Seattle Set to Slash Police Budget Amid Crime Spike

Democratic Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan is set to sign a bill that would slash police funding amid a citywide crime spike. 

Durkan’s signature would cut police training and overtime funds by 18% after the city council voted overwhelmingly in favor of the budget reductions, according to Fox News. Activists within local government unsuccessfully sought a 50% slash in law enforcement funding, but the council did approve the transfer of 911 dispatchers, parking officers and mental health workers out of the Seattle Police Department (SPD), Fox reported.

  1. Can anyone explain what an “activist within local government” is? It sounds like within local government would be a government paid employee. I know I’m nitpicking, and I’m sure that this will work out just fine. Fuckem

    1. Sounds like a domestic enemy to me. Which means she has broken her oath of office.

  2. They must already have made shopping bags and drinking straws illegal because now they get to do the other important stuff.

  3. My advice to all the Seattle police: Forget all that bullshit about protecting the public and quit. Find a job in private industry.

  4. Wait. How does this work? They are cutting the budget, moving certain workers to other departments and then hiring another 100 officers? How does one "cut the budget" by such activities?

    1. It's a highly technical process.

    3. Well, if you fired more experienced cops (higher salary) and replaced them with new hires you might be able to pay the new ones less.

      BUT. The real reason is probably about firing whites and replacing them with negroes. And with political loyalists. For those of you who hate cops for their misbehavior, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Let a hundred Mohammed Noors bloom! (The Somali trash who shot Justine Damond in Minneapolis.)

  5. All cops in Seattle and other cities supporting a police defunding policy should quit. I'll wager in a week these officials would be thrown out in the street. Who they gonna call for help?
