Gates must have listened to that old song sung by Perry Como, Seattle... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oRVwciEfbY. Look at her now.
This is What "No Police" Looks Like in SeattleProtesters have taken over the area around the East Police Precinct in Seattle. The precinct building has now been abandoned by the police.
The protesters are now calling the area they control "The Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone."
So what goes on in this police free zone?
The Seattle Times reports:
[Assistant Seattle police chief Deanna Nollette] said police have heard from Capitol Hill community members that some protesters have set up barricades in the neighborhood – and are apparently demanding to see people’s ID, and in some instances, residents and business owners have been asked to pay a fee to operate in a roughly six-block area around the precinct.
Meanwhile, Forbes magazine reports that protesters in Seattle took over City Hall for about an hour Tuesday night and demanded the resignation of the city’s mayor.
@Badecker this was expected as people are foolishly trying to take the power away from the police, and hand it over to a bunch of protesters who are not duty bound to protect them, or even follow the general laws in place.
Also Bill gates has tweeted his support for the Black life’s matter campaign after several Microsoft employees asked Microsoft bosses to support the campaign, but it’s unclear for now what kind of support will Microsoft actually offer?.
