INSANITY: Seattle police stopped investigating new adult sexual assaults this year

Seattle police’s sexual assault and child abuse unit staff has been so depleted that it stopped assigning to detectives this year new cases with adult victims, according to an internal memo sent to interim police Chief Adrian Diaz in April.

More concern for women from the left. It seems like every day there is another sample of how throughly evil these people are. OF COURSE they want to take your guns.

Politics | Education or Indoctrination?

Seattle high school claims that 80 percent of its students identify as LGBTQ+, non-binary, or transgender

The school also decenters whiteness and patriarchy.

It’s pure Marxism.

“Through these cycles, we deconstruct systems of power and privilege and rebuild ourselves, our school, and our communities with different ways of being. By decentering whiteness, patriarchy, hetero- and cis-normativity, and able bodies, and by embracing neurodiversity, we are revisioning education communities as spaces where students’ needs are met, growth is the metric that matters, and behavior is understood as a form of communication.”
