Seattle will reduce its police department's budget by around $3million and reallocate some money to community programs after the City Council voted Tuesday evening to override Mayor Jenny Durkan's vetoes of adjustments to this year's budget.
The council's proposals approved last month were supported by demonstrators who have marched in the city for months following the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis but were strongly opposed by the mayor and former police Chief Carmen Best.
Measures passed by the council will cut about $3million of the department's $400million annual budget this year. The cut represents about 1 per cent of the annual budget.

You notice how young they look, this is an example of people not paying attention to who they vote for in local elections.
This will probably drive more people from the city centers to more conservative areas where crime will be lower and life will be safer
Look at those 3 guys. BLM could come to a restaurant they are dining at, grab their beverage, drink most of it, spit in the cup, demand that the councilman drink it and he would.
Why cannot we deport the council woman back to India. We could pay the Indians 100 million dollars and it would be worth every penny. We would at lest break even on all the death and destruction that bitch causes.
Kshama Sawant
There is only one excuse for her. That is India and the USA are both fucked upm but that she has a chance to fix things in America whereas in India she would claim she would have no chance.
Kshama, this this ugly thing, came over to then US for studies, stayed and started bitching about the US. Cuz we all know India is a near utopia.
Bitch needs to be deported.
There's something to be said when women rule
Tyranny spreads
Lies are rampant
And violent crime is cheered on and encouraged by them, as long as it's targeting their opponents
Vote them all out
The feminist experiment of tyranny and class warfare against men is over
No more sexism
No more feminism
No more women entitlement programs
No more unfair and intolerable marriage and alimony laws
If we are equal then also no more laws to promote you over other genders
It's grotesque
Decades of entitlement programs and this is what we get
Judgemental creatures unable to lead
The women in my family seem to be levelheaded. In the extended family there are a few whack jobs, but no more than usual for a population male, female or male and female.
Although some people did asset that giving women the right to vote would lead to the expansion of welfare and the end. It is an argument worthy of inspection. I would say it is a valid argument.
"Police later identified one suspect as Democrat Rep. Attica Scott who is the author of “Breonna’s Law.” She was out rioting with her daughter.
This is the modern day Democrat Party."
@ Breonna hung out with a gun and drug runner.
@ A person was found dead (homicide) in a car Breonna rented.
@ Did Breonna's boyfriend use her as a meat shield?
@ Did Breonna's boyfriend shoot at police, duck behind her and then ran into a room leaving her to face the return fusillade?
@ it was a knock warrant. Police announced themselves. Drug runners Breonna and her boyfriend did not answer the door. Did this give them time to flush the drugs?
@ Liberals news papers lied and said Breonna died in her sleep? Did Breonna sleep in her hallway?
But in the month before the raid, she was turning her life around or so said the attorney for her family who was looking for a payday.
Liberals fucking suck.
Indeed, editor. They were, after all, elected.
These kids are not what built the country though in some scenarios some could adjust if they had to I should think.
Nonetheless I wouldn't want them in my foxhole.
