Washington Seattle is now the PC police

[Nick Burkhardt]

Seattle has seemingly reached a new height of political correctness, this time mandating that suspects are referred to as "community members."

Seattle police must now refer to suspects as 'community members'

[Flymph]

That's going to get confusing, quickly.

I suppose I'll never want to be considered a community member again.

 

[Andy54Hawken]

When you step out of the bounds of a "Community"... Then you should no longer be apart of the community... Until you can " Learn to play well with others" , so to speak.

What the hell is wrong with calling things , what there are?
A suspect is still innocent until proven guilty ... I don't see a reason for a name change.

Oh wait ... if we change the name of something we find unpleasant ... Suddenly its much better and more pleasant with its new name...

What a useless standard for an already overworked Law Enforcement Officer.

Alleged community member until convicted and they move to a Gated Community.

Yeah, one of the things about the Seattle mindset that makes me wonder. I guess a rose by any other name is still a rose? Need more coffee!

 

[Andy54Hawken]

Is that more "coffee" or more of that dark , rich aromatic , nectar of the bean , a gift of the Morning Goddess , drink ?
Since we are in the land of re-naming Everydamnthing!

[Pops1911]

Yep, start renaming everything and then no one can communicate at all. I am getting way too old to learn another new language! I think of coffee as the gift that keeps on giving.

 

[Certaindeaf]

Kinda like our bubblegum feature.. bubblegummers!

 

[Ranoca]

I'm offended by bubblegum and feel it should be renamed. If you need me, I'll be in the safe zone of this board...

 

[Stomper]

Nothing more than progressive "virtue signaling" that's conceived in hauty pride, perpetuated by arrogance, and ultimately feasted upon by evil beasts.

I'm surprised they haven't put a giant rainbow condom on the space dradle.. yet.

I'm surprised they haven't put a giant rainbow condom on the space dradle.. yet.

That's a spunky idea .... Wait , can I say that?...

[Stomper]

Clean-up on isle three! Bring a mop and a whole LOT of gym socks....

 

[EPS]

So they call suspect a community members so does that mean the jail is now called the community center and the prison is called the retirement home

 

[Brutus57]

Seattle's stupidity clearly knows no bounds. Just more needless garbage on comms that will increase the threat and response time to help the "real" community members.

[nilknarf]

so if suspects are now "community members", does that mean that as a member of my community, I'm now suspect?

 

[etrain16]

Okay, we're going to need names for community members that actually get convicted, so, here is my proposed list:

* Rapist - Random Penetration Specialist
* Burglar - De-Cluttering Consultant
* Murderer - End-of-Life Provider
* Peeping Tom - Private Investigator
* Flasher - Performance Artist
* Gang Member - Group Counselor
* Car Thief - Automobile Relocation Assistant
* Politician - Piece of Sh1t
