CHAZ/CHOP Creates Conflict Resolution Council, and the Rules Are SPECTACULAR
PJ Media ^ | 14 June 2020 | Jeff Reynolds

How long until CHAZ or CHOP or whatever it is jumps the shark? Faster than a speeding uptwinkle! More powerful than a communal drum circle! Able to leap tall police horses in a single bound! It’s a bird … it’s a plane … it’s the CHAZ Conflict Resolution Council! Chief Seattle weeps.

NOTE: It remains unclear at the time of this writing whether this is real or just an expertly executed troll job. It’s sort of like the Babylon Bee, if it is a troll job. It’s impossible to tell. Real or not, it’s glorious.

A post appeared on Reddit yesterday that lays out the new Conflict Resolution Council at the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) in Seattle, where anarchists and antifa types have blocked off an area of city streets for … well .. the purpose remains unclear. But the mayor thinks it’s the Summer of Love, and City Council allowed them to take over the police precinct building, so they must have some purpose. It’s a leaderless movement, of course, but nonetheless a purpose does exist. Allegedly.

A post-capitalistic utopia has sprung up that some call a block party, while others think it more resembles a war zone. In this Summer of Love utopia, apparently conflicts have arisen. Is there a “warlord,” or is he simply a fellow traveler who wants the best for humanity?

The whole experiment summed up in one perfect picture.

Oh, man. It took me three tries before I could get through it without laughing! This is comedy gold!

"Edit 9: Some women have expressed to us that they wouldn’t feel comfortable presenting a case involving a sexual offence to a Council that is partly made up of criminals with a history of committing sexual offences. We are placing a cap of 50% on the proportion of Council members who have performed one or more premeditated sexual assaults or rapes in the preceding twelve months. Homelesspersons and disabledpersons are exempt from this cap."

It's starting to read like the "Life of Brian"!

That is wonderful!

Except, maybe, just maybe, they haven't thought everything through.

We will form a unique system called the Conflict Resolution Advisory Council.

1. We hold a community democratic vote to appoint three people to the Council. To eliminate prejudice, we elect one Black man, one Black woman, and one white woman. Each person should undergo at least one 45 minute sensitivity and political training session which we can help organize.

What? No white man? Not even a gay one?

2. Whenever there is an internal conflict in the Zone, it will be put to the Council. Both people will have an opportunity to present their side of the story to the Council to review.

What if one of them refuses to put it to the council? Will they be arrested? Will there be an officer, stopping them from resolving the conflict by means of...conflict?

3. The Council members will decide on a fair resolution and provide it as advice. Initially the Council will be advisory only. In the future the system could evolve to become more mature with binding resolutions, impositions, retribution, enforcement, and imprisonment.

Enforcement? Imprisonment? Beavens to Hetsy!

The appointed people will hear out and settle any internal disputes within the Zone. We’re not suggesting that this Council members become leaders or judges, only referees in case of internal conflicts.

Ooh. How about trial by ordeal? The disputants play one-on-one b-ball, and the council referees the game.

Instead of settling their differences with "Feats of Strength", the better hackey-sack player wins the case.

...that or interpretive dance with a string on a stick.

What does Shepherd mean?
shepherd.
A shepherd is a person who herds flocks or groups of animals. ... Such a person protects sheep from animals that would attack them, keeps them from wandering, and otherwise takes care of the flock. The word is also a verb that describes care of a group — sheep, other animals, even people.

"Raz Simone is a peaceful supporter of the movement and a powerful shepherd.."

Appropriate use of shepherd as the chaz/chop denizens appear to be led sheep.

I am considering a vacation in the Republic of ChaZ. I take it being a friendly neighboring country I should be able to stay 90 days without a visa.

Turn off the power and water and block the border.

Parasites die very quick without a host to suck the blood of.
