Every day, I have to walk through clouds of meth, crack, and Fentanyl smoke in Northwest Portland, Oregon.

I literally feel like puking and I can still taste that nasty shit in my throat.

The police have been called.

#Seattle. Here's an example of City of Seattle dysfunction.

Volunteer at a non-profit found a hand-gun on property. Within an hour called the non-emergency number 206-625-5011 (a part of the 911 call center) to have Seattle Police come get the gun. That was shortly before midnight. 2:15 AM came around and the volunteer locked up the gun and left.

Volunteer called again next time on site. Again, SPD was no show after hours of waiting. In frustration, volunteer sent emails to two relevant City Council members about the gun and SPD's no arrival. No response from either council member.

Weeks later volunteer called a third time when back on site. Hours passed and volunteer went home. 12 hours later -- at 9:30 PM -- the 911 call center called volunteer to see if volunteer wanted to keep the request active. No assurance that SPD would show up.

Frustrated volunteer sent a letter -- with tracking -- to the Mayor. Initial response from the Mayor's office was to call 206-625-5011 -- disregarding the report that calling that number does not work. Follow up communication with personnel in the Mayor's office coordinated a response that by-passed the 911 call center. Officers showed up and took away the gun.

Seattle's call center -- emergency and non-emergency -- is not a part of Seattle Police. The call center is run by a department called CARE -- Community Assisted Response and Engagement.

When is Washington State going to begin to use Vehicle Passenger Detection Systems (VPDS) to crack down on HOV Violators. There are more violators than actual legit 2+ HOV users. If you don’t enforce laws, we see it @WSPHSD @wspd2pio @wspd8pio @wspd3pio @WAStateGov

LEAD or Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion has been used in Seattle for years to help 'divert' drug addicts who commit non violent crimes into programs meant to help them. Activists have claimed the success rate was near 60%, and in turn the program has been replicated all over the country...

Except the actual data says the success rate is "probably 0%".

Fox 13's Hana Kim interviews Eric Zimmerman from the Washington Policy Center about what went wrong, and how it hurts both the addicts and society.

Bonus, there is now a nationwide call for audits to find out how effective (or harmful) it really is.

@choeshow @SeattleCouncil @MayorofSeattle this is not an appropriate use of tax payer money. Drug addicts are not your priority constituent. Hard working tax payers who want to enjoy the city without the open air drug use, violent mentally ill, criminal, garbage ridden streets.

@choeshow Where is the moral fortitude to do what is obviously necessary: change the laws regarding involuntary commitment. There are unhinged people (drug addicted & mental ill) in our communities who are absolutely a danger to themselves & others, but Seattle & KC do nothing.

[Savage Citizens @savagecitizens]

The severely addicted and the severely mentally ill living in city funded buildings downtown and a waterfront full of tourists from around the region and the world is a terrible combination.
