Antifa Update for June 20

Two shot in the Seattle Zone. One Killed, the other critically wounded. Via Red State and the Seattle PD Blotter:

Officers attempted to locate a shooting victim but were met by a violent crowd that prevented officers safe access to the victims. Officers were later informed that the victims, both males, had been transported to Harborview Medical Center by CHOP medics. 

Officers responded to Harborview and were informed that one of the victims, a 19-year-old male, had died from injuries. The other victim, also a male, unknown age, remains in the hospital with life-threatening injuries. 

Seattle Police Officers Guild President Michael Solan told “Fox & Friends Weekend” host Pete Hegseth that it is “no longer the summer of love” like Democratic Mayor Jenny Durkan claimed, but the “summer of chaos.” 

“Early this morning, that violence was raw and real where one of our community members lost their life and police are still not allowed into that area and were prevented to providing that police service to the area to locate victims and/or render aid. [It’s] very troubling what’s going on.” [….] 

Uh, no sh*t, Sherlock. I wonder what the rest of America thinks of this. Maybe we can take a poll on it once we figure everyone has returned from purchasing more guns.

“It can’t stand in America, and this is a direct result of city leadership, elected officials failing the reasonable community of Seattle to enforce the rule of law,” Solan told Hegseth.

More precisely, it's a direct result of Dems being put in positions of responsibility.

Related: My wife heard that in Chicago rapid transit ridership is down 80%. Who thinks that's gonna turn around--ever? Ridership has been declining for years, and has accelerated in the past few years as every day brings news of rapid transit shutdowns because of violent crime. That, of course, means loss of minority jobs, huge revenue shortfalls, etc. I have no doubt similar trends are occurring in most major cities.

And in Atlanta the white girl who torched Wendy's has been identified as a known far left activist, Natalie White (!). An arrest warrant has been issued.
