Seattle to use illegal migrants to bolster depleted police force
2024-06-19
[DM] Americans have seen how the Communists in power in Seattle treat the police - as scapegoats and pinatas
Seattle has become the latest Dem-run city trying to replace an exodus of police officers with illegal migrants.

Washington's largest city has just 913 cops to serve its 750,000 people after losing 725 officers in the last five years.


Now its police department has tweaked the rules to allow applications from migrants who crossed the border illegally as children and are registered on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), or 'Dreamers', program.

And under a law change signed by Democrat Governor Jay Inslee in February they can be chosen above an equally qualified candidate if they speak more than one language.

More than 500,000 people in the US registered under the Obama-era DACA program before it was rescinded by Donald Trump in 2017.

While they are allowed to work in the US under a renewable two-year work permit, restrictions on carrying firearms had previously barred them from police work.

But in a memo last year the Justice Department stated that 'DACA recipients can possess duty firearms and possess ammunition as part of their official law enforcement officer duties'.

#9  The "law" now is simply a set of rules used to punish anyone not onboard with the communist narrative. Who better to enforce sham civility than illegal cops? Next up, stunning increases in disappearances and kidnappings.

#7  Illegal migrants will become cops? I think the key word here is illegal but I thought cops were supposed to enforce the law. The idea must be that they will do whatever the commies want and to hell with the law. Seattle will become a damn good place to avoid.

#5  This will lead to a cataclysmic clash of oppressed classes. Do illegal aliens become oppressors once they join the police force? This is going to confuse the hippies.

Perhaps you have noticed, your Mex lawn service only hires Mex.
