Two people were arrested Sunday after a man was assaulted during a protest near Olympia City Hall.
About 3:45 p.m. Sunday, protesters who had gathered outside of City Hall moved into the intersection on Fourth Avenue and Cherry Street to block cars headed east. Counter protesters who had gathered in the Meineke Car Care Center parking lot across from City Hall tried to shepherd the cars through the lot and onto Cherry to keep traffic flowing.
The two groups got close and began yelling at one another, throwing insults and curses until a man from the group at Meineke was pepper sprayed in the face, according to Olympia Police Lt. Paul Lower. The man was then chased and assaulted by three other protesters. The man was hit in the head with an extendable baton, bloodying him, then he was punched multiple times by a second protester and hit with a cardboard sign by a third protester, Lower said.
The video below captures the emotional scene surrounding the assault as counter-protestors square off.

Once again no police presence… The mob gets to roam the streets. These people have declared war on civilized society. They have declared war on the police. We all must arm ourselves and protect our homes and families.
That won’t happen in my zipcode.
Does not seem to matter who the police arrest all are quickly released by the judiciary - including a man in Portland who hit a federal officer on the head with a 4.5lb hammer
We really need the police cracking down on these violent criminals. If anarchy is allowed to fester, this will only escalate.
For regular people who normally sit on the fence with most issues, maybe now they start to see why the only one you can really count on to save your life is yourself and why you need to arm up with the best available tools to do so. If you bet your life on the police keeping you safe, eventually that bet may stop paying off.

Okay.

Damn, serious? Why wasn’t he federally charged?
Not a Far Stretch.
