In the last 6 months there have been three riots or violent acts committed under the shield of “non violence” or “empowerment”.

I’m sick of it.

I’m tired of hearing people call for “sanctuary” for illegal aliens or military deserters.

In all fairness the “mainstream” Olympia activist community has done a pretty decent job of being non violent.  But there are enough wing nuts in Olympia (and now they are coming here from other places!) to cause problems.  Add this to an unwillingness of the City to really crack down on violent protesters, it is a recipe for disaster.

Me, I’m just buying more ammo, and hoping Olympia doesn’t have a major disaster before I get the centerboard replaced in my sailboat.  When Oly goes, I want to be en route to Whidbey Island, not trying to get the heck out of here.  Olympia is a powderkeg, and someone lit the fuse on May Day.
