"Seattle Councilmember Kshama Sawant released a statement Saturday afternoon about the shooting. Read her full statement below.
Our deepest condolences go out to the loved ones of the black protester who was tragically killed this morning by gunfire at the Capitol Hill Organized Protest (CHOP)."

This was my particular favorite. I'm sure that it will turn out to be a right-wing attack even if it wasn't. I think the "peaceful" is such a clever note here.
" If this killing turns out to be a right-wing attack, President Trump bears direct responsibility, since he has fomented reactionary hatred specifically against the peaceful Capitol Hill occupation, and even threatened to intervene with federal troops."

"It is crucial that the CHOP occupation has developed a self-defense committee, ..."

It's probably a peaceful self-defense committee and the best part is, it doesn't seem to work.


"Our movement should also demand and insist that the Seattle Police fully investigate this attack and be held accountable ..."

Wait. What? The po-po? But I thought they had a self-defense committee and they wanted to get rid of the police... Oh, there it is.

"We must show our solidarity with the victims of this violence by continuing to build our movement and fight for our demands: to defund Seattle police by at least 50 percent;..."

Welp, too bad. I wonder if the 50% of funding will allow the police to have funds to investigate the murder.


My fervent hope is that the Kshama Sawant move into the CHOP so she can experience the peaceful police free socialist occupation for herself. I wonder if she can be charged for supporting an insurrection.
