  1. The above news was on all local channels, but surprisingly the “Democratic” Tacoma News Tribune did NOT report it. (Unless I missed it somehow). I wonder why?

  2. DON’T bring politics into everything!

    Congratulations to the police officer for a fast response to a critical situation. We are proud of our men and women in blue who see their job as protecting the public.
