A cell of antifa terrorists operating in Atlanta, Georgia, has been attempting to stop the building of what they call “Cop City,” and to that end, they have resorted to various types of violence, including some that resulted in arrests.
Part of their terrorist plot involves violence against police in an attempt to stop the building of the police training facility they call “Cop City.” One antifa cell member allegedly shot at police and was himself shot and killed as a result; seven of his “comrades” were then charged with domestic terrorism.
Note that not one of the arrested terrorists is even from Georgia.
CNN reported earlier this week:
Seven people were arrested and charged with domestic terrorism following the fatal shooting of one person and the shooting of a Georgia state trooper near a proposed Atlanta police training facility, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.Opponents of the project – a $90 million, 85-acre planned facility dubbed “Cop City” by activists – had been camped out for months in the forest in an attempt to stop construction. When law enforcement began an operation to remove people from the area Wednesday morning, gunfire was exchanged, GBI Director Mike Register said.. . . . “The individual who fired upon law enforcement and shot the trooper was killed in an exchange of gunfire,” Register said.
This outraged the already perpetually outraged antifa terrorists, and they announced that they would be organizing and engaging in a “Night of Rage.”
They made good on their promise Saturday and took to the streets of Atlanta to terrorize residents and business owners in retaliation for the death of their “comrade.”
They quickly learned that Georgia is not Oregon and Atlanta is not Portland. Their “Night of Rage” came to a screeching halt before 7 p.m.
Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum told reporters that multiple protesters were found with explosive devices on them. One of the devices was used to set an Atlanta Police car on fire.Protesters — who hit the streets after calls for a “Night of Rage” by Antifa members — were also seen throwing bricks at Atlanta Police Department vehicles smashing property, 11Alive reported.At least six people were arrested and three businesses were damaged, police said.Just before 7 p.m., police said “order has been restored to the downtown space.” . . . . Schierbaum said the protests began peacefully marching in the city around 5 p.m. when some members began smashing property. The ATF and FBI are assisting with the investigation.“We already know that we have arrested actors that have already been involved in other criminal activity and are involved in a manner to deter the building of the public safety training center,” he told reporters.
The scene was horrific before police arrived to stop the violence and property damage, and it’s a good thing that Georgia isn’t messing around with these known, and apparently well-organized (and well-funded), terrorists.
Needless to say, people have thoughts.
