Seattle Police Chief's Memo to Businesses: We Can't Really Protect You From 'Violent' Crowds

Seattle and Portland have been hit especially hard by far-left Antifa radicals. Through violence, the clearly fascist group believes they can change the world.

Because the riots have became so out of control, the chief of police of Seattle is basically telling business owners: sorry, but you’re on your own.

See for yourself, via TDW:

Seattle’s police chief issued a memo over the weekend, warning the city’s residents and business owners that police officers would not be able to “safely intercede” in the event that homes and businesses were targeted during expected protests after the city’s council passed a measure barring cops from using non-lethal crowd control methods.

The new measure, passed as a way of preventing members of the police force from using excessive force, “bans Seattle Police officers the use of less-lethal tools, including pepper spray that is commonly used to disperse crowds that have turned violent,” according to Chief Carmen Best’s letter.

Seattle has been one of the scenes of weeks of civil unrest following the death of George Floyd. The mayor, Jenny Durkan, has taken criticism from police and President Trump for her handling of a recent takeover of a city police precinct by demonstrators who wished to set up a “police free” state.

Activists in Seattle have demanded the city defund the local police department by at least 50%, and some members of the city council have embraced the idea.
