SEATTLE (AP) — A U.S. judge on Friday ordered Seattle police to temporarily stop using tear gas, pepper spray and flash-bang devices to break up largely peaceful protests, a victory for groups who say authorities have overreacted to recent demonstrations over police brutality and racial injustice.
The liberal city with a lengthy history of massive, frequent protests has taken hits from all sides — from demonstrators, some city officials, the president and now a judge — over the way it's responded to crowds taking to the streets following George Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis police. Those on the right say the mayor and police chief aren't being tough enough on protesters who have taken over part of a neighborhood near downtown Seattle, while those on the left say police tactics have been far too harsh.
U.S. District Judge Richard Jones sided with a Black Lives Matter group that sued the Seattle Police Department this week to halt the violent tactics it has used to break up protests.

Nope George the 2nd.
Affirmative action?
He didn’t ban napalm.
Recall The Idiot allowed Clinton tons of Lefty nominees still pending to get rammed when he beat Gore after a moron jester .
The Judge’s argument is full of tard BS. Needs to be appealed.
The left ALWAYS protects their own and their Stalinazi agenda through judicial tyrants.
Shrub f**ked us.
How about using a septic tanker pump truck and spray them with the contents? They probably would love it!
Another judge makes "The List".
Protestors don’t need tear gas. Rioters do.
Surprised cops can still have guns. Personally cops should in my opinion stop using tear gas, and start weaponizing Carolina Reper peppers into a nice spay.
Finny how these Seattle treasonist can flip the finger and become autonomis, but we have to listen and obey every unelected black robed tyrant. These @ssho’s sure wouldn’t.
Aggghhh. It’s Emporer Ming. Call in Buck Rogers.
Dyed water which takes months to completely wash off would help. Identify the losers, including enabling curfew breakers who give cover for rioters.
We have a right to assemble and the constitution doesn't limit how many of us can assemble at one time.
The operative word the judge used is "largely". Police have no right and should be fired and prosecuted for using tear gas and other forceful means to break up a peaceful and lawful protest.
The problem becomes when you have destructive, theiving and violent rioters mixed in with peaceful protesters. If a crowd is "largely" peaceful protesters but 5% are rioters, what are the police to do? This is akin to North Vietnamese guerillas mixing in with and using inocent villagers as shields and decoys.
What's the best way to handle a crowd when most are peaceful but some are not? Siggestions?
He looks like Lenin.
Damn straight
Spray them all with shit
