These crime rates seem inflated. The vast majority of homeless are totally harmless. The true criminals wear suits, not rags! People in Olympia are compassionate and offer help to others in need. I've lived here for over 20 years and am still not a victim, except having my unlocked car rummaged through. I'd like to see the evidence that the homeless here are from other states; sounds speculative and with partisan roots.

I don't trust these crime rates for Olympia. Minor crimes are so common, we almost never call them in. We are overrun with homeless originating from other states due to generous handouts including free hotel rooms
