Gun owners defend Seattle police chief's property from protesters

Protesters on the way to the home of Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best were met by armed residents of the neighborhood, leading to the quote of the day:

Protestor: “We are peaceful! You pointed a gun at my face!”

Resident: “That’s why you are peaceful.”

LOL:

Protestors on their way to harass the Seattle police chief ⁦@carmenbest⁩ at her home, encountered locals who were not in the mood to host protests in their neighborhood.

The group was reportedly part of a Black Lives Matter protest that targeted her home in Snohomish County:

Here’s her letter:

This is something: Seattle’s police chief posts letter to City Council, calling on them to denounce protesters who showed up at her home in Snohomish Co. “My neighbors were concerned by such a large group, but they were successful in ensuring the crowd was not able to trespass..” https://t.co/4SxFWTxH1a pic.twitter.com/bFynHRnUED
