Seattle installed a statue of Lenin in the Fremont District purchased from Russia right after the collapse of the USSR.

You should have seen me back in the 1960s.

I was the guy getting screamed at by thousands of leftist protesters.

The young get to fight now....

I have no sympathy for them. I always thought for these areas put up a fence so they can’t get out and let them kill each other off. Once that’s done, take the fence down, sweep up the mess and start over.

Those folks are, at least some, being held against their will. They did not vote for these BLM/Antifa punks to rule them.

Poor things.

I'll bet they wish they were permitted to have guns NOW!

.....”I have no sympathy for them”.....

Neither do I, nor for any who’ve elected these nutjobs to city offices.

If I owned a food truck, no way would I go in there. Let them eat each other first

I believe the mayor and gov deep inside probably want Trump to intervene, but there’s no way they can even have a dialog with Trump for fear of being removed by the anarchists. So Trump will gladly let then fester in their stew of lawlessness.

Now if a federal building is targeted, all bets are off.

Trump is keeping his powder dry until after the election. Once elected, the gloves come off and it’s going to be downright ugly until the vermin is rooted out.

If Trump prevails and wins back the house and keeps the senate, America moves forward. If Biden wins, the Marxists will be empowered and rise up, and America will cease to exist as a free republic.

It appears that the lock downs have piqued interest in homeschooling. Let’s hope so

Nikkita Oliver, a radical activist and former mayoral candidate, emerged as a critical voice of the protest movement and assumed a leadership role in the newly declared autonomous zone.

Speaking to the crowd..... “[We need to] align ourselves with the 'global' struggle that acknowledges the United States plays a role in Racialized capitalism, Racialized capitalism is built upon Patriarchy, White Supremacy, and Classism.”

They have claimed de facto police power over thousands of residents and dozens of businesses—completely outside of the democratic process......and ‘forcibly’ removed unfriendly media from the territory.

Yep...I’ve been saying this all along ....bitter/hateful/ugly women with the biggest screeching mouths are always the loudest speakers and lead these packs.
