they literally took over a part of the city and fenced it in, it is heavily guarded and you somehow think this is okay in America.....wow
The police obviously abandoned the precinct because things were peaceful. They filmed a guy walking around with an ak47 in the middle of the blocked off area. The media had to change that narrative. It was on Twitter. If you argue this you aren’t an American. They just took over a six block area in the USA and said you can’t come in. While on some channels this has been described as an area of peace with food aplenty and love making abound. This is where you should abandon your party and say this is too much. I can say, I wish my president would put down the gosh damn twitter account. Melania should kick him in the balls if he tweets another f’ing thing. What if your place of business was in there and you have never done a thing to harm any race? Can you not see how this ends bad for everyone. Smgdh. Fme
Thanks. I had been trying to read multiple sources on what was going on and couldn't tell if they had blocked roads or the authorities had to try to limit the protest area. Yeah that is no good. If protestors/terrorists are blocking access and more than figuratively taking over space then they need to be arrested. I'm not confident the armed part is correct based on what I have read. I could be wrong about that though.
I can't believe you are asking that question. Let's start with the easy one which is extortion via asking the business owner to pay them.
Yep if that has happened then those need to be arrested immediately.
Vote weak, become weak. Completely leaderless and Washington St should be repeatedly shamed for it.
This one is great! You do away with #1 and you have absolutely no shot at #2 and #3
Yeah, I am not a supporter of Antifa. Not sure if you guys read any of my posts, but I am against extremism on both sides, and I do not support militant actions, both left and right. I am not for defunding the police. I do know that we have a problem with systemic racism in our country, and Police reform has to happen.
When you try to appease everyone you end up pleasing no one.
When you cave on law and order you invite chaos/unruliness.
Seattle is a great example of the end result of ultra leftwing government by the state and city of Seattle. It is literally political correctness gone wild.
True. If I allow my children to write on the walls of my home they'll have no qualms about writing on the walls of public buildings, etc.
Leaders permitting the perfect environment for violence. Some opposing whack job extremist group can go right in and basically cause whatever kind of altercation they want.
This is anarchy not not utopia or certainly not democracy. Most of these clowns have prolly been stoned to the bejeezus for years. Slight nuances and difference but you're too stupid to understand. That said this is similar to the sort of thing that happens in 3rd world countries led by lying presidents such as Trump Baby. What did you Far Righties expect after 4 years of the bullshit from the White House?
Got it. Trump is the reason a bunch of spoiled Millennials have effectively pulled off of a coup in Seattle. God forbid personal accountability come into play. After all, the Man is keeping them down.
He's always the reason. Governors, mayors, councilpersons - individuals in general - are exempt from all consequences of decision-making.
Where do you think the motivation comes from? If you say "leadership" then you'd be correct and Trump Baby is the worst "leader" in this nation's history. You got exactly what you voted for. Besides, we have zero idea about any of the people involved. We don't know their ages, backgrounds, education, family history.... NOTHING. I doubt we even really understand their politics. However, per usual, folks like you assume and jump to conclusions and want pull out you're guns on the flimsiest excuse because... YOU FEEL THREATENED AND MOSTLY BECAUSE YOU'RE JUST PLAIN SCARED. Relax. Let it play out. Not everything calls for the 82nd Airborne. Besides, a little revolution is a good thing.
Sorry. Total disregard for the rule of law is not a good thing. The entire premise of the US government is that "we are a nation of laws, not of men".
It is truly amazing that the mainstream media isn't covering this story at all, but it won't matter in the end. you can't hide the truth.
Don't look this way, sheeple!
You have a right to your opinion but the problem we're seeing isn't racism. It is Burnout, which affects every form of public works from health to policing. Burnout is something that affects veteran staff that is simply too emotionally beat-down that they are going through the motions and unable to feel anything towards perceived drug seekers or hypochondriacs.
Get on the Seattle Times. They are acting like it’s just a run of the mill peaceful protest. Wtf
When FOX had a reporter being screamed at wanting to know who he worked for, it was obvious to me these people are not concerned with perceptions of violence.
Well, I worked in homicide (forensic detective) and a deputy coroner. However, no matter how common it was to see this horrendous side of humanity, I never had it affect my job performance. I still have some PTSD from my US Coast Guard days where I witnessed children drowning or getting killed in boating accidents.
