Nothing worth the slightest alarm. Except perhaps at the prospect of drum circles appearing, if it stretches on a few days....

I’m a ma’am btw. And I’m laughing my ass off over that threat. We all are. Who says he’s not a uniter?

Autonomous zones tend to be - ahem - temporary.

(No, seriously, am I the only one who's read Hakim Bey's The Temporary Autonomous Zone? It's like a super famous essay.)

I'm glad--and not surprised to hear that this situation is being grossly overblown. I really hope Inslee and the mayor can keep that trigger-happy, orange shitstain at bay.

Medical or fire, that sort of thing. Otherwise, it is the public in public places and the city officials are wise to stay hands-off

And it really likes this one. Every my (poorer) community of White Center has its own protest. My place of work (Hospital) is having a protest.
We like and are good at protesting. The cops are (usually) used to it.

Trump is a moron trying to use Seattle as his powder kegs. I know he won’t step a foot inside Seattle if it’s public knowledge. Because we would protest the fuck out of that
