Large Rally for Police In Seattle: ‘S-P-D!’​

JOEL B. POLLAK

9 Aug 2020

Hundreds of protesters supporting the Seattle Police Department gathered . . . to show their support for law enforcement on the day before the City Council will vote whether to “defund the police.” . . .
A pro-police “Back the Blue” rally is being held outside of City Hall. The Seattle Police Officers Guild helped organize the protest.

The group is calling on city council to not defund SPD. . .

On Monday, the council is expected to review a final set of amendments before taking a final vote on what some members say is the first step toward defunding Seattle police.

The council has already approved a series of amendments that eliminated the department’s mounted police, SWAT team and Navigation Team.

Turnout for the pro-police demonstration was large, with local news reporting a “large” rally:

Hundreds of people outside of City Hall with a message to defend @SeattlePD ahead of tomorrow’s City Council vote aimed to defund parts of the department. This rally is being put on by @SPOG1952. A group protesting this one is on the other side of 4th Ave #KOMONews . . .
. . . A far smaller group of counter-demonstrators, many wearing the black garb of left-wing Antifa activists, also appeared . . .

. . . Nevertheless, the Democrat-dominated City Council — with eight Democrats and one Socialist — approved a proposal last month to cut funding to the Seattle Police Department by 50%, and to “imagine life beyond policing.” . . .
 
Remember. The CHOP occupation only was terminated AFTER the left, went after their own leftist politicians too. (Bold below mine.)

. . . Seattle has been at the epicenter of left-wing efforts to “defund the police,” and was the site of the “Capitol Hill Occupied Protest,” or CHOP, which took over several city blocks for several weeks in June. The occupation began . . .

It ended only after left-wing activists led a march to Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan’s private residence, after which she ordered it dismantled.

Durkan and Gov. Jay Inslee had resisted President Donald Trump’s offer of federal law assistance in clearing the CHOP, which Durkan had described as a “Summer of Love” and a “block party.”


On Friday, the New York Times belatedly acknowledged that the CHOP had been a nightmare for local residents and small business, with bands of armed Antifa and Black Lives Matter activists commanding the streets.

There were several shootings in the CHOP, including the murder of Horace Lorenzo Anderson Jr. Police were reportedly obstructed by CHOP activists as they attempted to evacuate the wounded man.

In the aftermath . . . residents have faced continued violent protest from left-wing activists. Some riots have included the use of explosives . . .

The west coast cities have all gone mad, embracing evil ideologies and allowing terrorists to fester. I pray no more churches are attacked, and that the rule of law is returned. I don’t know how that can happen when the city and state governors have abdicated all semblance of responsible constitutional governance. Hence I pray.
 
Absurd.

“911, what is your emergency?”

“My front door was just kicked in by a group of armed masked people!”

“We will send officers to your house once we get clearance from BLM and other leftist groups. Until then, shelter in place, and you may ought to consider praying.”

To not authorize LEO’s, one had best be well armed with plenty of ammo, because that will remove all fear from the criminals you worry about at night.
