When Gun Crime Has No Consequences, Everyone Pays the Price

The tragedy at the Bite of Seattle should force Seattle and Washington state to confront an uncomfortable question: What happens when young people repeatedly encounter a criminal justice system that is unwilling or unable to impose meaningful consequences for illegal gun possession?

On July 26, gunfire erupted at Seattle Center during the Bite of Seattle festival. Three people were killed and at least four others were wounded, including a two-year-old child. Police say the shooting involved multiple firearms and at least three shooters. A 15-year-old was arrested and charged with first-degree assault and unlawful possession of a firearm.

This was not simply a story about one teenager making one terrible decision. The circumstances raise much larger questions about how our justice system handles people who repeatedly demonstrate a willingness to possess illegal firearms and participate in violence.

Still No Arrest in the String of North Aurora Shootings

May 23, 2026 — Aurora Ave N & N 98th St.: Police reported more than 30 shots, found roughly 40 shell casings, and recovered video evidence. SPD said the Gun Violence Reduction Unit was investigating, but its public report does not announce an arrest.

June 23, 2026 — near N 93rd/Aurora: A 15-year-old boy was seriously wounded. SPD initially received conflicting accounts and later determined the shooting may have occurred inside a vehicle. The public SPD report says detectives were investigating; it does not report an arrest.

January 3, 2026 — N 128th St & Aurora: A woman was shot in the leg after gunfire near Aurora. SPD explicitly stated that no arrests had been made at the time of its report.

Early August 2026 — 14100 block of Aurora: SPD reported another shooting in which a person was shot in the leg. As of the August 4 report, detectives were still investigating, and the report does not identify an arrest.

A Run Around Green Lake Doesn't Make the Storm Controversy Go Away

There is nothing wrong with Seattle Storm players getting out into the community.

Running around Green Lake, meeting fans and promoting fitness is exactly the kind of positive community activity professional athletes should be doing.

But timing matters.

Just weeks after a Seattle Storm co-owner was accused of verbally berating two teenage girls at a home game, Storm players were back in the spotlight at Green Lake, participating in a community run that attracted hundreds of people.

It was a feel-good story.

And perhaps that is exactly what the Storm needed.

Because the team's image had taken a serious hit.

During the Storm's July 28 game against the Indiana Fever, two teenage fans were holding signs supporting Fever player Sophie Cunningham and her position on protecting women's sports. According to reporting on the incident, Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton confronted the girls and used profanity toward them. The Storm subsequently apologized, and the WNBA suspended Keaton from attending the team's next five home games and fined her.

One of the teenagers said the confrontation left her in tears.

Think about that for a moment.

Seattle’s Crime Problems Didn’t Start With the New Mayor

 There is a growing debate at Seattle City Hall over public safety, and residents have every right to demand answers. But before city leaders point fingers at Mayor Katie Wilson, we should take a step back and look at the timeline.

Seattle’s public-safety problems did not begin when Wilson took office in January 2026. Many of the problems now being discussed — particularly in North Seattle and along Aurora Avenue — existed under previous administrations and previous City Councils.

That matters when we talk about accountability.

District 5 is a particularly important example. Today, District 5 is represented by Councilmember Debora Juarez, who was appointed in July 2025 to fill the vacancy created by Cathy Moore’s resignation. Juarez’s term runs through November 2026, when voters will choose who completes the remainder of the term. Juarez previously served from 2015 to 2023. In Q1 of 2019 alone District 5 had the following 93 aggravated assaults, 336 simple assaults, 4 murders, 19 forcible rapes, and 151 burglaries. North Aurora's drug trade, sex trafficking and fencing of stolen Home depot goods were all unopposed and the standard during Juarez's tenor. 

ANOTHER PIMPOUT ON AURORA AVE

 According to Seattle police, multiple callers reported hearing a volley of more than 30 gunshots. Officers arrived minutes later and saw a crowd dispersing from a nearby club.  CLUB?

The only club is a strip joint that seems to be the showroom for the merchandise these pimps are fighting over. 

 

Investigators found shell casings on both sides of Aurora Avenue.

Police recovered about 20 shell casings on the west side of the roadway and another 20 on the east side. Officers also found a nearby vehicle and multiple buildings that had been struck by gunfire.

This is a repeat of the same type of incidents that happened last year and so far SPD has made ZERO arrest in those.

Why Oh Why Do WE Keep Giving School Districts More and More

 

SCHOOL DISTRICTS ‑- LEVIES FOR PAYMENT OF BONDS

       

AGO 1958 No. 230 - Nov 26 1958

Attorney General John J. O'Connell

SCHOOL DISTRICTS ‑- LEVIES FOR PAYMENT OF BONDS.

(1) A school district may not levy an excess tax levy in an amount greater than is required for payment of principal and interest due on school district bonds in the particular year for which the levy is made.

(2) A school district may not increase the excess tax levy in order to exercise an option to redeem bonds prior to the fixed date of maturity.

(3) A surplus in the bond redemption fund should be used to retire bonds which are subject to redemption.  If not so used, it must be considered in determining the amount of excess tax levy when the next budget is prepared.

(4) The board of county commissioners does not have authority to fix the excess tax levy for the bond redemption fund at a different amount than the amount certified by appropriate authorities.

Is It Time To Come Clean On Gender Dysphoria?

 U.S., federal law prohibits anyone who has been involuntarily committed to a mental institution or adjudicated as a "mental defective" from possessing firearms, regardless of their gender identity. 

You can be denied a gun for reasons beyond being institutionalized, as both federal and state laws prohibit firearm possession for individuals with certain mental health adjudications, involuntary commitment to a mental institution, or a determination by a lawful authority that they are a danger to themselves or others due to a mental illness. 

Gender dysphoria is a mental health condition marked by intense distress or unease because of a discrepancy between a person's gender identity (their internal sense of being male, female, both, or neither) and the sex they were assigned at birth 

 

Robin Robert Westman, 23, “sprayed” dozens of rounds of bullets through the stained glass windows of Annunciation Catholic Church on Wednesday, where children from the adjacent school were attending a start of term Mass. 

His parents helped him change his name when he was still a minor. What did they know and when did they know it.

"I was at an FBI briefing just 6 months ago where “Nihilistic Accelerationism” was a hot topic as an emerging threat. That meant groups like The Com, 764, O9A… Not sure what happened to that priority but they were very much surveilled at the time. We failed w/ Robin Westman." 

The Zizians are an informal group of rationalists allegedly involved in six violent deaths in the United States—three in 2022 and three in 2025.^[1][2][3] Federal prosecutors say the Zizians are associated with persons of interest in the murders of four people: David Maland in Vermont (a U.S. Border Patrol agent), Curtis Lind in California (a landlord), and Richard and Rita Zajko in Pennsylvania (the parents of one of the group members).^[4] In addition, Ophelia Bauckholt (a German citizen) and Emma Borhanian, both associates of the Zizians, were killed during altercations with Maland and Lind.^[5] 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zizians 

The "Zizians" are a cult-like group that has been linked to multiple murders and other violent crimes in the U.S. in recent years

. The group is primarily composed of tech-savvy young people who identify as transgender and follow a radical form of the Rationalist movement. The term "Zizians" is derived from their leader, Jack "Ziz" LaSota, who uses female pronouns

 

Who will protect children from the trans?
