Never in my seven decades on the planet did I think I would be writing about events that seem to have stemmed from fiction. Certainly, I’ve read George Orwell’s “1984” and Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World” and, yes, the words, phrases and actions coming from members of the American Left are strikingly similar to whole sections of both books.
In another world and another time I would have said something similar to “interesting analysis” or “my, isn’t that quaint,” but people are dying in America right now because of “philosophical differences.”
We have now jumped the shark, jumped time, jumped fiction, pissed all over the air brakes, climbed into the Dr Peabody’s Wayback Machine in order to realize that, yeah, that Orwell dude was spot on.
And another author too, one you may not have read — but I’ve had him on my internet radio show five times. That would be veteran, attorney, commentator and author Kurt Schlichter.
What Kurt Schlichter did is this: he said “I want to write a book about the most fanciful, the most egregious, the most stupid potential scenario in the history of the United States, have some fun with it, push it to extremes — and then push it further.”
His first book, PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC, is about a dystopian near-future where politics have gotten to the point where the United States became Balkanized, grew apart, and segmented itself into blue and red areas. Then they had a civil war. Then things got worse. Kurt is now up to a total of four books in the series, to also include INDIAN COUNTRY, WILDFIRE and his most recent, COLLAPSE.
And guess what? Just when everyone was calling Kurt Schlichter a loon and every other foul word imaginable because he happens to be a Militant Normal like myself — hey, turns out things in America are following Schlichter’s books.
Fiction becomes reality. Fit re ficta. Just as I used to say for years when I was amazed at various happenstances, “you can’t write this stuff” — well, yeah, turns out you can write this stuff.
Let us begin. Our story follows the Minneapolis riots and the national rioting that occurred. Once the riots died down a bit, the whole paradigm shifted into “Defund The Police.” Much in-depth information about that, here in my post.
President Trump has clearly condemned the death of George Floyd — despite every attempt by the LDAMM to insist that he has not. Here is the evidence.

Following that and concurrently, we thusly end up, of course, in Seattle, Washington — the very hub of Antifa and anarchy.
Like a Marvel Origins story — but instead, this is evil incarnate — the precipitous collapse of America will find its origins in the decision to pull all of the Seattle police officers out of its East Precinct. It was abandoned. We know it was abandoned because officers pulled out all the files, equipment, evidence, and every officer left with all their vehicles. Call me wacky — that seems like abandonment to me. Hold the thought.
Within that decision there are two major Seattle government players involved, both women.
That would be Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan (good ol’ Mayor Jenny), a massive Leftist with no rudder position available save that of hard aport. And the head of the Seattle Police Department, Chief Carmen Best. Although apparently not really.
A slight aside: on May 31st, President Trump announced that Antifa was designated a terrorist organization.
Trump announces US to designate Antifa as terrorist organization following violent protests
by Ronn Blitzer
President Trump announced Sunday that the U.S. government will designate the far-left group Antifa as a terrorist organization.
This comes as Trump has blamed Antifa for riots taking place across the country in response to the death of George Floyd, the unarmed black man who died May 25 while in police custody in Minneapolis, Minn., after an officer kneeled on his neck for more than 8 minutes in an incident caught on video.
This is also very important to note, from the WashingtonTimes.com:
EXCLUSIVE: Antifa planned anti-government insurgency for months, law enforcement official says
by Bill Gertz, 6-3-20
Activists of the far-left Antifa movement began planning to foment a nationwide anti-government insurgency as early as November as the U.S. presidential campaign season kicked off in earnest, according to a law enforcement official with access to intelligence behind the shadowy group.
The radical movement has emerged as a key focus for investigators in the wake of violent protests and looting across the country after the death of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis, according to U.S. law enforcement officials and private security experts.
The law enforcement official would not speak on the record about Antifa’s plans as the election season heats up, but longtime analysts of the group say such a move would be entirely in character.
“Antifa’s actions represent a hard break with the long tradition of a peaceful political process in the United States,” said former National Security Council staff member Rich Higgins. “Their Marxist ideology seeks not only to influence elections in the short term but to destroy the use of elections as the determining factor in political legitimacy.”
Added Joe Myers, a former Defense Intelligence Agency official and counterinsurgency expert, “President Trump’s election and revitalization of America are a threat to Antifa’s nihilist goals. They are fomenting this violence to create havoc, despair and to target the Trump campaign for defeat in 2020.”
All you need to know about Antifa. And Seattle is Antifa’s very own back yard.
One thing we did know — and will discover again shortly — is that a society making war on its police had best become great friends with its criminals. Seattle took that to heart.
It started with this, from FoxNews.com, on June 8th.
Seattle protesters declare ‘cop free zone’ after police leave precinct
by Michael Ruiz
Protesters declared a “Cop Free Zone” near where Seattle police boarded up and seemingly abandoned their East Precinct building Monday night, according to local reports — following days of demonstrations in response to the police-involved death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
But with the building boarded up and police gone from the area, at least some demonstrators apparently decided to stay in place.
The first night without a police presence was “rainy and peaceful and full of speeches from activists, agitators, poets and socialist city council members,” according to Capitol Hill Seattle, a self-described community-based news blog.
And then it began.
The city’s police chief, Carmen Best, said Tuesday that police would further alter their approach to handling protests in the area, MyNorthwest reported.
The new approach is evident in images that Town Hall reporter Julio Rosas shared to Twitter.
They show hand-written signs taped to barricades in the area with messages including “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” and “You are now leaving the USA.”
CHAZ was born; the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone.
Another image shows “Welcome to Free Cap Hill” and “No Cops Allowed” scrawled in black marker across a plastic road barrier.
Seattle police noted on Twitter than the department is still responding to 911 calls.
Not for long.
Once CHAZ was created and Antifa and anarchist elements walled off a six-block section of one of the nicest portions of downtown Seattle, it was time to flex some muscles and produce a set of “demands.”
Antifa Releases List of Demands After Taking Over 6 Square Block Section in Seattle and Setting Up Armed Security Watch — List Includes Reparations and Ending Police Dept.
by Jim Hoft, 6-10-20
The antifa mob believes the district now belongs to them.
Here are their “demands.”
Given the historical moment, we’ll begin with our demands pertaining to the Justice System.
- The Seattle Police Department and attached court system are beyond reform. We do not request reform, we demand abolition. We demand that the Seattle Council and the Mayor defund and abolish the Seattle Police Department and the attached Criminal Justice Apparatus. This means 100% of funding, including existing pensions for Seattle Police. At an equal level of priority we also demand that the city disallow the operations of ICE in the city of Seattle.
- In the transitionary period between now and the dismantlement of the Seattle Police Department, we demand that the use of armed force be banned entirely. No guns, no batons, no riot shields, no chemical weapons, especially against those exercising their First Amendment right as Americans to protest.
- We demand an end to the school-to-prison pipeline and the abolition of youth jails. Get kids out of prison, get cops out of schools. We also demand that the new youth prison being built in Seattle currently be repurposed.
- We demand that not the City government, nor the State government, but that the Federal government launch a full-scale investigation into past and current cases of police brutality in Seattle and Washington, as well as the re-opening of all closed cases reported to the Office of Police Accountability. In particular, we demand that cases particular to Seattle and Washington be reopened where no justice has been served, namely the cases of Iosia Faletogo, Damarius Butts, Isaiah Obet, Tommy Le, Shaun Fuhr, and Charleena Lyles.
- We demand reparations for victims of police brutality, in a form to be determined.
- We demand that the City of Seattle make the names of officers involved in police brutality a matter of public record. Anonymity should not even be a privilege in public service.
- We demand a retrial of all People in Color currently serving a prison sentence for violent crime, by a jury of their peers in their community.
- We demand decriminalization of the acts of protest, and amnesty for protestors generally, but specifically those involved in what has been termed “The George Floyd Rebellion” against the terrorist cell that previously occupied this area known as the Seattle Police Department. This includes the immediate release of all protestors currently being held in prison after the arrests made at 11th and Pine on Sunday night and early Saturday morning June 7th and 8th, and any other protesters arrested in the past two weeks of the uprising, the name Evan Hreha in particular comes to mind who filmed Seattle police macing a young girl and is now in jail.
- We demand that the City of Seattle and the State Government release any prisoner currently serving time for a marijuana-related offense and expunge the related conviction.
- We demand the City of Seattle and State Government release any prisoner currently serving time just for resisting arrest if there are no other related charges, and that those convictions should also be expunged.
- We demand that prisoners currently serving time be given the full and unrestricted right to vote, and for Washington State to pass legislation specifically breaking from Federal law that prevents felons from being able to vote.
- We demand an end to prosecutorial immunity for police officers in the time between now and the dissolution of the SPD and extant justice system.
- We demand the abolition of imprisonment, generally speaking, but especially the abolition of both youth prisons and privately-owned, for-profit prisons.
- We demand in replacement of the current criminal justice system the creation of restorative/transformative accountability programs as a replacement for imprisonment.
- We demand autonomy be given to the people to create localized anti-crime systems.
- We demand that the Seattle Police Department, between now and the time of its abolition in the near future, empty its “lost and found” and return property owned by denizens of the city.
- We demand justice for those who have been sexually harassed or abused by the Seattle Police Department or prison guards in the state of Washington.
- We demand that between now and the abolition of the SPD that each and every SPD officer turn on their body cameras, and that the body camera video of all Seattle police should be a matter of easily accessible public record.
- We demand that the funding previously used for Seattle Police be redirected into: A) Socialized Health and Medicine for the City of Seattle. B) Free public housing, because housing is a right, not a privilege. C) Public education, to decrease the average class size in city schools and increase teacher salary. D) Naturalization services for immigrants to the United States living here undocumented. (We demand they be called “undocumented” because no person is illegal.) E) General community development. Parks, etc.
We also have economic demands that must be addressed.
- We demand the de-gentrification of Seattle, starting with rent control.
- We demand the restoration of city funding for arts and culture to re-establish the once-rich local cultural identity of Seattle.
- We demand free college for the people of the state of Washington, due to the overwhelming effect that education has on economic success, and the correlated overwhelming impact of poverty on people of color, as a form of reparations for the treatment of Black people in this state and country.
- We demand that between now and the abolition of the SPD that Seattle Police be prohibited from performing “homeless sweeps” that displace and disturb our homeless neighbors, and on equal footing we demand an end to all evictions.
- We demand a decentralized election process to give the citizens of Seattle a greater ability to select candidates for public office such that we are not forced to choose at the poll between equally undesirable options. There are multiple systems and policies in place which make it impractical at best for working-class people to run for public office, all of which must go, starting with any fees associated with applying to run for public office.
Related to economic demands, we also have demands pertaining to what we would formally call “Health and Human Services.”
- We demand the hospitals and care facilities of Seattle employ black doctors and nurses specifically to help care for black patients.
- We demand the people of Seattle seek out and proudly support Black-owned businesses. Your money is our power and sustainability.
- We demand that the city create an entirely separate system staffed by mental health experts to respond to 911 calls pertaining to mental health crises, and insist that all involved in such a program be put through thorough, rigorous training in conflict de-escalation.
Finally, let us now address our demands regarding the education system in the City of Seattle and State of Washington.
- We demand that the history of Black and Native Americans be given a significantly greater focus in the Washington State education curriculum.
- We demand that thorough anti-bias training become a legal requirement for all jobs in the education system, as well as in the medical profession and in mass media.
- We demand the City of Seattle and State of Washington remove any and all monuments dedicated to historical figures of the Confederacy, whose treasonous attempts to build an America with slavery as a permanent fixture were an affront to the human race.
A slight list. Nothing too extensive or costly.
Meantime, back at the ranch, Washington Governor Jay Inslee thought the whole affair was just good clean fun, worth chuckling about.
Jay Inslee Laughs About Antifa’s Rebellion in Seattle as He Demobilizes National Guard
by Tyler O’Neill, 6-10-20
As antifa militants have taken over six blocks of Seattle’s Capitol Hill district, calling it the “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” or the “People’s Republic of Capitol Hill,” Gov. Jay Inslee (D-Wash.) laughed about this open rebellion, saying he hadn’t heard about it. Inslee added that the National Guard is demobilizing, and his chief of staff suggested that even if an open rebellion had broken out on the streets of Seattle, it would be up to “local authorities” to fight it.
“Passing the buck” doesn’t even begin to cover the insanity of this “response.”
A reporter asked Inslee about the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone during the governor’s press conference on Wednesday, noting that the antifa militants had shut down part of the city and were “not allowing people to come and go freely.” He did not mention the fact that antifa had commandeered the Seattle Police East Precinct.
Jay Inslee is proving extremely derelict in his duty by not responding to this rebellion — and his decision to laugh at it is particularly damning. Rebellion is no laughing matter, especially for the 500 Americans whose homes are in the “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone.”
It’s just a love-fest, isn’t it? Isn’t that what Seattle Mayor Jenny said? Listen to her talk about the “summer of love” with CNN’s Chris Cuomo. Start at 3:15.
Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan defends ‘Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone’ as ‘patriotic’
by Tamar Lapin, 6-11-20
Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan on Thursday defended the protesters who have declared an “autonomous zone” on the city’s streets as “patriotic.”
In her remarks, Durkan said officials were in communication with residents, business owners and protesters in the zone, adding “it is not an armed Antifa militia, it is not a no-go zone.”
“We will make sure we find some way for people to continue to protest peacefully,” she said.
Neither Durkan nor Police Chief Carmen Best, who was also at the press conference, detailed specific plans for how to deal with the zone or a timeline for when cops would return to the precinct.
And didn’t CNN say, hell, these are just kids having a good time. Guns? What guns?
Right-wing media says Antifa militants have seized part of Seattle. Local authorities say otherwise
by Oliver Darcy, 6-11-20
Armed militant activists with the group Antifa have seized a sizable section of Seattle and are plotting to expand their territory — all as the local police surrender to them and evacuate a local precinct.
Or so the story goes if you’ve relied on right-wing media for your news this week.“You have now talk about armed volunteers of Antifa to guard their cop-free zone and taken over precincts,” Fox News host Sean Hannity told viewers Wednesday night on his television show, the highest-rated program on cable news.It is true that demonstrators have occupied a small, six-square block section of Seattle and designated it an “autonomous zone.” And it is true that, after clashes with police, a precinct was boarded up and evacuated in an attempt to deescalate the situation.But claims that bands of militant Antifa members are roving the Seattle streets appear to be grossly exaggerated in right-wing media. In fact, according to the Seattle mayor’s office, city officials haven’t seen any evidence to indicate armed members of Antifa are even on the ground.
Of course not. Why would they?
As CHAZ changed the name of a portion of Seattle, I thought the name Seattle itself was too pedestrian, grounded in historical repression of indigenous people. I suggest New Marx City, Leninville, Stasi Central, Commie City, Che Land, Engels Town or Woke Child Mob City. I like the last one best.
But wait. Not only did CNN celebrate the munificence that is CHAZ, so did the New York Times.
New York Times celebrates Seattle protesters’ ‘Autonomous Zone’: ‘A homeland for racial justice’
by Brian Flood, 6-11-20
The New York Times celebrated Seattle’s six-block area abandoned by law enforcement dubbed “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” as “a homeland for racial justice” on Thursday.
President Trump tweeted late Wednesday that “domestic terrorists” have taken over an area in Seattle amid George Floyd protests. Liberal organizations such as MSNBC and CNN have downplayed or ignored the story, with critics pointing out that the lawlessness doesn’t fit their agenda.
The Times went a different route, embracing the area with a glowing feature, “Free Food, Free Speech and Free of Police: Inside Seattle’s ‘Autonomous Zone.’”
“The entire area was now a homeland for racial justice — and, depending on the protester one talked to, perhaps something more,” Baker wrote. “What has emerged is an experiment in life without the police — part street festival, part commune. Hundreds have gathered to hear speeches, poetry and music.”
It’s truly 1968 all over again, the “summer of love” as Mayor Durkan said.
It’s fun for all. What a romp. Except not quite so much fun for residents not daring to venture out, stick their noses out the door, and a bit of reality crashed in. There was crime. You know, like, eh, real crime. Not in our Utopia!
And the Chief and the Mayor began to part ways.
Seattle Police Chief: ‘We’re Not Able to Get to’ 911 Calls for ‘Rape, Robbery’ in Autonomous Zone
by Tobias Hoonhout, 6-12-20
The head of the Seattle’s Police Department told officers in a video address on Thursday that the decision to abandon the city’s Third Precinct to activists was “not my decision,” and has prevented the department from responding to emergency calls in the Capitol Hill neighborhood.
On Wednesday, the Seattle Police Department said it would try to reopen the East Precinct, and Best was able to visit the location on Thursday. “Our calls for service have more than tripled,” she told reporters. “These are responses to emergency calls — rapes, robberies, and all sorts of violent acts that have been occurring in the area that we’re not able to get to.”
Yes. That was Seattle PD Chief Carmen Best throwing Mayor Jenny under the bus. I wonder how much Seattle is in Best’s future?
Then Chief Best admits her inability to protect the public — in public.
Oh please. You’re helpless? You’re the fucking POLICE CHIEF. https://t.co/8tnEsMQnMt

This article emerged, from King5.
Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan made the call to remove barriers around East Precinct in Capitol Hill
by King5 Staff
“Mayor Durkan concluded the situation could only be deescalated between officers and demonstrators by removing the barriers,” read a statement Thursday evening.
SEATTLE — The office of Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan released a statement Thursday evening saying it was her decision to remove the barriers around the Seattle Police Department’s East Precinct in Capitol Hill.
So let’s ask ourselves: what are we discovering about beautiful downtown CHAZ? First thing that CHAZ did is:
- Erect borders,
- Install armed guards,
- ID checks,
- Control who enters & exits,
- Enable stop & frisk,
- Institute cash shakedowns for “protection” of businesses,
- And the same thing for citizens in their homes.
Hey, what happened to Utopia? Why are these people getting hungry? Why are they requesting — sometimes demanding — some very specific stuff? Did they have that luxury? Apparently so.
Please avoid clothing donations from major labels. Drab/brown clothing preferred. Please remove logos from anything waterproof #CapitalHillAutonomousZone #chaz #chazseattle #chazcomms #seattlechaz
They even had a — dare I say it! — “whiteboard” with a list of necessary supplies. Let’s see. . .
Not to stop at the wholesale giveaway of an entire police precinct, equanimity apparently came into play when Mayor Durkan additionally decided it would be a great idea to give the mob a fire station as well. Who gets to clang the bell and toot the horn?
Bet you didn’t hear this one on chirped out by the American Media Maggots, did you?
Seattle cedes fire station to protesters to turn into community center
by Madison Dibble, 6-12-20
The city of Seattle announced that it would turn a fire station into a community center for black residents after weeks of protests.
The city announced on Thursday that it would be turning over ownership of the fire station to the community in line with a list of demands given to the city from Africatown and other black activist groups.
“We at the City of Seattle understand the urgency behind making bold investments in the Black community and increasing community ownership of land in the Central District,” the city wrote. “The City believes in the vision behind the William Grose Center for Cultural Innovation and we remain committed to making the transfer of Fire Station 6 to the community a reality.”
After all, fuck it, if you don’t need cops then who needs fire protection? Actually, both of those aspects are over-rated.
One thing Seattle forgot: infrastructure is costly. Very costly. And if you want to reactivate a station due to a spate of building expansion, high-rises or a population increase, well, you’re looking at millions of dollars.
In the meantime, CHAZ worried about some very heady stuff. Like: what did CHAZ really mean, and wasn’t it time to change the name?
Seattle’s ‘CHAZ’ Changes Its Name To ‘CHOP,’ Drops ‘Autonomous’ After Complaints
by Emily Zanotti, 6-15-20
Amid concerns that federal officials could storm an “autonomous zone” that had declared itself a separate nation from the United States, residents of Seattle, Washington’s “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” or “CHAZ” have changed their installation’s name to “CHOP” — the “Capitol Hill Organized Protest.”
“CHAZ” was also facing concerns that it was not fully “autonomous” as its name suggested after reporters documented the “independent” “demonstration” receiving pizza and food deliveries, calling the Seattle Fire Department to report a nearby dumpster on fire, calling Seattle Emergency Services for assistance in several medical emergencies, and having dirt, compost and plants trucked in for their “community garden.”
The devil is in fact in the details.
But here’s the reality right now for Seattle residents locked into CHAZ-CHOP. This is what passes for law enforcement there. Lies, no health, no protection, no safety.
Police Chief Carmen Best: ‘There is no cop-free zone in the city of Seattle’
by KIRO News Staff, 6-15-20
SEATTLE — Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best spoke candidly Monday about the occupied protest zone in zone in Capitol Hill, saying there is no area of the city that police cannot respond too.
“SPD will respond to things that threaten life and safety,” Best said.
Best held the press conference after some reports that emergency responders were not able to respond to calls from inside the protest zone, dubbed CHOP or CHAZ, KIRO-7 reported.
But listen to what she said.
Best said that officers did respond to calls last night and observed from a distance but did not see anything that was a threat to life and safety.
Officers “observed from a distance.” That’s certainly sufficient to make folks feel comfortable. “Yep,” they’ll say, “I sure feel better the cops are observing our problems from a distance.” Now that’s American policing.
“We are trying to avoid anything that will escalate. We are working hard to get a peaceful resolution,” she said.
The police chief said that officers will try and coordinate with the victim or caller to meet outside CHOP boundaries whenever possible to avoid conflicts with protesters, KIRO-7 reported.
Okay, read that again. Police will go to the perimeter, the periphery of CHAZ-CHOP, but you’ll have to come to them. Better yet, you come past the border. They can’t or won’t.
Best did say that response times in the East Precinct have been affected broadly and it is taking three times longer for emergency responders to arrive, the TV station reported.
As she was leaving, Best emphasized one last time that officers are responding, and this is “a small fragment of the city that has caused a lot of attention.”
So what part of that made any sense whatsoever in a large American city, circa 2020? We’re the cops, we’re not coming to you? You come to us? We’re too afraid to take back the streets? We might offend someone? We might hurt someone? Pay no attention to those rapes and crimes beyond the borders. They don’t really count.
Listen, if you have the stomach:
Maybe, Chief Best is thinking, if we pretend they don’t exist, they really won’t exist. Then we won’t have to tally them on the backs of our crime reports for FBI statistics. Brilliant!
Time to remind everyone that Leftists, just like Republicans, eat their young. Many times Leftists discover that they are insufficiently left for the Left. CHAZ-CHOP’s self-appointed, armed warlord being one of them.
Irony Overload: Autonomous Zone ‘Warlord’ May Soon Be Canceled after Old Homophobic Tweets Surface
As we’ve previously reported, the Democrat/media-driven rush to “cancel” anyone who decides to think for themselves instead of participating in left-wing groupthink in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd is at a fever pitch, with professors, media figures, and pro-sports icons among those being tossed into the fire left and right.
But in an ironic twist of fate, a cancel notice may soon be coming for Raz Simone, the “warlord” of the radical Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) in Seattle, Washington as old homophobic tweets from his Twitter account have surfaced that appear to be legit based on various web archive websites.
Sad. Dethroned at such an early age for writing “faggot.” The WCM — Woke Child Mob — Purity Test. Even some black dude can’t pass it.
Then came President Trump. “Take back your city,” he said, “or I’ll do it.”
As Thomas Sowell wrote in 2009: “If you are not prepared to use force to defend civilization, then be prepared to accept barbarism.”
But the big question is: what would that look like? Taking back Seattle?
From my perspective, give the people what they want. This is Seattle. Consider the source. The Seattle Mayor wants CHAZ-CHOP undisturbed. We know that Chief Best doesn’t have the guts to apply her officers. And now, having waited so long, we know one thing: the mob is armed with long guns. Look at the photographs above.
Windows of opportunity are frequently open for small periods of time. Seattle had a chance to take back its streets — much less having acquiesced to giving them away in the first place, for no reason whatsoever.
But this is what Seattle wants. The mayor wants it. The governor wants it. The chief is weak and wants to keep her job. And the most important part of all?
This is what people in Washington and specifically, Seattle, voted for. Give it to them. Let them wallow in its splendid cesspool. Let them smell the waste, taste the depths of depravity, know what it feels like to have no one in any government position of authority really care about them, to spout platitudes, to make speeches and, ultimately, to let the residents of CHAZ-CHOP be abandoned. They well and truly are on their own.
I say: let there be actual consequences for stupidity this time. Let this festering dump be just that. Let them wade in their own squalor and filth, courtesy of the Greatness of Leftism.
Because what’s the alternative? That’s right; at this point, a shooting war.
I honestly think Seattle is gone. At least for a time. Perhaps the occupiers of CHAZ-CHOP will lay down their placards and just mumble and shuffle away. But perhaps they won’t.
One thing we do know: the will doesn’t exist, at this point, to bring it back. Not by local or state government. And again I emphasize: give them what they want.
I don’t think that, short of all-out CQB — Close Quarters Battle — you could “take back” Seattle. These people are armed. Let just one “protester” get shot, armed or not — and woe be to the person who happens to shoot an armed or unarmed black “protester,” you’d see this country light up for weeks on end again.
The only way to take Seattle back is with military force, long gun pitched CQB in the midst of civilian Americans.
Guaranteed, that will kill Trump’s chance, Biden will win, and even if Seattle is subdued, it will be given back to Antifa.
Because if you send rivers of blood down the storm drains of a major American city, guaranteed, there will be a civil war. And not just a war of words. I mean an all-out, fighting war with hundreds or perhaps thousands of Americans killed.
It’s not worth the time or effort for anything Leftist. And certainly not 6 blocks or 3 blocks in Seattle.
They want squalor and chaos? Let them eat it.
