Antifa Attacks Atlanta Police Foundation, Police Cars—But It Doesn't End Well for Them

Antifa Attacks Atlanta Police Foundation, Police Cars—But It Doesn't End Well for Them

Nick Arama reporting for RedState 

Leftist radicals and Antifa people called for a “night of rage” for Friday night, in response to the killing of a radical protester, Manuel Teran. Teran was reportedly shot and killed in Atlanta, Georgia, after he allegedly shot a police officer without warning when the police came to “clear” the leftist occupation of an area under construction to be a police training center.

Their calls for a “night of rage” seemed to fail on Friday when, apart from a couple of “vigils” here and there, there was no violence to speak of directed at police across the country as they had wished.

However, on Saturday, they tried to put some of that violence into action against the police in Atlanta. First, they marched with signs, including one that said, “They can’t kill us all.” Are they all intending to shoot at cops?

Then some of them broke off and attacked the Atlanta Police Foundation with rocks and fireworks. They also spray-painted graffiti on the building.

Radicals also attacked two police cars and set at least one on fire.

From Fox News:

“Atlanta Police officers have responded to a group damaging property at several locations along Peachtree [Street],” the Atlanta PD said in a statement Saturday, according to Fox 5. Several arrests have been made at this time and order has been restored to the downtown space. This is still an active and ongoing investigation and we will not be able to provide specifics on arrests numbers or property damaged, at this time.”

Here were some of the arrests. Play stupid games, and win stupid prizes.

Here, the arrested woman claims she “can’t breathe,” even though she’s standing up and no one is preventing her from breathing.

She’s read too many leftist talking points, I think.

Meanwhile, the police released a picture of the gun that Teran allegedly used to shoot the police officer.

But facts don’t matter to Antifa and the radical “forest defenders” — they think they are right and their violence is justified.
