a comment on the protests:
"Thanks, this is really great to see. I’m glad that, although covid is a serious threat and social distancing/wearing masks combat the deadly disease, the virus respects causes like this, so...the Marshall Law Band are [not]required to wear masks/keep distance."

this shows the mentality of the group. LOL

The BLM and Antifa protesters are giving demands and orders to the Seattle and Washington State government, quote:

UPDATE 3:55 PM: Responding to reports from CHS and others of SPD using area schools including Bailey Gatzert and Lowell to stage and park equipment in preparation for possible responses to protests following the clearance of the East Precinct, Seattle Public Schools has released.a statement saying they informed SPD “they may not use our parking lots or school buildings to stage SWAT and the National Guard” and that the district has been informed “this will not happen again”

Last night, we learned that SPD, SWAT, and the National Guard used Seattle Public Schools property as a staging area in their response to protests. We did not give permission, nor condone, the use of SPS property for staging of militarized police or actual military. Schools should be safe, welcoming places for students to learn. Many of the spaces militarized police occupied are used for distribution of meals, learning packets, books, and health resources. These are spaces for student learning and supports, not for militarized responses. @SeattleSupt has contacted SPD and informed them that they may not use our parking lots or school buildings to stage SWAT and the National Guard, and has been assured that this will not happen again.

There are alternatives SPD can turn to. A staging area was also identified Monday night in Volunteer Park. Meanwhile over the weekend, CHS found scores of SPD patrol vehicles parked in a North Capitol Hill parking lot of a private school. We were told that East Precinct was on mobile status and CHS agreed not to publish the location. It’s not clear if Seattle Public Schools is extending its prohibition to standard patrol use. Other options for SPD could be area churches and parking lots at private clubs or businesses. UPDATEx2: Police were also reported utilizing staging areas at Seattle University and Seattle Academy. UPDATEx3: And now Seattle U has put out a statement that the university “has asked SPD not to use the campus or our parking lots.” (end quote)

June 9th is the second night of occupation of the 7 block area. It is unknown how much longer the city and state government will allow this "game" to continue.
