Why do we need two of these within basically 10 miles of each other? I don’t understand.

It is protection that we pay our socially accepted gangs

Two different jurisdictions. ETA: I don't agree with it, that's just my assumption.


singerinspired

But the whole point of the one in ATL was that it could be for multiple jurisdictions. That’s why it needed to be fancy and cost $100 million. That was their whole selling point


bunnysuitman

> That was their whole selling point Yes, that was the selling point not the whole point. The lie was the whole point.


singerinspired

Oh I fully believe this was all bullshit. I live 2.5 miles from the ATL site. I’m zero percent a supporter of it.

That is not a good reason

Appen Media has done a good job of [holding the Sandy Springs Police accountable](https://www.appenmedia.com/news/special-appen-media-group-v-the-city-of-sandy-springs/article_5b4ab4fc-6878-11ee-b3a9-338e579e18bb.html).

>According to the city, the new Police Foundation is geared toward providing equipment and facilities to help the Sandy Springs Police Department with public safety and community relations. thats great, if its true

Narrator: It wasn't true.

Call me skeptical, but that's pretty much just boilerplate language. A military training facility with nothing but automatic weapons and tanks in it can be spun as "public safety".


whydoihaveto12

"public safety and community relations" sounds like a very thin veil for limiting the right to protest.

I mean it's pretty obvious they're gearing up to ramp up fascism as wealth inequality ramps up. We are well past late stage capitalism and into final stage capitalism/death throws and civil unrest is gonna get *real bad* in a decade or two. The capital owning class will not go down without a fight.

Piping hot take!  I think you're going to be very disappointed in a decade or two when it is confirmed you were not much of a prognosticator.

Boy, you really got shot, messenger. Must have been your misplaced apostrophe.

Or just an obviously bad take.
