    This is shocking. I mean the part where Seattle PD actually did something for once. My friend’s son was stabbed in the chest in downtown Seattle and he had the guy’s facebook page and info about his car and they pretty much said, “huh, that’s a shame.”

      That sucks. We need systemic change to our police departments.

      I almost think you should be glad that he wasn’t shot or beaten. There’s a reason SPD has been under a consent decree.

        He’s black, so I pretty much always worry about that. I just hoped the attempted murder of it all would warrant literally any response from them, but obviously that was stupid of me.

    It must be a white guy or something. Usually Hispanic and black people just get shot more than 5 or 10 times first before trying to arrest. It’s safer that way.
