Kshama Sawant is adversarial with police and it will come back to haunt Seattle

Seattle Council Member Kshama Sawant is following the same path that led to the police shootings in Dallas.

I find it unspeakably upsetting that a Seattle City Council woman would decide to take people that openly hate our police officers to a police precinct to yell at  our officers.

Seattle homeless, kids and a brutal reality

You could call this Seattle wackiness. Or brush it off by saying Seattle is just weird. But if you’re a parent, how do you explain to your kids that our leaders Sawant, Ed Murray and Tim Burgess are now parading around with people that say the police — purposefully and with hatred and racism in their hearts go out to — kill people of color.  

They stand with so-called activists who describe our police officers as militarized white supremacists, and their proposed headquarters as an icon to white supremacy.  They want young people to believe that there is a war on blacks — that African Americans are being hunted by rogue police officers. And this sentiment can affect people with mental disorders, as it did in Dallas. 

So this is very serious. 

I say to our police officers, you should go on strike. You likely won’t because you’re men and women of honor. But I think you should to show this city what happens when we don’t have police officers. But since you don’t want to put people’s lives at risk, maybe you should just go on strike on Capitol Hill where Ed Murray lives.

And to the voters in Seattle, you’re voting for a woman, Sawant, who hates police officers. 

We need to let our officers know that we support them and appreciate them. And that we don’t stand with Kshama Sawant.
