Black Market

Unable to Intervene San Francisco: A Shoplifting Paradise for the homeless. I visited San Francisco to document the homelessness crisis and witnessed some of the most blatant shoplifting I’ve ever seen. Every store I entered, someone was actively stealing while security guards stood by, often appearing unable or unwilling to intervene. Shoplifters Openly Admit to Theft I interviewed several shoplifters afterward. Nearly all admitted they steal because they believe nobody will stop them. Only two said they planned to eat the food they took. Most intended to resell the merchandise. Hands Tied California treats theft under $950 as a misdemeanor, and many offenders clearly see that as a green light. Store employees and security guards repeatedly told me their hands Read More ›

Under Siege Bellevue is under siege. A steady flow of criminals from outside the city are targeting local stores. In many instances homeless drug addicts get around using the bus, ransack businesses, then sell the items for pennies on the dollar in Seattle to purchase fentanyl. This has been going on for years. But community watch members now say it’s getting worse. Here is one of several incidents Monday evening at the QFC grocery store in the Crossroads neighborhood. Good Samaritans stepped in and forced an alleged crook to return stolen items. After being confronted, this Black woman kept saying, “I’m a n*gger. I’m a n*igger.” Some may call this vigilante justice. But there is limited security and not enough Read More ›

Taking Matters into Their Own Hands Bellevue resident Quintin Chi and concerned neighbors have started a community watch at local grocery stores in the city. They say places like Walgreens, Fred Meyer, and QFC supermarkets are being ransacked every night by homeless drug addicts. Chi says the crooks then board a bus to Seattle and sell the stolen items at the notorious 12th Ave & Jackson St. drug den in Chinatown-ID. While store workers commend these good samaritans, Chi says he’s frustrated because Bellevue PD calls them vigilantes and recently advised them not to get involved in criminal apprehensions.

Enabling Addiction While Seattle cops search for the hookah lounge murder suspect in Chinatown-ID, look what’s happening just a couple blocks away from the crime scene. Another 12th Ave & Jackson St. horror show. Aside from the open-air drug use and black market of stolen goods thriving next to a charter school, there’s a lady driving around giving away free government phones. In other words, the homeless industrial complex, harm reduction lobby, and other NGO’s provide all the crap you need to remain trapped in this cycle on the streets. The CID is truly the city’s human dumping ground. Join Us As you prepare for end of the year gifts, please consider joining our team and helping us expand our Read More ›

“We Call Every Week, But They Just Keep Ignoring” Christmas shopping is underway in downtown Seattle. But if you are looking for a good deal on stolen items, head to Chinatown-ID. Late Saturday evening, 12th Ave & Jackson St remains a total train wreck. Drug addicts are passed out in vestibules, the mentally ill are flailing in the streets, and cops are driving by without enforcing the law. The vast majority of the people admit they are not homeless. They are here to score drugs. Outgoing Mayor Bruce Harrell has failed this Asian American community after pushing “Housing First” and “harm reduction” policies that are not working. He allowed this neighborhood to turn into a containment zone and human dumping Read More ›

Conditions Worse Than Ever Seattle media outlets are scared to send in reporters to spotlight ongoing crime and chaos plaguing the Little Saigon neighborhood. I don’t blame them, it’s a major safety risk. So I had to call independent journalist Nick Shirley for another perspective. Shirley agrees the conditions on the ground are now worse than ever. He noted cops rarely stop in this hood or come out of their cars to patrol the streets. It seems like Mayor Bruce Harrell has thrown in the towel on this community even though the November General Election is only two months away. But mayoral candidate Katie Wilson hasn’t shown up either, failing to seize on an opportunity to get Asian American votes. Read More ›

Human Dumping Ground Seattle’s Little Saigon neighborhood has been a human dumping ground for homeless drug addicts and is now the epicenter for the black market of stolen goods. But Saturday afternoon, we saw the potential of this Asian American community when it’s actually cleaned up. Of course this was in preparation for Mayor Bruce Harrell’s visit to the street festival. I asked Harrell how he plans to keep this neighborhood safe and clean. Right after my interview with the Mayor, some unhinged drug addicts attacked me for recording. Just another routine day in the hood.

Happening Now Friday night, Seattle’s Little Saigon neighborhood is zombie land with fentanyl addicts knocked out in wheelchairs and unconscious on the sidewalk. The black market of stolen goods is thriving. Instead of breaking up this crime scene, two SPD officers simply drove by and never left their cruisers to enforce the law. Today’s Seattle Times op-ed on the failures of “harm reduction” was reposted by Council President Sara Nelson. But still no relief in sight for this predominantly Asian American neighborhood. At the end of the day, this is on Mayor Bruce Harrell. But he remains MIA. Nothing has changed on his watch. It’s actually worse than ever. This is exactly why President Trump had to sign his executive Read More ›

Lawlessness Reigns It’s the worst kept secret in Seattle, but King County Metro buses are being used by criminals to transport stolen goods. The addicts tell me they like to ransack the downtown Target store, then bring the items back to 12th Ave and Jackson St. in Little Saigon. As I was conducting an interview, a dude got off the bus with a duffle bag and started flipping stolen sneakers, cologne, and promising to come back with even more items. The proceeds are then likely used to buy fentanyl or other illegal street drugs. Once again, no cops in sight. Mayor Bruce Harrell’s city remains a lawless playground.

New For the past few weeks, the entire news cycle has been dominated by protests and social unrest. But there are still major stories happening in Seattle that the politicians don’t want you to see. Over the weekend, I spent several hours in the usual downtown hot spots. Unfortunately for the residents of District 7, the black market of stolen goods and drugs dens are raging out of control on 3rd Ave & Pike St, especially in the late evening hours. McStabby’s on Pine St. remains a mess and dealers are selling drugs all over Belltown. Meanwhile, no sign of Mayor Bruce Harrell or Councilmember Bob Kettle. They should be out here in person, walking the streets to find better Read More ›
