As a deadly pandemic resurges in Washington, city leaders in Seattle are preparing for a weekend of probable Portland-level conflict between newly arrived federal agents, the Seattle Police Department, and...let's call them.................groups of demonstrators using different strategies to protest police brutality and a capitalist, white supremacist, colonialist patriarchy that relies on state violence to sustain itself.

Durkan asked the city to "stand together to denounce" a group of protesters who busted up and lit fires within businesses and public buildings last Sunday afternoon and Wednesday night. She said this "relatively small" group is "bent on destruction," and referenced social media posts showing "they want to continue that kind of fight" this weekend.
Durkan argued these "acts of destruction...could serve as fodder for the President's attempts to show there's a need for him to come into Seattle or other cities," and said Trump's use of federal agents to crack down on protesters in Democratic cities "is frightening."
"Please don't take the bait. Don't buy into it. Be peaceful," Durkan said.
**SNIP**
The Seattle City Council unanimously passed the law after police kettled and gassed PROTESTERS - nearly killing ONE - at 11th and Pine for days, which has drawn a lawsuit from Black Lives Matter Seattle-King County and others. On Wednesday a judge blocked a move from Durkan and Best to stop the law from going into effect. A court order barring cops from using gas and blast balls against peaceful protesters expires on September 30, though police may use such weapons if they see protesters engaging in "violent or life-threatening activity.”

YES! Crackin' a few skulls. Now we're gettin' somewhere. Inching towards water cannons, I tell ya. I like water cannons.
In Seattle, the slogan should be “no recall, no peace” because that is the omly way they are going to get peace by recalling this dingbat lesbian
“”Inching towards water cannons, I tell ya. I like water cannons.””
I’m not sure what a water cannon is but I’ve wondered why on earth they can’t use fire hoses on these idiots. How come it was allowed in the sixties and not now?n Just can’t stop asking stupid questions, I know!
Swap it for riot 1911
Jenny Jenny who can I turn to?
White privileged Durkin. What a cracka
You say you want a revolution?
> I’ve wondered why on earth they can’t use fire hoses on these idiots. <
Are you ready for this? Some liberals say that using fire hoses in that manner would be racist behavior. And that’s because back in the 1960s police used fire hoses on black civil rights marchers.
Does that play a part here? Who knows?
“May I suggest using your nightstick, officer?”
Yes, that’s what is needed. Especially those foul mouthed women - add some clorox to wash their filthy mouths out!! Goes for the men also. Saw some of the clips I guess were taken in Louisville today? Absent fire hoses, just ship these animals back to some country in Africa. They aren’t civilized enough to live among the rest of us!
I noticed all the ads are for Democrats. Strange, but true.
or switch to gasoline mixed with dish detergent.... and then offer them a smoke!
Water bump.
12 lb. Napoleon, 3 inch ordnance rifle or a 10 Lb. parrot rifle with canister will work also.
But not non-lethally. 8>)
your point?
Non-lethal repels do not bring charges. Unless of course you brandish a weapon protecting your home in Missouri. 8>0
