Those substantial cuts, which seem likely to pass at present, are themselves in response to “Defund the Police” activism and organizing that quickly became a nationally recognizable aspect of the Black Lives Matter movement following the Minneapolis Police Department’s killing of George Floyd in late May.

I can't believe they came out and said it, I would expect them to fire all of their white officers and proclaim it from Mt McKinley.

This kind of proves what many have been saying. Not so smart racists running the police force. How stupid do you have to be to admit you are going to fire people in a discriminatory manner? You have to be pretty stupid.

Seattle police are cowards and let the people of Seattle down...

But there is no systemic racism, right?

I'm sure it DOES exist, and this might actually PROVE it...

But I'm sure you realize that Seattle is run by DEMOCRATS, right???

Does it matter? Not all.democrats are as clean as the new snow. They just tend to be generally cleaner than republicans.

This can't be true.

Is that report accurate?

Common sense tells us that if any cop has to be fired in Seattle, s/he will be Euro-American.

1. Seattle is super liberal.

2. There was the autonomous zone in that city.

3. There was the recent protests by that "anti-cop movement."

4. In 2020, everyone is kowtowing to a certain ethnicity. No one would dare fire a member of that ethnicity.

why dont they go by seniority?....

What make you think they won't? I highly doubt they will fire a 20 yr veteran black cop and keep a 10 yr vet white cop, if they're both doing the same job. BUT - it may also depend on the type of experience you have, a person with more experience in one type of police work that is more valuable and harder to replace may well keep his/her job over another person with more years on the force. But it's foolish to assume they'll merely scrub the non-whites just due to race, that ain't going to happen in Seattle. Discrimination lawsuits would be numerous, so the decisions will have to be justifiable.

Probably do, because of "discrimination" those POC were most likely the last hired. That and the fact that many POC do not want the jab---can't blame them. If faced with the same dilemma, I'd quit too.
