An attorney for the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), a prominent left-wing activist organization, was indicted on domestic terrorism and racketeering charges for his alleged role in Atlanta’s “stop cop city” riots.

Thomas Webb Jurgens, an attorney for the SPLC, was one of 61 people indicted in Fulton County, Georgia for participating in the “stop cop city” movement, according to an indictment released Tuesday.

Greg Pricell Twitter

“On or about March 5, 2023, Thomas Jurgens did join an organized mob and succeeded in overwhelming the police force, thereby aiding and abetting in the offense of Arson and Domestic Terrorism in an attempt to occupy the DeKalb forest and prevent the building of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center,” the indictment reads.

The “stop cop city” protest movement began during the George Floyd riots in summer 2020. It used violent demonstrations to fight against police and government activity on an estimated 255 occasions, the indictment states. Prosecutors singled out activists from left-wing group “Defend the Atlanta Forest” for protesting the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, a $90 million police training facility known as “cop city” among progressive activists, according to the indictment.

The DC calling this a “protest” is the height of Leftist propaganda. Protestors don’t burn up expensive construction equipment and place punji stick booby traps in and around the work site.

This isn't Willis doing this, but yes, it is probably just for show. This GOP AG could have done this well before now.

So, I wonder that since the SPLC is headquartered in Montgomery, would Alabama AG Steve Marshall have any ability to connect the SPLC to “sponsoring terrorism”, and thus shut it down?
