This dire situation is really the fault of the residents who continue to allow Liberal leaders to lead them astray. The stage three emergency concerns the police. Seattle has such a bad shortage that they can’t afford to lose a single officer or they won’t be able to properly police their population. As it is they are getting everyone to answer 9-1-1 calls, even detectives.
“In what the president of Seattle’s Police Guild calls an “unprecedented move,” the department moved to “Stage 3” operations Wednesday.
That means detectives and other non-patrol units will serve as first responders to 9-1-1 calls.
The department has already lost more than 300 officers in the past year, and hundreds more could face termination next week if they don’t comply with the vaccine order.
The SPD staffing crisis has become so dire, police union president Mike Solan is warning about what’s next, as the department mobilizes to “Stage 3″—an emergency scenario because of a shortage of officers.”
“At this point, every member of the SPD, regardless of their normal assignment, is coming to work in uniform and ready to hit the streets if required. And according to the Police Guild, it’s still not enough. They’ve already lost more than 300 officers in the past year.
The timing couldn’t be worse because the deadline is approaching on Monday for all police officers to obey the executive mandate that they receive the COVID vaccine or be placed on extended leave without pay. To date, 98 officers are in the process of seeking exemptions. Another 186 haven’t turned in any paperwork regarding their vaccination status. Since exemptions have rarely been granted, this potentially puts the city at risk of losing more than 250 additional officers this week, and they simply can’t absorb that sort of loss.”
What a waste of a detective’s time. They are supposed to be finding missing people and arresting murderers, but instead, because of foolish Libs, they are being turned back into traffic cops.
Seattle wouldn’t be having this problem at all if they had just supported the police, ya know the people that put their lives on the line to ensure the safety of others daily. But instead, these Seattle Liberals turned their backs on the police and screwed themselves over in the process.
