I agree with many of the points you make. However this whole situation was headed for trouble the moment CHAZ/CHOP began. Anyone who was an adult could have seen that. I asked at the beginning of this whole mess a few weeks ago if Seattle’s mayor was a Commie and I was told she was.
At that exact moment I knew this would end badly.
Well you’re sharp and most people are not having the ability to obtain and process the information as you have.
If blame must be cast, the channel of the information flow must be examined. This Mayor deliberately distorted the information flow, the Seattle City Council didn’t bother to correct the Mayor’s information distortion, the Governor appeared uninterested in the information flow, the corporate news media and their local news affiliates joined the Mayor in the distortion.
The bottom line is the local population around CHAZ-CHOP were not informed through no fault of their own. And a kid is killed because the information channel was distorted and jammed.
It’s analogous to a military unit walking into an ambush because the enemy jammed their communications.
Ultimately, the media in this country are to blame.
