If some random guy knocks on the door of the daycare I own and is like, “Where are the kids?” they’re getting the door slammed right in their face, and I am calling the police on them.
That is not normal behavior.

I have encountered a lot more racism on X, formerly known as Twitter in 2025 then I have in real life.

Just another reminder that the primary problem with Seattle law enforcement is that the officers they hire (usually not residents) have a deep and abiding contempt for the city’s residents fed by a steady Fox News diet. And their union chief embodies that.
Mike Solan, SPD guild president, issued a statement openly questioning the validity of the votes for Katie Wilson.
Solan's embrace of the far right & SPD's history of aggression could make a dangerous situation if the national guard is sent to #Seattle.

"In a prison system where more than 75 percent of employees are white and 73 percent of prisoners are Black or Hispanic, many of the incidents had racist overtones, inmates said, with white guards using racial epithets and other demeaning language during attacks"
A @nytimes.com investigation has found that state prison guards have been credibly accused of engaging in such behavior — putting inmates in restraints and then assaulting them — far more often than was previously known.

The previous executive Dow Constantine had written him off as not being a journalist and banned him from press events.
