A Seattle, Wash., councilman implied that a new effort to clean excrement off the side walk outside the local courthouse could be racist Tuesday.

The crime and smell of urine and excrement have gotten so bad outside a King County courthouse that two judges are scrambling to find ways to fix the situation, reports the Seattle Times.

Seattle councilmember Larry Gossett isn’t a fan of one solution to power wash the feces sidewalks to tamp down on the smell. Power washing the sidewalks is too reminiscent of civil rights activists being hosed down, he said.

Hmmm, I guess hosing the people themselves as they are relieving themselves is a no go also then?

[Free Vulcan]

No race was attached to the complaint, the councilman is the one making it a racial issue. If cleaning poop is racist, then you're making a pretty low statement about the members of that race.

[edpc]

He had better hope his house never catches fire.  Putting it out may be insensitive.

[Millee]

If I lived there, I wouldn't pick up after my dog then either.  Eff 'em. 

[truth_seeker]

Councilman in question. Be like '...at least the island isn't going to tip over.'

[LMAO]

 Seattle has bigger problems than feces on sidewalks

Seattle is on the path to becoming Detroit

[ConstitutionRose]

Clearly one should avoid Seattle at all costs.  If you have to change planes there, stay in the airport.

I really am having a hard time thinking of any race which routinely walks in its own feces. I don't see how cleaning that up would offend anyone. All I can do is assume the councilman is a coprophile who would impose his tastes on everyone else.

Yeah we really have some winners!  Its out of control liberal freaks!  Guess they would rather walk through urine and feces.  I love Washington and Seattle but a bunch of losers with agenda's are running the place.  We also have rainbow crosswalks so the homosexuals can feel celebrated for their sexual choice.  Mostly Seattle and the outlying area's are hopelessly liberal.  Other parts of the state not so much.  But it always goes Democratic.

*shudder*

Go east, young lady, and don't stop til at least CdA... You could come just a touch further over here... There's sweet tea in the fridge any ol time...

Or head north and don't stop till you hit AK...

Ain't no sense in a gal like you being in a place like that.

[GtHawk]

Damned if I wouldn't put up signs directing the homeless to use the sidewalk outside the councilman's home, hell I'd even put toilet paper dispensers up as a .............public service.

Washington is still a beautiful place, but Seattle itself has gone down hill fast due to Liberals running the place. Homeless encampments everywhere being the worse of it.  When we have guest flying in from other states, we avoid taking them downtown.Seattle is not the gem it once was.

This can't be real.  It has to be a joke, right?

I think you know it's not.  I mean, any time I see someone washing their car, pressure washing their home or driveway, it always makes me think of those poor, waterlogged negroes of olde that the man tried to excise the demons out of with fire hoses.

Seriously, equating washing crap off a sidewalk with blacks from the civil rights movement being fire hosed is beyond ridiculous.

Even with all of the absurd stuff that's in the news on a daily basis, for some reason this is just...I don't know, it makes me want to lay my head on my desk in utter resignation.

Picture it...a hose washing off the sidewalk, and some fool starts crying and falling to the ground, traumatized by the memory of the civil rights era.

Geez....

I hear ya, lady.  We are definitely living in BizzaroWorld.

And the really sad thing is that many predicted back in the late 1980's that if we gave into the morons and their fetishes, things like this would happen.

Hey,  John Wiley Price says Blackholes is racist!

Good ol' JWP. Always spouting off some really highly thought out crap to take the spotlight off how really stupid and corrupt he really is.

[Sanguine]

If you read Gossett's bio it begins to make sense.

Have they sent him to Federal "Pound Me in the Arse" Prison yet.  I knows the FBI arrested him for a bunch of stuff a few years back.

Anyone equating washing feces off the sidewalk with washing protesters away with a fire hose has drawn an odd metaphor for the protesters. Just sayin'

Well, either they can be thankful they fell on the clean part to have their snowflake fit, or they aren't going to smell so good.

And the sublime irony is.... Seattle is a liberal-run city.  You know...  the very same liberal types that proclaim that they alone care about 'the environment'.  The health issue alone should, in a sane, normal and common sense world (IOW, not in a liberal's world).... make law enforcement crack down on anyone using city streets as their personal toilet.
