In downtown Seattle, on Saturday August 18, 2018, at the Liberty or Death rally sponsored by the political organization Washington Three Percent, hundreds of police officers attended the scene. There were officers from the Seattle Police Department, the Redmond Police Department, the King County Sheriff's department, and more. The officers on duty included Seattle Police bicycle patrol Sergeant James Dyment. It seems like most of the work that the Seattle Police had to, involved policing the counter protestors, many of whom were associates of the communist/socialist/anarchist Antifa Black Bloc domestic terror group. As the these photographs also demonstrate, most of the officers who stood watch over the rally demonstrators who had a permit to demonstrate on the Seattle City Hall courtyard spent their days mostly just watching and smiling.
