Background:
On May 25, 2020 news of George Floyd's death in Minnesota rocked the Nation. Going into June violence erupted as Black Lives Matter and Antifa groups rioted, looted and calls for Defunding the police emerged. Seattle was in the news for the Autonomous Zone known as Chaz. Democrat cities were besieged with protests in the streets. You couldn't go to church or open your business but rioting and looting seemed to be accepted. President Trump called for Law and Order but the violence continued. As Americans we believe in free speech and peaceful protests. This however, was Anarchy.
