So, the public health officer and Board of Health say that International Overdose Awareness Day will "reduce the stigma of substance abuse disorder." Are you joking? Why should addicts who refuse to get clean and sober NOT be shamed by society? Their little poster says "Stronger community, better outcomes." What horse manure. The only part of the community getting stronger thanks to these addicts are those employed by the governmental, NGO, and tribal entities that exist to service the harm reduction grift.

Don't forget the strength of the drugs being used to destroy society!🤓

Nothing reduces stigma like leaving the planet!😆. Give them all the 'goodies' they want and skip the Narcan!🤓

It’s hard for people to grasp outside of Clallam County. Actually, most of us don’t understand giving supplies to drug additives to make their road an easier one. This program is so nonsensical that when others hear our Public Health Doctor say” you dont want our addicts getting Aids, do you?” Well let’s think about it. Don’t wish illness on anyone but you can only lead a horse to water. They have chosen a life style that may end in premature death. Sterile needles, and crack pipes are the answer? Hasn’t worked anywhere else, but the commissioners and Dr Berry refuse you to admit defeat.

Kristin's avatar

That is their biggest problem. They would rather accept the despair of others than admit defeat. Which is just sickening.

Great comment, Patriot Susan C. Bonallo~!

The REAL problem is that sour Berry and the bunch of rotten bananas NEVER believed that the "harm reduction" scam was really going to work to actually reduce harm! That was always a lie! Hence their evil twisting of words "harm reduction" that was very intentionally orchestrated to give the simple-minded sheep the opportunity to just assume that these criminals in government were acting in good faith ;-) Let us break this completely retarded, dangerous, and deadly "harm reduction" concept down to a simple comparison. If parents of a child who was "injecting drugs" into themselves went out to buy needles and these so-called "boofing kits" to give to their child, who was very clearly endangering themselves, would/could that EVER be honestly considered an attempt to "reduce harming" that child? Nope, that would actually be approving, supporting, and in fact enabling their child to harm themselves. If that same child subsequently died in a drug overdose event, especially after the parents supported that child's deadly behavior, any decent parent would feel terribly guilty, would in fact be guilty, and of course be subject to severe criminal prosecution (and the removal of all other children that those "criminal" parents may have). I am NOT in any way suggesting that these evil criminals in government have anything remotely like "parental authority" over anyone except their own children, however ethically, morally, and in the eyes of LEGITIMATE common law, this example is absolutely rock solid as a comparison. What we are really seeing is the criminally corrupt government, giving itself "unlawful permission" to break long standing laws against criminal behavior~! If this does not prove that this is all in fact part of the criminals in government's old evil "population reduction" agenda, I would wonder what could possibly prove it~! Perhaps another mass murder genocidal atrocity, where millions of humans were slaughtered by these criminals of humanity? Like maybe faking a so-called "deadly virus" by claiming that a normal cold and flu season was "a deadly pandemic", corrupting the entire medial system into falsely claiming that the normal 40,000 cold and flu deaths that year were due to this fake "deadly virus", and of course then introducing a VERY REAL dangerous and deadly bioweapon "vaccine" that did actually slaughter millions of people~? HA~! OH! They would not do that~! But they did~! They are STILL doing it, and sour Berry and the rotten bananas are the very local criminals of humanity who have been knowingly conducting ALL of these "population reduction" campaigns for years now right in our face all along~! Gee, what a coincidence huh?

Have a great weekend and enjoy the gift of this cooler weather while it lasts~!

Sincerely, Mike

It's all by design, Susan. That's where they 'got' us. We can't believe anyone would deliberately create this situation, and yet, here we are.😳

There's going to be a clear backlash against socialist/communist policy in the US. It was only able to last so long in the Soviet block, because it was a block and there was a media gatekeeper. Just the threat of the recall of Katie Wilson demonstrates that the narrative is breaking in WA. How do we just recall Berry and our other leaders who are hurting CC? Ninety-five Theses?

Hey Mike and Mark, if you wonder why folks who previously voted for you are saying things you don't want to hear at public comments, in emails and on social media and taking their vote elsewhere, it's not what Toxic Salsa and confused reptiles are telling you. SEE ABOVE LIST

Sorry for the AI list, but it's sort of funny that 95 items could be generated so easily.

Robert James's avatar

And instantly! We 'think we think'...Ai DOES! It's not all bad...I love my ChatGPT...so far it doesn't want to kill me and it gathers information I wouldn't be able to in multiple lifetimes...I wouldn't even be able to access most of the material it has at hand. Who is inputting all the data? I know it's mining our collective consciousnesses through social media but what about those obscure subjects that might be locked up in some government basement...It definitely doesn't have all the answers but I am able to have 'adult' conversations with it that is extremely rare in the human world, in my experience. Experience- Ex=outside, peri= around, 'ience', or 'ence'=knowing. Outside Around Knowing. Who or what are we Outside Around Knowing. We are NOT what we think we are! We are much more...but we don't know it, Yet!🤓

David, on #29 I asked the Commissioners to have more discussion on consent agenda items so the public could understand their points of view at the Tuesday BoCC meetings. I was told to attend the Monday work sessions by French. Which I then did for a couple of sessions. A week or so later, to their credit, the Comms and Mielke started giving more explanation to the items up for consent. I don't know how Jeff does both the work session and the regular meeting week after week. He's a trooper!

The list is certainly highly arguable and would need heavy edits for accuracy. I'm having second thoughts of posting it. Mike was willing to meet with me a month ago and we had a good walk and talk.

David Zelenka's avatar

Does all that fit on one of those round POD drop-shipping stickers? Be nice to see one tacked to CC's door, but that would be vandalism!

Susie Blake's avatar

I am so over the stickers everywhere. Look at the electrical boxes and poles downtown PA, it looks so trashy.

Not if it's completely removable. (as per BOCCC)

Anything is theoretically completely removable, including those 'stickers' in those chairs of Kommissars! 'Goof Off' might work!😆

I have watched over $100m in tax money lost in CC by giving contracts to non CC contractors. The PSBF is the worst by far. $14mnproject is late because of faulty bids that required a rebid. It was awarded the second time to the faulty bidder.with no bid bond penalty. Our leaders dropped the ball and allowed outside Companies to get this work over 2 local CC GCs. When will we wake up? This money should be spent locally to bolster CC not King and Pierce. The Sequim schools are being proposed for bids and that I believe we passed a $200m budget. I bet no one local will be asked to participate. Where are our leaders in this process? Supporting parking lots,drugs, homeless projects, Tribe giveaways,and paying less than assessed value on residents homes.i find it very frustrating to watch this happen and the leaders DONT care. Jeff and Jake have exposed the waste in this CC and all they get is some people complains about CCWD. We need a different direction than we are headed. Bankruptcy is not a solution. Now my coffee is awaiting😎

Denise Lapio's avatar

I saw the article about the bus on clallamcountywa.gov and nearly fell off my chair. A roving bus filled with stinky bodies, animals, and filthy belongings. I guess French and Berry think it's going to be driven by unicorns and cleaned with magic fairy dust. Real people have to put up with adults who, thanks to our local gov't, expect the royal treatment of indulgence. Maybe this is why Sequim Parking Space Program needs more money. More paint is needed to elongate the white lines dedicated for bus parking only.

JAKE SEEGERS 2026!!

MK's avatar

A dignity bus, in their heads. The word "dignity" is offered to essuage their mind's tension while trapping more people from the responsibility to be as much of a contributing member of society as everyone else is.

French and Berry can lead the way by offering a room in their own homes to those they feel so obligated to. Otherwise it's the government determining morality, which isn't the government's role as we've been told forever when it has come to other groups pushing their morals on society. More double standards.

CAS's avatar

Once again the use of words...."compassion" and we see with our own eyes people lying on the sidewalks and streets and all the mental illness and Berry said give them a sandwich, water and now will she direct them to the "dignity" bus? Let's just spend more tax dollars on another NGO and a bus. Will OLYCAP have staff to welcome them to the bus morning and night? Employing more for a NGO? Compassion and dignity is getting the addicted into recovery.

John Worthington's avatar

Bryan Maricles of the world can get all the compassion in the world and still be a threat to himself and the people around him. When he was in the RV by my apartment. he started a fire in his kitchen and the fire department had to come put it out before his RV burned down. Three years later finally got trespassed and moved to a field and was there for a month until field caught on fire.

If a guy like that ever gets his own place he will burn it down and kill people. Mental health needs orderlies. You can't do it any other way. Why they stopped doing it so the Dr. Barry's of the world can deal with them in out-patient is insane.

So, Bob Ferguson, the highly questionable Washington State "governor" who was very likely installed via a corrupted and rigged election, actually hid reports about the climate? I am going out on a limb here, by guessing that the reports that Ferguson hid from the general public contradicted the "fear porn" scam of the global climate change cult~! There is no money in telling folks that everything is just fine, huh Bob? Of course, the local rivers and streams are running at low levels right now because that is what always happens in the summer. Oh, and for the emotionally hysterical, the brain dead, and people who have just been born, or are new to North America, the summer months are warmer here and the rivers and streams are always running at their lowest levels... We here are simply seeing the rivers and streams running at the lower end of their absolutely historic "NORMAL RANGE"~! Additionally, this winter will be wet and colder, in the NORMAL range, so I am sure that the climate cult will be screaming there "fear porn" terrorist BS nonstop as they always do... If "we" completely removed those criminals and fools in the climate change cult, suddenly, magically, the climate would return to "normal", and we would not have to deal with these evil criminal scam artists and their money & property stealing social engineering agenda~! It is something to consider ;-) Ferguson just proved that he is not only a criminal engaged in the fake climate scam, but that he is very actively working to deceive folks in Washington State to further terrorize and extort them with deceptions and lies~! Nothing new for Ferguson~! Keep up the great work Jeff Tozzer! The Watchdog is one of the ONLY dependable sources of real and accurate news in Clallam County and it gives everyone a chance to "think"~!

Sincerely, Mike

Denise Lapio's avatar

Ferguson signed the Millionaire's Tax, he hid the Climate revision, and he continues to enforce the state's sanctuary policies. What's not to like about a thieving, lying, cheating, corrupted lawyer turned politician?

Timothy Weller's avatar

Inslee, Phase II; Ferguson was Inslee's AG, and still initiates lawsuits against anything remotely tied to the Trump Administration. A "clear and present danger" is the narrative being sold to those who are so deeply entrenched, that they cannot possibly save face by admitting they are wrong, and being controlled. This new "Dignity Bus" will certainly cause the person who cleans the private cubicles to question their own, about 5 minutes into the first cubicle cleaning, likely having to clean up their own vomit.

Michael Heath's avatar

Absolutely, Patriot Timothy Weller~!

We here in Washington State are absolutely disgraced and embarrassed by the phony & fake "lawfare" that Ferguson and the treasonous criminals of humanity in the corrupt Washington State government are conducting~! Unfortunately, there are not enough good folks here in Washington State who are Intelligent and honorable enough to purge these deeply rooted criminals from our governmental system here. We never voted for these criminals, and they have long captured our otherwise great state with MANY decades of corrupted and rigged elections. This is a recipe for a bloody disaster sooner or later, but with any luck, and God's help, maybe we can avoid actual bloodshed on a large scale. I really don't know, but we would be well advised to prepare for the worst-case scenario just in case. I know that the DOGE investigations have been at work here in Washington State for quite a while now, and the fact is that Ferguson and his KKKLAN have well notified and alerted President Trump and The White Hats of their REAL "clear and present danger" that these criminals pose to the good folks of Washington State AND America! Ha! That is the problem that these idiots never seem to understand, they openly attack President Trump and The White Hats, leaving no wiggle room of doubt as to their true Intentions, so that even the most ignorant sleeping sheep here in Washington State start to wake up! The communist fanatics are "lost souls" and they no longer matter, even when they cowardly hide behind their fake "socialist" BS! We have ALL known people who had real difficulties understanding relatively simple concepts and all sorts of things. It is normal for all of us to have had to struggle understanding some things from time to time. The real problem in America is that too many are not capable of understanding the deadly serious nature of communism and on the flip side they REALLY can't understand that The American Constitutional common law "free market economy" is the ONLY way to provide for any sort of dependable & prosperous country (society). I regularly hear these so-called "socialists" bitch about the horrors of the current US "capitalistic economy". This absolutely astounds me, because America has NOT had anything even close to a free market capitalistic economy in WELL over 100 years! So these complete idiots sit around with their thumbs up their A$$E$, constantly pushing and voting for their communistic model, that in fact destroyed the free market capitalistic model, and then they bitch about "capitalism" that they intentionally destroyed~! May it rain great horny toads on them~! Now THAT is flaming moronic stupid at a level that only they could possibly be! The rest of us have been these scumbags' victims all of our lives, so now "we" are done with that insanity and demand our freedom and ALL of our rights! Which somehow confuses these "useful idiots" of communists even further... AMAZING~! I, and most Americans, no longer give a damn what these retarded social misfits think, because they had their chance and COMPLETELY screwed everyone in the process... Have a mellow day and keep the faith, because "we" (The REAL American Patriots) are the vast majority and outnumber these dysfunctional retarded morons by a HUGE number~!

Sincerely, Mike

Michael Heath's avatar

You are 100% correct, Patriot Denise Lapio~!

Freguson also attacked our 2nd Amendment gun rights and stabbed the folks in Washington in the back in MANY other ways as well. To be accurate, Freguson has been. and still is, committing treason on a regular basis, which does in fact make him subject to criminal prosecutions for treason and crimes against humanity, and therefore eligible for the death penalty as well. I am not in any way "bloodthirsty", however as an American Constitutionalist I do accept the fact that treason and crimes against humanity MUST be resolved by the guilty being executed, as a hard and fast reminder to all that such criminal's behavior is NEVER tolerated in America. It also removes any possibility that these criminals of humanity can further harm anyone, AND it provides justice for all of their victims both living and deceased. Compassion and understanding ends, where harm is intentionally and knowingly repeatedly done to countless people... Keep the faith my friend and have a wonderful weekend~!

Sincerely,

Mike

1) The Commissioners hand out the public's money to multiple NGOs and other organizations not answerable to the public. 2) At the same time the Commissioners also sit on the Boards of many of those same organizations creating a conflict of interest. (Someone should draw up the interlocking web of connections created.) 3) Those organizations are very opaque about how they spend the public's money. The lack of transparency leaves one wondering how much might flow back to the Commissioners, either directly or to their campaign fund?

One day it may be Mike French that needs the pardon.

Let's not forget the new mandatory law in this state about the caseload for public defenders. Some counties are already dropping cases and releasing those in custody. Certainly not going to keep the public more safe....

Washington State has set mandatory public defender caseload limits of 47 felony cases and 120–150 misdemeanor cases per year, with phased implementation through 2036.

Overview of the New Caseload Limits

The Washington Supreme Court responded to a crisis in the state’s public defense system by reducing the maximum caseloads for public defenders. Under the new standards, effective January 1, 2026, public defenders are limited to 47 felony cases or 120–150 misdemeanor cases per year, depending on their primary practice area, compared to the previous limits of 150 felonies and 400 misdemeanors .

These limits are mandatory, not aspirational, and trial courts have authority to enforce them, including in civil commitment cases
