Brief protesters in Washington threatened ‘serious force’

The day after police harassed protesters with paprika to try to topple a statue of a former president near the White House, Trump also threatened harsh prison terms against “anarchists” who damaged national monuments.

“I have authorized the federal government to arrest anyone who destroys any federal monument, statues, or other property … or destroys them, [baudžiant] up to 10 years in prison, ”wrote D. Trump on Twitter.

“As long as I am its president, there will never be an ‘autonomous zone’ in Washington. If they try, they will be greeted with great force!” He warned.

Trump was referring to a district established by protesters in Seattle two weeks ago without a police officer, which angered conservatives.

Police were not allowed into the six-block Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone of Seattle on Saturday when a man was shot there, and on Monday, the mayor of this west coast city announced that authorities were planning to recover the control of the area occupied by the protesters.

In the capital of the United States, protesters attempted to overthrow a statue of Andrew Jackson, who was president from 1829 to 1837, on Monday night. He was attacked because Jackson had slaves and pursued a brutal policy towards the Indians.

Police took the protesters out with rubber sticks and a pepper spray, but before that the protesters managed to describe the monument with epithets and slogans.

Meanwhile, in St. At the Episcopal Church of Juan, near the White House, the letters “BHAZ” were written, meaning “Autonomous Zone of the Black House” (Autonomous Zone of the Black House)

Early Tuesday morning, police blocked the streets near the White House when Trump flew in by helicopter to speak to his followers.

“We are considering long prison terms” for those who damage federal monuments, Trump said, adding: “By the way, these are not protesters. These are anarchists and more.”
