I haven't kept track of the Seatle PD's protest response. Here in portland they see to be solidly in the "pro Nazi" column. Your governor seems to be taking a strong anti-Nazi stance. Is there a chance that police will actually police these guys or is it gonna be them looking the other way while a bunch of antifa kids get beat to death?

Two pro-Milo people showed up with a gun planning to shoot people, and when they did, only got charged with assault. So... yeah, pretty much pro-Nazi.

governors in every state are anti-nazi right up until it would require them to make any change to a police department

I think he's talking about that protest on the UW campus earlier this year where someone was shot, campus police hosed up and the DA didn't care to make it right.

The way it was phrased made it sound as though two separate individuals were arrested for bringing guns to the thing this last weekend. because of Milo for some reason.

Seattle City Council passed a bill 8-0 (Sawant was absent) that bans landlords from discriminating against people with a criminal record (except sex offenders, but they have to prove a legitimate reason why they discriminate against them). Nice.

Historically this has meant people start discriminating way more based on the whiteness of your name, so I hope there's more to it.

It's on Saturday too, so they'll probably be protesting a couple security guards and a few people who were too busy posting on forums to get their work done during the week.

Came to the Kirkland office this last Sunday, can confirm it's almost entirely deserted, as you'd expect (there were a few other people with me in the gym).

On the one hand, a citywide dress code for baristas is bullshit.

On the other hand, those loving bikini barista stands are pretty universally criminal enterprises.
