  1. How is it that if you go south of 145th on Aurora you see dozens of half dressed women selling there wares but if you go north of 145th on Aurora you don't? The only answer I can come up with is that Shoreline police are doing their job and Seattle police are not. Cleaning up Aurora south of 145th is not rocket science.
