CSI: American Carnage (Friday, June 12, 2020)
SEATTLE – The Times guy looks around at the people walking up and down 11th Avenue and says, I don’t know. Look! There’s a long-haired guy with a guitar! The Post guy is studying a juggler tossing up four balls while pulling a banana out of his back pocket. A mime walks by leading an invisible horse. The Times guy says, Look at that guy with the cow. Hey, everybody, someone says over a loudspeaker, the Dead are just setting up at Galahad’s Free Concert Stage and Emergency Meds! They are about to rock! Remember, watch out for the purple acid! The Post guy says, I feel like I’m in a time warp. Hey, he points, it’s Pigpen! The two reporters quickly trot over as the band sets up behind the stage. Bob Weir has already busted a string. Damn E strings! he grouses. Someone hands him an E string. Groovy, Bob says. Meanwhile, Sean and Pete are discussing the situation on the phone in New York. Sean says, Once again, a big liberal city has completely now lost control of what is a critical situation. Pete says, No kidding. The question is, do you send in the troops? Do you say, Hey, this isn’t going to happen anymore, or do you let Seattle sort of implode on itself? It’s a scary glimpse into the minds of leftists right now. Sean says, It is so bad that a bizarre group of these loosely affiliated anarchists and other losers have literally now taken over six city blocks in one of Seattle’s most prominent neighborhoods. Dozens of homes, now under siege without any police protection. A police precinct is now under anarchist control. Pete says, Declaring autonomous zones that replace cops with restorative justice which is really just code for reparations. Do that and it all makes sense. Sean says,The real problem for anyone with eyes to see and a functioning brain, is that Seattle’s Democratic mayor and Washington’s Democratic governor, they are doing nothing to protect their people and restore order, protect life, protect property. Listen Pete, armed vigilantes are now setting up checkpoints into this so called autonomous zone. Buildings inside the zone are getting vandalized. Business owners, there are reports they’re being extorted, fights are breaking out, people are being assaulted, and an entire police precinct, totally abandoned and taken over by the anarchists. Six blocks of pure anarchy inside the great United States of America. Pete shakes his head. No, Sean, they are not in the United States of America, they are on some other planet, the Planet of the Aliens of Outer Space. No law. No order. Totally not in the United States of America. Look, wait, we know America is flawed. No country is perfect. Humans are not perfect, we’re all sinful, but, we learn from our past and improve and become the most free, most diverse, most tolerant, most prosperous country in human history, why can’t they appreciate that? Sean says, Well Pete, ABC news ia calling this living nightmare, get this, a festive zone. The citizens of Seattle are now literally in danger and are watching it in real-time as these Democratic so-called leaders are looking the other way as a group of idiot anarchists destroy their own city. The president wants to take care of it. He knows how to take care of it. But the pussies in the military, they think it’s okay that anarchists are taking over the cities. And we’re not even talking blacks here. Blacks are not anarchists. So this has nothing to do with them. Blacks are not even allowed in antifa. Pete says, The president told me it would be easy to fix it. Sean says, That’s right. He says, Seattle’s like a candy bar to these people. They took a chunk of it. A big chunk. You cant let that happen, what happened in New York City, he says. You have to dominate the streets with compassion. Make it too hot for them. Choke them, he says, It’s beautiful. It’s terrible. But beautiful. Terrible and beautiful. Pete says, Yeah. Then the chocolate melts. Sean says, And you know what the idiot mayor of this dump told the leader of the free world? Pete says, No. Sean says, She tells him she’s not gonna listen to the president’s threats to invade. Go back to your bunker, she tells him. We’re gonna have a summer of love. What the hell, Pete. You’d think they’re driving that train, high on cocaine. These hippies are like the undead. No matter how dead you make them, they keep on coming back. – Friday, June 12, 2020
