Just as the Islamic State (ISIS) claimed territory in Iraq and Syria, antifa militants have claimed territory in Seattle, Wash. According to reports on the ground from The Post Millennial’s Andy Ngo and Townhall’s Julio Rosas, protesters and antifa instigators have seized land in the Capitol Hill area around the Seattle Police East Precinct. Like ISIS, the rioters appear to have decided on setting up a government in their occupied territory, naming it “Free Capitol Hill.”
“Seattle [Mayor Jenny Durkan] is allowing a dangerous situation to fester. [Antifa] militants have taken over & created an ‘autonomous zone’ in city w/their own rules. Police precinct abandoned. Antifa set up barricades to create a border. Calling for volunteers to provide armed guard,” Ngo tweeted.
His message included tweets from rioters and pictures of the “Free Capitol Hill” poster on the side of a barricade, along with a map of the area antifa had taken over.
“The Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone. Folks in Seattle have secured six block of city [at the moment], barricaded it, and gotten local businesses and residents to agree to, well, disaffiliate from Seattle basically. It’s a flux state in the making,” Alex Humva tweeted.
“Speaker at the autonomous zones advocating folks with firearms take shifts defend the barricades. Sh*t is getting organized,” another inside the barricades tweeted.
The map Ngo tweeted claims to represent Seattle on the night of June 8. Antifa rioters claim to have taken over the “Capital Hill Free Zone (Protester Occupied Seattle)” in yellow. The zone includes the “Captured Regime East Precinct (Abandoned Police Station with doors left unlocked lol),” along with areas marked “Commune Food Stations,” “CHFZ Commune Barricades,” “Relaxation & Dining Field (food regularly handed out + coffee bar),” and a “Stoa (Informal Congregational Area).”

So us folks in Eastern Washington can set up barricades on all the mountain passes and set up our own free state as well?
Cool...
“...Seattle is replete with leftists who are self-loathing. Much of what is driving their lunacy is an awareness that their ideas, their arguments and their lives are fraudulent and worthless . They are angry at everything and everyone who holds a different opinion. Their existence is absent any positive value. They are not strong enough to do themselves in....”
Great detailed description, but it can all be summed up in: They’re Insane!!!
Libs/Leftists belong in mental institutions, not government.
If it is anything like occupy wall street the area will become a rape zone and the women will have to escape.
Warning, militant Islamist groups setting the stage for infiltration and take over of towns and cities. Once entrenched removal will be difficult, violent and destructive.
Best for President Trump to get his legal team in order on how to swiftly federalize the national guard and position in place (if not already positioned).
Presently it would appear President Trump is following the situation so the timing is most effective. If the situation continues to develop along this path public opinion will overwhelmingly support bringing law and order back to the neighborhood.
Send in the SEALS.
I think he was referring to the anarchist riots during the WTO protests in 1999
Good, get them all in one place.
Build a wall.
I see things have evolved since the 60’s and 70’s. They used to just take over college deans offices. Now they take over parts of cities.
“....Where the hell is the DOJ??...”
DOJ???? What’s that??? /s
“...I thought guns and walls were bad?...”
They were, but they’re gonna do it “better and “right” this time. /s
The FBI and DOJ are diligently searching every nook and cranny and under every rock looking for the shadowy group of right-wing white supremacists who are responsible for all this.
I hope they have farms, power plants, medical supply factories, and sewage treatment plants there. Otherwise their fascist dictatorship will be short lived.
I love the Pacific northwest and have visited Seattle several times. Guess I won’t this year. With the homeless problems they have, this just adds another reason to go someplace else. Seattle 10 years ago was a wonderful place to visit in the summer.
I can’t imagine what the homeowners must be putting up with.
Lord please forgive me but that was funny. Lol
There has to be at least a few wannabes among them.
When the first innocent person who dares to mention Constitutional Rights to ANTIFA gets killed, it’ll be interesting to see the Militia’s response.
They’ve got a web site set up and looking for “subscribers” to donate.
Excerpt:
The first night in the so-called Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone that has formed in the wake of police giving up the week-long blockade of the East Precinct was rainy and peaceful and full of speeches from activists, agitators, poets, and socialist city council members.
“I guess whatever the fuck we’re doing is effective,” one organizer identified as Magik said over a megaphone early in the night as police were still clearing the area. “They are going to move up. They are going to get everybody out of here and we are free to move through these streets and protest and march.”
“Yesterday we were on 11th and Pine. Today we have victory on 12th and Pine. They tried to stop us!,” another exclaimed.
The night brought tense moments but compared to the previous week of blast balls and clouds of gas and pepper spray, Pike/Pine was calm if not quiet — the county sheriff’s helicopter stayed circling overhead until midnight providing observations to SPD command on the ground and often drowning out speeches below. The only major reported conflict came when a TV news crew for the local Fox affiliate was temporarily chased from the scene and took up refuge in the nearby fire station.
The surprise pullback of SPD riot police and National Guard troops came together quickly Monday afternoon after a day of hastily clearing out equipment, moving trucks, and reports of a “mobile shredding unit” at the building at 12th and Pine that is home to the East Precinct headquarters as well as department office facilities. “The decision has been made to allow demonstrators to march past the East Precinct later today,” an announcement sent to department staff about the decision to close the building read. “Additional measures are currently underway to enhance our ongoing efforts to insure the security of our East Precinct and provide for the safety of all our officers.”.......
I would expect Nan and the rest to funnel support to their little maoist enclave.
LaVoy Finicum took over one empty shack, they killed him for it, after they were told to turn off their body cameras.
Science fiction called it—including the Seattle location!:
