    Whatever you do, don’t point a high powered laser directly at the cameras you might burn out the CCD sensor, permanently disabling it and we wouldn’t want that now would we?

      I know it’s sarcasm, but it’s genuinely chilling how much Seattle is pretending to care about people while targeting the exact same people

      SPD is surveilling the same people the Trump administration is targeting. The Trump administration can access the camera footage.

      And from the linked article, Seattle Must Repeal Mass Surveillance Expansion To Protect People from Trump:

      Mayor Harrell and City Council’s response to the Trump administration so far is all talk, no action. They have issued a tepidly worded letter addressed to no one, a useless bill saying Seattle will follow the existing State Shield law, a resolution proclaiming councilmembers love SPD, and held panel discussions. If Mayor Harrell and the City Council actually want to protect us from the Trump administration, they must start taking action, including a repeal of the mass surveillance they approved last year.

    This will be the future of every metropolitan city. Wait until the robot police are dispatched to apprehend the criminals.

    We’ll do anything to not treat the cause of problems. Why help the homeless when you can just make it illegal to sleep anywhere. Out of sight, out of mind.
