There was an incident in Seattle on Saturday night that you’d think would have gotten more national attention.
A man armed with a gun crashed his car into the front of a federal building in downtown. A call was made by the police that shots had been fired. They arrived to find the man still holding an assault rifle. Multiple officers ended up shooting him, killing him.
Caution for graphic language

Seattle’s Federal Building garage door damage is seen Sunday. It appears that the car was there to prevent entry and not to cause a crash. @davidlgutman‘s report: Seattle police shoot, kill man downtown after he crashes into federal building, police say https://t.co/EORNQQv49r via @seattletimes pic.twitter.com/RKsDcNJlxA

The Hill
Olga Sagan was the owner of a bakery and stated that her business had been closed due to recent crimes.
“How many shootings do we need to have to realize this is an active emergency in downtown Seattle?” Sagan asked. “The streets of downtown have been abandoned by government,” she said, “and handed over to criminal activity.”
The Democratic leadership long ago gave the city over to criminals and radical leftists, a tragedy for both the residents and business owners.
This raises the question: Why was this man ramming into a Federal Building and then shooting a gun?
KOMO’s Jonathon Choe reported that “activists” disrupted the Seattle Police’s press conference on the shooting, and hassled the security that they had on the scene.

The person who was killed in the shooting hasn’t been identified yet, as far as I can tell, which seems a bit delayed. So, that makes me all the more curious if the person who was shot by the police was a radical leftist, or if there’s a reason they’re holding the name back. In February after some members of the leftist group were shot, activists disrupted a Portland press conference.
In addition to noting the disruption at the press conference, Choe also explained that he has personally been harassed, threatened, and attacked by ‘activists’ over the past months. He said he was even called a “white nationalist” (he’s Asian) by someone who used an anarchist symbol in his name, whom Choe said has been harassing him since last year.

Choe’s thread explaining a lot of interaction is illuminating and long, and also shows how he was attacked while trying to cover their vandalism of Whole Foods, so I’m linking it here.
So, here’s a question: where’s the federal action investigating the radical leftists in Seattle, Portland, and elsewhere who have been involved in actions attacking federal property for the past two years? We already know that the local action goes nowhere because the Democratic politicians aren’t interested in dealing with leftist actions. A three-hour, non-continuing riot is the most visible. However, we see very little over an organized and ongoing effort to take down the federal government.
