Oh sure...declaring yourself independent from Atlanta means crime will stop at city limits!😎
Like most cities Atlanta has a Soros funded DA. Close the revolving door legal system by having your own Police/DA/Court etc and the thugs will go elsewhere
In a typical affluent suburb, anybody walking down a residential street looking even slightly sketchy will quickly have cop cars rolling past them, checking them out. Suburban elites may virtue signal with "BLM" yard signs but if a group of "gansta" looking youths saunter by, the panicked housewives are calling 911. No doubt about it.

Hopefully they have a plan to disconnect from the MARTA subway. Otherwise the gang members and other criminal have an express train in and out of Buckhead.
Ask the residents of Beverly Hills, California if they have the same crime problems as the larger City of Los Angeles (they don’t).
