As Citizens Need 911 More Than Ever, Police Chief Tells People To Use It To Report Hate Speech

Judging by the way Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best just encouraged citizens to use the 911 emergency system to report name-calling, you might think the state of Washington is untouched by the coronavirus pandemic.

The situation is quite the contrary, however, as the state had nearly 8,000 confirmed cases of COVID-10 and 343 deaths as of Monday, according to Johns Hopkins.

As incredible as it sounds, in the face of such a crisis, Best is urging victims of supposed “hate ” to use the 911 emergency calling system to report that their feelings have been hurt.

“We will document and investigate every reported hate crime,” the police chief says. “Even racist name-calling should be reported to police. We take this information very seriously. If you aren’t sure if a hate crime occurred, call 911. We are here to help.”

This is leftist lunacy on full display as Best fiddles while Rome burns, or, in this case, urges people to tattle on one another to 911 operators while their fellow citizens are literally gasping for...
