Well, we had a weekend of mostly peaceful protest in Atlanta, where a group of mostly peaceful protesters saw six arrested, following the arrests of 7 last Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Environmental protesters have been upset over the site of a new Atlanta police training facility. One of them, Manuel Esteban Paez Ter\u00e1n, got himself shot and killed by police\u00a0 Wednesday after shooting one of the Georgia troopers. (“Mostly peaceful.”) Protesters claim Ter\u00e1n was ‘executed’.<\/p>\n
Following this unacceptable display of self-defense, more outraged mostly peaceful protesters came in from out of town to, as you might expect, mostly peacefully protest.<\/p>\n
\n\nSix people were arrested on charges of domestic terrorism by Atlanta police Saturday night following violent riots carried out by Antifa activists who shattered windows, destroyed a police car, and vandalized walls with graffiti.<\/p>\n
Five of the six people arrested came from out of state to cause mayhem. One of the arrested, Francis Carroll, was out on bail for domestic terrorism and is the son of a wealthy Maine family, according to investigative reporter Andy Ngo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum said during a news conference that authorities made six arrests Saturday and recovered explosive devices after the protesters damaged property along Peachtree Street, a corridor of hotels and restaurants.<\/p>\n
Masked activists dressed in all black threw rocks and lit fireworks in front of a skyscraper that houses the Atlanta Police Foundation, shattering large glass windows. They then lit a police cruiser on fire, smashed more windows and vandalized walls with anti-police graffiti as stunned tourists scattered.<\/p>\n
The violent protesters were a subsection of hundreds of demonstrators who had gathered and marched up Atlanta\u2019s famed Peachtree Street to mourn the death of the protester, a nonbinary person who went by the name Tortuguita and used they\/it pronouns.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Aw, isn’t that nice, they told us the pronouns Little Turtle used to want to be called by. Nowadays I guess he prefers “the deceased”?<\/p>\n
Too, sounds to me like Mr.\/Ms. Carroll might have a slight problem with their (just to cover most of the favored pronouns) bond. Violating your bond usually throws you back in the pokey with no bond set – meaning you stay there till trial.\u00a0 Works for me.<\/p>\n
Side note – the confused child (Jared? Riley?) of Katherine Park, the House Democratic Whip, was arrested in Boston after ‘she’\u00a0 mostly peacefully graffitied a local monument. Oh, and mostly peacefully hit a cop in the face.<\/p>\n
Boston police arrested 23-year-old Riley Dowell on Saturday night after allegedly defacing the Parkman Bandstand Monument in the Boston Common with spray paint, according to a police department release<\/a>, which used a previous name.<\/p>\n
The graffiti Dowell tagged on the monument included \u201cNO COP CITY\u201d and \u201cACAB,\u201d an acronym for \u201cAll Cops Are Bastards,\u201d according to police.<\/p>\n
An officer was reportedly hit in the face during Dowell\u2019s arrest as some 20 other protesters surrounded the officers, shouting profanities through megaphones and blocking traffic on the nearby public street.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
