My advice to you take a trip to Venezuela for say 2 weeks, you will definitely get a wake up call.

That said you simply you just don't get it, so basically it is pointless discussing facts with you.

Like a scratch in a old record.

But why ?

For all you pro-CHAZers, what if this would happen at the Morse / 466 gate?

That would be very interesting. With all the very well trained and armed retired military and law enforcement living in the Villages, I would guess the disturbance would not last long at all.

Right up front stating conservatives and the POTUS "...have a problem...".

Does that translate into the liberals and their politicians have no problem with what is going on?

If one is OK with it being in Seattle then it is OK if something similar were to happen on one or all of the town squares here in TV.
It would be OK if a similar group took over your village and you would have to submit to an ID check to get to your home.

BS! Set the :censored: politics aside. It is wrong.

The same goes for despots and authoritarian leaders...come to think of it.

Does that make me a bad person? :1rotfl:

Seattle Police Chief: ‘We’re Not Able to Get to’ 911 Calls for ‘Rape, Robbery’ in Autonomous Zone

“You should know, leaving the precinct was not my decision,” Best told her fellow officers. “You fought for days to protect it. I asked you to stand on that line. Day in and day out, to be pelted with projectiles, to be screamed at, threatened and in some cases hurt. Then to have a change of course nearly two weeks in, it seems like an insult to you and our community.”

On Wednesday, the Seattle Police Department said it would try to reopen the East Precinct, and Best was able to visit the location on Thursday. “Our calls for service have more than tripled,” she told reporters. “These are responses to emergency calls — rapes, robberies, and all sorts of violent acts that have been occurring in the area that we’re not able to get to.”

IMHO the situation in Seattle has nothing to with improving racial relations or trying to resolve racial bias in order to achieve mutual respect and understanding. Instead, I see radical terrorist ideology using an army to take over a city. This is an act of war, not a protest.
One has to wonder what ties to other terrorist groups, like ISIS, Boko haram or others, they may have. Which groups, organizations have organized and funded this horror.
In this instance I do not believe that there is true desire for a peaceful dialogue on the part of the terrorists. Once they see how far they can go they will sue for peace, only to move on to new territory and start over again, with ever increasing violence and terror.
Like a blackmailer, once they get you to bend to their will, the demands and threats only increase.
This can not and will not end well, I am afraid. It's like a deadly cancer and the treatment will be painful and recovery will take a long time. And, like cancer we will have to be more vigilant in monitoring the patient and react immediately and decisively to any re-occurrence.
Again, this is not, imho, an attempt to promote racial unity and harmony. It can only be viewed as a tactic used to create discord and devide us during this trying time.

I suppose it’s up to the people of Seattle to take back their city. Or they can live with what they voted in. I hope President Trump does not bail out any city!

What you have in CHAZ is nothing more then a bunch of spoiled brats that contribute nothing to society. I say let them have their experiment they just might learn the truth about what they preach. Cur off all services, including Cell and Internet. Line the out side with a barrier. Nothing in and nothing out. Have fun kids. You want to play, lets play.

Maybe, maybe not. When you have no fresh water, no sanitation, no food, no heat, light, internet, cell phone, I think they will rethink what they are dong. They have no leadership just slogans and passion. So give them a taste of reality.

However, if the mayor decides to send in food, water, medical supplies it will not go away.
The demands will eventually go beyond basics.
The average citizenry both inside and outside will soon decide, enough is enough and recall/fire/toss out the mayor.

Wishful thinking. Why would they care one way or another. It’s not their battle. Certainly is entertaining to think about though

The Hell's Angels thing was debunked but there is a group planning to retake the area on July 4th. I believe before this is over there will be violence there by two different groups. This should never have been allowed to get to this point. Protesting is a constitutional right, Anarchy is an insurrection. They should be removed from the area and charged accordingly.
