CHOP: Mayor Durkan considered giving the police precinct building to BLM
|
[HotAir] Remember the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone that was set up by activists and "protesters" in June of 2020? The real start of the CHAZ happened on June 8 when police rather suddenly pulled out of the East Precinct cop shoppe and boarded up the windows and doors. That gave the mob the sense that they were now in charge of the area and they quickly tagged buildings up and down the street with "ACAB" the abbreviation for "all cops are bastards." And a little more than a day later a dispute broke out over tagging which led to the first police action by CHAZ’s self-appointed leader/warlord Raz Simone.
Mr. Simone is the one being sued by several of his girlfriends for pimping them out. What we didn’t know at the time was that on the same day police effective handed control of CHAZ to the mob, Mayor Jenny Summer of Love Durkan
...Democrat Maress of Seattle, who allowed a chunk of the downtown of her city to be turned into an autonomous combat zone. She just can't figure what went wrong, if anything...
’s administration was seriously considering the idea of permanently giving the precinct which police had just vacated over to Black Lives Matter:
That June, as cops lobbed tear gas from behind barricades, and protesters on the streets surrounding the precinct called for the Police Department to be defunded, Durkan’s office behind the scenes briefly contemplated handing over the multimillion dollar property that had become the focus of the demonstrations.
Calvin Goings, the director of the city’s Department of Finance and Administrative Services (FAS), emailed three memos and a draft resolution to Durkan on the afternoon of June 8, 2020 — at about the same time police were abandoning the East Precinct on Capitol Hill.
The draft resolution for transferring the property to Black Lives Matter Seattle
 ...a formerly lovely city in Washington state, governed by communists, anarchists, dipshits, and other sorts of incompetents. Home to Starbuck's, Boeing (at least for now), and Amazon, Microsoft, and Costco, the city became rich beyond its wildest dreams. All that money attracted the usual sort of grifting politician, and it's well on its way to chewing off the hand that feeds it...
-King County (BLMSKC) included a July 1 effective date, and Durkan’s office subsequently discussed the possibility with the nonprofit, which at one point pushed to remake the building as a hub for public health and community care.
There’s no doubt this happened. The Seattle Times has posted all three of the memos. The plan was under consideration for about a week even as the CHAZ/CHOP degenerated into chaos. But despite having proof, a spokesperson for Durkan’s administration (she recently left office) has denied it.
Chelsea Kellogg, Durkan’s spokesperson, said, "There was no plan to transfer the East Precinct." She also claimed that the memos suggesting otherwise hadn’t been requested by the mayor but were sent to Durkan by the Department of Finance and Administrative Services (FAS), i.e. on their own initiative.
However,
women are made to be loved, not understood...
Melissa Mixon, a spokeswoman for FAS said that was not true. "The Durkan administration directed FAS — in its capacity as the city’s real estate and facility management agency — to outline the process to transfer the East Precinct to BLMSKC," Mixon said.
To sum all of this up, when the protests that led to the CHAZ/CHOP were at their height, Mayor Durkan’s office considered handing the police precinct over to BLM permanently. They even had discussions with BLM about it, but ultimately BLM didn’t want the building and the idea was dropped. Since then, the mayor and her office have sat on this information and when asked directly, denied it was something they either considered or proposed.
One reason Durkan might be denying this is that the city is being sued by business owners who are arguing the creation of CHAZ/CHOP was an abdication of law and order by the city, i.e. they defacto handed CHAZ/CHOP over to a mob. It’s not hard to see how these memos about handing over the cop shoppe play into that argument.
