A number of people have sent us links about the sign on the front of the EAV Barbell Club in Atlanta. <\/p>\n

The owner says that he’s had a long time standing policy against cops and active duty military members in his club. From 11Alive<\/a>;<\/p>\n

“We’ve had an explicitly stated ‘No Cop’ policy since we opened, and we also don’t open membership to active members of the military,” he said.<\/p>\n

For Chambers, a lifelong political activist, the sign and policy is a political statement outside a multi-use space which serves as a gym, community gathering spot and meeting place for activists in the metro area.<\/p>\n

He says groups who work out there are generally minorities who are uncomfortable with the presence of law enforcement agents.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the video interview at the link, he went on to claim that the police serve capitalism and white supremacy and for that reason he doesn’t want them in his club. <\/p>\n

The Atlanta Police Department would not comment on the policy, but told 11Alive News, “Were we to respond to an emergency there, this sign would not stop us from lawfully doing our job.”<\/p>\n

“If they have a warrant, they can go anywhere they want, but we’re not breaking the law,” Chambers said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That’s fine, it’s private property and he can do whatever he wants, but he also has to suffer the consequences of his politics. I wonder what stupid excuse he has for keeping active duty members of the military out of his little shit hole club.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
