Antifa Militants Seize Seattle Police HQ, Set Up ‘Autonomous Zone’

“…Just as the Islamic State (ISIS) claimed territory in Iraq and Syria, antifa militants have claimed territory in Seattle, Wash. According to reports on the ground from The Post Millennial’s Andy Ngo and Townhall’s Julio Rosas, protesters and antifa instigators have seized land in the Capitol Hill area around the Seattle Police East Precinct. Like ISIS, the rioters appear to have decided on setting up a government in their occupied territory, naming it “Free Capitol Hill.”

“Seattle [Mayor Jenny Durkan] is allowing a dangerous situation to fester. [Antifa] militants have taken over & created an ‘autonomous zone’ in city w/their own rules. Police precinct abandoned. Antifa set up barricades to create a border. Calling for volunteers to provide armed guard,…”

Normally I wouldn’t think much of it, but the leadership in Seattle is so bad, so weak, this could get away from them. In case you were wondering:

James d’Orma “Dorm” Braman (December 23, 1901 – August 21, 1980) was the 45th mayor of Seattle, Washington from 1964 to 1969. He was the last Republican mayor of Seattle.

51 straight years of Democrat control in Seattle. Can you tell?

I respect Colin Powell’s service and he’s entitled to his opinion, like every other American. But he hasn’t voted Republican for sixteen years. Apparently John McCain and Mitt Romney were “too extreme” for Secretary Powell. https://t.co/hf2Q14pwqN

I like Colin Powell. Unfortunately I see him as a species of Washington Politico. The kind that Trump ran against. This species includes Republicans, Democrats, entrenched bureaucrats, and MSM “journalists.”

This crowd needs to be removed and replaced by a new set of people.

Democrat Cities: Fourth-World Scourges

“…When the terrorists become bored and cease terrorizing, when the flames are extinguished, when those who died in the riots are buried and cremated, when the shards of glass from storefronts are disposed of, and when livelihoods are permanently lost, Democrats will still run the vast majority of the deadliest and most dangerous cities in the U.S.

Death and destruction always follow Democrat policies and culture.  Stagnant local economies.  Unsafe streets for children.  Gun crime.  Failing schools.  Breathtaking corruption.  Problems with the police.  Property crime.  Poverty.  Poor public health.  Single- or no-parent homes.  All are found in abundance in Democrat-run cities, and found overwhelmingly in majority-black neighborhoods…”

David Solway:

“…We live in an age characterized by belief — that is, belief in things that do not exist, belief in complete figments of unanchored imagination, abstractions that have no contact with or bearing on reality. Call it the age of irrealism, of pervasive virtuality, of estrangement from the objective world.

Consider several popular notions or beliefs, memes as they are sometimes called, which operate as delusions erroneously confirmed as fact.

• • There are more than two sexes, biology notwithstanding. Indeed, there are “57 Varieties” of gender. Also, in contradiction, gender is a “social construct.”
  • Islam is a “religion of peace.”
  • The university campus is aswarm with female victims of rape and sexual assault.
  • The planet is entering a carboniferous period as temperatures rise to unsustainable levels.
  • There is an organized and historical campaign in the Judeo-Christian West of men against women known as the “Patriarchy.”
  • There is a vast movement of White Supremacists ruthlessly oppressing those of other races and creeds.
  • America is bedeviled by institutional racism.
  • There is no such thing as truth.
  • Looting, vandalism and physical violence are legitimate forms of civil protest.
  • The value of people derives from their membership in a group rather than from their status as unique individuals…”

Democrats have run Minneapolis for generations. Why is there still systemic racism?

George Korda:

“…Minneapolis, Minn. has been under Democratic control since 1978. Chicago has been under Democratic control for 89 years; its present mayor is a black woman. Philadelphia has had Democratic mayors for 68 years; three of its last five mayors have been black men. Six of the last seven Atlanta, Ga., mayoral administrations were led by black Democratic mayors, and the present mayor is a black woman.

“A city runs its police department and other services; therefore, if there is so much ‘systemic racism’ in these organizations, why hasn’t it been corrected over so many years under Democratic leaders?

“Why aren’t these cities garden spots of racial tolerance, understanding, and virtue?”

There have been no answers…”
