A Seattle lawmaker has furiously denied her support for defunding the police is to blame for soaring crime in the city.
Council member Kshama Sawant said the city should not add police resources to the Central District neighborhood after 24 children had to crawl to the bathroom of a daycare facility following a shooting.
The incident happened on Monday outside of the A-4 Apple Learning Center, with a 47-year-old man being shot on the street.
A bullet pierced through the window of the center, with co-owner Appollonia Washington telling staff and children inside to 'army crawl' to the bathroom and hide.
In response, the facility shared a statement slamming the City Council and its members for allowing violence to 'plague' the area.
Their statement said: 'The shooting left windows broken and glass shattered where the children were sitting.
'Our hearts are broken by this occurrence as it is our life's mission to educate and nourish our children, parents, and trust their children to come each day to school with the expectation that they will be safe and educated.
'This area has been plagued by violence for the past two years. Despite contacting city council members, community leaders, Vulcan, and even the mayor's office, the learning center has not received any help.
'From the staff on the Board of Directors of A-4 Apple Learning Center, we would like to ask the community: Is public safety a buzzword for politicians or can it serve as a call to action for our youth and community.'
Speaking to KOMO News, Washington said: 'Show your face because your presence is needed to support us. Who is [Sawant]? I’ve reached out to [her office] for two years.

Being a Leftist means never having to accept responsibility for your actions.
“Why would Donald Trump shoot up our school?”
She is an avowed commie. I really don’t care about the drive-by. Everyone in her rancid city deserves what they voted for. Yes, even kids because their rotten parents overwhelmingly voted for these commie clowns.
Yo! Kshama, babe! You are a politician! You work for the people and it is they that will decide if your crazy liberal left defund-the-police policies contribute to higher crime. Seems to be a no-brainer equation to everyone with a minimal amount of rational thought capability between their ears that not having police to do...oh I dunno..POLICE...will result in higher crime. Cupid Stunt. Rant /off.
The last time I saw a reference to anybody named Appollonia, Steve Reeves was dressed like Herrcules. I wonder if "The Special Name" store is located next to the daycare place.
She is an ungrateful little spoiled brat who never go a good spanking as a kid. She hates America and she hates YOU. Deport her back to her friends in India; it’s a Socialist Paradise. Out!
She was the best thing about the Purple Rain movie.
I used to rent a storage space to her husbands uncle. Her house is full of Nazi memorabilia, according to him.
Typical of leftists. They never take responsibility for the intended or unintended consequences of their actions.
This is what Seattle votes for.
Damn you to hell, Fabrizio! Glad to see Michael got his revenge on him, eventually.
Sawant is everything that went wrong with Seattle, both symptom and cause. She isn’t the only one, but she’s the worst.
Progressive commies are incapable of taking responsibility for their own actions.
Smirking Sawant in her office.
“is an Indian-American politician and economist who has served on the Seattle City Council since 2014. She was raised mostly in Mumbai. In January 2023, Sawant announced that she would not seek re-election, and would instead promote the Socialist Alternative campaign Workers Strike Back to unionize workers.”
I’m disgusted with foreigners holding any type of office. Ilhan Omar tops the list. Especially when they loudly support terrorists.
FTA-——’From the staff on the Board of Directors of A-4 Apple Learning Center, we would like to ask the community: Is public safety a buzzword for politicians or can it serve as a call to action for our youth and community.’
Speaking to KOMO News, Washington said: ‘Show your face because your presence is needed to support us. Who is [Sawant]? I’ve reached out to [her office] for two years.
‘Nothing, they never support anything that people of color do in this community. We need police presence.’
Did you miss “Godfather 1”?
