Seattle Police ‘cede’ Capitol Hill district to ‘autonomous 24/7 Antifa occupation’

Fox News reporter Dan Springer has told Sky News the departure of the Seattle Police from the Capitol Hill precinct effectively allowed a large rally to transform into an occupation of the area by armed protesters. The newly created 'Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone' consists of a seven-blocks containing apartment buildings, businesses and one vacated Seattle Police precinct. Mr Springer said protesters have “taken over the streets and they have blockaded the six different entrances to get into that area”. He said the situation has moved beyond a protest and is “looking like an occupation” with tents, food distribution and armed guards asking people for money and ID before allowing them entrance. “Protesters have maintained a 24 hour presence in the area,” he told Sky News host Paul Murray. Nationals Senator Matt Canavan said identity politics movements undermine the “central tenets” of our society that we are all individuals and should be judged as such. “Identity politics is tribal in nature, it’s divisive and it actually generates the kind of bigotry and prejudice that these people are ostensibly trying to campaign against”.
