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."

Atlanta cops aren’t feeling the love right now. Wonder why?

Part of it would be that I’d love to be able to gloat over the lefts meltdown on the day after the election.
