‘They Took Our Rights Away’: Citizen Living In Seattle’s Autonomous Zone Speaks Out
The Daily Caller ^ | June 12, 2020 | Virginia Kruta

Posted on 06/14/2020 10:53:49 AM PDT by BP1001

Seattle’s newly minted autonomous zone is reportedly causing problems for the people who lived in the area before the zone was created.

snip..

“A lot of these protesters do not agree with Raz becoming this warlord,” Talcott said. “We spoke to a few of them that were manning the entry points here in Seattle, and they say that his idea of what he wants CHAZ to become is not what the majority of the people inside want. So it is a little bit difficult, because they want no rules, but this is a society used to living by rules.”

Doesn’t matter, you’re telling them conservatives (presuming that’s how you identify) don’t care. Not how you win votes.”

There is nothing conservatives can do about their plight. Their elected officials want CHAZ to continue. It is up to Dorkan and Dimslee to do something about it but it is their fellow socialists running the Chaz.

Call the autonomous zone what it is, AN INVASION by radicals.
These perps need to be SHOT or rounded up and sent to China.

Your point is a good one but allow us our moment of righteous indignation before we offer a helping hand.

> Warlord? In the US? Seriously? <

That bothered me too. Warlord is so sexist. It should be Warperson.

Welcome to totalitarianism, you idiots. That's how it works out. You thought you were getting nirvana? Utopia?

Yeah, that's what the suckers in Jonestown thought, too.

Sounds like a small increase in Republican voters.

No worries, they will take care of business just like they did when they ambushed that really dangerous LaVoy Finicum.

Probably no increase in republican votes. People stupid enough to vote Democrat in the first place are mostly too stupid to learn from their mistakes.

I think more conservative state governments would make for a better country. There is nothing those out of power can do. Other than work for electoral victory. And I think that's better done acknowledging where the blame lies, elected liberals, rather than telling liberal voters tough, you got what you voted for. Which isn't completely accurate either. Few of these officials ran on a plank of mob violence. And it's a long political battle. Chicago has not a single Republican alderman. One Independent, who left the GOP five years ago. Chicago is likely lost for decades. Illinois, elections heavily impacted by Chicago and Cook county, has had 6 R Governors vs 7 D 4 who went to jail, the most recent 18 months ago. There are victories which can be had.

Extreme difference in the DEM vs. GOP numbers.
It could be that the GOP voters are in the closet but the region is overwhelmingly liberal socialist commies.
I was in Seattle in October 2018, at a reunion.
The wife of one of the attendees was so obnoxious, she ruined the party for me. She “just could not believe that a nice guy,” like me, could be a conservative. She wouldn’t let go and badgered me as often as she could. She lives in Bellevue, which is East of “CHAZ,” across Lake Washington.
I’m hoping that “CHAZ,” expands to the East. She needs to have her attitude adjusted. YUK

Tim Eyman is a conservative guy that brings up all sorts of petitions that get voted on and submitted to the state government.

He proposed going back to $30 car tabs, it was passed, but Gov. Inslee still hasn’t changed it.

He went to the “CHAZ” the other day and it sounded like he spent an hour or more there. Walking around, listening to the speakers, etc. But then he was recognized (he had his Tim Eyman for Governor sticker on his shirt!) and was getting shouted at, etc.

He stood his ground and listened a bit more, then left.

In his post with the video he said he thought it was interesting how these protestors are doing it to be heard. But then when he goes down there to listen, they shout him down and yell for him to leave.
