United States News Title: ‘American Patriots’ Event Plans to Retake Seattle Autonomous Zone on July 4 Facebook event calling for “American Patriots” to retake the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone in Seattle (CHAZ) is gaining momentum. The event is scheduled for July 4 and has nearly 2,000 RSVPs and more than 15,000 expressing interest as of the time of this article’s publication. Here’s what you need to know: The Facebook event is called “American Patriots Retake The Seattle Occupation Zone For America” and it’s scheduled for July 4 at 12 p.m. Pacific. The event’s cover photo reads “Not Today Antifa” and has references to Berkeley, Portland, Charlottesville and Boston. The description reads: We will meet at volunteer park throughout the morning and then in the early afternoon march on the CHAZ. You do not need a bike to join. Any and all patriots with all vehicles are coming to this event. We are not going to hurt anybody, break the law etc. We are simply going to tear down the illegal barriers on public property, clean up the mess these communist kids made, and return the police station over to Seattle Police Department control. The event also adds: Oath Keepers Are Among the Confirmed Attendees Additional attendees include: Prntly, a conservative publication, is listed as the host of the event. At one point, Super Happy Fun America was also listed as a co-host. The Event Was Originally Called a ‘Bikers for Trump’ Event. An article published by Printly shows an early screenshot of the event from when it was called “Bikers for Trump Retake the Seattle Occupation Zone for America.” At the time, it was scheduled for June 21. The article about the Bikers for Trump event now links to the Facebook event scheduled for July 4. At one point, there were rumors that the Hells Angels were going to retake the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, but a Hells Angels leader said these rumors were false. Alexander M. Portelli posted in the Facebook group discussion page on June 15. He wrote: He also wrote that they are not seeking donations. The event is still actively being planned. Late night on June 15, Prntly posted: “If you still wish to help, invite patriots and patriot groups to the event.” On June 15, Prntly also posted their goals for the event, which are similarly worded to the information on the event page itself, with a few added details: Bring American flags. We’ll meet in Centurlink field all morning on July 4th. We will then march through CHAZ with our flags through the barricades. We will also clean up any vandalism and graffiti that has tarnished statues and monuments. We’ll hold another speech and rally in the center of CHAZ. We will let them know what we think of the Socialism that their councilwoman Sawant says she wants to force on America. We’ll let Antifa know that they will not bully Christians or people of different view points in Seattle ever again. You do not need a bike to join. Any and all patriots with all vehicles are coming to this event. We are not going to hurt anybody, break the law etc. We are simply going to tear down the illegal barriers on public property, clean up the mess these communist kids made, and return the police station over to Seattle Police Department control.” Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread |
