I read this article and thought, wow, moms out there marching. I thought of: Moms walking their children to the school bus Moms working all day then coming home to help their children with homework Moms cooking dinner Moms watching TV with their kids Moms taking their kids to the zoo, etc But never did it occur to me that "Wall of Moms" (@wallofmoms official twitter) is a group that describes themselves as "PDX-based network of womxn and non-binary mother-identifying folx" So what what does that even mean? Do they even have kids? So confused. Edited July 28, 2020 by expat_4_life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopDeadSenter Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Any idea what is happening here in Seattle? I accept as I have been instructed multiple times that the "defund the police" movement does not mean defund the police. Sounds confusing, but fair enough. So what on earth is the Seattle police chief going on about? She thinks the left are trying to cut funding to the police by 50% (FIFTY PERCENT!!). Who is right? Who is wrong? What a mystery. "Seattle police chief pleads with city officials to 'do the right thing' and call for 'aggressive' protesters to stop marches on her home because she opposes 50 percent cut in cop funding" https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8590435/Seattle-police-chief-pleads-city-officials-call-protesters-stop-marches-home.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it the lure of free Panasonic TVs and toiletries. Rioting Protesting beats sitting in mummy's basement looking at social media all day, IMO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
