Trump vows no ‘Autonomous Zone’ in DC, after protesters cleared
Fox News ^ | June 23, 2020 | Ronn Blitzer

President Trump vowed Tuesday that what happened in Seattle will not take place in the nation's capital, and that no such "autonomous" zone" will be established in D.C. after protesters who attempted to set up such a space were cleared out the night before.

Demonstrators on Monday had blocked off an area that they called the "Black House Autonomous Zone," or "BHAZ."

"There will never be an 'Autonomous Zone' in Washington, D.C., as long as I’m your President. If they try they will be met with serious force!" Trump tweeted Tuesday morning.

~snip~

Protesters also had defaced and attempted to tear down a statue of Andrew Jackson near the White House, and the historic St. John's Episcopal Church, often called the Church of the Presidents, was vandalized with "BHAZ" spray-painted on its pillars.

That is true. I just posted the headline from the news channel’s feed... Since Trump drew another one of his red lines, they should act up by nightfall, either here or elsewhere, I would think.

They’re now interviewing the Queen of Water like she’s some kind of hero.
I also see they’ve set up port-a-potties for them, too (that they’ve scrawled “fuck cops” and “black girls matter” on). I wonder if we’re going to bring in some catered meals for them too. After all, leftist agitators get hungry just like real people.

I have loved that statue since I first saw it when I was 8 years old. I am now 64. Whenever I jog past it, I stop and admire it before continuing on. Also love Saint John’s church...the building, if not the liberal theology.

The district of columbia should be federal terrority, governed by the federal government. See the Constitution, according to which IT IS. But it isn’t, in practice. It’s just a democrat-controlled failure.

It should not become a state.

It should not become a state.

I couldn't agree more, any DC resident wanting to live in a state can move to one.

The narrative is totally wrong!

And with many voices, we really now need to prejudicially, fight for the narrative!

Thanks to the NEAR UNCHECKED anti-American Marxist globalist DNC revolutionaries, and their media/press gods apparatus, the left has now shifted the narrative SO FAR LEFT, many kids and adults in society now really believe all acts of violence within a “protest” are somehow an acceptable “civil right”, which now permit the right to violently riot, destroy public and private property, block safe passage and travel, block economy, beat, steal, assault, rape, and kill, both citizens and police!

And to deny these truly evil and violent and destructive crimes, is to deny their “civil right”!

Now the term “Autonomous Zone” is being fundamentally and genetically welded to what is already a truly immoral, violent, and terminally perverted “civil right” of UNLAWFUL AND ILLEGAL “protest”, as they really only mean to violently destroy and kill everything, eliminate all recourse to actual justice, and to enslave all of society to them — PERIOD !

NO ONE has even the “right” to just block PUBLIC property from the rest of the public.

NO ONE has the “right” to block PRIVATE property from its owners.

NO ONE has the “right” to shut down public and private means of safe passage or travel.

NO ONE has the “right” to offensively threaten and endanger lives.

NO ONE has the “right” to shut down public and private commerce and livelihoods.

NO ONE has the “right” to destroy public taxpayer purchased monuments, parks, buildings, and services.

The only moral and lawful times violence may need to take place, or be permitted, is IN THE MOMENT of defending the innocent against a crime, punishing real criminals (those who acted to endanger and harm the innocent, like the left is doing to the innocent now a CD Ross America), and when the government acts against the fundamentally moral and basic Constitutionally defined protections of our liberty, in their effort to enslave us.

We didn’t want any of this, our corporate multi generational compromise with the left has brought us to where we are, and NOW we must fight, or we and our children will for the rest of their short and enslaved lives, be subjugated to the lefts Marxist Communist totalitarian slavery.

And what we are now staring face to face with, IS the same left-wing strain of Marxist Communist orthodoxy which has already brutally killed 165 Million people, and enslaved the rest within their Communist jurisdictions, for most of the last 100 years.

The immoral and evil socialist/communist trojan has been infecting American host cells for more than 130 years, and we are now to the point of “end it” or death and liberty are “ended”.

Many of these losers have jobs but they don’t work.

They are called school teachers.

Or rather - “...like the left is doing to the innocent now ACROSS America”

And “...and we are now to the point of “end it” or LIFE and liberty are “ended””.

Blocking Public Streets is a Crime.

“Conspiracy To Commit” even misdemeanor is often a FELONY.

Carry out the Law.
