Elected Democrat MTA - has guts to admit defunding police was wrong

A city councilman in leftist Seattle in leftist Washington State is a Democrat with guts. He now openly disavows defunding the police. In effect, this guy has the self-respect to admit he was stupid in the past, but has learned his lesson. Authenticity is a rare trait among politicians; it takes a real man to admit he has learned from his former stupidity.

MTA - Makes the Adjustment

Darn few Democrat voters have dared to admit that they were wrong when they advocated for defunding the police. They are scarcer than hens teeth here on TNet.

The ones who admit they were wrong nearly always equivocate or attempt to deflect by saying something such as ‘MAGAs are Nazis’ or ‘Orange Man Bad.’

Yes indeed.

Both agencies remain, IMO, very corrupt.

The directors of both agencies are indeed influential, but are hardly in real control of the depths of their respective agencies.

and theres no corruption in police??

the whole defund the police thing was a mistep in what really needs to happen.
i was on here then saying it and still saying it now. the correct term should be "reform the police". theres a long list of things that needed to happen in policing, and many of them have happened, but there still needs to be more, like my tagline below

They knew it was a stupid idea. No one in their right mind actually thought these big cities would be better places with less law enforcement. It was a political stunt used for votes with the far left base. It them bit them in the behind as it should.

It lost votes for the Dems in the big picture though and it was always obvious for most it would, aside from the extreme Left.

Yep definitely lost votes for them. Just really dumb strategy and harmful to communities. I wish we could just get back to debating budgets, tax policies , etc and drop the brain dead social and racial crap. I think we are swinging back that way and a good for both parties if it happens.

Most didn't want to refund the police and it's super common for Dems to bash the refund the police concept. It doesn't take much guts.

The left loves it's criminals as they vote overwhelmingly Democrat. You'll notice that basically zero Dems have condemned the domestic terrorism campaign against Tesla and they certainly didn't condemn the summer of violence in 2020, they embraced it in fact. The only time they've even pretended to care about criminal activity was on J6 and that was only because they thought they could use it to drive a stake into Trumps political heart. They aren't serious people.

The vandalism of those cars shouldn't happen. It's stupid and they should not destroy cars. There you go. Moving on. Jan 6th was a disgrace to anyone who loves this country. I never saw you being critical of those Jan 6th rioters and cop beaters who ransacked our Capitol though.

And I doubt you can find many elected Dems who did as well.
