Police in Seattle declared a riot in that city after peaceful protesters on Saturday were “provoked” by cops into setting fires and throwing explosives, rocks, and bottles that injured 21 officers and sent one policeman to the hospital who was hit in the knee by an explosive device.
A construction site on Capitol Hill was torched and another police precinct was broken into with “explosive damage” done to the walls. Another Starbucks was lit up, and numerous storefronts were vandalized. At least 45 people were arrested. In other words, just another typical, peaceful, tranquil day for the residents of Seattle.
Are there any businesses left in downtown Seattle? If there are, they may want to head for the hills.

The Seattle police chief informs business owners that they are on their own against rioters. The city council has tied her hands. The police do not have the tools to combat mob violence.

All Democrats need to suffer.
Unfortunately, the Democrats are making the whole country suffer under their insane leftist policies!
I am sure there are some good cops in Seattle. Their hands are tied.
Remember that video from a few years back titled “Seattle is
Dying“? The video showed that the city Council didn’t care about anyone except drug addicts, communists, and criminals.
Who’s getting those tax dollars?
Everybody likes to talk about Texas,but it will happen everywhere eventually. Even if it doesn't the school system will churn out homegrown versions of Seatlle-ites and Portlanders.
When will theCival War begin between Americans and Democrats?
Electing Democraps into office has severe consequences. Let’s hope the majority of voters get that through their thick skulls this November
Eventually someone is going to start shooting in self defense and they will take out a lot of these little creeps.
“When will theCival War begin between Americans and Democrats?”
It already has and it’s 35 to nothing in the 1st quarter.
So Chief fancy panties, if I am “on my own” does that mean that I can start shooting?
She seems imminently qualified for the job.
If you read the news yesterday morning, including FR, you would have seen that a judge blocked the ban on non-lethal police equipment, including pepper spray, etc.. The police chief issued another statement saying that they would indeed be using pepper spray, which they did last night and will today.

If the cops would send a letter to the rioters telling *them* they are on their own, maybe the problem could get solved.
So, store owners allowed to protect their property?
The last civil war was against Americans and democrats and that one never ended for the democrats. This is just a continuation of their previous grab for total power.
So, store owners allowed to protect their property?
