City Council will have a robust and heavily armed private security...paid for by taxpayers.

The end is near. Seattle property values are going to plummet, if they haven’t already.

The Lord said, “If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake.”

27 Then Abraham spoke up again: “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes, 28 what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five people?”

“If I find forty-five there,” he said, “I will not destroy it.”

29 Once again he spoke to him, “What if only forty are found there?”

He said, “For the sake of forty, I will not do it.”

30 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?”

He answered, “I will not do it if I find thirty there.”

31 Abraham said, “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty can be found there?”

He said, “For the sake of twenty, I will not destroy it.”

32 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak just once more. What if only ten can be found there?”

He answered, “For the sake of ten, I will not destroy it.”

Seattle City Council approves plan to defund police department, slashes jobs and salaries

These council members and the idiots who voted them to office live in nice homes in the suburbs and have probably never needed a cop in their lives. The people in the inner-city areas will have to deal with the crime that will result from this stupidity.

https://mynorthwest.com/2081768/rantz-seattle-council-fire-people-of-color/

The woke Seattle City Council is poised to fire officers of color and cut the black police chief’s salary to ensure she gets paid less than her white predecessor. How’s that for social justice?

Monday’s vote is likely to pass, despite the council’s best efforts to claim they’ll fight for people of color. If those people of color are cops, however, the council deems them unworthy of protection.

...The council makes this move knowing that newly hired, less experienced officers will be let go first. In the last year or so, the department has been focused on hiring more people of color to better represent different communities. Consequently, the council will force the department to fire minority officers.

Realizing this is a bad look, white Councilmember Lisa Herbold suggests the Seattle Police Department seek permission to exclusively fire white officers. This is, of course, illegal discrimination and flatly racist. It also makes little sense to fire officers who have more experience......

The DNC, party of the KKK, Jim Crow and Joe Biden has figured out new ways to legally kill the descendents of their former slaves, blacks in Blue Cities, like Seattle, New York City, Chicago!:

Leo Terrell: ‘Joe Biden Has the Mindset of a Plantation Owner
townhall ^ | 08/07/2020 | Leah Barkoukis

1. Fund Planned Parenthood to slaughter unborn black babies whose Black Baby Lives Mean Nothing.
2. Defund the police in blue cities like Seattle Chicago, NY City, ______________.
3. Elect Joe Bidementia as our president!

Thanks to “defund the police” and the Democrat Blue cities going along with it, violent crime including homicide is surging in most of America’s largest blue cities. The raw numbers are terrible for Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, and other very blue and large American cities.

Weekly BLM Kills in Chicagostan: https://heyjackass.com/

Hold massive BLM protests in Blue Cities with high Covid 19 infection rates. Like the one planned in DC for teachers, coordinated by the DNC’s long time BLM overseer, Al Sharpton.

Then, let the killer virus Covid 19 take out more blacks participating in the protests involving 100,000 BLMers, packed together, yelling and screaming while protesting. That will spread the CV 19 into their BLM mobs to take it home with them.

Marxist Democrat urban areas will become surreal 21st century ghost towns. Residential, commercial real estate and populations are declining daily. Soon, they will be haunted mostly by the strange and deranged. Street cops don’t even want to accompany the coroners to pick up the black bodies much less perform active policing or peacekeeping.

It’s strange times in New York City. COVID — and confused government policies — has commercial buildings desolate in Manhattan. Few are returning to work in their offices despite politicians proclaiming otherwise. Restaurants can open for food but not for drinks. Gatherings are forbidden — unless it is to protest. Crime is through the roof, months after elected officials allowed looting and forced police to turn a blind eye.

Nazi’s didn’t want to kill everyone either, just the ones they didn’t want.

This means that the court system will not receive any new
cases. Officers will not be enforcing the laws. Anarchy
will follow.

Seattle is melting down.

Maybe when it’s crap starts flooding into the ocean, the
environmentalist will step in and cry fowl.

I’m guessing some of the city’s business owners are suffering some serious 20-20 hindsight right now.

Maybe they can take the insurance money for their burned out businesses and move to a red state, start up again and vote in lefty loons to start the process of devolution all over again.

I seriously doubt that many, if any, of these people who are taking up the rear financially there are getting religion and going conservative. Progressives have absolutely no idea of the concept of cause and effect or the immutable law of unintended consequences.

Cut first. Figure out new solution later. Sounds like a pla.

Great news! With all that extra money they won’t need the federal government to bail them out.

Wimps! If you want to defund something, go all the way, not a paltry sum. This is a political stunt.These clowns know the ramifications of complete defunding and would never have the testicles to do it.
