It should be patently obvious what is going on. The revolutionaries know that getting rid of city police forces is their path to victory.
Therefore they have basically declared war on the police. They are pursuing this war on a propaganda level, a political level, and on a kinetic level. They are winning.
If you have property or a business in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Chicago, or Minneapolis sell and get out while you still can. The citizens of these cities have lost the political will to elect representatives who will fight the forces of anarchy. These cities are lost.
The attack on and decline of municipal police forces will have damaging effects throughout the country. As in New York in the 1980s, it will take the emergence of a coalition between conservatives and pragmatists to counter the emergent radical Marxist and identity based urban movement that is seizing control of major US cities.
One imagines a scenario— maybe not in Seattle—where the populace blocks that path.
With vigor.

The left wins elections by apathy as much as they win by their lies. With a bias media to cover for them they can move their agenda along in relatively secret way...however, firing your police and allowing mobs to run free tend to get noticed, even if the media tries to cover it up.
The City Council should enjoy this moment because this may be the high point in their career because their action is going end it (their careers) when the people have had enough.
Urban areas get all of the press. My town of 16K is looking at demands for the Mayor’s resignation and demotion of the Police Chief, among other demands. The Chief is probably close enough to retirement to make a decision similar to Chief Best’s choice. We had a BLM rally in town Saturday..Folks out of Portland were brought in.
Cities will come back when law and order and sanity come back until then its an American SH##HOLE
“...in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Chicago, or Minneapolis...”
My fear is that once these cities are firmly under the thumb of the BLM/Antifa crowd, they’ll send groups of their “troops” to other, smaller democrat-run cities. The rioting and destruction will start anew resukting in the eventual “surrender” of those smaller cities. The invasion of the suburbs in those cities will not be far behind. I’m in NC, so I guess Raleigh, Durham, Charlotte would be on their wish list.
Or the vote fraud is so polished and institutionalized that no vote they cast will make any difference.
