@lighterfandango @glennmerrill @JJusseroKIRO7 @KIRO7Seattle@SeattlePD@MarkDice The police are using something (pepper balls or pepper spray, flash bangs, tear gas?). SPD claims no tear gas and protestors claim tear gas; Idk, I wasn't there. But the police are wearing gas masks, so it doesn't rule out tear gas like it did in the D.C. case.
@SeattlePD It probably wasn't just a candle. If someone brings an improvised explosive to a protest, they're not peaceful.
If someone throws an explosive at you, you're going to do something about it.
To anyone who wants to peacefully protest, people like this guy are getting in your way.
