Exactly. Patriots to who? Anarchy?

Looting away again in SaccoVenzettiville
Looking my molotov cocktail
Some people say that Trump is to blame
But I know, I’m liberally insane!

What is Chaz?

Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone.

Autonomous Zone is a traditional anarchist concept in which people declare an area to be free from any political control.

Like any any other socialist 'Utopia' this pathetic little block party will fall apart. It does, however, present the perfect opportunity for the President to hang this cluster foxtrot around the RATs heads as they defend it!

I predict after it fails the RATs will whine how beautiful the effort was but that the people there were not the Nobel Souls needed to make it work.

If you are the owner of a “nonessential business” then I suggest you call it an “ autonomous zone”

This Mayor has a serious mental disorder.
And is delusional.

And noticeably absent from the dialogue are comments by Washington and Oregon politicians. Why?

Seattle is 66% white, 14% asian, 9% hispanic, and only 7% black.

This lily white mayor is throwing 93% of her citizens under the bus for a black low-life from another city, who was killed by a rogue cop, hired by a Democrat police force, in a Democrat city, in a Democrat state. Insane.

If the citizens of Seattle are stupid enough to keep voting Democrat, they deserve to see their city burn to the ground.

Re How many banks in the area -

I am more worried about the Armory at the Police Station.

Seattle has been all about hallucinogenic drugs longer than most other cities.

As for a revenue source for the Free State of Capitol Hill, all they have to do is blockade the Starbucks and Amazon headquarters and demand they pay a “tax” as payment for their white privilege. Or maybe it will just be called “insurance” against bad things happening.

This is like the kids building a sofa cushion fort in the den and declaring it an autonomous zone. They’re totally dependent on dad paying the electric bill and mom bringing them cheese sandwiches for lunch.

It sounds like the dialogue of Monty Python:

“We’re an anarcho-syndicalist commune! We’re taking turns to act as a sort of executive-officer-for-the-week, but all the decisions *of* that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting by a simple majority, in the case of purely internal affairs - but by a two-thirds majority, in the case of more major issues.”

“Help! Help! We’re being repressed!!”

The problem is.. the whites in Seattle don’t see themselves as being thrown under a bus. They’re liberal by a huge majority.

The mayor should be executed for aiding and abetting armed insurrection.

Guy Benson dubbed it "communist cosplay" which is spot on.

The Seattle government is trying to frame it as a block party (but the "right now" is slightly ominous):

Mayor Jenny Durkan said on June 11 that "we have four blocks in Seattle that is more like a block party atmosphere. It's not an armed takeover. It's not a military junta. We will make sure that we will restore this but we have block parties and the like in this part of Seattle all the time. ...there is no threat right now to the public".

Quote is from Wikipedia.

The eastern counties of Washington state should secede.

I’m a limited government Conservative. I like the US Constitution very much because it was intended to sharply constrain the federal government.

In my younger days, I pushed the concept of limited government a lot farther and I supported philosophical anarchism. Specifically anarcho-syndicalism. The Monty Python bit always amused me. As far as theory goes, syndicalism can have some appeal because it puts people directly in charge of their own situation. They have real “skin in the game” and would be unlikely to tolerate scams and corruption that only benefit some distant political class.

However, as I grew up and recognized the truth of Human Nature, I realized that Anarchism — avoidance of all government — isn’t a workable idea. You need some kind of government. Some degree of authorized force in order to maintain a civil society. Without rules, you have nothing.

These kids in Seattle may never grow up. They may switch from anarcho-syndicalism to full-blown Communist Dictatorship. Hey! Let’s all be like North Korea! Everyone seems happy there!

The Constitution was overthrown on Usurpation Day.
Both parties cooperated to put Obama in the office the Constitution says he may not hold.
