Seattle's chief of police said in a Monday night video that she wants residents to call 911 if called racist names during the coronavirus pandemic.
"Washington state is no place for hate. In a show of solidarity between police and community, I'm joined today by Lori Matsukawa," Chief of Police Carmen Best said, referring to the retired KING 5 news anchor who joined her in the video.
"Hate crimes have no place in our community," Matsukawa continued. "We're better than that, Washington. We're all trying to deal with the COVID-19 public health crisis together. If you are a victim of a hate crime or hate-based harassment, please call 911."

Call the police if someone calls you a bad name. What has happened to our society?
Yeah, sure.
“Hey, that guy called me a honkey. Help!”
Muggings and robberies, not so much.
That’s silly. Some women are perfectly suited for a position of authority. I have met such women, even learned from them. While others remind us of old stereotypes, where women are too emotional and take things too personally.
Calling someone a bad name as a hate crime.
When the cop asked you if you did, call them a bad name too
How about “whitey”, “cracker” or “honkey”? Those are ok right?
Is it my imagination or do Fox videos almost never match up to the headlines in the article referring to that video?
This chief may have misheard the Robert Downey Jr line from the movie Tropic Thunder. It was “never go full retard”. He probably heard “always go full retard”.
You’re an ahole, Lori!
I just called you a name! The horror!
Seattle....the looney bin of the Pacific Northwest.
Voicing your opinion is also a “hate crime.”
Lori-—You have the YELLOW fever.
Boy O Boy. I'm from Alabama and old enough (76) to remember when the racist's only lived here.
“We’re better than that, Washington”
What??? She didn’t use the well-worn platitude “That’s not who we are”? She must be slipping.
Everybody called it the Wuhan Virus or Wuhan Flu or WuFlu before the Chinese communists activated their woke brigades in the United States. Now, to call it by its honest and factual name is a “racist crime.”
It was nice for a couple of weeks when all the “woke” crap got off the front pages. But, now IT’S BACK...with vengeance.
Then I’m destined for a life in prison, while wetbacks are released to rape and murder.
Lori Matsukawa doesn’t seem to understand America or the sticks and stones may break my bones thing.
Seattle can no longer be called America.
In 2003 seattle decided the city was above and beyond American law. Declaring a sanctuary was an act of secession. As a seceded state, Seattle has nullified the first amendment.
Seattle is no longer America
