Seattle Protesters Negotiate Over Leaving ‘Autonomous Zone’
Wall Street Journal ^ | 6/12/20 | Jim Carlton

SEATTLE - Black Lives Matter protesters negotiated with local officials here Friday over their terms for leaving a six block area that they have controlled for most of the week without a police presence.

**SNIP**

“If there is no police, there is no problem,” Fekadu Shibeshi, an immigrant from Ethiopia, said as he surveyed the festive scene.

Organizers say thousands of people are living in the Autonomous Zone, though many spend only some time there before returning to their homes.

**SNIP**

“It’s a temporary occupation until we get our demands met,” said Jessica Kilpatrick, a BLM spokeswoman.

**SNIP**

An argument broke out within the autonomous zone Friday when Bridgette Allen and two other African-Americans began removing orange road barriers they said reminded them of slavery.

“We don’t want barriers, that’s the thing we’re trying to take down,” said Ms. Allen, 60.

Wow. THAT’S the solution. Give them MORE barriers. Bring in MORE fences. Tall ones. Like the ones they have between the United States and Mexico.

Fence the entire area off, then say: “OK. Have fun, children!” and then turn off the cell phone towers and kick the media out.

Come back in six weeks and collect anyone who’s still alive and throw them in jail for sedition.

EXACTLY! Anyone left alive could be vaccinated against stupidity, right BG?

“Fekadu Shibeshi, an immigrant from Ethiopia”

How did this otherized mutant get here? Swim?

I heard a Hispanic immigrant co-worker telling a black co-worker (in broken English) that as a Latina she was “with them”; why did she come here? More importantly, why let her in?

Blockade the area and starve them out. Already breaking down due to lack of Tofu. As for the Ethiopian, thow his black ass out to his own country and feast of dead goat ticks. Schmuck!

“...no one can tell us we’re wrong.”

Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on

...orange road barriers they said reminded them of slavery

Couple of questions here
When were these asshats ever slaves?
When did slave owners use orange barricades?

burning down PP altars to satan, I kinda like bulldozing first cause then I can do it. Hopefully it will happen cause if not, I truly see this all as the closest to the Great World Wide Tribulation so far in history.

There are still a handful of no-pre-born-genocide nations though. Pray for a worldwide revival. Been watching/listening to Steve Bannon on WarRoom Pandemic about China. Big stuff there too.
