Atlanta is getting sporty

From the news story:

"Police are patrolling the area, from a distance"

AKA not patrolling the area.

The suspect accused of burning down the Wendy’s where Brooks died, Natalie White, has been arrested and charged with first degree arson. There was a protest outside the jail last night demanding her release.

The level of dumbfuckery by these brain dead mfers across the country is something to behold. Hopefully their allowance will run out before they have to reap the consequences of what they have sown. But frankly, I've reached the point, (okay, I'm well past the point), where I think cracking some eggs will have a cathartic effect and soothe the nation.

I think those days are long gone. Those protesters in ATL are armed. What I saw on that video is a gross misdemeanor in this state (5K or 364 inside). It's gone way past cracking heads.

I believe what we have here is armed insurrection. https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlo...-insurrection/

Then the state must put it down. These folks do not represent "we the people" but "we the few".

I think it will be eventually. Personally I don't think most understand what we're seeing here but it soon will become apparent.

We are going to be in a quandary. There are armed “citizens” around the burned Wendy’s with long weapons - shotguns and rifles. Local TV stationed interviewed and armed local with shotgun cited Second Amendment rights and noted that police were not protecting so they have to protect themselves. Will be interesting if the narrative of the brave protestors claiming 2A rights is viewed by media in a positive light?

I am not so sure about that, ranger, but I do agree that a quandary might be in the works.

I find these 'citizens' ' appeal to a protection afforded them under the rule of law—specifically, the Second Amendment—to be especially dubious given that they have suspended the rule of law by their actions by driving out the police, threatening the police and others, and enggaging in wholesale criminal activity like rioting, looting, arson, aggravated assault, and vandalism. If there is a quandary to be involved in, I suspect that it might be theirs.

I've got my popcorn ready for the video of the inevitable educational beat down.
Motherfuckers pointing long guns and declaring they own parts of town is begging for some education.

I'm surprised there haven't been any militia-types, posses or rooftop resistance anywhere yet.

That Lansing video still has my blood pressure up.
