Looks like the peace officers might be better called "piece" officers

Are there people within the CHAZ borders who want to leave? If so, how is this not a case of mass kidnapping and hostages? I don’t believe there are any who want to leave, but that has to be the plan so that the National Guard isn’t seen as forcing people to stay (which we all know the media WILL portray as hostages).

I heard on the radio this morning that the loony citizens of CHAZ have released a long laundry list of consumer goods and other items they want people to donate to them so they can continue their "cause". If they've run out of stuff in just two days to the point that they need to scrounge for charity, maybe they aren't as autonomous as they thought they were.

Oh no... you mean the tyranny of the moment didn’t plan for a lengthy siege (that might last past 2 days)? hmmmm... need to talk to their scheduler about that... OH WAIT, they don’t have one.

I think this is the Left's next plan of attack. To try and provoke Trump to send in our military and provoke a Tiananmen Square moment.

It's gratifying to see that cigarettes and body lotion are so high on their priority list. I guess lung cancer is fine as long as you don't have ashy skin.

Their shoes are worn out, and are listed twice? Maybe they're looking for a new supply of Birkenstocks.

Not very autonomous if you’re asking outsiders to bring items in.
The whole community is founded on delicious irony. Guns, mobs, ID check points, stop and frisk, judgement.

Read the thread from the Seattle Mayor--it will leave you speechless. A portion of her city has been taken over by armed radicals and she and the media are more upset at President Trump and his reaction to the lawlessness. This is Twilight Zone stuff. I believe we may have been given some insight as to why Seattle is the way it is....................... Some may be alarmed by what's going on but I think it's amusing as hell with all kinds of entertaining end games possible. I would agree the worst scenario right now would be to bring in some armor with the 75th Rangers and roll over the new nation in our midst. All you really have to do is watch that the place self destruct: "Hey, why isn't there any McDonald's?" "Who swiped my computer?" (they're anarchists, after all) "Hey, wait, there's no vegan food here." "We got any plumbers in this country?" "THERE'S NO F'IN' WIFI!!" Etc. etc. It reminds me of when my father was kept in the Navy for a year after World War II and made an MP. His job was to walk the beat with a local Albuquerque cop and monitor all the discharged, drunk Marines and sailors as they came piling through on the trains headed back to the East Coast When a fight broke out between a marine and a civilian in some bar my dad - being the typical 21-year-old hard-ass -jumped right in but the cup stopped him for about 20 seconds and then said "Now, go ahead." He broke the fight up easily and later asked the cop why he made him hesitate. The cop's answer was classic veteran wisdom: "They're hot heads. They'll fight like hell for 15 seconds and then one guy's going to realize he's getting beat and pray somebody will come to break it up." With sufficient time that we will happen here. I don't know if there are any normal people still trying to live within those "borders", but if there are and they're being harassed there is a moral obligation to protect them from assailants. They are American citizens and are entitled to equal protection under the law. If Seattle and its like totally woke mayor won't protect their rights the federal government may have to send in the military. In which case people are likely going to die. Not only would the feds have the right, they may have a legal obligation. Otherwise, just keep the place surrounded, don't let people in, shut off the water and power until a formal treaty is negotiated between Washington and our brethren in Chaz (these things take time, you know) and watch them fold like USC in the second half. It reminds me of the Paris commune of 1871. Just the "Onion" version of it...........Luca

If there ARE normal, well-adjusted people living in Chaz, I’d say they arm themselves... and wait for Hell’s Angels and Mongols to arrive (rumored To have temporarily postponed their differences and are on their way).

I believe there are normal folks living in that area. I read somewhere that there are 500 residents.
