The police want to, but are stifled and reduced to being nothing more than ticket issuers. And yes, alot of those people need to start taking care of themselves and thier families and stop expecting someone else to take care of them. This country is already sinking because of our nanny-state mentality. "Liberalism" is a sickness that is slowly engulfing America. Or maybe better yet, the "Progressive" mentality is the sickness sinking our country. Either way, we need to get our country back....................

Sad part is most of those employee's will probably be foreign workers.

Is this really the best and biggest news that KOMO could come up with???? Yes, I forgot, Seattle is the center of the universe..............waste of news.......

Wont be too much longer and there will be no pensions left. All that money will be absorbed into the company and given out as bonuses for the upper echelon. All these little tid-bits of information are all around us to observe, but no one wants to see the truth till its too late.........Good Luck.............

Then go after big oil. Funny how no one looks at the amount of taxes we pay for fuel.....

So where are the "Liberals" condemming knives and machete's??? Where is thier cry that new laws need to be made to forbid knives and machete's?? Again people, its the sickness of the mind that is doing these terrible things. And for all of you that want to legalize pot or all the other drugs, here is a fine example of what happens. It was all about money and drugs.

A sense of non-caring about life, others and thier own, no responsibilty. It seems to be getting worse all the time. No one wants to be held accountable for anything. Just by looking at his picture, you can see a sick and troubled mentality. But he needs to be held accountable for his actions.

Its not the gun, its the people using them. The example i give is the 19 yr old guy in Pacific that killed the 13 yr old boy. He didnt use a gun. The point is Ken, its the mentality of the people doing the killing. That is what needs to be changed. That 19 yr old guy killed that 13 yr old boy plain and simple. It was his mental sickness that killed that boy. And its the kind of sickness that is spreading all over this state and this country. Ken, that sickness is what needs to change, not the gun laws. Our society has allowed this mentality to fester and grow all over America. They dont have a sense of reality, or a sense of responsibilty anymore. So Ken, if you want to change anything, change the sickness in people......

The drug lords down south have recruited and send thier advisors up north to better organize thier gangs. Time to stop it. Drugs and killings seem to always be entwined. Let the cops do thier job.

Claims the majority of us dont want guns. Its another "Liberal" that wants to control the rights and freedoms of hiws fellow countrymen. If Seattlebcc doesnt like guns, I can respect that. But for him and his "Liberal" agenda friends that want to force the rest of us to give up our 2nd ammendment rights is wrong. Its the idiots pulling the trigger thats the problem. And Seattlebcc, if you notice, its the criminals that seem to be using the guns. Its not your everyday legal gun owner thats killing people. So why should responsible, legally registured gun owner be denied thier rights??? Explain that to me. If you dont like guns, dont buy them, dont own them, its very simple. Hold these criminals responsible for thier actions. And leave the legal, law abiding citizens alone....

Who or where is the cause?? Maybe all of you can answer that for me. Im really curious about where it all comes from.........

Doesnt this bother you???

When will people get that thru thier heads??? Toughen up on the criminals, the gangs and drug addicts. But no, its all about the guns. If they couldnt get guns, do you think crime would really go down?? Hell no it wouldnt. They would find other means, or as they say, they would be the only ones that had guns. When will you people wake up????

Yes its alot of desperate people out there. But the "Liberals" dont want to face the truth. Im sure this crime has alot to do with drugs or gang activity. But the "Liberals" want us to be afraid that its the guns. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!! Tue, 29 May 2012 00:08:39 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/2-found-dead-in-Puyallup-home-155113685.html?clmob=y#IDComment369170208 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/2-people-found-dead-in-Shelton-155048065.html?clmob=y#IDComment369166847 Again the "Liberal" mindset at work. Instead of really going after the meth heads, drug addicts, gangs and criminals, our government would rather coddle these low lifes because to go after them would be profiling. Are you people done putting up with the "Liberal" agenda??? Its not the guns that kill people, its the idiots pulling the trigger. When will the "Liberals" get it through thier heads. But they want you to belive its all about the guns. When its really about the "Liberal" agenda..........WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

Our tax dollars mean nothing to them. They are like heroin junkies loooking for thier next fix. They have no respect for us the tax payers and how hard we work to give them that money. Its all about them and thier greed and inability to manage our tax dollars......

They are trying to get a handle on crime. But our politicians seem to always stand in thier way. But our government would rather coddle criminals than punish them.
