Lynnwood council, jarred by anti-Semitic rants, approves tax increase

LYNNWOOD — It was supposed to be a public hearing about the city’s first property tax increase in two years Monday night at the Lynnwood City Council.

Instead, three commenters disrupted the meeting with a series of anti-Semitic and racist comments over Zoom.

The first speaker called for a city declaration condemning Israel’s actions against Palestine before descending into a vulgar anti-Semitic rant. He nearly finished his allotted three minutes for public comment, before Mayor Christine Frizzell told him to “clean up” his language.

Another speaker, who gave an Everett zip code, rambled about anti-Jewish conspiracy theories.

The anonymity of the internet brings the assholes out.

1. would certainly agree about A-holes slithering out

from beneath their rocks ...
But wouldn't a city council Zoom meeting provide a certain amount of 'identification' for speakers? (usually there is a 'sign in to comment' provision?)

2. Not initially if someone used an alias

But I'm sure they could find out.
