Seattle reaches deal with 'CHOP' to remove temporary roadblocks, replace with concrete barriers
Fox News ^ | June 16 2020 | Danielle Wallace

The city of Seattle and protesters occupying the “Capitol Hill Organized Protest” have reached an agreement that will remove temporary roadblocks and replace them with concrete barriers, Fox News has been told.

The Seattle Department of Transportation is installing concrete barriers in the middle of Pine Street, running East and West, which will split the road for both pedestrian and vehicle traffic. This will allow for emergency service vehicles to pass through the area.

The agreement will reduce the area protesters previously called Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, or CHAZ, from about six or seven city blocks to just three. This is the first time in weeks traffic will be able to pass by the shuttered East Police Precinct.

Progress at last. The city is getting sick of this obviously. Plus Trump has had federal law enforcement quietly arresting individual AntiFa and deplenishing their ranks.

the Seattle elected “officials” thus officially endorse
the sedition.

there never was an Oath in which any of the Communists,
anarchists, Islamic terrorists believed. NONE.
The “mayor” and “governor” are there only
to kill America and Americans.

Pay no taxes but receive city services--a leftist utopia!

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

Margaret Thatcher

As for the actual property owners, well, their property has been expropriated by "the people" without compensation, and no lawyers have the guts to take the case.

This could also be to help keep the Bikers for Trump motorcycle group from over running the dump as they have said they intend to do July 4th. I think it wouldn’t be unreasonable to think that the Seattle police wouldn’t be getting ready to protect their new found buddies inside the CHAZ compound from being forcibly evicted. Hey, it’s just a thought. It could happen. Crazier things than that idea has so far this year.

I wonder if all of joe public can have ‘block parties’ and take over whatever city streets and buildings that they want to?

Why work when you can just commandeer other people’s stuff for yourself?

“Replace them with occupied body bags.”

Ooooh,...or, what about dropping off a couple of pallets of body bags here and there? More than a few of those idiots would slink away.

Looks like the “compromise” gave our domestic enemies less territory with more easily defended walls.

No! The city’s and the state’s strategy is to try to ignore them as much as possible in hopes that the terrorist will finally tire of their efforts and just go away.

The only "deal" they should reach with them is one negotiated over the barrel of a gun. One that ends with the insurrectionists in handcuffs. One that results in their returning in orange jumpsuits to help clean up and rebuild the area they have destroyed.

Anything less is a de facto capitulation. Apparently there is no rule of law in Seattle anymore. Citizens can and should take matters into their own hands. The government they elected and payed taxes to is no longer protecting them.
