A city or a society can’t be run based on accusations of racism. But here we are. Everything is racist and therefore no bad behavior can ever be dealt with. Just the boojum of ‘white privilege’ which is always everywhere and, like all imaginary things, nowhere.
Welcome to Seattle, where busting Asian brothels is racist because well… everything is racist.
Immigrant rights advocates demanded the city of Bothell investigate its police department for “anti-Asian violence” on Monday, about one week after investigators raided five massage parlors suspected of allowing prostitution.
During a rally outside Seattle’s King County Jail, advocates accused Bothell police of targeting the businesses, traumatizing owners and employees in the process.
“You’re patting your own back for solving fabricated issues based on your own sexist, racist ideas, and Asian massage workers are paying the price,” rally organizer Lee Chen said.
In a phone call Monday afternoon, Bothell police Capt. Mike Johnson said “there might have been a misunderstanding” by advocates about the investigation.
Officers executed search warrants at the five properties after investigators presented probable cause to believe prostitution was happening there, Johnson said. Last Tuesday, police found “indications of illicit activity” inside all five parlors, including lubricant, condoms and employees dressed in lingerie, he said.
Inside one business, Johnson said, officers found a female employee with a “male solicitor” who both confirmed they had been interrupted during a sex act.
“When we asked, ‘Did you guys agree to a payment for that?’ they said, ‘Yes,’” Johnson said.
But what does that prove anyway?
