Hypocrite Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan allowed left wing protestors to harass other people’s neighborhoods, but she had the police crack down on the protestors when they came to her own neighborhood

Hypocrite Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan allowed left wing protestors to harass other people’s neighborhoods, but she had the police crack down on the protestors when they came to her own neighborhood.

During the time that Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan allowed left wing protestors to forcefully take over the neighborhood known as CHAZ (or CHOP), during the time period from June 2 to June 30, crime in that neighborhood increased by 525%, compared to the same time period during the previous year.

This includes two murders that happened in CHAZ during that time period this year, whereas the normal number of murders in that area during that time period is zero.

All the while that this was going on, Durkan did nothing to stop the left wing protestors who had forcefully taken over CHAZ.

But then the left wing protestors came to Mayor Durkan’s own neighborhood, and all of a sudden, Durkan decided to use the police to stop them.

Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkanis an extreme hypocrite for doing this. She allowed them to harass other people’s neighborhoods, but she got upset when they came to her own neighborhood.

Shame on Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan!

James Altucher made this excellent comment on Mayor Durkan’s hypocrisy:

Let’s see: six shootings, two teenage deaths, and @MayorJenny still says “it’s an arts festival”. THEN, the CHAZ threatens to take over her 5,000 sq ft house worth $7.6 million after her new addition. A DAY LATER, she brings in the police, “end the chaos!”

Perfect example of something I’ve been saying for a long, long time. Go to every major city, most/if not all of them Blue, and for all the poor areas you’re will find the 2 or 3 where all the affluent, WHITE, LIBERAL, HIPSTERS live. The ones that support all this crap from the sidelines, with their donations and with their checkbook.

They support open borders as long as none of those coming across the border do more than clean the house, mow the lawn, clean the gutters.

Every kid should get the best education possible as long as no one from the ghetto or from south of the border goes to school with their kids.

Everyone should have free and the best medical care, as long as they don’t go to the same hospitals as they do.

Some will even tell you that although they don’t agree with everything in the Bill of Rights ... they don’t like guns ... they’ll ALWAYS vote for the candidates that want to shred the Bill of Rights.

Hypocrites to the Nth Degree.

Also, the mayor’s actions of allowing the protests have resulted on several direct deaths, which she has not taken responsibility for.

I believe she is a sociopath.

And the real problem? The police blindly obeyed when they were told both to not protect the people but to only protect the mayor. Who is the real enemy?

Well, it isn’t worth that any more...thanks to her.

The whole fiasco was Animal Farm on parade, in living color, streamed live to the entire world.

Thankfully, the 'experiment' only survived about 3 weeks total. It basically collapsed on itself -- a complete failure -- as it devolved into what it was supposedly protesting against.

This sort of answers the question; “will law enforcement follow unconstitutional orders?”

I think the order of priority is as follows...
1- be sure to make it back home to your family each night. “Stay safe” being the most often used phrase among LEOs
2- be sure to get paid regularly, to support your family
3- follow orders after the first two are secured

I’m absolutely pro LEO, but time will tell where the majority will stand when faced with a constitutional dilemma crisis of conscience.

The ‘roid-rage-rangers’ are a known value. That small percent of ego inflamed will delight in being punishers with impunity. It’s the remaining 90+% who are the unknown value.

This is why it is very important to elect constitutional Sheriffs in each County.

Most excellent organization...

Isn’t it also true that she only cleaned out CHOP/CHAZ after they demonstrated in front of her house?

It is absolutely clear where the majority of LEOs stand when it comes to following Unconstitutional orders. They blindly follow. And, that has been the norm throughout history and in every society.
