As continued from another thread. Please feel free to add your thoughts, if you have numbers that is great too. EG, Gug, please forgive my lousy editing. Is Olympia an attractant for protest specific violence, and if so, why? I can understand the protests, but it really gets ridiculous in this city. One of the Olympian commenters said something interesting: Where was the violence in Portland/Seattle yesterday? Why Olympia? Submitted by Ehver Green on Fri, 05/02/2008 - 10:29am. combined. Much smaller than in previous years for the largest cities in Washington and Oregon. No arrests. In Olympia we have unconfirmed reports of 100+ marching. 6 arrests. They can't spell either. Something is probably wrong with your city when "hate about" gets more attention than "love about" Olympia.
