[quote:Anonymous Coward 9983835:MV80NDczMTUwXzgxNDY0NzkwX0VDNENBRTc3] [quote:Anonymous Coward 78083827:MV80NDczMTUwXzgxNDY0NjY3X0Y0NzI0RDJD] cops hiding in the shadows with a radar gun?? defund. cops over-watching construction workers? defund. cops patrolling hiking trails or rec areas? defund. cops setting up barricades in the hope some criminal might come though? defund. the list goes on and on and on...but.. Cops patrolling high crime areas? FUND Cops responding to violence? FUND Cops maintaining the peace in a large crowd? FUND So then we certainly need the police, but like half of what they are currently doing are things they shouldn't be doing. Alot of the things people dislike or hate about police happens because the cops are put in places and situations they shouldn't be in, as they are unqualified for anything except maintaining the peace through intimidation and threats of violence. Change my mind its open to new information. [/quote] Man, you said what I wanted to say but much better. Kudos smarty pants [/quote]
Original Message
Seattle's Marxist city council fool released some details about the plan to reduce the police budget by 50%. It cuts 681 of the 755 officers. Seven of nine council members have voiced support for cutting SPD’s budget in half, a veto-proof majority.
This is what happens when people vote in radicals
