Clarification: If I read the story you posted correctly, the mayor wasn’t actually at her house. The city councilwoman who was active in the march may not have known that. The mayor and her family had been moved to a secret site for their own safety.

A group of protesters marched to the home of Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan on Sunday afternoon, upset that she pledged to dismantle the police-free "Capitol Hill Organized Protest" zone, known as CHOP.

Demonstrators have controlled the six-block area since June 8, saying they will not leave until the city meets a list of demands.

Defunding the local police department by at least 50% is at the top of their list. Over the last several days, multiple instances of shootings, rape, and robbery have been reported inside or near CHOP, local police said.

That's what happens when you support lawlessness and not your own communities that put you in office.

Maybe the good citizens of Seattle should protest at the Mayors house and demand she do her job.

Your right Karma is a bit... she deserves everything that is happening to her. Now the wonderful blues have to protect her. I would take my time getting to her mansion

Mmmm . . . Maybe we should rescind their immunity from prosecution. Let’s hold the mayors and governors of these states responsible for egregious conduct.

Complains when the hate mobs she supports

Politicians in charge.

Isn't this the woman who said that she would not used the police or violence to resolve the issue with CHOP? She was going to negotiate with them to get them to leave.

What happened to that?

Such a shame. You sometimes get what you deserve.

Has to be one of the dumbest public officials of the first half of the year 2020. What could she have possibly have been thinking or which drug could she possible have been taking to allow the city of Seattle to suffer through such criminal indignity. The only consolation here is that the coffee sippers who elected her got exactly what they deserved.

The police chief and the silent majority (coffee sippers?) took far too long to respond.

Maybe there is a lesson for others to be learned.
When the order was finally given to the police to remove the protestors and their fake established encampment, it was done nearly over night......including taking back the abandoned police station......

An example of what should have been done day one.
