From the "Take back your city!" files: Seattle Police Chief Blasts CHOP: Two Men Are Dead, ‘Enough Is Enough’
During a Monday press conference, Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best said it was time for CHOP to close down. “Enough is enough,” she declared. “Two African American men are dead at a place where they claim to be working for Black Lives Matter.”
A 16-year-old was killed in CHOP Monday. A 19-year-old was also killed June 20. Another 14-year-old is in critical condition from one of the CHOP shootings.
As Best spoke, hecklers chanted and blared horns to drown out her responses to questions from the press. Best said over the noise, “That is so rude. This is what I’m talking about. This kind of behavior is irrational and unacceptable.”
