+OverSword Posted January 21, 2021 #1 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I thought this would stop once trump out of office but I should have better: Quote SEATTLE — Several buildings were damaged and multiple people were arrested Wednesday night after protests against President Biden and Federal agencies turned violent on Seattle streets. Dozens of demonstrators started marching Wednesday afternoon from Occidental Park and made their way through Downtown Seattle. The protest first centered around an office building at 1000 2nd Avenue which houses the offices of ICE agents and Federal Immigration Court. Protesters burned American flags and dropped flyers calling for the abolition of ICE, something Biden’s administration said Wednesday they would not do.

WOW that's a shocker! If it had anything to do with Trump it'd be reported everywhere over and over again. The hypocrisy is astonishing. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one of the highest rate of college degrees in the nation. Seattle is one of the best educated city in America...or is that one of the most indoctrinated by communism loving college professors.

Arrests were made as groups gathered in Portland Wednesday, according to Portland Police. Police say one group got in the way of officers who were responding to a crash in Northeast Portland. https://katu.com/news/local/arrests-made-during-portland-protests-group-delays-officers-responding-to-crash-police-s 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may not be national news because the press is going to do everything in their power for the next four years to make our executive branch seem like the greatest thing ever and riots concerning Biden's announced policies don't look good. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the elements rioting now were chanting very un-MLK-like chants. About 1/4 of way through I was just sad thinking these people have no idea who MLK was. I will not be attending another, not in this crazy place with these idiots. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also remember the night he was assassinated clearly. Just 2 months before Bobby Kennedy. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there were no riots in Albuquerque or Santa Fe, and if there were in Phoenix I would have heard from relatives, and if riots were going to happen it seems it would have been in the anti-Biden areas, not the ones that are labeled "liberal" like Portland and Seattle, so what was it really about? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because these are people that think the only way to fix America is to destroy it and start over from the ground up. They are very indoctrinated with all kinds of slogans and unrealistic visions of how things should be. My honest opinion is they are young and very stupid. Very stupid. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone less lazy than me would have to look it up but I imagine LA had less a portion of their total pop being college educated young white people. But who knows.

Portland Oregon last night. Four protests scheduled. Two were peaceful. Two were violent and destructive. ICE headquarters and Democratic Party Headquarters vandalized, police attacked. So far 8 have been arrested, maybe more on the way. There were about 200 in the crowd, some at least self-described as anarchists. They had a sign, "We don't want Biden we want revenge." https://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/2021/01/inauguration-day-in-oregon-protests-celebrations-expected-gov-kate-brown-cheers-a-new-chapter.html 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
