Mayor Cheryl Selby of Olympia, Washington just got her consciousness raised. Her hometown newspaper, The Olympian, reported last Friday: On Friday night, two groups converged in downtown Olympia, and some became destructive, burning flags, smashing windows, and spray painting businesses and Olympia Mayor Cheryl Selby’s home.

Selby and her family were not home last night, but her neighbors began texting her when the protesters arrived at her house.

“I’m really trying to process this,” she told The Olympian over the phone Saturday. “It’s like domestic terrorism. It’s unfair.

“It hurts when you’re giving so much to your community,” she said

Once the revolution is complete, the rulers will get rid of the original revolutionaries and their supporters in the media. History repeats over and over. They don’t want a counterrevolution that threatens their power.

The quote: “It hurts when you’re giving so much to your community,” she said
Does anyone know what she is giving so much of to the community?

Not all female rulers throughout history were like these individuals. Queen Tamara of Georgia and Empress Olga of Kiev to name a few - ruthless and protective of their people. Many others as well. This is more how the ideology interacts with the gender, rather than the gender itself. A staunchly conservative woman who knows her beliefs like Kristi Noem, is a completely different creature than these ladies.

I know I am not as good a Christian as I should be because I laughed a little inside and I know I should not have.

I'm not a Christian, so I slapped my thigh with glee.

Ditto, especially in the “not homo” way. LOL

She would, if it happened to her home.
