Anti-police Seattle City Councilwoman and mayoral candidate Lorena González pressured the Seattle Police Department to rescind an invite to a law enforcement appreciation dinner.

The May event is being hosted by Rev. Franklin Graham and the Ministry of Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. The SPD Wellness Unit forwarded a link to the invite without commentary on April 14. But in Seattle, you don’t get to appreciate law enforcement — not if Gonzalez has anything to do with it.

Councilmember Lorena Gonzalez. (Seattle Channel) Anti-police Seattle City Councilwoman and mayoral candidate Lorena González pressured the Seattle Police Department to rescind an invite to a law enforcement appreciation dinner.

The May event is being hosted by Rev. Franklin Graham and the Ministry of Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. The SPD Wellness Unit forwarded a link to the invite without commentary on April 14. But in Seattle, you don’t get to appreciate law enforcement — not if Gonzalez has anything to do with it.

Gonzalez frames her concern over LGBTQ issues, calling out Graham’s religious views as anti-gay. But her concerns are contrived. This is about getting in the way of supporting police officers. In the process, she wins some plaudits from anti-police activists upset she hasn’t done enough to abolish the police.

I would seriously love to see the whole SPD walk out, from the captain on down. No cops anywhere. See how that works out; they’re so hindered anyway they’re useless.

“González”?

WTH is that little fly speck above the “a”? Don’t see many of them in the USA. (Oh, yeah - I forgot - it’s now the “uSA”. Not united so much anymore - gotta appeal to the tribe and the “woke”.)

Me too. Leave unprotected Seattle to the anarchists. Let’s see how that ends.

The idiot on the Seattle City Council are totally delusional. They should be on medication, as should the people who voted them into office. Unreal.
