About Seattle Nice
It’s getting harder and harder to talk about politics, especially if you disagree. Well, screw that. Seattle Nice aims to be the most opinionated and smartest analysis of what’s really happening in Seattle politics available in any medium. Each episode dives into contentious and sometimes ridiculous topics, exploring perspectives from across Seattle's political spectrum, from city council brawls to the ways the national political conversation filters through our unique political process. Even if you’re not from Seattle, you need to listen to Seattle Nice. Because it’s coming for you. Unlike the sun, politics rises in the West and sets in the East.

I don't think anyone in Seattle is currently saying that the police should not be involved. Lead certainly isn't saying that. Davida Briscoe, the former gun violence advisor to Bruce Harrell, is not saying that. But they're saying, how do we integrate all these things? And is focused deterrence a part of that? Or would that be essentially a waste of money? Because if the conditions do not pertain here that make focused deterrence an effective strategy, then it would be a waste of money. […]
