Not much it would seem, as if you watch the vid, the news guy asks if people lying down in front of the bulldozers will be arrested and the reply was nope, if that happens, the workers will desist (paraphrasing).

I thought they took steps to dismantle after the kumbaya peaceful community had 2-4 shootings over a weekend or so.

The steps consisted of asking then to leave, then sending city workers to remove barriers. CHOPPERS pulled a gun in the city workers and lay down in front of their heavy eqiuipment, so the city workers noped outta there. Per the video link above.

The mayors who sit back and do nothing when terrorists take over should be arrested and charged with treason.

Absolutely. There is a huge problem because politicians are not held accountable for crap like this.

I want to know what "taking shelter" in the police station means?' Have they taken the building over?
