Insane: Seattle Moves to Abolish Entire Police Force [second thread]

Well, it may be time to deploy the military to Seattle after all because what local lawmakers are doing is nothing short of allowing the city to be engulfed in violence and anarchy. They’re moving to abolish the police. It’s not defunding. It’s a total dissolution. Non-profit programs and “community-led activities” will replace policing. Why? Well, according to the resolution, the Seattle Police Department perpetuates racism and violence. Oh, yes, and it’s a vehicle of white supremacy. It's typical 'woke' nonsense

It’s gotten worse since. It’s true that Seattlites are by and far practically minded business people in the private sector. Barbershops, cafes, laundromats, cleaning services, and so on are all private sector businesses staffed by people that work hard and believe in capitalism because they are capitalists.

Meanwhile, Marxists filled government jobs spanning at least two decades while no one was looking and that includes the election offices. There are people on the City Coundil that the majority of Seattlites wouldn’t vote for ever. So how did they get there?

And people need to smarten up because the Marxist infiltration and takeover in Seattle and other leftist cities is growing.

Only a few battleground states need to flip to Democrats and Trump is history. And within those states are a few cities of large populations of voters that have no clue their election process has been or is in the process of being subverted.

People posting here that “voters get what they deserve” are idiots or complicit. Leftists peering into these types of threads are all too happy to see such idiots blame it on voters.

Seattle will become hell on earth, a major hub and fortress for drug cartels and sex trafficking.Will also be a place where illegal invaders from communist China could easily come into our country via the harbor there.

I feel very sorry for the minority conservatives and Christians who live there. I know there are some, they are just very outnumbered by the evil and insane marxists.

I agree completely. See my post. https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3870320/posts?page=103#103

Sometimes the solution that seems best and easiest actually isn’t the wisest.

Thank you! I've had a hard time believing the entire city was this crazed, I knew there were lots of leftists there but no way are there that many who would agree with this stuff! Thank you SO MUCH for posting this.

The elections offices are populated by Marxists indoctrinated in the city colleges finding employment after graduation with the City over the past decades.

The elections are rigged and the people in Seattle are still in shock not knowing what to do but they are now getting organized and spreading awareness.

There are hundreds of thousands of good people and families in Seattle but their vote has been stolen.

This is now prevalent in other cities and will be coming to you unless you first stop blaming voters and start getting educated about what is happening o the voting system.

The party of the KKK and Jim Crow figured out a new way to kill blacks:

Defund the police!

I wonder how many were killed by perps out on no cash bail. Perhaps, all of 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 bodies much less perform active policing or peacekeeping.

The blackest skies, filled with smoke are in Seattle

And the streets are red with blood in Seattle

Like insanity’s child,

tearing down, going wild

Full of shouts and full of jeers,

mocking laughter, making fears

Full of nightmares lasting years

In Seattle

In Seattle

From ballotpedia:

All elections in Seattle are done by mail.

Most of the campaign money in 2019 came from outside of Seattle. There was $4.2 million of it.

Candidates received 2.5 million in tax money directed to them by voters. Each voter was able to direct two $25 vouchers to candidates of their choice.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seattle had 653,017 residents as of 2015

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It appears there were about 251 thousand ballots cast for city council offices in the 2019 general election.

From Washington state:

Seattle has about 462,000 registered voters. That is a turnout of over 54% in an off year election, which is very high.

And the Mortuaries are part of this also.

I thought they had invested all their money in the Wuhan Flu.

YW.

Note one of the basic lessons of election fraud is once fraudulent ballots are counted, it is irreversible. There is traceback of ballots cast from fraudulent voter registrations, there is no way to prove which way the fraudulent registrant voted.

In prior post-election court cases in WA State regarding fraud, it was found with airtight proof that the number of fraudulent voter registrations, confirmed to have voted, greatly exceeded the margin of votes won-stolen by the Democrat candidate, but there was no way to prove which way the fraudulent ballot was cast.

Nor is it enough to ‘scrub’ clean the voter rolls although it helps, because bags of bogus manufactured ballots can be counted when no one is looking, and once the Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck ballots are counted, it’s irreversible; can’t be undone.

And poll watchers who commit to watching each step of the process to ensure election integrity, their lives are at risk as they stand in the same room with people who are Antifa by night.

What is needed are actors posing as leftist sympathizers performing undercover work, fully authorized to secretly record video-audio of fraud taking place, linked to authorities that are able to quickly suspend vote counting based on probable cause of attempted election theft

Being close, I'm surprised you're unaware of the major seaport, ferries, in-town heavy airport (Boeing Field), and rail service in and out of the city.
