Socialist Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson is facing some serious backlash after two men were caught on the city's Real Time Crime Center surveillance cameras beating a 77-year-old man completely unprovoked. According to Andy Ngo, a suspect was arrested and then promptly released back onto the streets.

As Ngo noted, pro-illegal alien groups have been urging the mayor to ban the cameras. End Wokeness posted the video of the incident, overlaid with Wilson campaigning against the cameras, saying that they "could potentially be taken control of by the Trump administration" and put immigrant and refugee communities at risk.

So the safety of a violent criminal matters more than a 77 year old victim? This is peak insanity. Protecting a predator over the public because of optics is why our cities are decaying.

Insanity in full display. Terminal ignorance. Civilizational suicide. This mayor should be removed from office. She has no idea how to be Mayor. She thinks and governs like a child.

All those woke ass politicians need to be jailed and held with no bond for protecting the criminals more than their citizens. Period.

Refugees risk being caught committing a crime and deported. We really are living in a dystopian society.

How do they always manage to go from bad to very, very much worse?

They did it in New York, they did it in Chicago, and they did it in Seattle.
The Left wanted cameras because they claimed they would show how racist everything was. Then the cameras showed the truth - that we have a real problem with violent, repeat thugs - and now the cameras have to go away. When reality doesn't match their theory, Leftists deny reality

RIP SEATTLE. You’re done for. Elections have consequences. Do better next time.

The same people who were screaming for body-cams and CCTV’s everywhere are NOW complaining because they cannot hide what they really are

@MayorofSeattle You're worried about the wrong people. Your constituents are your ONLY priority

She's worried President Trump is going to hack into the camera system and turn the data over to ICE.
The Left wanted bodycams, too, until they didn't. Here's the suspect on bodycam saying, "Yeah, I know Katie."
