Here are my thoughts.
If a precinct (legally defined boundaries) do not wish to have police and sheriff patrol their precinct, then that's fine. HOWEVER, any crimes committed in that area will have no way to have the cases sent to the DA for prosecution.
These folks have essentially created a "no-go zone" of their own making. Since there is no way to arrest anyone for law breaking (who will arrest them and using what authority?) it becomes a "Lord of the Flies" scenario.
This also becomes a defacto secession...the laws of the US, state, county, and municipality do not apply to this precinct. Since the laws do not apply, how can/should they receive any other city services like water and sewer, fire department, etc?
It is pretty clear that these "progressives" have not thought out the implications of their demands.
