Cop City is one of the worst ideas to come out of the police industrial complex for a long time. It’s the template for a police state, fostering separation between police and the communities they’re here to serve. It’s the last thing we need now. theguardian.com/us-news/2023…

The police have no duty to protect you they do not serve you they serve the Constitution not the people!!! This is one of the biggest most misunderstood facts of the police force! Supreme Court has ruled multiple times police have no obligation to protect you!

Noam Chomsky said this would happen, 30 years ago. The Establishment is bracing itself for increased civil unrest caused by neoliberal policies that have humiliated and impoverished millions of middle and working class people

I don't think this is an issue about the need for a police training facility, it is about taking a valuable public space for that purpose. Why be anti police? That is not a Dem value.

Oh I thought it was a training facility. I thought more training was what everyone wanted

It’s not called cop city, it’s the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center that conducts specialized training for both law enforcement & fire dept service workers. Seems needed considering democrats & socialists have created the anti-law enforcement culture and crime is rampant.

We need to stop these pushing of escalation violence. They want to make the mind to think always in violent terms of people are guilty till proven innocent. But we need them to prove this is a necessary thing. We need a department of peace for the cops as well.

Police protect property, not people.
