Did you see the GoFundMe page. . . . it's funny. The article about the gardener said that the gardener was in agriculture. . . I have never used his technique of just laying down cardboard and putting garden soil on top to plant. Apparently I have been busting my butt for years now for no reasons. . . :rolleyes::rolleyes: Yeah that deserves a two eye roll.

LOL Danilgrl! I’ve got to eye roll with you. That they are trying to hold this up as some type of accomplishment is hilarious and shows MUCH ignorance. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

He is indeed attempting to make a lasagna garden. The cardboard is put down to smother the grass and then he poured probably bags of top soil on top. From the picture no way is the topsoil deep enough to support the plants he has planted AND come on we all garden... them black folks are gonna be waiting awhile for anything to eat from that garden! :lame:
 
the cardboard is merely to suppress the grass or weeds, it dosent matter if you poke holes in it or not, most plants can punch through it, I used a similar method for my potato tyre towers and had no problem growing loads of potatoes.

Potato tyre tower? Something like this?

Lasagna gardening originated with a book "Lasagna gardening" by Pat Lanza. First Edition November 1998. It originated in Crossville, Tennessee. Not 30 minutes from my front door. Lanza was a military wife who had seven children. They moved because of the service every three years. Gardens improve with proper care every year so it was like going back to base one in gardening time and time again.

Lanza used knowledge gained from helping her grandmother garden in the mountains of Tennessee to help her start a new garden wherever they moved. Tennessee mountains have soil exactly like the area I live in and the soil took work to get it into proper garden shape.

When Lanza went to work and had less time to work in the gardens she began looking for an easier way to garden without all the digging, hoeing and weeding.

Lasagna gardening uses the principles of gathering the organic “lasagna” ingredients used to create layers: newspaper, cardboard, peat moss, animal manures, shredded leaves, grass clippings, vegetable peelings, stalks, coffee grounds, spoiled hay, compost, straw or barn litter.

To make a Lasagna garden outline the area you want to have a garden and put down the layers of ingredients you’ve assembled. The first layer you need something heavy to smother the existing grass and weeds.

Use thick overlapping pads of wet newspaper and cardboard. Next add 3 inches of peat moss followed by 4 to 8 inches of organic mulch material, another layer of peat moss, another of organic mulch until beds are 18 to 24 inches high.

Wet each layer after putting it down. Wetting the layers helps them to start to cook and break down. You can “cook” your lasagna garden by leaving it to heat up and decompose for six weeks. Cover the bed with black plastic and weigh down the edges with bricks.

The original lasagna method plants/seeds were planted in the layers on TOP of the cardboard/newspaper.

I have no intention of getting too invested in this. My personal opinion for what it is worth. The city of Seattle is pacifying these people long enough for this to blow over. Do you think these people are not hot out there. What happens in the winter when it gets cold. This guy with the garden is going to feed all these people with a garden the size of my truck? They want publicity and attention. When John Q Public moves on so will they. There will be another shooting somewhere else or another riot or another crisis and this will fade from public view if the media lets it. As long as someone like this biker group or some other radical group doesn't show up trying to make a point. Is it right. NO. But it is probably the safest way. It rubs the wrong way but in the end the city is not going to just surrender all this infrastructure so some group can have a love in. JM2C

I gotta say, i’ve been out here defending the CHAZ a lot, and wrote the city council in support of it as someone living here. But last night a guy tagged my building with “move tf out” and “this is gentrification”, etc. and i’m pretty pissed off about it. Especially when i found out that my building manager had asked earlier that day if they could move the barricade so that we could have access to our garage, and the guys at the gate gave her a bunch of grief about how “we were part of the problem” and we represent gentrification. I guess it just seems too connected to be a coincidence, and it sucks because i’ve been really supportive of the protests, and everyone else i’ve talked to in the building has been too. I’ve been out marching, protesting at the police line, and videoing the police aggression despite their intimidation.
And i know you all know how important that documentation of police actions by the citizens living in the apartments around here was. It’s just really disappointing to get treated like that by people who i feel like should want to collaborate with us.

You’re making a lot of assumptions about who I am and they kind of people that live in these buildings. A lot of the tenants here are medical personnel-nurses, PA’s, social workers and doctors- who live here because of the proximity to the hospitals and the light rail up to the UW campus. We aren’t your enemy.

Oh. You said, "my building," so I assumed that meant your business. If you're just resident, then yeah- that's mad disrespect and not adherent to any theory. If someone is petite-bourgeoisie by owning the means of production of others- even if it's a local hip restaurant- then they are part of a system that needs to be dismantled. It still wouldn't justify personal attacks or intimidation. But who am I- I'm not managing the revolution. And anyways, this is far from a revolution. It seems just like an elongated protest focusing on a few reasonable demands that I believe the city would be insane/heartless not to accept. Seattle has some nasty cops.
 
So I was a little worried about home security until I read the the above posts and looked at the Twitter feed supplied on this page of the thread. Now I'm not worried. It would be very difficult to find a bunch of more pathetic, moronic, incompetent losers all grouped together for a cause. If this is an indication of what we have to go up against, there is not much to worry about, on a national scale. These idiots are learning first hand why all these laws we have are needed, and how they evolved, and why democracy works so well. In the post about being given a cow, the guy tripping on acid or something rolling around in the garden, destroying all the plants is priceless. It's like the Three Stooges on methamphetamine.

Highly doubtful they are learning a single thing! Any people who are as moronic as their actions and texts show are a lost cause.

Isn’t it unfathomable that these Dem trained morons can’t figure out that in order to have even the basics of life there must be production? I guess as long as food and drinks continue to magically appear they won’t give it a thought. The so called garden wouldn’t feed a person for a day.
 
báizuǒ (白左), literally means white (白 bái) left (左 zuǒ) and it is indeed a derogatory term in Chinese!

But the term is a relatively new phenomenon, coined in 2010 in an article titled The Fake Morality of the Western White Left and the Chinese Patriotic Scientists

There is even a Wikipedia page about the term:

When we devour these communities you are going to need to massively scale up our reeducation capabilities. I plan on giving you the old rotating restaurant on the space needle as a base of operations. Make me proud.

I can’t believe that America has sunk so low as to have a rapper be the face of a movement. I’ve also heard that they want to change Stone Mountain to another rapper, outkast
 
I don't believe any of these protesters have a brain in their head, the vast majority are doing it because others are, and for no other reason, like the snowflakes that they all are.

LOL. I thought I was reading one of my own posts! :D:D:D

In numerous tweets they proclaim this..”The tears of my oppressed people sustained me last night. We know what it means to suffer! Revolution!!! #SeattleAutonomousZone #Seattlechaz #CHAZ

These boys are real drama queens! LOL

You will get a belly chuckle out of this tweet.
:D :p :D
Vegetary Discrimination” is real The #CHAZ gardens are expanding So progress is being made But plants still aren’t growing in the garden for black & idiginous people However the gardens for black allies (white people) are sprouting “
