Why The Sudden Violence In Seattle?

Maybe the whole CHOP thing wasn’t the greatest idea.

On paper it sounded great sure, but we all knew eventually it would be shut down. So it’s a cop free zone for protesters. (To the best of my knowledge). Then overnight an executive order from the Mayor comes out to shut it all down. Yeah, kind of asking for a WACO situation.

That’s why there have been other people shot included the death of Lorenzo Anderson on June 20th and another 14-year-old that was injured in the shooting that happened Monday morning.

Cops have released what they believe to be more than enough evidence to support their use of force in the recent nights:

Police have released a video documenting the acts of violence inside CHOP over the last few weeks; gunmen are seen prowling on the night of Mays Jr's death
DailyMail.com has contacted police for the latest on their investigation into the fatal shooting to determine where any of those in the video are suspects

Second Teen Killed

At least 23 people were arrested at the Capitol Hill Organized Protest (CHOP) zone Wednesday which has seen two deadly shootings and crime rise by more than 500 per cent in just over three weeks. 

A second teen, Lorenzo Anderson, 19, was shot dead on the protest area on June 20.
