Seattle politician who defunded the police called 911 to protect her from a crime she wants to legalize
[Post Millennial] A Seattle City Council Member who was at the forefront of the effort to defund the Seattle Police Department, called 911 Friday night for a crime that she is pushing to legalize.

As first reported by police sources to the neighborhood safety group Safe Seattle, Council Member Lisa Herbold called 911 and requested the police for criminal damage done to her home, a crime that the council member is pushing to legalize.

Allegedly a man threw a rock through Herbold's window. In a redacted police report, Herbold told responding officers that she "was on the west side of the living room near the kitchen when she heard a loud noise that sounded like a gunshot and dove into the kitchen for cover."

A witness said he saw an "…unathletic and a bad runner" leaving the scene. The suspect was described as a clean shaven, white male in a black hoodie and jeans.
All black? Sounds like Antifa/BLM.
The witnesses told officers that he would recognize the suspect if he saw him again, but declined the officer's business card to contact him for follow up. Ironically, Herbold is pushing for legislation that would make the alleged crime legal.

In October, Herbold, chair of the Seattle City Council's Public Safety Committee, introduced legislation to "…excuse and dismiss" almost all misdemeanor crimes committed in Seattle by "…persons with symptoms of addiction or mental disorder." At the time, Herbold was criticized for trying to sneak the legislation in as part of the budget cycle rather than through the normal legislative process and with no public discussion about the proposal.

#10 It's Daddy Issues all the way down.
Defund the Police because you're not the boss of me!
But when push comes to shove, it's Daddy, Daddy, Help me!

No, it's not logical. But facts don't matter any more. It's all about the feelz.
