    Somebody's got to be first to fail at this, why not Seattle. However, I fully expect the Mayor and city counsel to give up any security details at city hall and escorting them.

    Public Safety Monitors (PUBES) get a special hat and when they see something unsafe, they say "Don't Do That"

    Works for me. People of Seattle can change this via the power of the vote or by moving.

    Is there a nice house on a hill overlooking Seattle I can rent. Sit out on the porch with some popcorn and watch the city burn to the ground, hear the wails of anquish come from the woke democrats.

    I can hear it now. The violent criminal turns to run as soon as he hears "IM CALLING THE PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICES!"

    Just another left wing government employee with a union contract that says he can't be fired and also guarantees yearly raises. But in the end, it's not WHAT is a community led safety system, it's how well will they be trained and will their insurance cover their mistakes?

    So why even bother to comment? Hard to have informed input when you dont watch.

    They won’t be the ones who suffer their mistakes but any dope who chooses to live there or is too poor to move out AKA citizens.

    So, instead of a speeding ticket, I get a dirty look? OK.

    Hahaha, they just signed up for extortion. Businesses are going to end up paying "protection money" to keep their businesses and neighborhoods from being terrorized. That's what happens when there is no real law enforcement with the ability to use lethal force.

    @modernpaladin - You said it well & said it succinctly... what we can expect ~

    But now, with the genesis of this breech of Constitutionality 'we' will have to delve much deeper...

    btw @ modpan... I luv your polls! a big fan

    Well as long as they're gender affirming I can't think of any reason why this won't be successful. Perhaps supplemented by something similar to what we saw in the great nation of Chaz which proved law enforcement wasn't necessary.

    Job Alert: New Security Rover jobs now available in Seattle. Must own a bicycle and have a whistle and smartphone with functional camera and video recording capability.

    Typical day patrol will be roving thru Anarchist controlled zones via blitz bicycle peddling method, while taking pictures and videos to be live streamed to HQ computer data base just before Anarchist assaults the rover and dismembers both rover and the bicycle

    Surviving rovers who manage to escape and return to HQ will receive free emergency health care and a bonus monetary reward for serving while on a hostile front

    If you say it in plain English, it's too easy to understand.

    You have to bury the truth in buzzwords so it's not so obvious that what you're saying is batsh!t insane.
