Nets Turn Blind Eye to BLM Militantly Taking Over Part of Seattle
News Busters ^ | 6/10/2020 | Nicholas Fondacaro

The so-called “Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone” is a roughly seven-block section of Seattle, Washington where radical Black Lives Matter protesters along with Antifa have essentially declared their own country. They have makeshift living accommodations and armed guards patrolling the perimeter and shaking down businesses unlucky enough to be caught in their secession. It has been days since this nonsense had started and the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) have kept it off the air.

It would seem newsworthy, wouldn’t it?

This weekend will be a hoot. The Purge. If I were a female in that area I’d be very concerned.

Would love to see their reaction when they take over all of Seattle with the mayor and City Council’s approval. I would hope the FAA would make it a “No Fly Zone”.

“We have heard anecdotally reports of citizens and businesses being asked to pay a fee to operate within this area,” Nollette said. “This is the crime of extortion.”

Well...well...

Gee, it would be a real shame if a fire broke out there and the Seattle fire department just couldn’t respond...

Dictatorship by radical Leftists over part of Seattle? No problem...

The media REALLY does not want to have people in the rest of America to notice this.

Yeah but the collateral damage would have to be picked up by the building owners; but a nice idea anyway.

Media bias (attempted brainwashing) can take many forms.

One of the most effective forms of brainwashing is deciding what stories to cover and what stories to ignore.

In any past Marxist revolution, the core radicals always use the more moderate and diverse faction to gain power. Once that is established, they weed out anyone not loyal to their cause. I’m hopeful that this report says the radicals didn’t gain access to the police station and its information; however, do we know for sure there wasn’t a group hidden within the protesters allowed into city hall that were able to access critical information?

ABC did finally report on it, AFTER Trump told Seattle to take it back or he would. Why? Because for ABC it was really just about “reporting” on (attacking) Trump.

Take a deep breath everyone - they only have the power of fear that we grant them.

They didn’t ‘take over’ anything. It’s no different than when ‘Occupy’ would move 300 people into an area and ‘claim it’...

They had no claim - and we laughed at their stupidity.

THIS IS THE SAME.

It’s a bunch of ‘organized’ idiots... ignore them.
