Police Investigating Shooting Inside Seattle's 'No Cop,' CHAZ Zone (Two shot, one dead -"Summer of Love")
Newsweek ^ | June 20, 2020 | BENJAMIN FEARNOW

Posted on 06/20/2020 7:58:41 AM PDT by maggief

At least two people were shot and one was killed inside Seattle's Capitol Hill Organized Protest (CHOP) area early Saturday morning, and police say they are investigating despite it being in a "no-cop" zone of the city.

Videos recorded Saturday morning show volunteer medics scrambling to help the purported victims after Seattle Police Department radio dispatchers received multiple reports of three to six gunshots around 2:20 a.m. People involved in the incident were seen fleeing the scene north from 10th Avenue and East Pine street in the city's Capitol Hill autonomous protest zone, also called CHAZ. Seattle Police abandoned the closest East Precinct building on June 8th after days of confrontations with protesters in the wake of George Floyd's death while in the custody of Minneapolis police.

Police confirmed the shooting to Newsweek Saturday but offered no additional details.

Police arrived on the scene on foot and prepared with anti-protest gear at the border of the citizen reclaimed protest zone. East Precinct police radio chatter said officers who arrived on the scene were collecting shell casings and evidence, and the second victim had a gunshot wound to the arm and chest.

So let’s get this correct. The city still lets them use water, sewage electricity, wireless services, and now letting the police go in and help them? Ok got it.

The people of Seattle are getting the government they voted for. I don’t see the problem - enjoy your “Summer Of Love”, liberals.

The armed thugs have formed gangs and will battle it out for control of CHAZ.

Sometimes to make change you have to break a few apples. Or something. Will the ‘mare’ give them a stern warning that shootings with GUNS is not nice?

Well, that didn’t take long...

Husband asked last night if CHAZ/CHOP were still going on. I said “yes” - but all had gone quiet. The feds stepped back and were waiting for requests for body bags.

Predictable how this would end.

I know it’s an old, tired cliché but the left always eat their own.

No EMTs should have gone in. No one should go in until they are ready to take it.May the Seattle CHOP experience the glorious end of the Paris Commune they so seek to emulate.
