A teenager has been shot and killed inside a section of Seattle that has been taken over by protesters.

Authorities said another person was critically injured in the shooting at about 2:30am on Saturday local time in the area known as CHOP, which stands for "Capitol Hill Occupied Protest"

Officers responding to the shooting initially said they had trouble getting to the scene because they were "were met by a violent crowd that prevented officers safe access to the victims," Seattle Police said on their blog.

"Homicide detectives responded and are conducting a thorough investigation, despite the challenges presented by the circumstances," police said.

"Violence has now besieged the area known as CHOP, and it is no longer the summer of love, it's the summer of chaos," Mike Solan, head of a union representing more than 1,000 of Seattle's police officers, said.

Seattle City Council member Kshama Sawant expressed her condolences and said the man who died was black.

"and I told my people, STOP THE TESTING"

Ignorance may be bliss, but he's killing people with his ignorance.

And the morons cheer his misplaced bravado

They ardent followers remind me of the townsfolk of Rock Ridge in "Blazing Saddles". Same dizzying intellect, same gullible nature.

 Speaking of townsfolk, easily duped https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flS7n3HpLp8.

For you fathers among us, Happy Father's Day!

I'm certainly glad I don't have kids like that.

These kids, however, were smart then.

Wonder what a follow-up interviews would reveal?

Ocasio-Cortez claimed that teens “flooded the Trump campaign w/ fake ticket reservations & tricked you into believing a million people wanted your white supremacist open mic enough to pack an arena during COVID.

Maybe so. If so, it shows a real understanding in terms of how the new media can be manipulated, and how the political world is being reshaped.

Cowards in Cars. A new reality.

Right-wing extremists are turning cars into weapons, with reports of 50 vehicle-ramming incidents since protests against police violence erupted nationwide in late May.

At least 18 are categorized as deliberate attacks; another two dozen are unclear as to motivation or are still under investigation, according to a count released Friday by Ari Weil, a terrorism researcher at the University of Chicago's Chicago Project on Security and Threats. Weil has tracked vehicle ramming attacks, or VRAs, since protests began.

The 20 people facing prosecution in the rammings include a state leader of the Virginia Ku Klux Klan, as well as a California man who was charged with attempted murder after antagonizing protesters and then driving into them, striking a teenage girl. Video footage of some attacks shows drivers yelling at or threatening Black Lives Matter protesters before hitting the gas.

Had to be.  That area was segregated, sadly.

Not as segregated as your diseased mind, you moldy crumbled cracker.

Why didn’t you go to Tulsa?

Wouldn’t they have excepted your thumbprint as a signature on the death warrant or waiver or whatever they were calling it?
