I’m at City Hall today where the regular Finance/Executive Committee meeting has been moved to the chamber in anticipation of a crowd. That’s a lot of chairs reserved for APD as council members are expected to take up training center funding. #gapol #atlpol

The killing by police, of a U.S. environmental activist, stunned and shocked the world.
By March 10, the GA Bureau of Investigation *still* had not turned over the investigation, not until April 14. #gapol #gasen #atlpol #StopCopCity #JusticeForTortuguita #aespaXChopardAtCannes #HYUNJINxVersace

Nearly 300 people signed up to speak during public comment & all opposed Atlanta City Council plan to allocate millions of taxpayer dollars to private Atlanta Police Fdn that wants a controversial police and firefighter training center in South DeKalb. #gapol #atlpol #grift #landuse

Everyone is in favor of protecting our nation's waterways – a resource millions of Americans depend on – from destruction and pollution.

Every community has a right to clean water.

Cop City costs are far more than what was originally presented.

Double-speak and lack of transparency throughout.

Taxpayers would like to know what the total bill for us will be!

Wednesday Jan 18, around 9.04am, an as-yet unnamed officer or officers shot and killed Tortuguita.
Dozens of officers from Atlanta police, Dekalb county police, Georgia state patrol, the Georgia bureau of investigation and the FBI.
The killing stunned & shocked the world. #GApol

What exactly is “high-quality, community-oriented training” for police?

And why hasn’t it worked much over the last few generations? 😬

Why would half dozen Georgia Troops kill an environmental activist? ME said Tort had no gsr on their hands.

Atlanta almost withheld police department funds. What’s changed since then? Council members, & Mayors.
Local activists are frustrated after calls to reimagine public safety captured the nation’s attention, the city isn’t listening better. #gapol #atlpol ajc.com/news/atlanta-n…

This Policing continued until the end of the Civil War & during Reconstruction, the patrols were replaced by militias to control formerly enslaved people & deny them access to equal rights.

They relentlessly enforced Black Codes, strict local and state laws.

The origins of modern-day policing go back to the 'Slave Patrol.'
Originally seen in the Carolinas, early 1700s, to squash slave uprisings w/the capacity to pursue, apprehend & return runaway slaves to their owners. To control & produce desired slave behavior.

Kids who spend over three hours daily on social media face “double the risk of experiencing poor mental health outcomes including symptoms of depression and anxiety.”

Eighth through tenth graders spend an average of 3.5 hours per day on social media.

While ATL City Council members who do not rep the training center area consider funding the project, a DeKalb commissioner who does rep it is threatening a lawsuit as another part of runoff pollution claims... saportareport.com/lawsuit-threat… #atlpol #gapol

🏦 Fancy profiteers always have $$$ for CopCity. They block full ACA healthcare since Kemp wants to “expand Medicaid to the poor” but only w/a work requirement. 🤨

The Biden WH already blocked that proposal, a move that #Georgia has sued him over. #StopCopCity #GApol #ATLpol

Gray’s firm violated securities law, made 'material misrepresentations' incl that there were others in the fund when in fact there were none.

As a result, the firm had collected more than $1.7M just in fees. #StopCopCity

Atlanta politicians face growing pressure to vote against giving $31m to ‘Cop City’

“It’s hard not to get cynical. What conditions have to be met for people to be heard? What is enough? Will they ever be heard?”
