The judge needs to have his house and then his face covered in graffiti to clear his mind.

This is what a failed nation state looks like.

Finished.

Wow. Just wow. I realize this is a fed judge but this is the same state that told private property owners that they could NOT remove tenants who refused to pay rent because of Covid.

It seems like the Monarchy owns everything now doesn’t it?

The whole issue is rather moot, because, as a misdemeanor offense police couldn’t enforce it. The value is such that the perpetrators/artists couldn’t be jailed.

It is a typical ‘feel good’ by the leftists who fail to see all the ramifications of their stupidity.

I was in Seattle last month, the first time I had been there in seven years. It’s really turned into a craphole.

Round and round we go, though not so merrily, circling the drain...

She's made sure her address in Seattle has been scrubbed from the Internet.

Laws for thee, oh little man...

RE: reflect our values
(in the middle of quote section.)


What if the values of only 2% are reflected? The skateboard, pierced cheeks, tongue jewelry crowd with heads shave on one side are not all the populace.

They’d shriek loudly if someone portrayed the Founding Fathers, veterans in combat or a Christian scene or creche at Christmas outside.

Since when does a judge have he authority to dictate to another n=branch of government how to enforce the law?

Yup. If it were up to me, anyone found in the process of spraying grafitti paint would be arrested and dropped into a vat of oil-based paint.

If I repaint/scrub/sandblast my wall to remove the vandals’ scrawls, am I guilty of impinging on their first amendment rights or illegal destruction of their “artistic” property and subject to arrest in the bizzaro world of Seattle?

How crazy is this?! The judge should resign in shame or be impeached.

There is probably a city permit, inspection requirement, and fee of course to remove “1st amendment art” from your property.

I thought I had posted this on the other thread but I can’t find it. Anyway, from Washington State Law on the use of force:

3) Whenever used by a party about to be injured, or by another lawfully aiding him or her, in preventing or attempting to prevent an offense against his or her person, or a malicious trespass, or other malicious interference with real or personal property lawfully in his or her possession, in case the force is not more than is necessary;

Although I suppose that this latest rulings and perhaps previous rulings have made this law mute.

I assume the judge is a D appointee and, therefore, Seattle voted for this.

ICE needs to start issuing cans of spray paint to illegal aliens and dropping them off in front of all the court houses for some dayz of fun and art in the sun. “Judgey” don’t care.
