Schadenfreude overload: progressive, BLM-supporting Mayor of Olympia, WA calls riots ‘domestic terrorism’ after her home is vandalized
American Thinker ^ | 17 Jun, 2020 | Thomas Lifson

Mayor Cheryl Selby of Olympia, Washington just got her consciousness raised. Her hometown newspaper, The Olympian, reported last Friday: On Friday night, two groups converged in downtown Olympia, and some became destructive, burning flags, smashing windows, and spray painting businesses and Olympia Mayor Cheryl Selby’s home.

Selby and her family were not home last night, but her neighbors began texting her when the protesters arrived at her house.

“I’m really trying to process this,” she told The Olympian over the phone Saturday. “It’s like domestic terrorism. It’s unfair.

“It hurts when you’re giving so much to your community,” she said

I know I am not as good a Christian as I should be because I laughed a little inside and I know I should not have.

People like this strike me as extremely selfish and self-centered, and severely lacking in empathy.

Will she be changing her party affiliation to Republican now that she’s been victimized by criminals?

These idiots in elected office think their woke positions are going to protect them during the revolution.

They should learn from history the existing leaders, no matter how "pure", are more often than not done away with by the revolutionaries.

Seems like rioting, arson, looting, vandalism is righteous protest until it happens to your own house.

Little gut check there, isn’t it Cheryl?

Judging from the interview, I think that it’s a very safe bet that this idiot mayor didn’t come away from this experience any better informed than she was prior to it. Some people just never learn.

She may as well have said: “Thank You, Sir! May I Have Another?”.

What an idiot.

I am enjoying reading about this. I hope it happens again, and that it calls the police and they refuse to help.

But she’ll approve of the cancel culture, burning, rioting, looting and intimidation from those on the “correct” side of the political spectrum. We conservatives must resist the temptation of responding in kind to the left’s barbarity.

These people are so disconnected. If these things had happened in towns run by Republicans, the mayor will be forced to resign. But these are all Democrats protected by a partisan media. That’s why cops with 18 bad marks can stay on the force. They are protecting Democrats so the media won’t report on it.

It really has become like 1984.

According to her socialist logic, it’s not terrorism until HER house is vandalized.

What a moron.

When they say this stuff-I always have to wonder, ‘Do they EVER listen to themselves or to each other?’

There are some real basic elements to truth... is it coherent, consistent, or correct? I mean-it ain't rocket science, yet those things are always missing in Liberal rhetoric
