CANCELLED: Coffee with a Cop

Wednesday, March 12, 2025


We want to address the current conversation (and negative feedback) surrounding Shoreline Police Department’s Coffee with a Cop event originally scheduled for March 26, 2025. 

The event has been canceled. It was neither the department's, nor the City’s, intent to make any community member feel unwelcome based on the selection of the event venue and the values that the venue may or may not hold. 

When planning future events, we will be more intentional with our venue selection.

Again, we are reaffirming our commitment to creating a thriving city that is Welcoming to All. Part of how we can do that is by listening to our community, taking feedback, be it negative or positive, and coming out better and stronger.

We listen.
We see you.
We hear you, Shoreline.

With Thanks,
City of Shoreline

Just wondering what the negative feedback is about? I would like to know is all!

The tolerant Left rear their ugly heads again in Shoreline. The PD picked the closest coffee shop to their station, and people were up in arms because of the personal values of the business owners. Not content to merely disagree with those values and move on, they made such a huge stink that the community outreach event was cancelled.

Shoreline has styled itself a "welcoming place for all" through official resolution. That claim has turned out to be pure farce, and the fault lies with many of our most bigoted neighbors.

"In this house, we believe" that we can declare others to be evil from a distance. The oppressive atmosphere of this place reminds me of Lubbock, TX, but the flip side of the coin. Seriously.

Intolerance of the intolerance of others is NOT the same as intolerance of people just trying to live their lives.

They were once a standing room only event in Seattle, but that was during the sane years, enjoy what you vote for.

Copaganda has no place in city affairs. Let the cops be cops and citizens be citizens and leave each other alone.
