"Simply put, the legislation gives officers NO ability to safely intercede to preserve property in the midst of a large, violent crowd," reads a letter from Seattle Chief of Police, Carmen Best - who added that thanks to the City Council, "Seattle Police will have an adjusted deployment in response to any demonstrations this weekend."

What a stupid comment given the circumstances.
This is a Seattle problem; not Washington State. No sign of this kind of stuff (Marxist city government) where I live in eastern Washington.
Does Washington have a Castle Doctrine law or Stand Your Ground law?
My state has both, plus Shall Issue CCW. Castle Doctrine here means that trespassing during hours of darkness assumes unlawful intent and can be met with deadly force.
If our governor or mayor ever say that “our police cannot be everywhere to protect you”, it means “look to your arms”.
I hope millions across America look at the government-caused horror in Portland and vote accordingly.
Add in Snohomish - these are the top three: King, Sno., Pierce. Jeff not so much.
Why should they? After all, the citizens of Seattle voted for this.
In the end a people get the exact government they deserve

Yep, elections have consequences.
No they won't.
They will just dig in harder to their untenable positions. Leftists always double-down when confronted. The only way things can change is when they are removed. And they will not leave their offices voluntarily or peacefully.
Plan accordingly.
Oh trust me, that police chief will absolutely enforce the law but only against the people trying to protect themselves and their property from the criminal democrats called antifa.
*************
Watch the police spring into action when the mob decides to overrun city hall or attack any of the council members.
Get ready folks!
DA’s, “Civil Rights Nazis”, ANTIFA, BLM, and Cops are ready to come after you if you dare defend yourselves.
At this point, they’ve declared war.
The state and local governments are acting as praetorian guard for a criminal mob.
Local pols aiding and abetting the destruction of American cities before our eyes... and nobody is doing a fkn thing about it.
We are running out of places to run to for safety.
We must take back State Governments and isolate the cancer in the major cities. Many of our cultural, academic, economic and political institutions are too far gone to save and will have to be scrapped. But a large percentage of the population wants the Leftist totalitarian society to which we are presently headed. They believe they will be in charge of things, or at least that that they will get plenty of "free stuff". Most of them will never give up those beliefs.
It's a complex problem with no pleasant solutions. Interesting times.
Jeff is mostly PT which has been historically full lune since the 1980s-1990s
“Progressivism kills.”
Concise, complete.
“In the end a people get the exact government they deserve”
In the end a people get the exact government they vote for.
I know - my folks live in JeffCo.
So, have the deputized the entire, lawful population? That’s the key to all of this.
Water cannons with gasoline plus flare guns.
Police ARE being told to 'stand down' by duly elected officers of their respective cities...
What's YOUR solution TO that banana?
You want the police to break the law and go rogue? Get fired so only obedient goons are left? Is that a 'solution'?
YOU banana just stepped forward to condemn the cops when you should have condemned democrat mayors and city council thugs. YOU know - THE PEOPLE WHO GAVE THE STAND DOWN ORDER.
Then ask yourself - how long do we have to come up with a solution to dealing with these thug mayors? My guess is until they steal the election (with fraud and intimidation) and put dementia Joe in office.
Sounds apocalyptic...
