It’s surreal watching it.
BLM was on a street corner at 8AM last Sunday in Everett (30 miles north). They are trying to export this stuff to the suburbs here, but I don’t think they have the money or muscle.
Also, the machine here in town was built on the drug trade. Very rich folks in Everett made their money controlling drug distribution and laundering it through real estate bought for cash.
I think this is why you aren’t seeing this stuff in Little Italy/Chinatown (Mulberry Street) in Manhattan right now. BLM knows where to crap and where not to crap.
There’s been marches up here, and they threatened to burn down the Everett Mall (and Walmart). Police were sent to protect them and nothing really happened.
There was a full-on gunfight (like in a movie) at Jackson Park a week ago. All semi-auto, but large magazines.
I remember watching Heat (Pacino). The scene where the bank robbers get caught outside the bank and have to fight their way out. Great scene, but there was always something in the back of my mind thinking (no way could this happen).
Not good when real life makes Hollywood look trite.
Interesting. Thanks for the report.
