I can't say for sure there wasn't cell service but I know further down, below Ripplebrook Ranger Station, where I was involved in an accident, there was no service. That being said, it doesn't hurt to try! The terrain is very mountainous and you're in a canyon. thoughts and prayers to the family!

Thoughts and prayers to the other driver who now has to live with guilt/fact that someone died while they were behind the wheel, even though at this point, doesn't seem like it's their fault. Wishing this other driver a speedy recovery and well wishes moving forward and dealing a possible stressful situation.

It doesn't matter if a car is going 1mph or 60mph. Both have the potential to kill. I think the bicyclists should only be allowed on roads where they can do the posted speed limit and sit in traffic like the rest of us, along with obeying all traffic laws if that's where they choose to ride.

Lets try and make downtown that much more less attractive! Now if I only owned a parking lot or garage!! And whats the difference if there's turnover or not? The city is still getting "their" money aren't they?

You know like everything else it will trickle down! It has with everything else. It's just a way to get there foot into the door to tax us later!

If "everyone is evaluated at all times," why is this squad still basically the same? OH YAH...and congrats to Morrow on 8 2/3 no hitter last night!

But I have to ask 1 question, haha, how in the hell is Seattle going to get a clothing optional beach w/ all the up tights that are against Bikini Baristas??

I would venture to say, those that are "rich" spend money on taxable items and pay their "fair" share. If you want income tax, move to another state and and have 30% taken out of your paycheck, off the top. At least in Washington, you have a choice on whether or not to pay addt'l tax with what you buy!(at least so far) Wed, 21 Apr 2010 14:05:35 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91658224.html#IDComment69301428 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/90420534.html#IDComment66921878 Thank you Chris! As if pop, candy, beer, etc wasn't expensive enough already. Please raise it more, it'll give me a bigger reason to cut the "junk food" out of my diet completely!

You don't think the police have raised their level of awareness? Of course they do and they have every right! People need to start listening to police and do what they're asked to do, then they wouldn't have to use force!

Time to thin the herd! He put more than the officers and himself in danger! He put the innocent, law abiding, citizens at danger by running and creating a chase! We could talk "what ifs" all day! What if he would have just stopped, listened, and cooperated? I support law enforcement, especially with whats happened over the last 2/3 months!

I guess there is a chance that they came around the corner and hit a snow drift and thought they could make it through. But depending on which side of the hill they were on, if the snow begins to look deeper and deeper, TURN AROUND or back out of it! Take the long way around. It's an unmaintained Forest Service Road.

People need to mind their own business and if you don't like it, don't support it or buy it! Plain and simple! Look at all the free publicity these places are getting!! Kudos to the coffee stand owners and workers!

That being said, IF he would have OBEYED police orders and not ran, this wouldn't have happened. He for whatever reason decided to run and make himself look "suspicious." Anyone I see running from cops is running for a reason. I've never had issues identifying a police officer,(badge, gun, uniform, maybe lights and sirens?) so I can't go with he didn't know who was chasing him. It's unfortunate that the shove made him land the way he did. Plain and simple, listen to the cops. If they say stop, do yourself a favor and stop. If they say put the gun down,........ If you have nothing to hide they will let you go or take you into custody and you will be let free! Again, my sympathies and best wishes to the Harris family!

What an embarassment of our judicial system. One of our "fearless" leaders needs to stand up and see to it that something is changed. What a bunch of BS!
