Activists say Seattle police crowd control revisions fall short Joel Moreno © Provided by KOMO-TV Seattle SEATTLE - Community members are rejecting a series of changes Seattle police want to adopt in how they respond to protests and riots. Activists said the revisions will still allow officers to use excessive force during demonstrations and that the threshold for declaring a riot still remains too low. Another concern is that the police department wants to keep using most of its crowd control weapons, including blast balls and pepperball launchers, even though demonstrators said these devices are sometimes deployed indiscriminately. For their part, police said they need to be ready to respond to any situation and proper training and clear policies are the key.
