Zero Cops, Zero Coverage

Saturday afternoon, I saw children walking through the Chinatown-ID drug den.

Drug addicts and criminals have conquered the sidewalks at the corner of 12th Ave & Jackson St.

Socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson is MIA. No cops.

Zero coverage from local media. Where is the outrage?
