Are you sure houses are in season? And not ducks or rabbits?

The police aren’t coming, but now in Seattle, they have a name for that

It’s well known that Seattle police are struggling to respond to 911 calls in a speedy manner. But the notion that “the cops aren’t coming” has become such a routine of city life that they’ve created a new way of tracking their nonresponsiveness.

It’s called the “Z protocol.”

#

A “supervisor will look at the notes on the call and make a decision whether the call will get a response,” a council analyst explained at the meeting. “Or whether the call will be cleared with what they call a ‘Z-disposition action.’ ”

Z-disposition, the analyst summarized, refers to “all calls that are essentially not answered by SPD due to a lack of resources.

Black Lives Matter!  well, except for all the Black people who are being murdered. And of course forget about the non-Black people who are being murdered, they don’t count at all.

Need some big weapons to hunt houses. I don't think an AR-15 will do it.

Apparently duck season.

My wife sent me an electronic father's day card that had an animation of making a wooden duck that then turned into a live duck.

I attend a largely Nigerian church.  They are anathema to American mainstream church sorts because they are far too conservative, particularly when it comes to the gheys.
