The #1 reason cops are panicking around “defunding” police to fund social services is because it’ll show how obsolete they’ve become. We will decriminalize every nonviolent crime (less than 1% of 911 calls are for violent crimes) and pay social workers to respond instead of cops.

Police Officers are NOT Blue Collar workers. Seattle PD can make over $130k/year and own homes in nice suburbs right outside of the city. I think it’s mostly generational and it’s important to help our elders understand this. It’ll help people understand #DefundThePolice

Trader Joe's Capitol Hill (next to #CHOP ) workers informed management that they would be participating in the 6/12 BLM protest. It was approved. Trader Joe’s corporate got upset and decided to immediately close store indefinitely. #Seattle Their petition—

The way white pro-bikers shit on POC commuters who have no choice but to drive cause displacement got them living 90 min from their jobs pisses me tf off. Not everyone can bike 20 min to work with showers waiting for them.

. @amazon ’s hometown has one of the nation’s worst homelessness problems. But instead of using its technology and wealth to fix it, Seattle has developed an app that empowers the white upper-class to kick out their homeless. My latest in @TheAtlantic

Just a reminder that SPD only administered a drug blood test for Jaahnavi, not the cop going 50 over the limit. The cop driving 74mph in a 25mph zone just got a back door “evaluation” conducted by the VP of Seattle’s Police Union. Same guy caught laughing at Jaahnavi’s death.

The officer was traveling at 74 miles per hour in a 25 mph zone just before his police cruiser hit Jaahnavi Kandula in January.

I was upset from the moment @Mariners staff started harassing us but what sent me over was when this manager put me on trial in front of our whole section. He turned our section into a grand jury and dehumanized us. If this is really the “policy” it needs to change immediately.

The manager is now interrogating me after i made an official complaint with customer service and demanded I prove it happened. Said he had to “interview” the people sitting around me. They all obviously confirmed my story. @Mariners racially profiling me and now embarrassing me.

Trader Joe’s Cap Hill (17th & Madison) called cops on Black Trans Womxn after claiming she stole 2 ITEMS. Workers tried to pay for it/begged management not to involve police. Manager Jimmy called anyway and jumped into patrol car to identify her. 5 cops showed up to arrest her.

Seattle Police Officers are making over 300k a year. There are so many ways to #DefundThePolice and salaries should be the first ones to target. Remember this when someone tries to tell cops belong to the working class. They are the rich elite.

Please stop calling the cops during situations that don’t require cops. Especially on Black and Indigenous people. Violent crime dropped over 71% since the early 90’s and less than 2% of calls made to police is for violent crimes. Finding alternative solutions will save lives.
