EXCLUSIVE: ‘I’ve Been Scared Every Day’: Seattle Resident Speaks Out About Life On The Border Of CHAZ
Daily Caller ^ | June 13, 2020 | Shelby Talbott

Posted on 06/14/2020 9:08:36 AM PDT by CheshireTheCat

A Seattle resident living in Capitol Hill, where activists have taken over a roughly six-block radius and turned it into the “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” (CHAZ), spoke with the Daily Caller in an exclusive interview about life on the border of the commune.

The man, who asked to only be referred to as Brandon, said he has been terrified since the protests began. Brandon said protesters are at his gates every night, adding that his “own government” has abandoned the people.

“I’m scared,” Brandon said. “I’ve been scared every day since Sunday, and I haven’t gotten a lot of sleep. For the first time in my life in Capitol Hill, I hear gunshots every single night. I’ve heard people screaming every single night outside. And they’re not protest screams … I’ve also heard screams of terror out there, and I don’t know what’s happening out there.”

Yes. Good points.

Also the disguised, deliberate killing of their own fellow “protesters” by their own thugs to make a sympathetic news story. Old time tactic of Commies and Nazis.

One death will be a sweet college woman, cheerleader and honor student, who felt she had to support the civil rights of the downtrodden people under police brutality.

Second will be a black law student, law review editor, who cares for his ailing widowed mother.

He sounds like a lefty fag to me, and working in Hollywood, I’m used to the way leftards talk. I can surmise he’s 90% Dummycrap and I have no sympathy.

According to the election stats, only 8% in Seattle voted for Trump and the vast majority for Hitlery. Statistically acceptable, he made his own bed.

“Brandon” is actually upset because he couldn’t get laid by the hipster chicks during the riots - the chicks were all more interested in getting on their knees in front of their new black BFF’s.

Trump does not have to send “ troops”
He has a federal task force, intel collection ingoing, authorization to use federal agents with or without state “permission” and tactical mobility teams with a very particular set of skills

This is all stuff that occurred in the past twenty years. Sad to go back to 1970s/1980s...was a totally different town, and had real character in those days.

Wait a minute! The Today Show aired a puff piece the other day saying everything was OK over there. They planted a garden.

After those two hostages are killed, the leadership will start shooting a few of their own randomly, making it look like the government did it, to try to get the party started. The leadership and the shooters will already have their escape plan ready to execute as soon as the party starts. And a bit later the shooter will get his as he knows too much. OPSEC, ya know!

I don’t think so.

It sounds as if he is truly afraid of the monster he now realizes he helped create.

He knew he was talking to Daily Caller.

He wanted to get a message out about how bad the people who run Chaz, or whatever they call it now, is.

If people are still there to be grabbed, and haven't long since fled, tough noogies.

Right now, there is nothing preventing these "Brandons" from piling their worldly goods in a baby carriage and walking East.

One thing that the media has down played is that CHAZ is a gay area of town, and the location choice was not random. The locals were friendly to the idea of a demonstration against "Alt-Right MAGA hat wearing Trumpers".

If they wind up piled in a heap of bodies, on the nightly news round up, well...

“Brandon” is probably thinking about what he is voting for now and it is easy to say “well, you voted for it.” However, did he really vote for this? Did he vote to be a prisoner in his own home?

“Brandon” has the same constitutional rights that you and I have.

At what point are the Mayor and Governor failing their basic duty to protect his constitutional rights? This is why it is intolerable and it must be stopped. While I have laughed at the idiocy and it is hard not to, we must see that such a failure could not be tolerated. It’s the soy boy district of Seattle today, but it could be your parent’s neighborhood tomorrow.

The city must step in and end this immediately. While there is a political advantage perhaps to allowing this ridiculous “Lord of the Flies” episode to continue, the constitution demands it be ended.

Every citizen has basic constitutional rights and those rights must be protected regardless of how screwed up their district is politically in our eyes.

Just my .02.

Understandable with Raz, the Warlord and his tribal junta running around with guns.

what’s to prevent them from grabbing a bunch of non-protesters who actually live on Capitol Hill and make hostages out of them?

They already have. The mockingbird media just hasn't started calling them that yet. The day they do, it will only be for the purposes of blaming President Trump for allowing a hostage situation to take place. Still, the media won't blame the antifa terrorists of being terrorists holding hostages. The mental gymnastics will be amazing.

He must be kind of stupid.

A lot of hard-core techies are savants in one narrow area, at least when they're young. They (with help from their parents and teachers) convince themselves that they're full-on geniuses, and never wrong about anything. All while being real dummies.

Sort of a variation on Dunning-Kruger, in that they delude themselves into thinking that a high level of competence in one narrow area automatically confers a high level of competence in every subject.

Maybe it’s time for Washington residents to take it back.

To the contrary, they’ll probably raise taxes to pay to support and maintain it.

I think he is a decent person who thought decent people should be with demonrats and now realizes he had it all wrong

*************

Nope, he’ll rationalize all this away and keep voting Democrat. These people are immune to logic.
