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???
How ironic. I actually worked on the pilot for Man in the High Castle. Where was it filmed? Seattle.. lol

I thought no politics ? That includes opinions
CHAZ is an apolitical entity. They have no elections, no elected leaders, no government.

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

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.

What I find hilarious is that the "AZ" in CHAZ is "autonomous zone", yet they are asking for donations of food, clothing, etc. Guess they never looked in a dictionary to see what autonomous meant...

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.
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.

Hmm that will go over well.

Theft is now an "unplanned donation"

These are the people that some want to redefine our society.

That alone should scare the beep out of most law abiding, freedom loving Americans.

It should also be a huge red flag to the mayor and the governor....although at this point they are committed to facilitating the make believe protestors for political gain.

Bet they let the postal service in to deliver their welfare checks and food cards
