New robberies linked to Magnolia case

September 11th, 2009 · 10 Comments

There were two more armed robberies overnight in Seattle and police believe they were likely committed by the same people who robbed four young Magnolia men on Wednesday morning.  The latest robberies were at Greenlake and Capital Hill.

That makes six armed robberies with suspects matching the same description in the past six days.  In all of the cases, police say three black men wearing sunglasses, baggy clothes and red bandanas use a gun to rob victims of  wallets, cell phones and more.  All of the robberies happened between 11 p.m. and 1 a.m.

Seattle Police are asking anyone with information about these robberies, whether it’s more detailed information about the suspects or their vehicles, to please call them or call 911.

    Can't we have someone packing a gun be the next one they try and rob? Then problem solved.

    Except the victim would then get in all sorts of trouble for shooting the poor thugs who just didn't know any better because they were somehow failed by society. Might even be accused of a hate crime if they defended themselves against an armed robber of color.

    How come even the television news refuses to state the color of the attackers? Kind of seems bogus that the news is playing PC when it comes to safety issues.

    We have three gates and that still doesn't detur…hmm..must have come across the locks, or the rails like the bears and cougar (not to mention the hot one I met at The Pub) Does your hubby know you do that?…

    By the way my newest single Lonely Is The Heart is doing quite well.

    Ah gates, yes.

    We can stop all the cars, trucks, buses, perhaps the trains too. Make sure everyone has their Magnolia passports.

    Perhaps we could raise the taxes in Magnolia a percentage point and get a dedicated police officer or two. Everyone says there are not enough cops on the beat, well lets pony up for some.

    Time to stage a decoy and have someone in the bushes to pick them off.

    Well, or I guess you could have the police do it and arrest them.
