Author, columnist calls for taxpayers to start 'conscientious objector movement
The City of Seattle's hiring of a former pimp to act as the city's "street czar" and offer "alternatives to policing" is a "joke," author and columnist Mark Steyn told "Tucker Carlson Tonight" Wednesday.
Andre Taylor, an activist who was critical of the anarchist CHOP zone that sprung up in the city over the summer -- and who appeared on "Hannity" to support the father of a 19-year-old who was shot and killed in the area -- is being paid $12,500 per month to act as the aforementioned "czar," Tucker Carlson reported.
According to Steyn, Taylor is being paid more for his "non-job" than two dozen state governors.
“If you were seriously interested in any of the issues that have been roiling America for the last six months, you would not be appointing a pimp as a 'street czar' for 150 grand," said Steyn, who added that such hiring decisions explain the "permanent decline" of some American cities.
