I came across this is little story today, it's not breaking news. I suspect that a member of the housekeeping staff knows something about the bomb threat that required the sweep for weapons.
According to police in Secaucus, the bomb threat — which later was determined to be bogus — was called in to Hudson Regional Hospital on July 18. During a search, bomb detection dogs led investigators to an unlocked office closet containing dozens of firearms.
Among the weapons were 11 handguns and 27 rifles or shotguns, according to police. The closet also contained a .45 caliber semi-automatic rifle with a high-capacity magazine that was determined to be an assault rifle, and a 14-round high-capacity handgun magazine.
The arrested the guy the next day.
What the heck do you think this guy was doing? It sounds very ominous that he was keeping those weapons there.
Homelessness is more a factor of lack of housing than democratic policies. The average cost of a house in the Seattle area is >$440,000, almost double of the national average. This is capitalism, not a democratic policy.
And for what it's worth, I do look at articles posted, but when they are mainly opinion pieces without substantiated sources, I find them less credible.
The homeless problem is a lot more complicated than Capitalism.
I wasn't talking about you not reading the articles.

I don't think anyone here said Democratic policies have helped the poor. I don't have anything to defend. Ball's in your court and those web sites are just the opinions of non-thinkers. Since when do these people care about poor people, especially poor POC or women? They are just blaming people who don't agree with them and liberal bashing. The last person in Congress to know anything about poverty was Daniel Moynihan. I could be wrong but I sense that these authors live quite nicely in suburban enclaves.
sure, just bc you don't like the source (bc they are not the liberal MSM) doesn't mean they are wrong . So are you saying the Dems have not solved any problems? No, the ball is in your court.
I missed your citations because you've been on my ignore list for quite sometime. I de-activate the list from time to time to see if the conversation has improved. My mistake.
Improved how? You stay in your echo chamber without hearing other opinions?

I think there should be a complete dissolution of political parties. It seems so easy to blame and point fingers and it does NO good at all but set folks up against each other. Blame, blame, blame. Doesn't really matter who think they are right or wrong; If we keep on going the way things have been turning, there will be no reasonable resolutions, nor any satisfying compromises. I think all the stonewalling going on today is against what the USA was planned to be. And no, I don't want to cite any sources, I'm just spouting off. I do not understand either how these political "discussions" accomplish anything at all. Who is convincing whom?
NO ONE.
Y'all are like a bunch of BB's shot into an empty boxcar, endlessly ricocheting around ....
I thought you said it was democrat policies hurting black communities. This article speaks about socialists on the Seattle City council, (who are most definitely not democrats), the opioid epidemic and mental illness. Yes, homelessness is complicated.
Isn't Rufo the one that created the fake outrage over CRT?
No not an expert on thug life culture. I haven't been arrested, haven't left my family, I don't sling rock, I haven't killed anyone, I support my family, graduated high school, better my community etc.

Really??? Democrat sanctuary city policies create housing shortages and cause prices to increase. Most of homelessness is caused by drug use and mental illness.

Knowledgable about thug life and homelessness! Your are a social science expert.
As you can see it was liberal/Democrat policies that hurt black slaves then and their bad policies continue to the present. And if you will notice some of these are a bit older and the situation has only deteriorated since.
OK, I have answered you twice now. Your turn, show us how the Democrats have really helped the black as well as other poor communities, not to mention the ones that we're not poor to begin with but have become poor bc of those bad Democrat policies.
Edited to add, yes yes I know these articles are not from the liberal MSM.
Nor are they from the conservative MSM. These aren't research studies to answer any particular questions but just rants; not a respectable consersative writer among them. I think of them as Jim Jordan level activism.

Some Dems are socialists all the others are marxists.

"In Houston, local leaders have reduced homelessness by 60 percent through a combination of providing services and enforcing a zero-tolerance policy for street camping, panhandling, trespassing, and property crimes. Seattle's police department and Navigation Teams must be given the authority to enforce the law and put an end to rampant street camping. There's nothing compassionate about letting addicts, the mentally ill, and the poor die in the streets. The first order of business must be to clean up public spaces, move people into shelters, and maintain public order."
Houston DID come up with housing and kudos to them. Do you think the price of property in Houston is anyway comprable to the price of property in San Diego? Houston has large swathes of poverty so I'm only thinking that there is less resistance from neighborhoods to having housing developed in their neighborhoods. San Diego? Fuggetabout it. BUT, if they had the will it could be done.

Okay. That's it. Back on the ignore list.
Thank God. Sick of having to educate you Dems constantly.
