    Well said.....Every Gov / Mayor / Police commissioner, should be required to publish an improvement plan for The Police under their jurisdictions. When judgement starts at the top in these States we should see improvement. To often the politicians skate and the accountability is lost.

    I've heard Seattle's CHUD district is pretty scary, though

    All of Seattle should just be called the CHOAD district.

    You read the article and it "seemed fair" is how you determine whether something is real or not.
    That's the whole problem with yelling fake news and railing against the media. It shows your implicit bias.

    Yes. It seemed fair. .. seemed. That's not conclusive... or "Determined real" like you suggest I am saying....

    Meaning I see it as incomplete. awaiting more info. I think its almost all biased. this guy might be biased as well, but I don't know enough yet. That's why I didn't make a comment on the link one way or another. I just provided it for public consumption around here. I just posted a link.



    So did you get your daily dose of your superiority complex flex here? I can post some more links and provide my opinion like everyone else, so you can continue to feed your complex. ;)


    You know, like in that other thread, where 15 people commented on the bulk of it, so no need for me to regurgitate what was said, so I pointed out a misleading title, and you flexed your ... whatever...

    cant post an opinion or a link without getting shit from the moral superiority complex members here....

    Carry on....

    SMH......

    From what I've personally seen at CHAZ. It seems 100% peaceful. I was there when the street preacher first showed up. He was honestly trying to stir shit up. Wasn't there when he was taken down. Not sure what precipitated this whole thing you saw at the body shop. Local news makes it seem like there were a couple of people that wanted to break in and burn the place and they were stopped by other CHAZ supporters. If you watch the video you can see how that might be the case.

    The fellow is right his own Government leaders have let his and his neighbor hood down.
    The Gov, Mayor & Police commish haven't done what they swore an oath to do.
    This leadership hopes it will escalate to the point that Trump will send in the troops and make him look as terrible as he is. Except I hate it when politicians play games and this is a game to the leaders of Seattle.

    Kinda what I got from it too. But what I mostly see is very little open communication from anyone in these videos. I keep hearing... "I'M done talking"
    I think more of the CHAZ leaders should reach out to the media and try to explain what they want, what it will take to have them disperse and how they plan to maintain a peaceful living environment for all until that happens.

    If the interview has been done and is out there, I haven't stumbled on it yet.

    I think it would do them alot of good though, if they actively tried instead of just let people report how they want what is going on in there.

    It's really difficult to discuss things with an organization that has a decentralized system. Not one person seems to speak for CHAZ as far as I know.

    How about this though?


    Not trying to start a media argument here, because I hear your points and I understand the frustration. You call the media fake news, but then you want these people to go to the media? I'm confused.
