Yes we've recently been reminded of how well this works with CHAZ/CHOP.
- colesantiago 6y agoCHAZ/CHOP actually succeeded by being formed by the people but as always the police ruined it and dismantled it. It would have been entirely different had they not got involved.
- nailer 6y agoThat's not correct. The deaths, assaults and racial segregation occurred without the involvement of police.
- kevingadd 6y agoCHAZ/CHOP is a horrible example since most of the discourse about it is based on falsehoods and exaggerations, and it existed in a state of constant conflict with local law enforcement. There were certainly many good things about it, but I'm not sure you can learn much from it in the grand scope of things other than "it won't work out well, because most forces don't want it to exist". There are definitely examples out there of more successful self-governance, though.
