Don't want to irradiate E. Washington. Aren't they mostly on our side?

It's getting harder and harder to tell what "our side" is.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

One MOAB's right in the center of the RHAZ should do it.

What they're yelling is mind numbingly stupid. I fear this will be the entire US in 4 years.

I watched a few minutes of it. I couldn't be a cop there. I might accidentally make someone die.

I've seen YT do that before. May or may not been PT News that did it.

Free hotel rooms
Wonder if this is made up of many from the park?

Quote
Homeless Antifa activists took over sixteen motel rooms near Tacoma, Washington on Christmas Eve and are refusing to pay for the lodging, demanding that local government pick up the tab and turn the motel into a shelter.

    More than 40 homeless folks are occupying this Travelodge in the Tacoma/Fife area. Advocates say its up to Pierce County to pay for their housing in dangerously cold temps. The motel owner says if something isn’t done he may be forced out of business. pic.twitter.com/4oQIMuTkRR

This is, and here I'm not being an armchair warrior, one step closer to rifle time. They're pulling this bullshit because to them, Travelodge is a corporation. Nevermind that a guy owns it as one motel in the franchise.

The next step towards rifle time is what I've been reading about people in many areas now getting year-long "rental relief" for the virus. Another step to the "great reset". I read that in Santa Barbara landlords now have to pay three months expenses when they evict someone "without cause". Cause being destroying property, threatening neighbors, etc. But not failure to pay rent. I'm sure a bunch of other liberal hellholes are doing the same thing, because to them, every landlord is a corporation.

^^^I think this is very clever optics by the homeless advocacy group.  The City doesn't want to send the cops to force them out into the street in front of the media. The owner just wants to get paid but neither the advocacy group or City is leaping forward with the checkbook out.  So while the talking heads sit around a conference table, the owner is losing, and no one cares about him.

At the end of the day, the business owner is left holding the crappy end of the stick.  If he gets paid, when will that happen, and will it happen in time enough to save his livelihood.

Lets also not forget that this is antifa, so besides the rent, there will be significant damage to the rooms. I can't recall for sure, but I thought the hotels in San Francisco or Berkeley or wherever that were forced to take in the homeless, had their rooms pretty much trashed.

And that just frosts my shorts.  We have friends who rent out a house or condo, or in some cases, they have a 4-5 apartment building that they are using as cash flow for their retirement.  They are as mom and pop as you can be.  We rented out my wife's condo for a while, until the market improved and we could sell it without being underwater.  Here in Washington, the eviction moratorium has been extended through March, and I worry what is going to happen to those small residential and commercial landlords.

It's one of the reasons I got out of landlording in California. I know my tinfoil hat is on, but what's going on now "cuz covid" is just the perfect stepping stone to permanent "rent reforms" that will be the end of the individual landlord.

Burn the TravelLodge to the ground, blame antifa for starting the fire, collect the insurance,  and move the *expletive deleted*ck out of Seattle.

Owners problems are solved.

That doesn't sound too bad, but getting it done with no witnesses and no evidence of arson will need some thought.
