--- Quote ---Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp issued a state of emergency order Thursday ahead of potential protests in Atlanta over the weekend in an effort to prevent the unrest and chaos that occurred during last week's riots.

The order calls for 1,000 National Guard troops to be called up. It expires on Feb. 9.

"Georgians respect peaceful protests, but do not tolerate acts of violence against person or property," the order states.

The order said the state of emergency was declared because of "unlawful assemblage, violence, overt threats of violence, disruption of the peace and tranquility of this state and danger existing to persons and property."

Atlanta had riots. The body cam video of Tyre Nichols is to be released on Friday. Could this lead to riots?

Of course it will. The newest race hustler Benjamin Crump is already stoking it. He's learned well from his predecessors such as The Wrong Reverend Jesse Jackson and Al "Charlatan" Sharpton. One can tell if Crump appears on TV: he's always wearing a $5000 Armani suit.

I'll reserve judgment until I can see evidence, which normal people do when it comes to incidents such as this. Obviously hope for the best and that civil unrest is minimal.

Old n Grumpy:
It’s sad to see the violence and destruction go on with no attempt to stop it.. our so called leaders are not fit to lead if they can’t call this for what it is and put an end to it.

The failure to call out the black community to wake up and put an end to letting blacks riot at will with no consequences is not good for anyone..

Only those who are looking to tear down civilization

Drafe Hoblin:
Okay.  A bridge was shut-down in Memphis.  That's it.

Not much happened nationwide, like I was thinking.

If we have situations where reporters outnumber the protestors, this story will shrink in relevancy lightning-fast. 

Yeah, the video looks 'awful' but there's a huge backfire-element as it relates-to the Floyd/Chauvin video... which looks hauntingly orderly and void of hate.

Eupher:
From what I read this morning, the five BLACK police officers involved in the incident that resulted in Nichols' death were fired from the Memphis police department and arrested. They're now out on bond.

Black on black violence is still somehow propagated and conducted by whites, eh?

The media are complicit in failing to make the distinction that the cops involved were all black. IOW, Kemp's declaration of a state of emergency in Georgia is designed to minimize looting, rioting, injury, and property damage of ...

... wait for it:

... largely black businesses, property, and lives.

This is weapons-grade stupidity. Kinda makes me think that those who riot and destroy just want to riot and destroy -- they don't need a reason beyond that. :whatever:
