Summer of love lalalalala.
Was it a CHAZMANIAN that died??
Worthless mayor had blood on her hands. She shoudl spend the rest of her life being told that whenever she steps out of her hole.
Are these guys just laying around and shooting up heroin while holding weapons?
I checked carefully
closely
but still in the end
I see this as
play stupid games, win really bad (or lethal) prizes. IOW, WGAS?

Seal ‘em in, let ‘em all kill one another. Rinse, repeat.
They’re an autonomous zone. They’re own their own.
So far in comparison to the real police, the CHAZ security is MUCH worse. We did not need an experiment to prove this hypothesis, but they gave one to us anyways.
How is the hypothesis of less police working elsewhere?
So far the numbers are very bad. For people who just spent 3 months telling us we have to “follow the data” they sure don’t pay attention.
So this is the second person who’s bled out thanks to Chopistan’s policies and “medics” and personal vehicles to transport mortally wounded victims.
What a model for a new society!
The mayor bears full responsibility for this event.

More Americans died in occupied seattle than in Afghanistan
The story circulating in CHAZ is that some outsiders, supposedly conservatives, drove into the fields did donuts while shooting the place up. They came back and were met by CHAZ security who opened fire on the car with a lot of firepower.
1 more dead because Durkan has not retaken Chaz/Chop.
Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best confirmed later Monday morning that both victims of the shooting were Black males. Best said the second person fighting for his life in the hospital is a 14-year-old child.
Best spoke in front of the East Precinct as protesters interrupted her yelling “Black lives matter.”
The Seattle Police Department said officers were investigating a shooting near 12 Avenue and Pike Street, where two people were reported injured.
That corner is about two blocks away from Cal Anderson Park, where protesters initially camped out in tents to occupy the area first referred to as the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, or CHAZ.
The encampment has become more difficult to manage, drawing violence and a large homeless population since the onset of the occupation three weeks ago.
City efforts to dismantle the CHOP were thwarted Friday when a protester laid down in the street to block Seattle Department of Transportation crews and heavy machinery from removing barricades around the occupied zone. Crews left after two hours without removing the barricades.
Negotiations between city leadership and organizers over the weekend did not prove fruitful, as hundreds of protesters have reportedly refused to leave the Capitol Hill area.
Andre Taylor, who has fought for police reform since his brother was shot and killed by Seattle police in 2016, says CHOP’s armed “security” responded to a threat in the exact same way police would have – with deadly force. He questions whether that undermines their message.
This is not the first shooting linked to the CHOP. The first fatality was recorded on June 20 when a 19-year-old protester was shot around 2:30 a.m. near Cal Anderson Park on 10th Avenue and East Pine Street inside the area referred to as the CHOP. Another man was injured in the incident.
“Officers attempted to locate a shooting victim but were met by a violent crowd that prevented officers’ safe access to the victims,” Seattle Police Department said in a press release at the time.
“Officers were later informed that the victims, both males, had been transported to Harborview Medical Center by CHOP ‘medics,’” it continued. “Officers responded to Harborview and were informed that one of the victims, a 19-year-old male, had died from injuries.”
The death prompted Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan to announce last week the city would begin efforts to dismantle the CHOP, asking organizers to convince protesters to disperse to avoid police intervention.
A 17-year-old was shot in the arm around 10 p.m. on June 21 near Cal Anderson Park.
“To ensure the safety of medical personnel, police staged with Seattle Fire at the edge of the CHOP area and were gathering information about where the shooting victim was located when they learned he had been transported in a private vehicle to Harborview Medical Center,” a police press release said.
He has since been released from the hospital and declined to speak with detectives.
A man in his 30s was shot early June 23. Police received multiple 911 calls around 4:30 a.m. to report someone had been shot in the 1100 block of East Denny Way.
“Officers and Seattle Fire Department medics staged nearby and met the victim outside the area known as the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest (CHOP),” a police press release said.
“The victim refused to provide any information about the circumstances surrounding the shooting or a suspect description to officers. Medics transported the victim to Harborview Medical Center for treatment of a gunshot wound to the calf.”

Where are the red blooded, hungry, ambulance chasing vulture lawyers we have come to hate so much? We need them!
If I had a law license I would running TV ads saying:
“Have you or your loves one been hurt by the recent violence by BLM? have you suffered personal or business losses? have you suffered physical harm or assault?
If so you may be due substantial compensation to restore all your personal and business losses, and further compensate you for your emotional distress.
Did you know that large businesses like Pepsi (who recently contributed 300 million), XXX, XXX, and XXX have funded directly or indirectly BLM and as a result they are complicit in the damage done?
Call us to see if you qualify for your due compensation”
And then just sue the pants off the large corporations that are paying ‘protection money’ or ‘virtue signaling money’ to these anarchists.
When I retire I will take one of those online courses here in CA and become a lawyer, just so I can do stuff like that.
