    Thanks for that link, miws, and, as always, for the perspective.

    Here’s some other food for thought on the topic. Seattle U’s law school recently studied laws that criminalize homelessness and here’s what they found:

    “The first statewide analysis of laws criminalizing homelessness finds those laws are expensive, ineffective, and disproportionately impact already marginalized individuals. Those are among the key findings of a series of in-depth policy briefs released today by the Homeless Rights Advocacy Project at Seattle University School of Law that examine the scope and extent of the problem of criminalization in the State of Washington. These briefs are the most extensive of their kind in the nation.

    Among the findings:

    Washington cities are increasingly criminalizing homelessness. Since 2000, communities have enacted laws that create over 288 new ways to punish visibly poor people for surviving in public space.

    Millions of dollars could be saved if cities would redirect funds used for enforcement of these laws toward affordable housing.

    Homelessness and poverty disproportionately impact people of color, women, LGBTQ youth, individuals with mental illness, and veterans.

    The greater the income gap between the rich and the poor, the higher the rates of enforcement of these laws.

    Modern anti-homeless ordinances share the same form, phrasing, and function as historical discrimination laws, such as Jim Crow.”

    The four reports are:

    Washington’s War on the Visibly Poor: A Survey of Criminalizing Ordinances & Their Enforcement

    At What Cost: The Minimum Cost of Criminalizing Homelessness in Seattle and Spokane

    Discrimination at the Margins: The Intersectionality of Homelessness And Other Marginalized Groups

    The Wrong Side of History: A Comparison of Modern and Historical Criminalization Laws

    and if you’re interested you’ll find them all linked from here:

    Maybe it’s too obvious to mention, but there simply are not enough shelter beds or sanctioned encampment sites for the people who need them. Which would be why “clearing” encampments doesn’t change anything. Also, I’m extremely fortunate not to know from personal experience, but I would imagine one reason encampments come back “smaller at first” is that the people who previously owned a tent and likely not much else, no longer have even that. It’s really not clear to me how this helps anybody.

    toast, did you mean to post your second comment on your “Brass Bed” thread?

    Also, in case you didn’t see it, WWMom is interested in your keyboard for her son, but couldn’t reply on this thread.

    I believe it is the current issue of Bark that has an article on medical marijuana for dogs. Might be worth checking out.

    If you have a Vet you are comfortable speaking with, he/she might be able to check out these websites for you. Looks like they might be a good resource for information and products. WA based.

    Marijuana can be very toxic to pets. Dosage should be overseen by a Vet. Not sure about the hemp products, but I would assume the same would be true for them.

    My cat was just diagnosed with cancer. Before we can begin treatment, he has to start eating. I will be discussing using a hemp based product with my Vet.

    Hello Lisa and Shannon,

    I’m a West Seattle voter who, believe it or not, is still undecided. Recently, West Seattle Blog ran an update about a housing/neighborhood situation that seems emblematic of many of the issues surrounding our community. On 36th Ave SW, near Dakota St, there is before the DPD a proposal to replace a triplex with a 4-story, 20-unit, no-parking microhousing structure. https://westseattleblog.com/2015/10/west-seattle-development-comment-time-for-microhousing-at-4122-36th-sw-but-somethings-missing/

    What’s your take on this sort of a situation? Is it a good thing? A bad thing? Do you support this or is this something you oppose?

    I eagerly await your response.

    Thank You!
