Leftist Politician Decides Cleaning Poop Off Seattle's Streets With A
Pressure Washer Is Racist

Even though the courthouse and plenty of Seattle's streets are covered
in human fecal matter thanks to the socialist policies that have pushed
people into poverty, a democrat has decided the streets cannot be
cleaned up using a pressure washer. Using this method to get the feces
off the streets is racist said city council member Larry Gossett in a
tweet.

The King County courthouse in downtown Seattle is located near the
social service centers and several homeless shelters. A tent city has
sprung up in the little park outside. There have been several assaults
on courthouse employees, and even two attacks on jurors In May and June,
leading to citizens summoned for jury duty to voice concerns about their
safety, according to a report by RT.

Judges Laura Inveen and Jim Rogers, backed by King County Sheriff John
Urquhart, asked the county to do something about the violence and the
fecal matter that continues to pile up, the Seattle Times reported last
month. Among their requests was a daily power-wash of the sidewalks,
which "reek of urine and excrement."

Bu Councilmember Larry Gossett objected to the measure because
power-washing "brought back images of the use of hoses against
civil-rights activists," according to the Seattle Times.

Seattle is trying to figure out how to clean poop off their streets
but A Democrat Councilman doesn't like the idea of using a pressure
washer hose because it reminds him of hoses used against civil rights
activists...

You can't make this stuff up. Insane.https://t.co/fxqdvmRYa2

High-pressure water hoses were used by police in Birmingham, Alabama
against civil rights protesters back in 1963. They have also been used
to wash sidewalks in most American cities on a daily basis ever since,
without being accused of racism - until now. We have democrats to thank
for the ridiculous and unending racism that's lingering.

This is 2019 when everything is racist - the New York Times says so
- and anyone who doesn't call it out is assumed to be an enabler,
according to the rules of the "woke" cancel culture. So, the sidewalks
of Seattle must remain covered in human waste, lest someone gets
offended. -RT

"Gossett's concern here is nothing short of insane," wrote Kat Timpf in
National Review. "What else are you going to do - not wash them? Because
I really, really reject the idea that leaving sidewalks covered with
human bodily waste is the less offensive move in this (or any)
situation." And many on Twitter agreed that Gossett's view was insane.

These people have serious mental issues. They shouldn't be running
anything. ?

Gossett claimed pressure washers were racist in 2017, however, it's
2019, the streets are still filled with human poop and the solution from
democrats is to not wash them. Because racism. This is now our dystopian
reality.
