The Seattle Police Department regularly disrupts people in the park.
This evening after the General Assembly (GA) people were gathering in small social groups chit-chatting. Sharing experiences of the day, earlier petition discussions, etc. Most people were standing around, some sitting on benches or curbs and a few people were sitting on a yoga mat and the so police moved in. Mind you, the GA had been over for no more than 30 min.
No code cited. No ordinance quoted. No law was broken broken. However, because the people who were sitting refused to get up and remove the mat, the police decided to make an arrest for not complying to their orders to disburse.
