A shooting on Capitol Hill early Saturday left one teenager dead, another person critically injured and raised new questions about the city’s capacity to provide emergency and medical services to the protest zone that has taken over the heart of the neighborhood for the last 12 days. (Snip) What does a neighborhood look like with no armed law enforcement? The answer, if nothing else, was peaceful. Graffiti abounded. So did camping and litter. The area sometimes felt more like a festival than a sit-in. But, after nearly two weeks of daily hostile standoffs between police and protesters, the tear gas

The loss of the black man is on CHOP. They take armed anarchist possession of the land and wonder why the ambulance didn't come?

After the MURDER of a teenager and the CRITICAL WOUNDING of another person, Mr Gutman's ability to write the stunningly bland "What does a neighborhood look like with no armed law enforcement? The answer, if nothing else, was peaceful" reminds me of the old "joke" "Other than that, Mrs Lincoln, how did you like the play?"

He "just wanted to be loved." I guess he was loved to death.

And of course, Sawant, the communist Councilmember from India says it was an attack by right-wingers.

Article says 1st 911 call came at 2:19am. Why did somebody call 911 to begin with? I thought that was verboten in the zone.

FTA But many agreed on at least one thing: CHOP asked for ambulances that never arrived.
And the medics (real ones) and the ambulance drivers have learned something about going into protest areas... no police equals no safety for them. Unless you let the cops in , you aren't getting medical help.
BTW... were the shootings just more non-violent protesting? In which case, what's the prob?

Hey, to make a totalitarian omelet, you gotta break a few eggs. What are a few dead bodies compared to the wonderfulness of a Communist, racist nirvana right there in the middle of Seattle?
/s off
The mayor's new hobby....destroying the city and killing people.

CHOP, the world's newest city. But it is a city without a police force, a manufacturing base, without trash pickup, doctors, dentists, or Starbucks. No shirt, no shoes, no service, and no life.

Well, Mr. Gutman, what you're really saying is that black lives don't matter as long as blacks are killed in the socialist totalitarian country of Chop?

The only lives that matter to leftists are the lives of those with the most power at any given time.

I figured out the new name for this hell hole.....
Jennyville.
In honor of the woman who made the whole thing possible, and the crucial person making sure that these thugs are safe from the laws being enforced, as they kill people and trash the whole area.

I would feel sorry for the 500 or so residences in the zone if I believed they weren't politically agreeable to the zone. But I suspect it isa radical hipster enclave. Therefore I don't care.

All new societies have to create their own pecking order. These children of daycare are just finding this out.

Unbelievable. Someone is murdered and they say everything is now lovely and peaceful since the body has been dragged away.
