We know we're in a police state b/c educators, hospital workers, social workers, shelter staff, farmers, caregivers and artists would fall out dead from shock if they were valued that way.
Seattle will now pay experienced police officers up to $15,000 in bonuses to join @SeattlePD. They’ll also pay new recruits up to $7,500. What do you think? Read more here: bit.ly/2EOU3l6
