"Simply put, the legislation gives officers NO ability to safely intercede to preserve property in the midst of a large, violent crowd," reads a letter from Seattle Chief of Police, Carmen Best - who added that thanks to the City Council, "Seattle Police will have an adjusted deployment in response to any demonstrations this weekend."

But don’t even think about defending yourself or else the Communist running that city will arrest you and throw you in a cage.

NYC commercial and residential real estate has declined ~20% since the rioting and looting began in May. Can’t imagine what has happened to Seattle and Portland real estate values.

Is it the plan to arrest and detain as many potential Trump voters as possible on November 3?

Agreed. It’s just sad when kids who didn’t do anything wrong have their safety compromised. A young, disabled black boy died in some crossfire at that CHOP experimental community thing or whatever through no fault of his own.

Prayers that all the stupefieid residents of Seattle and every large city in America wake UP 😲

How can we ever face off with the Chicoms when we can't even handle some spoiled brats acting out and having a tantrum? And it is not a lot of people acting out. 99.999% of Americans aren't rioting. The enemy media have inflated it all out of proportion. You know, portray a false narrative because … Trump.

I'm disgusted with some of our law enforcement. They seem more concerned with their pensions than doing their real job.

The police chief should resign—and then sue the city for having a hostile work environment.

They still do. Their hands are tied. If they obeyed the Byzantine rules, officers would die.

Oh trust me, that police chief will absolutely enforce the law but only against the people trying to protect themselves and their property from the criminal democrats called antifa. And the DA and leftist judges will gleefully convict anyone of crimes committed against antifa.

And people think we are not in a civil war where local and state governments have clearly chosen a side?

People get the government they vote for. The people of Seattle have spoken at the ballot box, and they have the government they voted for. Screw ‘em.
