You would think Seattle would of learned a lesson from the Mardi Gras riot from a few years back where Seattle Police were under orders not to get involved, as a young man coming to the the aid of a girl getting beat up was beaten to death himself with a skateboard - while Seattle Police just stood and watched.
“Makes you wonder what Seattle tax payers are paying these guys to do.”
If that’s a rail station I’d guess it’s owned by local gov’t at some level. Why aren’t there real cops on patrol there? Not having people who can make arrests is one sure way of keeping the arrest stats down.
They aren’t going to learn from this either.
