re: “”If we truly want to build a summer of resistance against Trump and the billionaire class, then we will need disruptive action like shutting down airports, and shutting down highways.”

I don’t know, it seems to me that when an elected public official calls for “disruptive action” (i.e. rioting??) and shutting down roads and airports for a political protest - isn’t that kind of like, calling for revolution? Isn’t that illegal or something?

If the dem party was a human body; Seattle would be the rectum and large colon.

Mayor Ed Murray provided some rather impotent pushback saying, “We need to keep our freeways and our on and off ramps...the state, of course, needs to keep our on and off ramps open.”
= = = = = = = = = = = =
Now if the Gov of Washington had ANY gonads, he would declare a state of emergency and call out the Natl Guard to assist the State Patrol in keeping the highways clear.

It is apparent the City will be doing NOTHING.

Good, businesses who suffer vandalism and destruction should send a bill to the city then.

I read a while back that May 1st was going to be the day that there will be uprisings and chaos in the U.S. Obama stuck his head out of the hole so we shall see- just another day for paid protestors-

May day protests in Seattle are traditional. Lots of destruction and violence. Police officers injured. It’s what the left does in Seattle.

“”Is the Mayor of Portland a ‘rat’ and is the Gov. of that State a ‘rat’?””

The article is about Seattle......

::Why just on May day?::

An old tradition for old communists and socialists!!

::International Workers’ Day, also known as Labour Day[citation needed] in some countries, is a celebration of labourers and the working classes that is promoted by the international labour movement, socialists, communists or anarchists and occurs every year on May Day (1 May), an ancient European spring festival::

Hope they get fleas....

Old curse, well maybe......

May a thousand pregnant fleas of a thousand pregnant camels infest their pubic hairs.

The taxpayers of Seattle should sue to prohibit the workers who participate from being paid wages for the day, they are employed to to do specific tasks and I doubt that protesting is mentioned anywhere in their job description.
