I think it's important to talk about what happened this past Sunday at the protest against the Seattle Police union. SPD claims it was a riot. In fact, officers cornered protesters in alley, deployed chemical weapons, and broke multiple laws while committing widespread violence.
I know most of you following me already know this stuff... The lies coming from Seattle Police have become monotonous and completely predictable. But plenty of people still believe them, and SPD is pushing this fiction to local news, who regurgitate it without question.
Seattle Police just released this bodycam "compilation". This is the worst of the worst from that night, from their perspective. And what is it, exactly? Footage of a few fireworks. That's it. They are liars and grifters. And it's important we don't let people forget that.
And I know that the initial act of aggression by SPD, threatening to run over protesters with the police cruiser, might not seem super inflammatory, but it has become a vicious pattern in the past couple months, and is only becoming more frequent. https://twitter.com/spekulation/status/1294725350576939008?s=20
Here's more intimate angle of the police cruiser threatening to hit the crowd. Ridiculous. https://twitter.com/zmboop/status/1295558801538523137?s=20
