Armed protesters 'take over' Atlanta Wendy's parking lot where Rayshard Brooks was killed, reports say

Armed protesters stood guard on Tuesday at an Atlanta-area Wendy's, the site where Rayshard Brooks, a black man shot twice in the back by an Atlanta police officer, died earlier this month.

Earlier in the day, a group of people had "taken over" the burned-out property in South Atlanta, according to local reports.

People living in the area also have complained that the protesters who remained were no longer peaceful, but instead were using the space for their own gain and at times blocking people on the street from getting by.

They claimed the Atlanta police weren't doing much to solve the problem, making life for those living in the neighborhood a living nightmare.

"My husband literally just missed getting caught in the crossfire when he was on his way home," Kimberlee Jones told WXIA. "People have been shot and have been hurt."

“CHOPlanta has a certain ring to it“

They got mad at us before for doing the chop. They need to make up their minds!

All the suburban counties and municipalities will not render mutual aid to the City of Atlanta due to the political prosecutions of Atlanta police by Fulton County DA Paul Howard. And they’re not keen about going to the other cities in Fulton County.

Sure, taking over a burned down Wendy’s is just the ticket.

If Trump wins, divine intervention will be the only explanation.

And I would LOVE to see it.

A lose/lose situation for cops. No matter what they do, they are to blame for everything wrong in this 'hood. Where were the "good folks" in this neighborhood when APD needed their support?

Hmmm, but they can’t provide even one picture of these armed protestors?

Leave it untouched as a monument for the people of Atlanta.

How apropos. It is the zenith of their culture.

No ... the violent protesters are making life there a “living nightmare”. You have all $hit on the cops there, so take care of the problems yourselves!

Well-played.

Unfortunately, the Wendy’s will not be open for business for any hungry Democrats, ooops I meant to type “protesters” there. Not.

A new CHAZ?
