Seattle Creepos

Two thugs beat a 77 year old in an unprovoked attack in Seattle. Broke his arm and his knee and put him in the hospital for a week with multiple facial injuries. 

A 29-year-old Seattle man with a criminal history is facing a felony assault charge after a “senseless” attack on a 77-year-old man in the heart of downtown. The incident happened just before midnight on April 19 near 3rd Avenue and Pike Street.

Prosecutors say the victim had just stepped off a bus and was minding his own business when defendant Ahmed Abdullah Osman and another person suddenly struck him in the head, knocking him to the ground. According to the probable cause certification, the victim told investigators he was “both punched and kicked several times” before losing his bearings. He said he wasn’t even paying attention to his attackers before the assault began.

The Democratic Socialist mayor, Katie Wilson, thinks that the closed circuit camera system that captured the crime should be abolished because it makes certain immigrant groups uncomfortable. She ran on a platform to do away with the surveillance.

CAIR, the local islamic rights group, concurs:

Wilson has amplified concerns from local activist groups that CCTV cameras will pose a threat to illegal immigrant communities.

"We are deeply concerned that the expansion of these tools will create an infrastructure where federal agencies can more readily target vulnerable communities, including immigrants and refugees," the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project, the Council on American-Islamic Relations of Washington and the Church Council of Greater Seattle said in a letter last year.

I don't want to sound uncaring or cavalier but my sympathies are with the old guy who was beaten up here, not illegal Somali alien Ahmed and his pal, Jes'shon.

I want to acknowledge that this is a controversial issue," Wilson added. "For some people, seeing CCTV cameras in the neighborhood where they live or work or attend school makes them feel safer. For others, those same cameras make them feel less safe."

"Those feelings are important, because our quality of life is partly about our feelings of safety or lack thereof, and our sense that our city is a welcoming place that is designed with consideration for our well-being and our humanity."

Wilson continued, "But precisely because different people and different communities experience the cameras differently, it’s important to base a decision on more than feelings. It’s important to ground our actions in a thorough understanding of how the cameras are being used, of the public benefits they are providing, and of any harm they are causing or could cause."

I'm sorry but this is the sort of ultra liberal crap that drives people in tho conservative ranks in droves. By the way perp #1 Osman is now on the run and "currently wanted on a $200,000 warrant" and officers are actively searching for him. Guy is a total loser.

This wasn’t Osman’s first brush with the law. Court records show prior misdemeanor convictions for harassment (2023), assault in the fourth degree (2022), attempted criminal trespass (2022), and criminal trespass (2021). He also has two additional cases pending from 2026.

Then there was this:

Last month, Fox News Digital reported on city advocates who say they are struggling to find solutions as homelessness and open-air drug use spread across Seattle’s streets, amid growing concerns about the direction of Wilson’s new administration.

“You can just see the foil is like blowing down the sidewalks like autumn leaves,” Andrea Suarez, founder and executive director of We Heart Seattle, told Fox News Digital in an interview.

“Very common to see property damage of our parks and shared spaces. You can see Narcan is used to reverse an overdose, so you’ll see cartridges. But at least we’re remodeling the bathroom to be gender-neutral. I’m not [kidding] you, that’s where our priorities are.”

Pretty sad indeed. This kind of attitude is why I gave up my Democratic registration and became an independent. I don't want to hear about Ahmed's lousy childhood or bad upbringing or his hurt feelings. He beat up an innocent old man. Throw him in jail, throw away the key and keep the cameras.
