CHOP Officially Turns Violent With Second Shooting

According to Firearm Chronicles

Over the weekend, those of us paying attention to Seattle’s Capitol Hill Occupy Protest (CHOP) saw something we knew we’d see sooner or later. In an era with absolutely no police presence allowed, we’d see some pretty serious crimes. Oh, there’s plenty of hippy-dippy feel-good stuff in the CHOP to make fun of, to be sure, but police don’t just arrest criminals. They deter crime.

When you don’t have any around, you just encourage the monsters, and that’s what happened in the CHOP.

On Saturday, it was reported that two individuals were shot in the autonomous area of Seattle, one fatally.

One man was reported dead and another person was shot and wounded in an overnight shooting at the Capitol Hill protest zone.

Police have confirmed the shooting but have not released further details. It was not clear if any suspects were in custody.

UPDATE 10:10 AM: Seattle Police have confirmed CHS’s early reports on the shooting and say that a 19-year-old is dead and that there have been no arrests:
