SEATTLE -- Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan has banned the police use of tear gas as protests continue in the city and nationally over the killing of George Floyd.

Durkan said in a news conference Friday afternoon that the ban would continue for 30 days.

“After hearing concerns about the use of CS gas for crowd control purposes earlier this week ... we decided we were going to suspend its use for 30 days,” Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best said.

Well, when one side believes good cops are dead cops this is what you get.

Progs are pathetic.

Why 30 days?
After that time period, it’s ok?
People have lost their ever lovin’ minds.

Apparently they ran out of gas. So they announced it as a ban to try and gain favor.

I live near Seattle and its a shite hole. Its sad what has become of a great city. I would go there a few times a month to walk Pike Street market and the waterfront. Not anymore.

I used to go there a few times a year for work. 20 years ago it was a great city as large cities go. Went back a couple of years ago and it looks like a permanent homeless convention.
