So these malcontents now have a list of demands? Now they're domestic terrorists. They can fuck right off. It shouldn't be long til the Nat'l guard removes them since the POS governor or mayor won't get the job done. Terrorism is a federal crime and the feds can step in. In time this is gonna escalate and someone will be hurt or killed.

Do you always falsely label peaceful protesters as terrorists and demand that govt step in to suppress their speech just because you disagree with it?

Why yes he does.
Something Trump and his supporters seem to all have in common too. Every time they hear speech they disagree with, they have to make up something to call it 'treason' or 'terrorism' and demand the govt suppress it.

I've watched this and about 10 others about the autonomous some. Why?
What's your issue with what's goin on there? Protesters were abused for almost two weeks by police. They had the will to force those police to back down. Are you not a fan of the first amendment?

The 1a doesn't require that he agree with the speech or that he can't have an opinion about it. He's certainly entitled to that as his own speech.
It's that other poster who hates the 1a with his demands that the Natl Guard be brought in to suppress this 'terrorist' speech since police brutally couldn't finish that job.

There's more than free speech going on. They're breaking other laws. And lol at them saying it's a police free zone. Do you honestly think there's no laws being broken? Blocking city streets... Tagging everything... Vandalizing property... That's all good?

Plus, it looks terrible. Would you take your family there? Would you feel safe taking 7 year olds there? Your grandma?

You do know that Fox news and other right-wing media were already exposed as lying on all that, right? Or do you just not care?

So when you watch videos of it, you don't see any of that? And idk about fox I don't watch them. All I know is what I've seen of people recording their experiences on YouTube.

So just gloss over the fact that this all came about from the cops attacking protesters. It looks fine and nothing life the right wings media has made it out to be using faked images.

You sure you haven't been tainted by propaganda. I know you had been in the past.

Yeah, I've seen youtube videos about this too. I also have good friends in Seattle who visited the area to see what was going on and told me about it. Nothing that you described is true. In fact, it's freakin weird how blatantly right-wingers and the right-wing media are lying about this one, as if no one could find out for themselves what's going on.

If cops use excessive force, prosecute them. The answer to violence is not anarchy and more violence. Maybe we disagree on that.

ohh Boo Hoo!! You should be more concerned about your favorite news organization --
Promoting anarchy with made up facts --

Rupert Murdoch’s Fox News has been caught red-handed using digitally altered photos in its coverage of a section of the city that has become a centre of protest against police brutality and racial injustice.

On Saturday, Fox News included an editor’s note at the top of at least three stories on its website covering Seattle’s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ), saying it replaced a “home page photo collage” because it “did not clearly delineate between these images” and that it “mistakenly” included a Minnesota photo in a slideshow about Seattle.

This drum is definitely being beaten by Fox. Just flipped over to see alternate reality channel and the chyron is "Welcome to US new neighbor CHOP. For all you Fox viewers, you are the only ones who care. Of course it was Tucker's show.

You need to check out the links about FOX news lying and doctoring photos to push thei agenda of violence and lawlessness!
Let me play the Black card I have friends who are black and own a food truck that as we speak is selling food in that area and they feel very safe!

It is clear Seattle is going to make some long term changes and also clear the cops did not handle the protest properly. Why are you so worked up over this story?

I think you are over invested from being a victim of propaganda. We know you have had a history of that. Might be something to to work on?

Did your family go visit the area and personally see for themselves, like my friends did?
I used to live in Ballard BTW, off 14th just a couple blocks behind the Ballard Market.
