The franchise of the Seattle Freeze social and protest of the mating instinct has devolved into a warped and deranged valley the surreal, as success has consequences and a nuclear grade of envy sweeping across the Pacific Northwest in the form of a rage forged by Adderall, vegan Wickens hosting neighborhood Pertussis parties of immunological glamor, and a new wave order of bronzed amazonians obliterating standards and shattering records of athletic achievement.
Outside of the first 100 days of Trump version 2.0, 2025 has been an eventful year as the delayed response from the Covid protests have finally reached an ugly fruition.
Musical sensation and brand Macklemore, became the latest celebrity in the Seattle region to have his castle of a residence ransacked by burglars, as a pair of intruders burst into his mansion and proceeded to liquidate a notable cache of luxury items, including jewelry and watches. The incident marks the most recent chapter in a series of crimes, where the targets are prominent athletes and public figures, including Seattle Mariner star Julio Rodriquez, former Seattle Seahawk Richard Sherman, and major league pitcher Blake Snell. All at least own property within the proximity to the Seattle area.
While breaking and entering is a savage and felonious act, why armed security did not intervene in each of the criminal acts in the Pacific Northwest calls into question the typical anti-gun and anti-law enforcement stance that dominates the majority opinion of public figures. Hypocrisy aside, the fallout from the controversial antics and aloofness of Colin Kaepernick towards admonishing the Flag and contracted security professionals, while deliberately endorsing lawlessness of multiple violent protests is evidence that quite possibly the safety of family members are not paramount to those living in the rarified air of a high-profile lifestyle. The former NFL quarterback was the face of modern-day nightmare of the abolitionist movement that has become septic after a decade 0f societal neglect from a noticeable proportion of professional athletes.
NBC affiliate King 5 television of Seattle reports that the intrusion of Macklemore’s estate involved a pair of dauntless crooks assaulting a nanny after bursting into the house during the early hours of the night where children were asleep. The criminals allegedly entered the premises and encountered a frightened family employee around midnight. Chaos ensued, and apparently, the leader of the attack team ordered his colleague to mace the nanny, while he ransacked a nearby bedroom and smashed and grabbed paraphernalia and goods estimated to be worth in upwards of $100 thousand. Miraculously, the babysitter was able to escape the residence after biting one of the assailant’s hands, ran to a neighbor’s door and called police. Fortunately, the children were harmed or injured.
After an initial investigation of the crime scene, law enforcement determined that the intruders used digital jamming devices to temporarily disable an array of electronic cameras, as well as an alarm system.
A suspect arrested in connection with the burglary of Rodriguez, Sherman and Snell was apparently in possession of a battery powered device capable of blocking security technology from effectively functioning by disrupting the local wireless signal broadcasting from the router. Various equipment is available through Amazon and runs for as little as a $10 retail price point before shipping and handling.
While it is a curiosity that wealthy individuals in the sporting and entertainment arenas have faced loss of personal property through robberies, is it beyond coincidence that celebrities are being targeted as a display of retaliation considering the fact that Seattle has the one of the highest average salaries in the nation due to the influence of the tech industry and a decadent abundance of disposable income. The aversion to employing armed security staff and the disdain towards law enforcement is almost pathetically naive when one takes into account the safety of family and friends, especially with a surging crime rate, as people with bad intentions are willing to act aggressively in an environment that is predominately anti-Second Amendment.
In the absence of consequence, anything is possible for the worst as responsibility is going the route of Natural Selection and not in a favorable trajectory.
