End of an Insurrection
Mercifully, after twenty odd days, Seattle's "Summer of Love " has come to an end.
"Police issued the order to disperse around 5 a.m. local time Wednesday, telling protesters to leave within eight minutes. At least 31 protesters were arrested for failure to disperse, obstruction, resisting arrest and assault, police said ."

In the weeks that the six block area was left to the mob there were five shootings and two deaths. The media kept claiming it was "peaceful." The area was vandalized and lined with tents and filth. The East Precinct Station house, which the progressive mayor turned over to the mob was retaken. Barriers are either being dismantled or removed with heavy machinery. Residents are breathing a sigh of relief. People are coming out into the sunlight again. Law and order has been restored.
None of our resident progressives said one word about the outrageous surrender of a prime Seattle precinct to a vicious mob. We all got an idea of what is at stake in the coming election. America has a choice. It can live in a land of freedom and safety or we can live in a world of fear and violence dominated by BLM, antifa and progressive extremists with few rights and no safety other than keeping a gun at the ready.

I speak for many Americans: A big "thank you" to the Seattle Police Department.
Trump is off topic
Are the Bundy standoffs also off topic?
Not necessarily. Is there a relevant point?
Far right wingers carrying military weapons, marching into state houses makes me uncomfortable.
Is the topic the Bundy's? Aren't they old news by now?
What do the Bundy's have to do with a mayor who capitulated to a bunch of idiots?
What do the bunch of idiots in Seattle being finally forced to move have to do with the Bundy's?
If that's really the case, perhaps you should avert your eyes so you don't have to view anything so traumatic to you.
How many right wingers have the support of mayors and state DA's?
I'd like to see the comparison.
The not so esteemed mayor of Seattle is reaping what she has shown. About damn time!
Not yet! I'm waiting to see if they turn her out next election.
That would be progress! I don't think we have come that far yet, but a good dose of progressive governance goes a long way towards educating voters!
I'm still waiting for Texas to recall Sheila Jackson Lee
I think once the mayor attacked the protesters for daring to protest near HER home and putting HER family at risk, they hypocrisy became too much for even her to ignore. She didn't care about the shootings and assaults when they weren't near her family, but once the danger got close to home, protesters were suddenly a nuisance.
Just like the three city council members in Minneapolis who adamantly want the police defunded but demand taxpayers shell out $4,500 a day to private security firms to protect THEIR houses and families.
Democrats and communists play be the same rules. One set of rules for the poors and one for the elite. A tale as old as socialism.
I think they should get a taste of that. If a city is pushing to "defund the police" and you have a lot of people saying defund really means disband, then take the cops off the street for 24 hours. Don't answer calls, don't respond. Let the city handle all issues. They can see how their experiment works that way.
hey can see how their experiment works that way.
You've seen it play out in Baltimore where murders skyrocketed after the police went "fetal" in the wake of riots. Murders and shootings have skyrocketed in Chicago, where a DA doesn't punish people for carrying illegal guns (making a mockery gun laws and liberals call for more "gun control"). Cops are starting to do it there and June has been a bloodbath. Naturally as her city was looted and kids were being killed, the cop hating mayor had 75 police around her house.
It's insane and a reckless disregard for lives, because the kids killed in the forgotten parts of these cities don't have celebrity funerals, like the violent criminals whose deaths are politically exploitable do.
Exactly! As soon as they invaded her space she cracked down. She didn’t give a darn about who else they affected but when they protested in front of her house they went from asset to liability to her interests
I think the mayor would be best advised to resign immediately, pack up her belongings ASAP, and move to a undisclosed location out of state!
I agree, that seemed to be the turning point, not the killings.
Just like the three city council members in Minneapolis who adamantly want the police defunded but demand taxpayers shell out $4,500 a day to private security firms to protect THEIR houses and families.
You get an A+
Democrats and communists play be the same rules. One set of rules for the poors and one for the elite. A tale as old as socialism.
Yep, and it's about voting - democrats have to know who and what they are voting for. I hope the residents of Seattle learned from this.
Good, silliness like this needs to end now.
If what I read last night is true , the mayor is requesting one of the socialist seattle council members to be investigated for abuse of office during the chop season.....wonder if that council member told the protesters to set up outside the mayors abode?
Seattle City Council member Kshama Sawant joined a large group of protesters outside the CHOP zone who marched to Durkan's house on Sunday afternoon.
OK?
paybacks a bitch…and political payback is a bitch with PMS..
It will be interesting..
I sincerely hope those bunch of loser protesters next march on the house of the City Council member Kshama Sawant next! Then she too can see what happens when the shoe is on the other foot. I will laugh my head off when they do, just like I did when they marched to the mayor's residence...
The big problem is that there is no other side yet.
Things are beginning to turn around,
this just in:
Judicial Watch filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday demanding access to D.C.’s streets to paint its own messages, after the city painted Black Lives Matter on one street and allowed protesters to paint their own “Defund the police” message next to it.
The conservative group said it wants to paint its own motto, “Because No One is Above the Law,” on a street near its D.C. officers.
Judicial Watch said the city has turned its streets into a public forum for political expression by painting and allowing the other messages, which means that it cannot shut out other competing messages or else it runs afoul of the First Amendment.

She opened the door to unintended consequences or what goes around comes around
and looks like she spent taxpayer money to do it
A lot of people have political messages. If we are all equal JW wins that lawsuit!
I could say something about that, but I better not.
But your political message is always far, far, far right wing.
Only if your perception is far, far, far left wing!

They all bowed to the mob!
