    This used to be his home until @SeattlePD trashed it. I've been following this story and been disappointed in @SeattleCouncil. This is how we treat people in 2017.https://twitter.com/daedaejr/status/938193621643227137 …

    Charlie helped build this place. He believes this was more than a sweep, this was a statement. Charlie called this place home but now it's gone forever. #Seattle #StopTheSweeps pic.twitter.com/a6GV2Okq8O

        Denying them any dignity, really. These so often seem like such mean-spirited times 😕

        it was beyond frustrating having Durkan heralded as part of some (D) wave of success Tue Nov.7th. Sure her identity politics look nice nationally, but those that live here knew our money would continue to be used on these sweeps. Our professional police could do much gr8r work

        Wait, this kid is homeless and this is how he's treated? Unconscionable. I want to know how to help.

        This is deplorable. I'm becoming consistently enraged by how the city of Seattle, and the state of Washington, treat their citizens.

        That is a statement. There is no other reason for that kind of behavior.

        Thought experiment: this happens to the bedding and couches of each cop who was on the sweep team. Question: how many weeks of headline news would that be? How many years in prison for the perpetrators? Yeah, the standards are many.

        Unless one has lived in Seattle for at *least* the last 20 years one will never know or understand each and every side of the very long and complex story of the city and her people.
