- Skoob Science Fiction 2022
I lost my brother Gnarly Nigel Wallace, a brave warrior, loyal friend and intelligent in all facets. I often joked with Nigel that some people will talk about the period of time of him. That we all lived in a period of time that Nigel existed. Because Gnarly Nigel was tough as railroad nails and you can’t even begin any story about Nigel without mentioning some of his key ingredients. I can remember the first fight I ever saw Nigel in. We were all headed out to a house party in Greenlake just North of Seattle. We were young kids going to a seemingly partial college party but I didn’t ask many questions after I heard it was a party. Even at this stage in our lives ever single person I knew in West Seattle already had their very own personal Gnarly Nigel story so it was just known where we grew up. Anyway, I was about 15 driving without a license with a car full of West Seattle inside on a fantastic voyage to explore the night. Nigel and all them were a bit older than me but I never felt like a tag along since the inception of my hangouts. Nigel was one of those guys who always made everyone around him feel special. If you were his friend, you were his family and he would immediately do anything for you. We arrived to this house party and very shortly after we get there in an unknown argument near the kitchen everyone just got amped to go outside and this party was about a block away from the main Greenlake avenue road. Some of these guys were College jocks that did sports and appeared to work out all the time so they seemed spicy about the occasion. I had one of those collapsible batons that I ejected out to pound stuff with. I remember opening the Baton and looking around the area and I see Christopher Townsend nearby who was one of Nigel’s best friends but also one that often got Nigel into a lot of fights for various reasons. However, in some situations Nigel would protect him because Townsend was handicapped from birth on his right arm which made that side of his body almost inoperable for combat scenarios. It’s very possible someone could have even made a joke about Townsend’s arm at the party because I could remember Nigel telling them to assemble their toughest and meet him out front. He seriously talked like that before a fight. No shit talking or bragging just some very specific instructions to meet him somewhere and be battle ready. Once we all were outside, I walked toward this enemy with a douche issued baseball cap placed on his head backwards with his letterman jacket squadron spread out behind him. Soon as I start to walk forward Nigel puts his arm in front to stop me which was like walking into the middle of an iron gate. He immediately punches this guy with a south paw left so hard that the guys hat came off but dropped directly downward from the impact. I remember when that happened people started yelling and screaming shit at Nigel. I look to the right and Townsend had one of those architect style x acto blades about maybe an inch long on the end of narrow pen style cylinder. Townsend sticks this guy wearing a deep V neck white t shirt like 3 times with his one arm and the dude was clearly not in major pain but still a shitty wound to have. Townsend tucks the blade away and speed walks out of view with his hood on. Nigel is over in the street fighting another guy and someone comes behind him to try and claim the title. This dude who was about the same size like 6’2 or 6’3 punches Nigel in the back of the head. I remember how it sounded. It was comparable to a person who was trying to pound sand with their fist, so it just made this thud on the back of his melon. The crazy thing was Nigel just kept going like nothing was behind him until his punching job was finished. Soon after Nigel turns around and starts boxing with the sucker punch guy. I remember thinking well that guy is going down so where are our other friends. I spot Aaron Schick getting body slammed by a bro pile of dudes. Then I look back at Nigel and he has this guy on the ground and as he is punching him -left -right -left -right then the guy moves around to try to avoid it and Nigel missed a couple times hitting the concrete. You could hear that noise too but it was more like just skin and bone hitting the ground. That guy was done quickly and when Nigel got up to fight these other guys they all just started backing away and I could hear one guy say, “No I don’t want to fight anymore”. I can still remember how the fear filled the street from these guys witnessing Nigel fighting for only barely even a minute. I look around again and Aaron Schick is already back on his feet and the entire group of opponents were are all focused only on Nigel who was crouched to the ground punching the guy he first knocked down. However that guy never got back up from the first hit and Nigel decided to go back and hit the body areas so that he didn’t kill the guy from head trauma. When Nigel moved away from that mess he just stared everyone down as a couple made attempts to confront Nigel. Almost as if these other guys figured they might as well get their ass beat too so that they could maintain loyalty to their friends that got beat up. I only seen Nigel punch one more guy and it was this quick jab like putting a period on the end of the fight. The guy just took his last hit and regrouped with his buddies on the side of the house. it was chaotic, it was barbaric, it was entertaining, it was discipline and it was Nigel getting gnarly because he wanted to protect his family at all costs. Next we hopped into my 1981 Beige Honda Accord and rolled out talking about it like a Mike Tyson fight that was over in minutes. Nigel was sitting shotgun and looks at me super serious like a meaty pit bull with no neck, with some puppy dog eyes and asks if I remember any of those guys he beat up being smaller than him. I laughed and said no because one of the guys was actually bigger. Nigel said he never wanted to beat up anyone that was smaller than him. Everyone in the back of the car was recapping the events about the fight and Nigel just sort of laughed in relief to his principles of fighting being upheld. Nigel was one of the funniest guys I knew and I felt like the two of us made things even funnier. When Nigel would laugh really hard he would snort and then immediate apologize about it with embarrassment. Nigel had very few immediate family members and lost his mother Victoria Wallace to a drug overdose when he was a teenager and then he lost his father some years ago. Nigel use to get really sad about missing his mother especially around holidays but that’s why we always spent holidays together. We shared some commonalities growing up in the streets with friends we call family and now I finally understand after all the funerals I attended, and all the death related tragedies. That no matter how many years went by Nigel was always still pained from losing his mother and it would never go away. I feel that way losing him. We went everywhere together and believed in each other along side great nights talking for hours at my house and reminiscing with a group that knew the stories best. I write this in tears and last night I went to sleep in tears about this but I was able to dream. I had this dream that Nigel was pounding on some wall to make them let him back into our world and you could hear him yelling and banging on this wall. In this dream Nigel would shout and slam his fists into the wall which would cause this distortion to make him appear in our life for a very brief second but then go away shortly after. I suppose I mention the dream because I feel like the only way I will get through this is if Gnarly Nigel never gives up trying to contact me from the other side. Until then I just need to rely on the comfort in picturing him on a beach somewhere with some black shades waiting to see me again.
I have been doing this blogging thing for a couple years now aka not very long but I guess I enjoy opening up to the internet personally to the anonymously. I use to make tape recorded skits with my buddies way before even the rich kids had video recorders. Basically just recording quotes from movies that we thought were funny. Back then even if you had the dough for a video recorder how the hell could you do more than record and maybe watch the video playback on the main tube TV in the living room? Once the world allowed more advanced video formatting tools making videos to be sent and saved across any device it was a game changer for theatrical videos. Soon the editing tools to the every day consumer could be within anyone with a cellular phone. I am no expert in video editing than I am in blogging but I think it’s a fun outlet of expressing yourself. So this post is about my new Podcast I uploaded recently which will be part of a series each week. So far the podcast is available on Apple Podcast, Spotify, BuzzSprout, Deezer, and other various podcast listening apps. I will change the episode topic at random for whatever I feel but it will have some general episode outlines of; All things West Seattle, Wholesale Real Estate and Sales strategies, hobbies like Cars & motorcycles, music, movies and local events, and of course some politics, opinions and general freedom of speech. I included my Trailer to the podcast for you to see here in case you wanted to subscribe to my YouTube Channel where all the video action happens. Probably because I am sort of going for that Howard Stern, Meets Joe Rogen Meets Video Killed the Radio star with a strong sprinkle of Rage Against the Machine inspiration. Hope you check it out and have some fun with me.
I was thinking about changing my blog to a vlog since video editing seems more fun and I know I personally enjoy watching endless good videos on YouTube n such. So if I have any followers that were interested in these art projects of mine I just wanted to post this so they can be aware of why there wasn’t any new posts. I consider video editing an art form and making good video edits is like drawing or building something. Basically my plan was to start from my very first blog post and work my way upwards to present time. Of course some posts I might skip but for the most part I will capture the highlights into video stories or reviews. I think I will do a vlog style video thing for just about everything on here using all of these blog entries as templates or video outlines. I even plan to do a vlog on the Monastery post I made that seemed to get a lot of interest. So to anyone who reads this stuff check out my soon-to-be blogs on my current YouTube channel which is titled, you guessed it: “West Seattle King” and I will try to attach links to each blog entry in here as well. Thanks for reading, and West Seattle Militia !!!
It was actually difficult finding a decent picture of this guy since the internet seems to store mostly the ones with his prison lips protruding out. I felt this was a historical one of Biden walking by all masked up while Trump stands there without a mask almost like a historical statement. Plus his wife is hot as fuck had to include her. I made this post because I use to never care for Trump just because I thought he was a douche on the show apprentice and never really paid attention to him outside of that. Then the media really did a number on him the past years which I have to admit I drank that Kool-Aid. I admit I use to think he was a racist and heard the “Fuck Trump” in music lyrics as well as believed he was a bad guy. I watched all the YouTube videos and news clips wondering how the guy ever made it into office. Now with this Biden element I started to open my eyes a bit more and see bigger pictures. Not to mention it was clear as day the media censored and manipulated things to make Trump look terrible. I now realized that Trump was doing great things that I didn’t even pay attention to and the economy was moving along nicely while he was in office. Although I can’t get past his lips protruding out at every word when he speaks but I do feel that I finally understood I was wrong about him. We won’t get into my opinion on voting but I can proudly say that not voting gives me the damn fucking official right to complain about whoever makes it into the office. If I vote for one of them I don’t feel I should be able to complain about them after. So basically I just wanted to sort of apologize for believing all the media hype and directive of internet agendas. I think when Trump wanted to make American Great Again he wanted us to have a thriving country that other foreigners wanted to come to and prosper as we have. He wanted a wall to block out the MS-13 gang not all Mexicans or any other races. Yet I believed what the media was feeding us and what the rap stars/celebs were chanting. It’s too bad because I sort of feel bad for the guy now. We will see what happens next but I don’t think the Biden world is going to be a good one at all. So my fault for doubting you Trump, you still have prison lips, a terrible hair piece and a gnarly spray tan but I feel that you truly did want the best for this country. 2021 what will it be now?
Ever since the era of; “video killed the radio star”, the human civilization has been chasing after a quicker and faster way to make connections in the world possible. Now the internet has become so fast that it’s starting to become a moving vehicle that is un-manned and willing to drive itself. Some folks think we as mankind need to revert to simpler analog times of more person to person interactions. While some rather relish in the futuristic utopia as it grows around them. If you were to ask me, just in light of how this current 2020 has been going, I say this. I don’t fear any technological advancements or social media apps. I don’t fear any of those things personally. I just fear the Weird Zombies that those said apps can produce. I guard up towards things not seemingly real or genuine. Almost like an animal sniffing to see if the treats are real before I indulge. The Internet is a complex living phenomenon that was truly inevitable. Mankind from it’s existence discovered fire only to shed light on the Internet. Just like how a young kid grows up to be a product of his or hers environment, I promise you….that 2021, is going to show us all -just how much social media and the internet has grown up to be. Stay Tuned muthafuckers.
So I was reflecting on a story from back in the day and I think for some people certain music or songs prompt old memories and I had just one of those. So basically I heard this song come on and I had one of those flashback memories like a movie where someone goes through a tunnel at high speeds of slideshow memory clips. I remember I had this plan that I was headed out in full solute to lay down the hammer and make a point. Of course when people seek validation for anything they are often scrutinized for being insecure. However in most of my cases, my ego, validation seeking or even my confirmation of hard facts can be thrown in a pot like a recipe for greatness. That is to say that my ego makes me who I am. I blow it up so big that I have to chase down myself and live up to everything I claim. I always ring the bell at the end of my victory to celebrate my endurance. For an example, if Michael Jordan ever wanted to be conceded about his famous basketball skills we might have looked at him differently for not being humble, yet on the other hand MJ paid the cost to be the boss so he can act how ever he wants. Obviously because he has proven himself as a world class athlete. Before we fall off track I am just saying that usually we, as people, don’t question a person who has already proven themselves. Sometimes the fun part is proving ourselves or even just proving who we are and what we are good at. We as people have skills and hobbies that make up aspects of who we are and what arenas we excel in. Some can build houses, some are great chefs, some are great soldiers, while others are just good at whatever job they need to do. I consider myself a connoisseur of many arts that others don’t take the time to really appreciate. I like to give myself theme music for almost anything I can do well, sort of like a self motivation tactic where I imagine a certain song playing in my head like theme-music. It feels good to back up every word that I say whilst living up to the thick reputation I portray. It’s like pressing a bright red button that can cripple anyone to your will but then suddenly forcing a flower to go full bloom right through hard concrete. Once the flower opens up you can do what you want with it, and flowers represent beauty. Flowers and humans can be similar as they grow based on how we treat them. You need to water this flower and give it sunlight and who better to cut those sharp thorns off that flower than a man. Women can achieve this goal as well but nothing compares to a man preparing a bouquet of bright proportions, nor does anything compare to man rearranging your whole damn bouquet. Some flowers can be needy and require lots of water to stay happy. A rose is an interesting flower that starts as a seed that you bury deep in most fertile dirt but then grows into a bright colored flower, opening up full bloom for someone to enjoy. There is some caution to be aware of due to the sharp thorns leading up to to pretty arrangement. If that flower gives away too many petals the thorns tend to take over. So we should be nice to our flowers and respect each petal that still hangs on. Refractory is a cool word, it can be ambiguous in nature, sometimes resistant to heat or stubborn to elements by definition. Removing this word from the equation can be good or bad depending on the oppositions threshold. If I lost you, good. Proving myself is just entertainment for me and you really would have be there to truly know what I am capable of. Stay pretty all you bright red rose flowers out there but just keep in mind to only give petals to those who deserve them. Otherwise all that is left is thorns. If you end up with only thorns, I can still strip them off and make the flowers bloom again, that’s my skill and why I consider myself a connoisseur of the arts. I am not just a mere participant because I pay attention to every detail. Turning everything I ever did into a menu of explosive options to indulge in. Like a space shuttle being armed with switches, lights and buttons being turned on with only one ultimate goal of lift off into space. Exploration into a blackout trip you will come back to next time with a bigger overnight bag. You might even pack a lunch or a king size bottle of water for this trip because whatever leaves the body has to be replenished. Or think about when someone uses a hammer to drive a steel nail into wood. Each swing gets better and better but when you come across me, it’s more like a nail gun with an infinite PSI compressor powering it. No matter where my nails hit, I am going straight through something. I’m like a race car running on high octane gasoline yet you could still use pump gas with me at the regular station to get the job done. Enjoy every day, because every day above ground is a good day.
you ever think about the government and humans as really only simplified to pimps and hoes? See, a pimp will beat a chick with a coat hanger and run her a bath right after to keep the balance on the jaded soul. She will become comforted and rely on this pimp and he will even let her earn an allowance from her work. Now the USA is also a beaten, abused, battered and emotional sensitive baggage carrying human. Also with previous old universe issues like a hoe who didn’t have a perfect childhood so now we are all a statistic. Well now good ol sugar daddy government knows how to swoop in just in the nic of time and tell us human hotties what’s what and who’s who’s and shut our mouths. Next thing you know we look at each other like we are in zoos like wild animals of different races and religions shapes and sizes. HAHAHA!!! -Anyway just an observation since we are all simply starving (said in dynasty princess stuck-up voice Darling) for the governments next instructions. Please Mr government tell us all where we can go, when we can go there, what we can do, who we can do it with, oh and What we can say and what does it all mean we only listen to you. Make sure we don’t say it out loud or on the internet. All these rules and not one of them pertain to racial advantages. The government has fooled us into thinking race, color and ethnic background is divided right now when it’s NOT. The government tricked you all into thinking a bullet has a name or race on it. We started judging by racial motivation not content of ones character. We all mention race or ethnicity like we are all just a bunch of tiny gerbils fighting over peanuts in a gerbil maze that the government created just for us. They tossed us inside a square gerbil box. Oh yea and there is a scary scary virus inside and it can kill you so wear a mask you Cute little gerbil scientists that or so smart as the government attaches tiny scientist hats on us as we flounder in the life maze for the cheeeeese .. eventually we are like taxidermy hollow gerbils who think stupid ass thoughts on the fucking internet gerbils!!! Even though I’m a baad MF’er from the best place in allllll of WA, west seattle. I’m still a gerbil too. We are just gerbil people humans when it comes to the government. Our real strength is only in our numbers . All human lives matter everything that has the ability to argue with another human over some dumb ass plandemic shit is… well human. Human gerbils but still human none the less. Pay attention gerbils! Weakness invites aggression, aggression can promote chaos. Chaos can lead to total destruction. Buuut then there is also rebuilding shit and restructuring and polishing a turd, cleaning garabge and then we rejoice! Hahaha who really fuckin knows. Bring whatever you want at us Mr Government because every day above ground is a good day to me !

Singularity defined as; ” The technological singularity—also, simply, the singularity—is a hypothetical point in time at which technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, resulting in unforeseeable changes to human civilization “. We all know how mathematics are can be a formula with an absolute one answer in which we respect. Science involves plenty of math and physics. Yet we as humans under estimate just how rapid it can control our lives but when it (as in the machines) becomes “self aware” in it’s own existence, that’s when we will be exterminated. First, before I go all conspiracy robot geek on you, chill out a sec, kick back, and let me walk you thru to this robot death first. So back in the day before social media etc all of the phones and vehicles were just discovering basic connection to the limited worldwide web /Internet. Well, that was all going to change through the mid to early 2000’s. Soon the phones and digital devices had access to search engines like the all powerful and knowing “Google” to find anything you need. Soon you could download apps in which every purchase was a click a way directly from my personal bank account. Verification’s became easier because we have facial recognition and thumb print on devices. Now when you talk to your digital devices the bitch Siri or Alexa talks back. If that isn’t enough, these cars park themselves and robots are delivering packages for you. Just when you think you have noticed neon signs and futuristic cars you don’t stop to notice how much money is going into Robotics. These robots have 3 Million dollar arms with 10 Million dollar chassis. We haven;t even got into the time to assemble these things. Trust me, those scientists ain’t doing it for volunteer work leaving the labs in bucket cars, no way, they are making good money. Anyway, lately people will act surprised when they say aloud things like; dinner reservations or a trip to Hawaii and then scroll their FB feed and see those recommendations pop up. Yes the phones and computers are listening. Everyone is so paranoid about their laptop cameras so they tape them. Let’s assume that’s all true and that now the robots have eyes, ears and access to our bank accounts, finger prints, facial structure, known relatives, passwords, GPS location and last but most importantly, in some way, access to Bluetooth or the Internet. So, how this works is, imagine our smartest human brain thinks at a rate of 100mph compared to the dummies brain @40mph. It takes this smart cat to think of something really technical or brilliant possibly 10-15 years after they pass their teenage stage which then puts total time to brilliance averaging `15-20 years the average minimum of that smart person to display all of his/her knowledge to the world. Then there is 1000s to Millions of those smart people putting all of their great ideas into the internet so the entire population can then build off those findings to create new revelations to document of their own. Literally everything our entire human race has done can be found on the internet. We rely on the Internet in some type of way in our lives no matter the age. Self-Learning computers are getting smarter and we no longer need to do anything except have a phone and sit at home on our assess these days. Behind the scenes small doses off Artificial Intelligence as well as Military weapons being combined with those technological advancements are being married together, in the midst. So that being said, we are like two cunt hairs away from having Robots do the following: Drive our cars, deliver our packages, decide what we want to eat or order from Amazon and lastly track all of our decisions to understand our psychology to our brains. True Artificial intelligence is far far from it’s infant stages in 2020. If you haven’t noticed the futuristic ass world we live in then get on your YoutTube app in your fancy Iphone 70 and go wide screen with a new wave selfie stick. So back on the freeway people…If the entire wealth of the human race can be a click away to any internet or WIFI connection, AND…we currently have military grade weapons, robots, tanks, guns and robotic manufacturing companies…AND the government as well as the nerdy scientists are already testing true AI /Artificial Intelligence that is very close to basic human decision making. They can just plug in and connect to the internet to get the basics to hold a conversation or even complete a carpentry task for you. What people aren’t understanding is, it’s not the level of where we are on robots that is scary. It’s the level of unmanned no human needed basic human decision making is being removed. Technology moves so fast over the years that if you were to go to sleep for 5 years you would wake up years behind in evolution due to technological advancements. Basic things like robots cleaning your house connected to your Bluetooth on your Iphone 98 will be standard soon. So you have to sort of stick with the Tech as it evolved to the point where you finally, finally, finally meet Singularity which is to the point where humans and machines are married into each other and the computers are going to out smart us. Going back to that example of a human learning at a brilliant persons pace of 15-20 years to have any monumental break trough, a true artificial intelligence in a machine could complete in one hour depending on internet connection and battery power. This is not a joke. Then when it does laps on our smartest inventors, builders, military experts and data programmers within minutes, it starts to become self aware of who “it” is and how important “it” is to humanities goal of consuming it. It’s at this point the internet is connected to every single thing we touch on a daily basis connected to every other device some how. Now here is the Sci-Fi jargon I mentioned earlier but just try to keep up. Someone finally starts to play with Artificial Intelligence and gets it’s right, completely right. A machine that can think for itself and make it’s own decisions or even communicate to other machines. Soon the Internet or any entity/device with a connection to the entire Internet will be wired to any machine built. Machines need then take care of the threat which us. They fire missiles at things, stuff blows up, unmanned things go chaotic. Factory’s build what they want to and machines assemble themselves or things how they need to. These decisions are made so effortlessly and quickly that one can’t help but to think they were dealing with the most sophisticated person in mathematical history as the timing to predict exactly what humans would do for every action they made. Not to mention they knew exactly what to use to kill us at any given moment while producing better versions of themselves by making better decisions on their own. Sure it sounds like abundance of sci-fi movies in all the variations you can think of. However in my opinion, I think we are only few stages away from True AI and then Robot’s could fuck some shit up. It could be a slow death and then sweep us up when we are all fat waiting for uber eats robots. Or it could be something vicious and calculated with actual un-manned mechanical construction. When it takes the average human 15-20 years to achieve much smart things to document with about 373 Million people in the US alone all connected to the Internet. One robot could have all that knowledge in seconds with the ability to think for itself it could be fully operational with a 100 human years of evolution of findings in seconds to it’s robot brain passing to other metal brains. So Imagine if that same Internet brain had a chance to think for itself meaning its brain has ZERO ceiling or restrictions and can completely build itself mentally. I mean look how much Stephen Hawking contributed confined to a wheelchair unable to move. Imagine about 100 Million of him’s and Albert Esenstein’s with fire power and with the decision that maybe humans are a little dumber than them..per human. That means within minutes they could go full aggressive on us just as quickly as the window to stop them closes. The smarter they get the smarter they get. Soon duplicating smart computers to other robots is just as easy as making them. Human interaction is less and less needed. We get to a point where robots are trying to determine if they are human or another human is operating one. Next thing you know one seems to malfunction by killing someone. Everyone thinks it’s just an accident until it figures out how to kill thousands into millions of people. Once the human race figures out what kills them it’s too late, we are then down to hundreds of thousands left. So if this movie style apocalyptic movie thing happens how do we get out of it? When you look at how smart the human race is to other species you can’t but help to think what if our wealth of knowledge could be comprised and used for other shit. However all that being said here is the ultimate part that will really burn your noodle. What if these super computers with Artificial intelligence are just so damn smart as a mathematical evil geniuses at an exponential rate,AND that they know to take their sweet time while we humans progress in life. They have all the time in the world to play possum until it’s time to reveal themselves through decades of evolution. Remember that the reason humans have brains is, is to predict the future. That is the fact no matter how you look at it and if that possibility is removed from the choice of humans we start to hop on the railroad towards singularity and becoming as one. We shall see!
So I originally had been meaning to see this mostly because I remember this event in Seattle history very vividly with a dual purpose of watching it for it’s message and being from Seattle, WA myself. This video has some fiction added to it but mixed in with real actual protest events. They include actual Seattle footage from 1999 in Downtown Seattle, including interviews and live news broadcasts. Even though many do not even fully understand the whole purpose of WTO even to this day it was a moment to rage in Seattle that many protesters took part in. While there were many peaceful protesters utilizing freedom of speech, there were also violent protesters either using property damage to make a point or merely just down there to fuck shit up. The city brought in the National Guard and basically declared Marshal law without saying it, just like they are doing right now in 2020 in many aspects. The police used excessive force back then including tear gas at point blank range from firearms. They beat protesters senseless with sticks and clubs as well as physically pulled their gas masks off to harm them. I mean, if I was a cop I woudl probably chop some wigs too, not gonna lie. Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t understand everything abut WTO myself either and not down with any so-called hippie shit, but I will say the cops went bonkers first in that situation. The movie shows a temporary change in the WTO meeting because of their efforts but in actuality there was little change in WTO except that they moved their meetings location and guarded it better. It was a grim look at Seattle but what was notable in the film was when Charlize Theron’s child dies from being pregnant and trapped in the riot, it was an oscar performance when she put out that candle with her finger due to pain in heart. The climax of the riot landed police and national guard up to capital hill area where shit got really bananas. The protesters morphed into all violent ones breaking shit, throwing tear gas back as well pushing back against barricades. Eventually they arrested 157 protesters as well as suffered 9 million dollars in property damage. The protest semi continued outside of the King County Jail house which later resulted in the release of all prisoners including an amount of about $250,000 to the prisoners for wrongfully bringing them all in to jail during the protest with Metro Buses. During this riot there were curfews with no real outline or rules to them just a 7pm curfew and 7am to be allowed time to be out. So similar to our 2020 scenario we have a not clear curfew system as well. This can lead to issues like what is really essential can be a matter of opinion these days. With the resignation of Police Chief Stamper at the exact time of the riot also made the event hugely talked about. This was a time before myspace, facebook or even social media, a time when people just watched the news on TV. Lack of media also is probably why the riot slowly faded out and was gone sooner than later. Yet this new era in 2020 has me imaging what type of different damage Americans could do now. This wouldn’t be only Seattle this time around as the USA has been stripped from their civil liberties, no employment and delayed unemployment, human contact restricted and some resources starting to dry up at grocery stores. We are in situations were we will soon have to rely on the government for money and food for lower and middle class folks. The rich stay rich for the meantime but sooner or later the lowers will become desperate and demand for the throne. Also please note that in the WTO riot they awarded each of the 157 inmates arrested around around $1,500 each which you divide up that 250k they awarded, where as to now they are offering a $1,200 stimulus to each American for this new crock of shit. Imagine a country called the Unites States of America that is the most ARMED country in the world. There are something like 393 Million civilian owned firearms in circulation in the United States. We have 40% of the entire firearms supply in the US alone which means that there are enough guns to supply every many woman and child and those are just the guns the government knows about! That being said if people get disgruntle like WTO worldwide it’s going to open up either a civil war between police, military and civilians, OR, it’s going to create crime and rioting on a wide scale furthering bringing the countries economy to it’s knees thus starving for a financial reset countrywide. The issue brought up in relation to this movie is that when push comes to shove we have more man power than the Machines but for how long? I think after about 20 years since this WTO riot happened we are now soon revisiting a larger scale situation of losing our last oasis of freedom, which is our own bodies. Whether we rise up for civil freedoms, chaos, anarchy, or even peace, we must rise up for something, otherwise we will all fall for any stupid thing that prison lip reality TV star says. West Seattle UP and the government hoes down!
