From Daily Mail: Dozens were arrested after violence broke out between woke protesters and police at a religious rally in Seattle.
Christian activists from On Fire Ministries hosted their ‘Mayday USA’ rally at Cal Anderson Park on Saturday.
The event was described as ‘standing together for Biblical truth and values’ as part of the ‘#DontMessWithOurKids’ movement, according to the organization’s Facebook.
Counter protesters showed up under the theme of ‘Keep Your Bibles Off Our Bodies,’ according to Fox 13.
The Seattle Police Department (SPD) was called to intervene. They arrested 23 people after violence broke out.
“Police working to keep two different groups apart, witnessed multiple people inside one group throw items at the opposing group around 1:30 p.m. Saturday,” SPD said.
“Officers immediately moved to arrest the people responsible, and while taking the individuals into custody, were assaulted by more protesters, resulting in even more arrests. In total, officers arrested 11 during the initial scuffle.”
Officers are making multiple arrests at a protest inside Cal Anderson Park. Orders are being given to protesters to back away from officers and to stop throwing items at officers.

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell spoke out against Mayday USA, claiming it was a far right rally and that the violence was caused by “anarchists” who “infiltrated” the event.
In another concerning statement, Harrell claimed, “Today’s far-right rally was held here for this very reason – to provoke a reaction by promoting beliefs that are inherently opposed to our city’s values, in the heart of Seattle’s most prominent LGBTQ+ neighborhood.”

Great reporting from our neighborhood by @choeshow. Great response by the Mayor and Chief. Violence at protests can and must be stopped.
