Come across a neighbor, our neighbor, some less unfortunate neighbor just hanging under the tree here doing the thing, you know what I'm saying? Hit the the good fatty, you know.
Yeah, man.
I have empathy for these guys, man.
These guy they need a help, man, but where where they going to go?
It's a trail down, going down. So, there's a bunch of tent in there.
All these addict homeless they go in there, you know, they you know, do their thing, handle their business, you know.
Piss, poop, whatever in in the uh in this little jungle of Cambodia, yeah.
Yeah, I'mma show you right here. Used to be like a what you call a canopy, yeah.
Yep, so the city instead of get it getting these guy help, you know, get them in treatment, put them in jail, the city just tearing [ __ ] down, destroying whatever so they can't come out here and do their thing.
We got a poor guy sleeping next to the uh concrete block over there, man. Let me show you okay.
Poor guy got a little fishing pole, man.
God bless you, brother.
Yeah, he's got to check up on him, see he ain't OD.
Okay, he's breathing.
But, yeah, folks, we got thousands and thousands of addict living in the jungle right here.
I'm coming down on Dr. Brazil Park, kind of like do my view, know what's really going on in this neighborhood. Nothing has changed, folks. All they doing is just sweeping whatever they can, the addict from downtown, Third and Pike, Belltown, Pike Market down to CID, Chinatown District, Little Saigon.
You know, Little Saigon and and Chinatown is part of our downtown area, but, you know, this white politician they they they really don't care for the Asian, you know. Matter of fact, they want They want to get rid of Chinatown. That Chinatown be a historic location. They can't, you know.
But, they really want the property where the Saigon stood at. It's prime property for high-rise, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
The whole CID is all trash. Every corner of folks, every corner.
Every corner.
But, you know, businesses are open-air drug deals.
You know, fencing, boosting.
Cops not doing anything. They can't do nothing they want to.
But, the guy on top telling them they can't do nothing to that. So, this guy just So, they're pushing all these drug addicts into your neighborhood.
They uh different view downtown. So, back to Bruce Harrell, you know, he when he was the uh mayor and I did some research on him. I was really upset. So, back give you a little breakdown why Bruce Harrell didn't uh win his second term as mayor.
Uh reason being is all on me because back in 1996 in Iowa, Mr. Bruce Harrell, I think he was in college, young Korean negro. So, he went to a casino at 1:30 in the morning somewhere in Iowa, middle of nowhere, cornfield, went to casino.
And he pulled up to park his vehicle.
And then he got into an altercation with this pregnant illegal Mexicano with her current, I think, boyfriend or husband over a park spot. And then Mr. Bruce Harrell pulled out a a pistol.
Yep.
Brandish it.
Uh and scared those two Mexican.
Then they took off.
Later on, he got arrested. They arrested him, booked him in jail.
Uh They ran the serial number on the on the the pistol and it and it was it was not registered to him, so he was charged with uh illegal possession of uh firearm and uh I don't know, assault or threatening.
So, yeah, he did some time in jail.
And a lot of people in Seattle they know they had no clue. They didn't know about that. So, that right there you know how it goes uh uh he got the the the Republican No, the Democrat all they're all criminal, you know? They're criminal, man, so we can't have a that kind of represent the city, but at least he he he tried to to to clean the city up.
Now, with this new Katie Wilson, this puppet Prince Katie she just another puppet, I think, for the CPP, yeah.
But anyway, yeah, she's another clown.
Prince Katie, she ain't do nothing.
Uh all the promise Let me back to Mr. Bob Ferguson.
Oops, sorry, man. Yeah.
Yeah, you know the voice of two evil this new Prince Katie Wilson, she's another puppet installed to destroy the city.
Now, with her and the late Mr. Japanese Negro, Bruce Harrell, I've been a little harsh on him.
I met the guy, interviewed him a couple time, asked him, "Hey, man, how you feel about the addict homeless? Do they welcome to the waterfront?"
They He called, "Yeah, they're all welcome. They They creatures like us."
So, right there I respect him, but you got more our neighbor our addict neighbor just hanging on stairway, hitting that hitting that dope, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. And these guys really need help, man. They really need help. They don't need shelter, they need to be locked up in jail. Rehabilitation, go to treatment, you know what I'm saying? The city said it's too soft on crime, folks.
Yeah, so ain't nothing going to change.
