SEATTLE — There are few physical reminders of activists’ occupation of an anti-police “autonomous zone” here two years ago, but a backlash of rising crime and police resignations has spread far beyond the boundaries of the Capitol Hill neighborhood where the infamous protest took place.
The takeover known as the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest or CHOP lasted a month and became a symbol of a social justice movement that spun out of control. The city has yet to fully recover.
The Seattle Police Department said violent crime soared 20% last year to a 14-year high. Property crime was up 9%.
Even worse, shootings in the city were up 75% in the first five months of this year, despite Washington state’s tough gun-safety laws.

Let Seattle wallow in the crime the radical left wanted and got !
BLM/ANTIFA, What a bunch of criminal thugs. Why has a civilized society put up with them for so long? Is it because the left has lost respect for itself and will join with any criminal organization to prove a point. I am disappointed with republicans too. Are you telling me we are so divest of courage we can’t find a few brave men, or women?.Where is our passion? Our strength of purpose? I’m old, 93. I can remember when we were much braver. Much more American.
They voted for the trash so let them rot.
Biden’s WEAK STANCE on everything only enforces the
“Soros Backed” Judges and Prosecutors to take a vacation from their “RESPONSIBILITIES” and “CODDLE CRIMINALS” like they are FAMILY MEMBERS so they can break the LAW multiple times and get back out on the streets to “Rob, Rape, Murder, No Country does this!
Elect Democommies and you get what you get!
