Description:This past weekend 10/29-29 2006, ten people were sent to the hospital, three in very critical condition following a weekend of gunfire and violence in downtown Seattle! These stabbings and shooting didn't happen in Rainier Valley south of downtown (the Valley of Death) where most of the gunshot victims come from, these came FROM DOWNTOWN SEATTLE.
My advice: If you visit Seattle, come wearing a bulletproof or Kevlar vest! Drug gang violence is out of control in the city.
As for the so-called best places in this book, many of the street corners of these "best places" are OWNED by drug dealers who stand there in rain or shine selling meth or crack, while the police look on and do nothing because they say THEY DON'T HAVE PROBABLE CAUSE! Yeah, sure ya bet cha! It just turns out the drug lords are better armed than the police.
