RE: which has seen two deadly shootings in three weeks and crime rise by 500 percent

The mainstream press and Democrat’s excuse for allowing CHOP to occupy was the so-called deadly shootings were no big deal. That part of Seattle was already crime ridden anyway and the CHOP folks were just continuing the status quo.

They screwed up when they went to the mayor’s house. The left doesn’t tolerate that kind of disobedience.

Armed insurgents won't engage in a pitched battle. They will melt back into the populace and continue to agitate.

They had to go to her house to get her to do something.

Much of Seattle wishes they’d gone to her house first.

The police should only be allowed to use the same force that the Marxists used when they were in charge.

They lost their heads and turned on the massa. Not good to upset the plantation owner.

More people died in CHOP in two weeks than were killed all year by the Minneapolis police.

Trump said all we had to do was sit back and watch it implode.
