Thanks for....

for everything, Scott. The coverage, the pictures, the updates, it helps us all find our way through this horrific thing that our hearts and our sensibilities can hardly bear. I think about these officers and their families all day long, I take flowers to the memorial and the profound sense of grief and loss is like a low cloud cover. Somehow, reading all of the posts and all of the comments helps -- maybe it's being connected. Hopefully we can give some comfort to Officer Breton's family, to Officer Sweeney and her family and to all of their colleagues who are still out there day in and day out, doing what they do.

Where's Joe?

It was great to see city council people there tonight and Mike McGinn our possible future Mayor there as well. So where was Joe Mallahan, absent again!

You're using this event to trash talk political candidates?
On a personal note, SPD busted two guys going through my mailbox last month while I was asleep. I love these guys and just can't get my head around this. My thoughts and prayers go out to Officer Brenton's entire family, Officer Sweeney and family, and the entire police force. I hope the city of Seattle can get past the grief but remember the gratitude. |

I was at the memorial as well. I was not trash talking a candidate. My concern is the guidence and policy that will be generated from our next Mayor towards crime issues. This event was beyond horrible! Our police are true guardian angels and we lost one.
I was making an observation, I am concerned that a potential future Mayor did not have any semblance of feeling to even show up. I see this as an indication of this persons policy priorities for the next four years. Not "trash talking" but a clear and factual observation. |

Not here, please.

People really need these forums to process this tragedy. It's off topic to start trash talking political candidates and does nothing to further your cause. Thanks.

off topic, and yes, dis-integration from within
|
|

just an observation, I am noticing that these forums contain a lot of bickering, finger-pointing, and general malaise towards one another. Are we so torn up as a community, nation, world (not really a question) that we must seek to tear down and criticize each other for what someone else said or wrote in a forum about what someone actually did. Let's not waste energy finger-pointing at who's more politically correct when people (punk-asses) are out there murdering our police officers, ripping off our houses, and degrading our community. Action and responsibility.
Thank you for your reporting, Scott. We are all in this together and need to remember it when sh*t like this happens , so we can pull together and act unified, solidified, and with some reverence. I really appreciate what I hear when it provokes a voice of emotion through the angst and chaos of city life. Let's strive to overcome our pettiness and integrate our differences into a many layered mosaic of soul. blahblahblah. |
