What’s Next,

Homesteading?

If you want it…and you take it…you can keep it.  Homesteading is back in Seattle. Seattle city mayor Jenny Durkan has taken homeless squatting to a whole other level.  She has ceded several city blocks, including one of the city’s police precincts, to a mob of crazy radicals.  She has not indicated any desire to take it back.  In fact, no one seems to care, not even the people of Seattle.

I’ve never been a fan of Seattle, but now I’m convinced, the crazies didn’t take Seattle.  The crazies have been in charge of it for a long time. You get what you vote for, and this is what the people of Seattle want.

When asked on CNN yesterday, when the occupation might end, Durkan responded that she has no idea and is expecting a “Summer of love” from the occupiers.

The group has declared the area as a new country called Chaz, declaring with signs on its borders stating, “You are now leaving the USA.”  The country of Chaz has a list of demands including the complete abolition of the police department and doing away with courts and prisons.  In addition, they demand free college, free health care, and a free pass from legal accountability against the occupiers.

Meanwhile Washington’s Governor Jay Inslee and Seattle Mayor Durkan have engaged in a pissing contest with President Trump on national television.  The President calling the protesters unlawful occupiers, and the Governor and Mayor referring to them as peaceful-first-amendment “patriots”.

As I see it, Mr. President, you are in a no-win situation.  If you leave Seattle to the crazies, you look weak.  Yet, if you send in the military to use force against mentally ill people, you appear insensitive and overbearing towards a group of “summer-of-love” flower children.

The whole world is watching, and you’re screwed.
