Nothing will come of that - the counsel is empowered by gibs and the man and others like him do not have the votes to remove them nor the balls to seek other recourse. Im genuinly shocked he thought he was going to get something else from them.

Federal Way coffee shop closes because ‘it’s not safe anymore’

... It was a hard decision to close Marista’s doors after 18 years serving the Federal Way community, but one Kuehlthau had been thinking about for a while.

Safety is their No. 1 concern, she said, and it’s not safe anymore.

“The homeless have gotten horrible,” she said.

Just last week, Kuehlthau said a drunk, presumed to be homeless, man came into the shop and started shouting vulgar obscenities at the female baristas.

She’s also dealt with human waste in the surrounding bushes and the drive-thru, homeless people camping on the property and having to clean blood off of the bathroom walls.

There was one incident she mentioned of a homeless man throwing a capped syringe at the shop doors after being asked to leave. Another instance, she found two apparently homeless men sleeping on one of the tables outside when she opened the shop one morning. . .

So progressive and enlightened.

Seattle homeless crisis: Historic cemetery overrun with drugs and prostitution amid worsening problem



...Hoffman added: “Through 2013, the homeless population was relatively stable. And then what happened after that is it grew... because the policies they had enabled drug use behavior. It’s just absolutely tragic that we have people who are living inside of a cemetery, that are dealing drugs outside of a cemetery, and are running prostitution in a cemetery, but you see it on the streets all over Seattle.”...

Hoffman, who is running for city council, then took aim at “non-performing non-profits” for not doing enough to combat the crisis and revealed what he believes is the first step to turn back the tide.

“You have to wonder where the money goes, the first thing we need to do is audit where all that money is going. There’s plenty of money, the city’s coffers are full, the money is just not being spent appropriately,” ...

If folks set up on top of my ancestor's grave and refused to move, and the authorities refused to move them, there would be violence.

How far away is that? Could the existing workers living in Seattle commute there? That is actually pretty fucked for them. I guess Bezos called Seattle's bluff...
