Nothing but lemmings run amok.
Who have bluffed a naive or just plain dumb mayor.

I don't think there is much credit deserved by either for knowing much of anything about anything.

I don't think they care at all. They are a bunch of selfish spoil Americans.

Some white kids built a garden, but it was too racist, so now it is Blacks and Indigenous only. It could be they have built a second garden, for Blacks and Indigenous only, in that case I guess they like Segregation.

Attachment 84596

They've updated their list requesting donations, clothes are requested for Males only, seems kind of sexist but it's their country.

Attachment 84597

Like many struggling countries, they have no Fire Department so they called in Seattle Fire Dept when a dumpster fire erupted. If they decide to change their name, Dumpster Fire could be a winner.

Attachment 84598

I've heard that Black Lives Matter has disowned CHAZ and does not recognize their diplomatic status. Somebody should let the CHAZarians know, because painting a huge BLACK LIVES MATTER in the street is so far their biggest accomplishment.

They are socialists, but the supplies they've requested would be coming from an orderly capitalist society.

The garden they planted wouldn't replace the calories they expended to make it, lol.

They're complaining about things being stolen from their tents. I guess they do believe in private property after all.

Seems no lessons were learned from their Occupy Wall Street ancestors.

Key words are "Their private property"

Anybody ever watch Man in the High Castle? Where WWII had a different outcome and the US was dividend in half between the Germans and Japanese and in the center was that free zone? We should have all the liberals on one side and all the conservatives on the other. And let each part have their own taxes and laws, etc. IDK, sounds good to me! haha But who would go in that free zone???

CHAZ is an apolitical entity. They have no elections, no elected leaders, no government.

I'm pretty sure we can have opinions on that.

Chaz-sounds like something a Libertarian would love. Maybe THEY will all MOVE there.

Libertarians want limited government, not zero government. The end point of communism is zero government, they just never get there and get mired in fascism.

Maybe someone clued them in so they changed their name to CHOP......Capitol Hill Organized Protest.

But they have guns and drugs.

Why is there not more concern that the mayor and now the police chief have no problem allowing the "take over" of part of their city?

Selective law enforcement is the very real danger.

Law and order has been compromised to facilitate a protest?!

What does the average citizen of Seattle think. Is it not of interest the media has not gone in the see what the neighboring citizens think.

So a CHAZtopian discovers that someone has stolen his MacBook Pro laptop, $400 in cash plus a weeks supply of food from his tent. He let's the "council" know about this and gets this reply.

Please don't leave, we are stronger together

You don't exactly know what happened to your belongings (only that they vanished) so to say it was theft is not entirely fair.

It could be that a disadvantaged resident was in greater need of the items than you, and that's what we are about as a community. I know it is hard to hear, but treat it as an unplanned donation.

You did good today, I'm proud of you.
