I thought the Seattle City Council defunding the police after the riots was supposed to make everything better.
-
This is why I moved out of Washington.
-
It's sad that we can't walk around our own city and have to hide in our houses and hope we can get to our cars without getting mugged or shot.
-
Unrealistic expectation from community. Can't have it both ways, defund and be pro-active!
-
Well... Crime might be going up, but at least the Chief of Police isn't missing any meals.
-
Criminals, homelsss, and drug addicts have NO FEAR that there will be any consequences for their actions. What we need to do is to make some examples out of these people. Make it hurt, and make it public. The rest will get the message and either leave or change their behavior.
-
Congrats, Seattle is practically autonomous now. But you don’t like what you asked for? If you’ve made this bed, please do lay in it
-
why would the police chief say that self defense is a "big concern"? lmfao
-
I hate driving in Seattle. Haven't felt safe there since the early 2000"s.
-
Gives a whole new meaning to "Space NEEDLE"...
-
The ability to arm and protect yourself is a god-given right if the police won't do thier then take it upon yourself to defend you and your community.
-
Do you remember slugbug car game? In Seattle it's the dirty needle game. 2 points for a needle and a orange cap is 1 point game!
-
The Mayor & Chief of Police needs to GO, useless!!!!!!!
-
Puget sound reminds me of L.A when it slowly started going down hill. People really think something will change but it will get overrun by criminals. Not just Seattle but the whole puget sound.
-
Arrest the People using drugs. Arrest the People stealing to buy drugs. Arrest the drug dealers.
-
How did Seattle ever believe this would end up any different
-
What happened to hiring social workers to respond to violent calls 😆
-
Not just Seattle. The Entire Nation is under siege.
-
@1:24 There's a good chance she supported "Defund SPD"
-
Don't want people to take in their own hands but you guys don't want to do nothing about it so yeah people need to take it in their own hands
