    Nah, the seattle PDs MO would be to target the gay clubs but then also “inspect” several straight clubs to cover it up.

    Its a police department that’s been under a federal consent degree for over a decade due to racist policing and excessive force. Its the police department whose second in command of the union was recently recorded joking about how little a young indians woman’s life was worth after a cop just recklessly killed her with his car going 74 in a 25. Its a department that illegally hung a “trump 2020” flag in the same break room they were displaying trophies from black lives matter protests. A department that directly maced a small child during said protests, along with hundreds of other brutal and unjustified actions. The same department whose last chief mysteriously lost a great sum of official conversations with the the mayor and the head of the police union during the protests. The previous mayor and head of the police union also strangely “lost” those legally public conversations.

    They get no reasonable doubt because they have failed to live up to that standard too many times.

      Don’t forget the cop who tweeted “black lives splatter LOL” after a woman was killed at one of the BLM protests.

      Or the lieutenant who asked everyone to refer to him as Obergruppenführer and had Nazi memorabilia in his office. And yes, that was the local sheriff’s department not Seattle PD, but still…
