Rubber bullets became forbidden because they were deemed "excessive force".  We certainly can't bruise the anarchists that are extorting local businesses and harassing residents of the area.

You left out the "by some measures" part.  Lots of jobs in Seattle.  Mostly good schools.  Not bad crime rates. But yeah, homelessness is a big negative across the west coast.  Funny how no one wants to discuss why that is, just blame it on Democrats!

And "excessive" depends on the situation.  If you're trying to stop a jaywalking kid, rubber bullets are a bad idea.  If you're trying to break a human barricade across a man street, they might not be excessive at all. 

The theme to both of these is you want to rush to judgement instead of noticing any subtlety to what I'm saying.

It's funny how liberal democrats like you don't point out the high taxes in the area.  Sure there are lots of jobs... well paying jobs.  However, much of those earnings are confiscated via the high taxes in the area.

Have you ever been there?  Recently?  The place is turning into a [BLEEP] hole much like your girl Nancy Pelosi's district in San Francisco.  [BLEEP] in the street or on the sidewalks?  No big deal.  Here's a fresh needle for your drugs.  Own property or earn a paycheck?  Pay the taxes.

As I said before, these anarchists (antifa) need to be taken down and locked up with whatever force is necessary.
