Can hardly believe it. Bet the vote had something to do with the BLM protesters showing up at a council member's house.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/s...blm-rejects-police-defunding/ar-BB17ChqL

A majority of Seattle’s City Council on Wednesday voted down a proposal to slash the police department’s remaining 2020 budget by 50 percent.

The vote by the budget committee—which came one day after the city’s mayor and police chief held a press conference to criticize the proposal—was a setback for Black Lives Matter and anti-police brutality advocates who’ve pushed to defund departments across the U.S. and reallocate funds to community services, including housing and youth programs.

Gonna be some doxxing now...

Hell hath no fury like a liberal denied.

No really... but trying to inspire some Seattle tattoo artists.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

They know they pushed this too far.

BLM and Antifa have done themselves no favors. What people say publicly about support is drastically different than when they are off the record.

Our liberal governor is going to be facing a law and order sheriff in the general election.

No, Seattle is still working on 50% of their brain cells. He an Durkan are holding hand and skipping down the yellow brick road. Just look at the number of votes he's gotten so far.

True, but 48% of the voters in the primary were for someone else. I think it's going to be close in Nov, it's all going to depend on Culp getting the message out.

Yeah....they’re going with “only” a 30 or 40% cut. Lol.

Half of zero is....zero.

This stuff is going to backfire on the Left.

Trump got 5% of the vote in Seattle in 2016.
Seattle is as nutty as the Star Wars bar scene.



The median voter in WA state is still very liberal. We get gun control after gun control shoved down our throats via the initiative process.
We have Sound Transit voted in, that is $1.6B/year to make commuting worse with a toy train that steals car lanes.

I was one who didn't vote for Culp. I voted Eyeman just because I had bet the Seattle crowd would be more into him. I really like Culp, but I didn't think he had a chance.

I'd take big bird right now to get rid of inslee.

No disrespect but I seriously see no logic in this at all. There are two types of people in Seattle right now. People who have given a blood oath to Satan to vote for the Democrat. And people who are sick of the chaos and want law and order. There is no mushy middle in that city. And Culp IS THE LAW AND ORDER CANDIDATE. A vote for anyone else is splitting the non Democrat vote and possibly giving the election to that piece of garbage Islee. This is not a normal election. It's very binery and the electorate in that city are not diverse right now. It's a primal decision for them. It's either loyalty to the Democrat candidate or loyalty to the safety of their family and livelihoods. And the latter has an obvious candidate.

There's a video of folks pushing protestors back from the Seattle Police Chief's residence. Armed neighbors Shoulda formed 2 lines and guided the protesters right on in.

They didn’t grow half a brain cell, they merely listened to the other half of their one brain cell and realized they are chickenshit cock suckers. They are too cowardly to stand for anything and too helpless to stand against anyone. They are the ones that need the protection of their security force.

I'm quite familiar with Culp, he's in the neighbor county and I like what he ran on, but I never dreamed he'd have the steam he did. Eyeman is state famous for saving money and I bet that he'd be the favorite.

They have proven themselves liars, shameless panderers, and now, unprincipled cowards. Next they'll be admitting to diddling the local pet population,
