      XPost: uw.general, alt.politics.republicans, alt.fan.rush-limbaugh       XPost: sac.politics, talk.politics.guns       From: yourdime@outlook.com              For old times' sake, let's do a quick flashback to only a year ago, when       stalwart local independent Seattle journalist Jonathan Choe was       documenting the goings-on at the University of Washington's Seattle       campus.              The Hamasholes, much as they were on campuses across the country, had set       up little tents and were camping out on university property and amusing       themselves by harassing, threatening, and intimidating Jewish students.       This was all in the name of unity with the Palestinian cause as well as a       way of forcing the school into divesting from anything associated with       Israel and local employer Boeing, whose bombs and aircraft were used by       Israelis in the fight against the scourge that is Hamas.                     Here it is a year later, and darned if the little imps aren't still full       of piss and vinegar...although, in all honesty, it's still mostly piss.              They've gotten themselves worked back up into lather over Boeing again but       decided to change their protest threads from colorful, hippe-style       bandanas and dirty t-shirts of assorted Palestinian greens, whites, and       reds to a more slimming, 'we mean business' universal black ensemble.              With bags over their heads - that, at least, is sort of an improvement       from an aesthetic viewpoint.              I mean, if this doesn't scream malevolent, needy, porculent Teenage Mutant       Ninja Turtle larper, nothing does.                     It also shrieks 'pay my student loans,' but that's another post for       another day.              So, anyway, the kiddoes were back to vicious mischief as only they do it,       starting this past Monday (as John covered here yesterday), which is when       they caught my attention.              There's a brand-spankin' new and very expensive building on the U of W       campus, called the Interdisciplinary Engineering Building (IEB). It       attracted the notice and raised the ire of the 'student' body, Hamasholes,       and their friends, thanks to some of its construction and very expensive       scientific equipment being paid for by Boeing. The major portion of the       project was a $50M contribution from WA state taxpayers.              The nasty little cretins decided that they would block to entrance to the       new facility and occupy the building and they made no bones about their       intentions.                     When these pictures were taken Monday afternoon, supposedly the Seattle       Police Department was en route to take charge and clear the area...or at       least the brand-new building.                     What happened next is Seattle in a nutshell, emphasis on the 'nut.'              The protestors ran the UW campus security agents off with barely any       effort and some harsh language.                     And then they did the exact same thing to the Seattle cops when they       showed up - cops slithered ignominiously away in the face of the black-       clad urban terrorists.              Herded like sheep down the hill.                     Most disgusting thing I've ever seen or damn near.              Then they went back to building barricades and setting fires.                     While Seattle PD mewled about having 'thirty minutes to clear the area.'                     Yeah. Right.              Electric bikes that had been added to the racks in the barricades on fire       started cooking off.                     The cops finally went in, got the place cleared after facing a barrage of       stones and other projectiles, and found the beautiful new science building       and all that fabulous equipment basically destroyed. The building is going       to be closed for at least the rest of the year.                     The savages swear they'll be back.                     Thirty of the thugs were arrested, including one who is an attorney with       the county's public defender's office.                     Five have already been released, including this same clown. Misdemeanors.                     ...where a judge found probable cause for the arrests for Criminal       Trespass in the First Degree, a gross misdemeanor.              The case has not been sent from investigators to prosecutors for a       charging decision yet. Charging decisions routinely come after a first       appearance hearing, where probable cause can be found for an arrest.              Those that have been released are Sam Seouka, with the public defender's       office, Oliver Brown, Lucas Nicolas McAuslan, and Genevieve Konijiksy              The university president sent out an 'I'm horrified' statement, and the       Seattle media called them 'masked activists...staging a blockade' while       reporting on the takeover and subsequent riot.              Just another day in Seattle.              Like yesterday was when the same-minded, black clad, 'masked activists'       viciously attacked folks attending the event featuring Riley Gaines that       David wrote about earlier.                     Flying poo is the perfect analogy.              Just another evening out in the Third World s**thole that is Seattle.              I am almost to the point where I feel as if I'm insulting the Third World       using that phrase.              How have the seismic readings been in the Olympic chain lately? Mt St       Helens quiet? No wisps of smoke, no rumbles in that subterranean belly?              Surely, as this city spirals into unrecoverable darkness, a reckoning of       epic proportions has to be coming...in some fashion.              And they may not get to choose their destructor.              https://hotair.com/tree-hugging-sister/2025/05/07/the-university-of-       washington-and-city-of-seattle-are-a-third-world-dumpster-fire-n3802530              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
