You punish them for calling the police.

Enter the CAREN Act.

San Francisco supervisor introduces ‘CAREN’ Act to outlaw racially motivated 911 calls

San Francisco Supervisor Shamann Walton on Tuesday introduced an ordinance to outlaw racially motivated 911 calls.

The Caution Against Racially Exploitative Non-Emergencies, or
CAREN, Act could possibly result in people who call law enforcement based on racial bias facing criminal charges.

The ordinance is similar to state Assemblymember Rob Banta’s
(D-Oakland) Assembly Bill 1550, which also calls for consequences for those who call 911 based on biases toward race, class, outward appearance and religion.

During the Board of Supervisors meeting Walton said both measures “are part of a larger nationwide movement to address racial biases and implement consequences for weaponizing emergency resources with racist intentions.”

This is the Tweet in which San Francisco Supervisor Shamann Walton announced his act.

Racist 911 calls are unacceptable that's why I'm introducing the CAREN Act at today’s SF Board of Supervisors meeting. This is the CAREN we need. Caution Against Racially Exploitative Non-Emergencies. #CARENact #sanfrancisco

This is the associated press release.

Walton cited as examples of why this act was needed:

Recent incidents include a New York woman who called the police on a Black bird-watcher in Central Park; an Alameda, Calif., Black man who was arrested after a woman reported him for dancing in the street; and a San Francisco woman who called the police on a Filipino neighbor for writing “Black Lives Matter” in chalk in front of his house.

Except that in the Central Park case, the black man did arguably threaten her and as someone with a family in small business retail, counterfeiting is a legitimate concern.

The idea that these calls were purely racial prejudice and that there wasn’t an inkling of validity isn’t accurate, it’s narrative.

Do you see something suspicious?

You better not call the cops or it’s your ass that’s in trouble.

That is what the Councilman is going for, to intimidate people who are inclined to call the police into not calling the police on minorities.

This is an update to my earlier post Seattle aims to drive all educated professionals out of the city.

Councilwoman Kshama Sawant, the avowed Socialist, decided it would be a good idea to threaten Jeff Bezos over her new “Amazon Tax.”

After passing the "Amazon Tax," Seattle City Councilwoman Kshama Sawant went on this unhinged rant.

She threatens to seize control of the Fortune 500 and overthrow the "racist, sexist, violent, utterly bankrupt system of capitalism."

Jeff Bezos and the Amazon executives are just a tiny fraction of the people who will be affected by that tax.

It applies to anyone who makes more than $150,000 and works for a company with a $7 million payroll.  That is a lot of mid-career professionals in the Seattle area.

If you object to being hit with the “Amazon Tax” because you are far from the billionaire Jeff Bezos is and don’t have a bank account fat with startup IPO stock, welcome to how socialism works.

To the farmer with 20 cows, the farmer with 100 cows it a Kulak.  To the farmer with one cow, the farmer with 20 cows is a Kulak.

She and her minions will come for you.  That threat is crystal clear.

They want you dead or imprisoned, period.

If you read the whole tread, they are desperate wishing that the death rates spike to the stratosphere so they can be proved right and the obligatory poke at Trump.

Your life is worth nothing to them. I hope you have that very clear by now.

Thank you reader MiniMe.

Holy shit. You cannot fix stupid, specially when she believes she is righteous.

The tool she is displaying is a combination seat belt cutter and car window breaker.

I have one in my truck keychain and it is something anybody who drives by big bodies of water must have.  And yes, it is faster than your $500 tactical knife.

Little dumbass has not realized that anybody caught following her instructions, will probably get his ass shot once they break the glass and make an attempt or cuts the seatbelt INSIDE the car.  (IANAL warning)The expectation the driver will have is that the attacker means to cause death or grave bodily harm and that the use of deadly force may be a legal option, specially in states like Florida where Castle Doctrine extends to the vehicle.

Ouch.

Bloomington, Indiana. Protesters block a car by throwing a scooter in front of it. The passenger removes it and protesters jumps in front of the vehicle. He gets dragged away and injured.

Law enforcement, witnesses and videos posted on social media indicated the driver of a red Toyota Corolla heading north on Walnut Street stopped near Fourth Street, and a male passenger stepped out of the vehicle to remove an electric scooter in the road. Bloomington Police Department Capt. Ryan Pedigo said in a statement Tuesday that a 29-year-old woman stood in front of the vehicle with her hands on the hood of the car.
The car began to accelerate, causing the woman to go further onto the hood of the car, according to the statement. A 35-year-old man grabbed and clung to the side of the car as the driver sped rapidly north on Walnut Street. Both the man and the woman on the outside of the car fell off at the intersection of Walnut and Sixth streets as the driver turned right onto Sixth Street.

Driver strikes pedestrian after Bloomington rally, march over alleged racist assault

One thing I see is missing: The driver needs to call 911 the moment he is away and explain the situation. The way it is stated in the article, the police is searching for the car.

He Who Calls First and Does Not Want To #DefundThePolice Has  A Better Chance To Win.

Senator Duckworth,

Thank you for your service.

Now, you can go fuck yourself.

General George Washington was perhaps one of the greatest human beings who ever lived.

He risked his great personal fortune to lead the Continental Army, knowing that if he lost he would be drawn and quartered as a traitor.

He was begged to be king but refused that temptation to serve as President for two terms, then promptly retired back to civilian life at Mt. Vernon.

Thar is a man worthy of respect, a paragon of character.

To discuss tearing down statues and monuments to George Washington because at best you want to appease the mob or at worst you agree that Washington was little more that a slave holder whose memory should be desecrated is beyond the pale.

If you really want to have a discussion about getting rid of images of George Washington, you can start by tossing your Purple Heart in the trash, since it bears the obverse profile of the great man himself.

From the Seattle Times:

Seattle City Council passes ‘JumpStart’ tax on high salaries paid by big businesses

The Seattle City Council passed a new tax on big businesses Monday that’s expected to fund economic relief and core services during the coronavirus crisis and raise more than $200 million per year for housing, local business assistance and community development in the long term.

The “JumpStart Seattle” tax championed by Councilmember Teresa Mosqueda will target companies with highly paid employees, like Amazon.

“This is a huge win,” Mosqueda said. “This is about caring for Seattleites.”

So what are we talking about?  Millionaire C-suite executives at billion dollar companies?

Not if you know the types of commies that run that city.

Businesses with at least $7 million in annual payroll will be taxed 0.7% to 2.4% on salaries and wages spent on Seattle employees who make at least $150,000 per year, with tiers for various payroll and salary amounts. For example, a company with an $8 million payroll and one employee making $180,000 would pay a tax of 0.7% on $180,000 — or $1,260.

Oh… that’s a moderate sized company.  That’s 70 engineers making $100,000 each.  That’s not huge.  That’s easily a moderate law office or medical center.

A salary of $150,000 is also not terribly high for an educated professional.  A senior engineer, lawyer, doctor, physicians assistant, dentist, CPA, all could clear that by mid-career.  If this includes comissions and bonuses, which it probably does, it’s going to burn realtors too.

Also, the Black Lives Matter movement has stirred up Seattle politics, and a “Tax Amazon” campaign put pressure on the council by threatening to take a proposal to the November ballot.

The JumpStart tax is tailored so that most of the money will be paid by those companies that are best able to shoulder the load, proponents said.

Sawant credited the “Tax Amazon” movement and called the measure a “victory for working people,” while Morales described Monday’s vote as “a crucial step to embrace equity and reject corporate influence” and said organizations led by Black residents should be consulted about the investments to come.

It’s sold as “fuck those millionaire and billionaire tech moguls in their huge companies.”

In reality it’s “fuck that modest architecture firm, law firm, clinic, etc. and just about every white collar professional who works there over the age of 40.”

Do you think those people are going to stay in Seattle.

The cops ignore the damage being done by the looters and not they have to pay more in taxes to repair that damage.

Nope, they are going to flee.

If you think those same people will stand to be cut free and made into contractors (the logical extension of this policy) paying self employment taxes and their own health insurance, that will make them flee twice as fast.

Watch as every educated professional in the city packs up.

I wonder how the city will feel when hospitals in Seattle are depleted of doctors and any medical staff making $150k or more?

On the heels of destroying law enforcement in Seattle, this is just another nail in that city’s coffin.
