Armed Antifa Mob In Seattle Establishing Checkpoints & Extorting Businesses

A week long standoff in Seattle WA has escalated to the point
where the police station has been abandoned and armed
protestors have set up checkpoints demanding identification
of travelers and business owners are being extorted.

Seattle police say they have received reports of armed guards and potential extortion in a self-declared autonomous zone that spans several blocks and includes a now-closed precinct.

A police chief spoke to CNN; police are now urging business owners
and travelers to call 911 for help if they encounter armed antifa
demanding money and identification.

Nollette said police had received reports that protesters allegedly set up barricades, " with some armed individuals running them as checkpoints into the neighborhood." "While they have a constitutionally-protected right to bear arms, and while Washington is an open carry state, there is no legal right for those arms to be used to intimidate community members," Nollette said, adding that anyone subjected to these demands should call 911. "No one at these checkpoints has the legal authority to demand identification from anyone." Nollette also said police have "heard anecdotally" of residents and businesses being asked to pay a fee if they want to operate in the area. "This is the crime of extortion," Nollette said.

The armed protestors have now published a list of demands.

The protestors near the East Police Precinct are armed.

SEATTLE — Armed protesters now say they're protecting the East Precinct police building after Seattle police officers boarded up the office and left the protest area on Monday. People speaking on Tuesday afternoon said they felt like they could now protest without fear. "People are afraid of the police. Not just the guns and throwing bombs and stuff like that. People are afraid police -— they're above the law. They don't have any accountability. Once they have the badge on there, they can do anything and no one stops it," said Raz Simone, a Seattle musician and protester.

UPDATE:
Jim Fuda, a law enforcement expert and the director of law enforcement
services spoke with Komo news:
Seattle law enforcement experts urge police to take back CHAZ before it's too late

“It can’t continue like that,” “Some action is going to have to be taken. Is there federal laws broken? Does the FBI need to come in? But at some point, arrests and these people are going to have to be removed, if they don’t move.”

The mob is calling on the Mayor to resign, even though
she is allowing this insurrection to continue. This is a
very unstable situation. Will post any updates later
in the thread....

This is a developing situation -

Unbelievable.
Police need to enforce some law and order.

a reply to: burntheships

But.... this is what the people wanted.... isn't it?

Nothing is against the law if there is nobody to enforce it. They actually have more authority because they are now making the rules and enforcing them.

strange times. Here's a look inside the "autonomous zone"

a reply to: burntheships

I am curious as to what these protestors/communist seperatists think they will achieve in this escapade of nonsense.
If they are lucky,they will get rounded up and imprisoned,and they will have changed nothing.
If they are unlucky,they will end up getting shot and nothing will change.

I cannot see how this will end well for them,their group,or the city.
Have they even thought about the possible outcomes for themselves?

Here is a word for you -

de·lu·sion·al
/dəˈlo͞oZH(ə)nəl/
adjective
adjective: delusional

The protestors are delusional!

" characterized by or holding idiosyncratic beliefs or impressions that are contradicted by reality or rational argument, typically as a symptom of mental disorder"

In many similar situations the FBI would already be
involved, maybe they are now it is unclear. These
protestors are sadly delusional if they think this
will fly for much longer.

The actual people involved are probably all pawns, but.. Their ideology is largely in line with the corporate-political structure attempting to implement their agenda.

On their own, these all just seem to be some kids that havent ever dealt with "real life" yet. However, if they are backed by some of these corpolitical forces.. It could spell much bigger trouble than many think.

Even the governor of Washington didn't know what was happening in Seattle, until a reporter told him at a press briefing.

Let me get this straight, these are liberals right? First thing they do after taking over the area is establish a BORDER. Lol.
So are they for or against open borders?
I also read yesterday they already ran out of vegan food and asked for donations.
Just switch off electricity, water and wifi.
They can't even be one day without soy products, lets see them struggle without their special foods and internet.

I feel ashamed for them. Whilst people all around the world are kept as slaves, sex slaves, domestic slaves, construction slaves, women are raped, some can't even work on the fields in Africa because guys are hiding in the bushes, raping them every day. Women are killed 2-4 a week by a male partner in the UK, women have to endure genital mutilation of which many die due to infections.
There are feral children on the streets, eating rubbish, getting high on solvents.

If any of these were rescued and told they could live in the USA, the only thing is that it may be that they perceive the world as if not everyone totally loves them. They would cut their extremities off for that opportunity and safety.

All these people are suffering actual oppression, sexism, racism [arabs vs blacks or phillippinos], will never see their families again or end up being killed for no reason but what I just listed.

And here are these frigging wet vegan virtue signalling wet blankets, wearing the newest trainers and having mobile phones, protesting against racism because colour is involved but no evidence of actual racism.

They shouls be ashamed. If I could help anyone right now in the world it would be those that really need help and not those who live in the richest country on the planet, where everyone who works hard has the same opportunities.

Come on guys, it's protection money 😋

The "easy life" of the western world has led many of these people to believe they are fighting some of the worlds worst problems. Thats not mentioning the manipulation that gets them to that position, either. Just plaster a certain type of story on the news and social media repeatedly over the years, and folks start to think thats the most important Scause there ever was.

Its next to impossible to put numbers on it, but I suspect there are more slaves in the world today than there have ever been.

Thats not talking about the ideological slavery that exists, but actual slaves. We just sweep it under the rug and compartmentalize it by less offensive terms like "human trafficking."

And weve got these kids asking for vegan meat substitutes and soy products because they ran out of food in their "autonomous" zone. Such a disconnect..

I think this was planned to get Trump's attention, and draw him in.

He has already stated that if the mayor, or governor, doesn't restore order, he will.

If the National Guard is called in by Trump, and it turns into a # show, with some Antifa members injured, or killed, then the Democrats will use it to force Trump out of office, or let MSM chastise him 24/7 to damage his reputation, like they do now.

The Democrats will resort to any tactic to make Trump look bad before the upcoming election.

Indeed, I think that even at this point there are
some people that think this is fun and games.
Till someone gets hurt...

I want them stopped but who is going to do it. There is no police in the area. They abandoned their position.

I am pretty sure that they think since they are associated with
Antifa, or loosely associated that they are protected by
the Governor. Although, it is really unclear if Inslee was aware
of what is happening, or if he is playing dumb.

However, many critics in Seattle media say the Governor should have recognized the severity of the issues facing the Seattle Police Department being pushed back. Per orders from City Hall and Mayor Jenny Durkan, the police were prohibited not to use rubber bullets or tear gas to push back the large crowd of rioters, who eventually forced them out. The police pulled out everything of value they could from the East Seattle precinct building, boarded it up, and left.

The governor is directing questions to city officials.
Inslee is seriously incompetent.

Heres the solution.

Canadian County, OK Sheriff starting up a Posse

West sent out a news release Tuesday afternoon, saying in part the posse would be used as a “rapid response force of citizens who could be called upon ‘in a minute’s notice’ to answer the call to aid in safeguarding lives and property, as well as the constitutional rights of innocent law-abiding citizens of Canadian County.”

The application says no prior LE or MIL experience needed

But i guess this only helps if you have a sheriff and community that want to be proactive.

Lol
Now we know why biden beat his ass in the dnc primaries

What a jackass

This is a job for our Armed forces, an elite squad could go and eradicate the city of these terrorists. If someone starts to try to take over any part of our country, it is a military issue, they are terrorists and we should treat them as a military threat to Americans.

This action is different than a riot, this is an attempt to take over a community. These are Americans living and working there, this needs to be addressed quickly and stopped so this kind of thing is stopped and nobody attempts to make slaves out of our citizens. This has nothing to do with race. If our military leaders disagree,then maybe we should replace them in this case. By a few Generals saying they disagreed with Trump, this kind of thing took place because Antifa saw they could get away with it and attempt to take over a city.
