Pete Serrano, Republican candidate for attorney general in Washington State is running on a public safety platform. As part his campaign he's been taking walks through various cities in Washington highlight crime, drug use, and other public safety issues. This weekend, he was in Seattle and posted several videos with a concerned local business woman walking around town discussing various problems.

This exchange happens as they are walking along in front of an entrance of a light rail station:

Serrano: Do you want to go down?
Woman: Oof.
Serrano: Do you not want to go down?
Woman: Well, I'm with you guys. But uh,
Serrano: If you're not comfortable we don't have to go down.
Woman: No, it is good. I am with you guys. I'm telling you, you need to see this.

The camera zooms in to show us what is making the woman uncomfortable. It is a guy sitting by himself on a bench about 20 yards away. A Black guy.

He never shows the thing she says we need to see down on the platform. I guess they couldn't find any Black people down there.
