EXACTLY! It was just accepted.. Then when they decided to put the light rail in down there it was suddenly a big deal. I think they are now being forced to deal with a problem they created and even facilitated to some extent.

It's been this way there since the 80's. I was raised in the Rainier Beach area and remember it well. In fact, I'll never forget it. It's just getting attention now because well to do white people looking for less expensive housing are starting to move in and are amazed at what they find. The problem is a lot deeper than just income, I'll tell you that much. The city leaders and police force have been ignoring it for decades. I remember one time we called the police to report a woman screaming at the top of her lungs, "Help, he's going to kill me.. help.. help!" The call was placed around 11pm and we went back to sleep figuring they'd handled it. The 911 operator called back at 4am to ask us if the lady was still screaming because they were finally preparing to dispatch a patrol unit. Go figure.

Why does the article completely leave out the reason for the acquittal? Seems a little biased, like we are supposed to believe this guy just "got away with it." Obviously the jury thought there was plenty of reasonable doubt... so what was it?!?!

I should also point out that the section was eliminated the next year, but was definitely there in 1992 (my first year there).

Nope, I mean 1992. Granted, it was only "allowed" for those seniors who were 18 already, but that's not the point.

I think she should file a lawsuit against the sun. Oh and Scott Sistek, for not predicting this. No, but seriously, how about both the mom and the school district wise up? When i entered High School in 1992, we had smoking sections. Now kids can't even apply sunscreen without a note? Are we turning into the nanny state here or what?

KOMO - Seattle, WA : Local doctors accused of illegally prescribing HGH | Local & Regional | Seattle News, Weather, Sport

Fri, 20 Apr 2012 18:45:27 +0000

Doctors, and the regulatory boards that back them, seem to hate anything that actually helps patients, as opposed to substances that are addictive and cause patients to return to them for life, which they seem to love (Oxy, Paxil, etc. just to name a couple). Unfortunate, but true.

Yes, he absolutely should. We already know he's a race baiting idiot with no class, willing to leech on to any big news story to stay in the headlines. I'm just surprised because I was not aware that WWE and John Cena were following the "lowest common denominator" media relations handbook.

The real question is: Who cares what this guy thinks about the story at hand?!?!?! I find it disgusting that WWE would even issue a media release about this, obviously in some sick attempt to gain press from a horrible tragedy - which is what it is, regardless of which side you support. Next are they going to run stories about what porn stars think of hoodies?!?!?!

Not to mention, once kids (and adults) get hooked on Oxy, they realize it costs about $1 per milligram, compared to $0.10 per milligram for heroin. This is the driving force behind the new surge in youth heroin addiction - the cheap cost.
