive premium booze stolen earlier that day. At $40 or $50 per bottle that really sends prices up for the rest of us.

Hello Graciano,

Good news — the bicyclists already pay the taxes! The majority of bicycle facilities are being paid for out of the Levy to Move Seattle which voters passed in 2016. The Levy is funded by property taxes. I’m a bicyclist and I also pay property taxes.

Keep in mind — the biggest beneficiary of improved bicycle facilities are car drivers. Just imagine how much worse the car commute would be if the 1,200 (often more) bicyclists crossing the West Seattle Bridge each day were in a single occupancy car!
