    Big issues are the Democrats in power in WA. That's why i moved to Ohio.

    The economy has never been better, Give the homeless bus tickets to NYC and have them claim they are migrants (They actully are) Really everyone who wants a job can have one. Problem solved.

    Great video Haydn - what anti gov't extremist group? Never heard of any such group in the cop shops? Is it conservatives or libertarians, Christians, the Amish? I'm for keeping the cop shops, just revamp it. I do not like Lisa Brown's policies and her approach to our city and the budget. Like using tax payer funds to paint a giant sex cult flag downtown. That was so rude to think all the people of Spokane would love it. If she was going to allocate funds to painting something it should have been the city flower - Lilacs! We need better leadership.

      I can't remember exactly, it was in the Spokesman article. I don't like sharing names of specific groups that have an extreme following or extreme distain. Not worth bringing it up.

    The homeless problem is caused by the extremely high cost of living and lack of affordable housing. Pile on stigmatism and xenophobia (demonstrated in BabyBoomerJanet's comment) and it makes it very difficult to break out of the problem. Instead of having social programs that are well funded to combat the problem, public money is given to the police to fix it, which just effectively criminalizes being poor. The police want the money so they lean into it being a criminal issue instead of being the social issue that it is. The resident's of Spokane, having moved the indigenous people off of the land where the city now sits can look down their noses to all who they believe don't belong and say things like "Bus them to NYC" rather than helping their neighbors. Meanwhile the rich corporate landlords get richer by raising rent again and again while blaming immigrants on their socials, so that all their followers can repeat the same bigoted garbage rather than blame the true culprits.

      @@4g63t8 Not sure what you mean by saying that one word, but yes that's another example of a SOCIAL problem instead of a CRIMINAL problem. Spokane police hold up the city for more and more money to combat a problem that they have no idea how to fix. All they end up doing is arresting people for addiction (a medical problem) over and over and the issue never ends up getting better because to a hammer everything is a nail. Addiction is a problem across all of Eastern Washington and Idaho. Meth and Fentanyl are everywhere whether it's a area dominated by one party or the other that makes no difference.
