A Seattle, Wash., community is responding to a violent crime wave by installing large makeshift barricades blocking criminals from driving through their neighborhood.
Residents of the Aurora Avenue neighborhood say they were left no choice following a spate of gunfire incidents where bullets have hit cars and homes, as crime and violence from the inner-city pours out into residential areas.
Photos show large metal planter boxes erected in the middle of the road blocking traffic from traveling through the neighborhood.
Previous barriers put up were apparently vandalized, prompting neighbors to fortify the latest barriers with stronger reinforcements, adding a message that states “No Gunfire,” according to Fox 13 Seattle.
Neighbors say out-of-control prostitution is a major reason for the violence.
“We have nightly prostitution, we have the gun violence that is coming along with it,” one resident told Fox 13, adding that “a revolving door of pimps and johns regularly circles the neighborhood.”
The frustrated residents say they’ve had to take matters into their own hands since city leaders including Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson have not responded to their pleas for help.
“What we’ve gotten is a lot of nothing,” another resident remarked to Fox 13. “It’s terrifying to live here, and it’s even more terrifying that the city is absolutely doing nothing to protect the citizens in this neighborhood.”
“We’re just afraid that a neighbor is going to have to die before the city will do something,” added another neighbor.
Yet another neighbor recounted how one bullet flew into his home, nearly striking his son.
“My wife and I have been shocked,” the resident related. “We could’ve lost our son. Thank God he’s alright.”
KOMO News points out the barriers come with safety concerns, considering they could block first responders from reaching emergencies.
Evidently, the barricades are not enough as another news report showed a Honda Element circumventing one of the barriers by driving around it.
Social media users mocked the residents, arguing the leftist policies they voted for had come home to roost.
You get what you VOTE for 🤷♀️

This is exactly what you begged for, you braindead libs. You defunded the police, rolled out the red carpet for dangerous illegal aliens, and elected radical leftist Katie Wilson like it was the smartest idea ever.

What if they did not vote for it but the republic failed and the elections where fixed ? This exactly what happened to Trump in 2020. I assume the elections were fixed in Seattle to vote in left wing policies. Give the evidence of Trump it is fairly certain.
This is how it is going to go the better run places with real democracy and good constitutional rights etc. They will move ahead tue rest will fall behind.
Exactly. I refuse to believe that every major city in the US is nothing but democrats or split “51/49” in favor of democrats in every election. Its all fraud.

Barricades you see in playing nightmare video games in a dystopian world.
You stupid ass liberals have ruined a huge swath of this country.
You fuckers bring your stupid shit to my state -you will need more than barricades…I promise.
Reminds me of all those big bad Texans…”That wont happen in Texas!”
While they sit back and watched millions of illegals pour over the border and march through their front yards lmao hilarious.
Listen to the guy, both, at your risk
AJ’s current guest is a Chinese communist propagandists who is supposedly telling us the story of the Iran War, Israel, globalism and and Trumpy Bear’s role in everything. What does it tell you when the algorithms promote him and his seemingly plausible analysis ? The guy is a professional communist government liar. And then his take on Christianity is about on the same level as preacher Alex, meaning completely lacking in knowledge and the Spirit.
And both popular apologists repeat the mantra that Trump was deceived by his closest advisors. Hmm ? That doesn’t seem to explain a lotta bad stuff, beginning back during his 1st term. Covid, anyone ?
