This article is beyond stupid. The author spends a thousand words or more whining without once mentioning either budgets or civilian oversight of the police force. It's like the policy was created from thin fucking air, for no reason at all! A cursory googling found this: In the weeks before Monday's formal unveiling, McGinn released several details of his 2012 proposal, which will now be scrutinized by the City Council. Councilmembers, who will pass a final plan in November, have already indicated they're leery of the mayor's idea to reduce the Seattle Police Budget by $2.4 million by keeping 26 sworn officer positions vacant. [1] Wow, is there a possibility that could be related? I actually don't know; I don't live in seattle and I don't really care. But a minimal amount of effort for his readers would be asking the police chief or PR person why this policy was created.
