Antifa protesters mimic George Floyd screaming 'I can't breathe' as they're pinned down and arrested in Atlanta: Violent group torches a police car and pelts building with fireworks over activist's 'Cop City' shooting death

A protest in Atlanta turned violent on Saturday as demonstrators set a police car on fire and smashed windows of buildings Those being arrested screamed 'I can't breathe' as police detained them - despite clearly being able to breathe Marchers gathered to protest the killing of an activist by law enforcement on Wednesday during a raid to clear an autonomous zone dubbed 'Cop City'

Antifa rioters armed with explosives screamed 'I can't breathe' as they were arrested by police officers on Saturday night after torching cars, hurling fireworks and smashing windows with hammers in downtown Atlanta.

Clad in black hoodies, ski masks and surgical face masks in order to obscure their identity as they perpetrated acts of wanton vandalism, video footage saw at least three being pinned to the ground by police officers all the while screaming George Floyd's dying words.

However, unlike Floyd who died at the hands of Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin in May 2020, those who were being placed in cuffs on Saturday night were clearly able to breathe and they made their full-throated claims audible, in front of cameras.

The six rioters who were arrested have not yet been identified and their charges have not been released.

The police need to bring in some street sweepers.

Someone should have gone into the forest/cop city where the commies were sleeping with thermals and a suppressed .22LR while they were getting high and screwing in their tents. You just know they don’t have perimeter opsec at 3AM. You don’t let commies protest....you capture, displace, or kill them.

“Some used hammers to shatter large glass windows.” Did they just happen to find hammers in random piles? Maybe they mugged a team of carpenters who happened to be near by? I know it’s just my twisted sense of logic to think if there is a hammer at a “protest” it wasn’t a protest at all and the rioters brought those hammers to do just what they did.

These Antifa groups are violent domestic terrorists and need to be taken down by a well regulated militia protecting the US from enemies both foreign and domestic.

if that were to occur, which side, if any, do you think the government-funded (at all levels) forces would take?

Anyone who has enough breath to scream I cant breathe, like floyd did, can absolutely breathe. It is only when they cannot talk, that they cant breathe.

“if that were to occur, which side, if any, do you think the government-funded (at all levels) forces would take?”

Antifa’s of course. But that doesn’t change what our rights are as citizens of this country. If we do not do anything, does that mean we as a nation have succumbed to the narrative that the government gives us our rights and not the other way around?

National socialists, anti fascist socialists, difference to a functional Republic is no different. They both represent a threat.

The question is “Do we have a Republic?”

Antifa is a perfect terrorizing group the cartel and ME terrorist invaders can fit like a glove. Coming to a city near you…. complements of the veggie.

If Antifa protesters mimic George Floyd they would have O.D. by now.

Carr, State AG (Republican)...would simply slip in and press charges via the state level.

One odd factor here....some blacks are looking at this, and inferring ANTAFA resembles Klan-intellectuals. Destroying black-owned business would be a big negative in the mid-town area.

I don’t think these ‘kids’ would survive that well in a Georgia state prison.

I'm sure lily-white Antifa will think that all the black dudes in prison will be cool with them.

"Hey bro. I hate cops too! We cool, right?"

"Pull down yo pants white boy. I'm finna rape yo ass."
