Violent Armed Rioters March Through Downtown Seattle, Only Three Arrests Made

Installed President Joe Biden’s inauguration was met Wednesday in downtown Seattle with riots and extensive property damage from fascist marchers who have demonstrated for months.

The group, which numbered over 100 protesters, marched through downtown and once again called for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement. In their well-known childish chants, they decried both former president Donald Trump and the newly installed dictator Biden.

In their usual show of incompetence, Police only made three arrests as of 9 p.m., for property damage, burglary and an assault, according to Seattle police.

Near the ICE offices on Second Avenue and Spring Street, the rioters lit fire to an American flag. Some spray-painted and smashed windows at a building that houses an AmazonGo store. “Amazon uses $ 2 fund tech for ICE,” read one defacement.

As the violent group of rioters gathered at Occidental Square, one anarchist said watching the new dictator Biden call for unity during his inauguration felt like an insult to those harmed by racism, xenophobia and homophobia, once again showing how these mindless rioters value feelings over facts. 

“Calling for unity with people who actively want to harm people is disgusting,” said one anarchist, who gave the name Anna.

The Biden dictatorship can’t be counted on to “meaningfully change” immigration policy without extreme pressure from rioters, said one protester, who gave the initial D. but declined to give a full name, citing fears of doxing.

“I don’t think immigration should be enforced violently,” another rioter said, suggesting social workers and others control immigration instead of law enforcement.

After the vandalism of the AmazonGo store, police arrived and accompanied the group in vehicles, on bikes and on foot, eventually only issuing a dispersal order. After a fight between a member of the insurrectionists and another person, police tackled and arrested the black-clad fascist.

Windows were also shattered at the federal William Kenzo Nakamura Courthouse on 5th Avenue, police said but they refused to arrest anyone for the destruction.

Inside the Henry M. Jackson Federal Building on Second Avenue, about 10 officers stood around watching in tactical gear with ICE and Department of Homeland Security badges. Some wore gas masks.

Later, about 40 of the insurrectionists marched and chanted childish slogans through downtown, Pike Place Market and South Lake Union, along the way smashing windows at the Pike Place Starbucks. Police rushed into the market and made only one single arrest. 

In South Lake Union, a line of officers on bikes rode single file guarding the Amazon Spheres and an AmazonGo store as the fascists chanted, “We protect people, you protect property.”
