re: Georgia AG with a warning for Anti-ICE ‘protesters’…”We’re not Cali or New York”

The blacks in Atlanta will not put up with this shite. This is their city and they are not going to allow a bunch of foreign invaders destroy their city. They love Atlanta too much for them to take it. The blacks in Atlanta are different and if shite really gets out of hand, I could see both whites and blacks teaming up to protect the city

The reality is this:

- Black Atlantans won't be motivated to care about ICE protests in the same way Antifa rallied them to rage over BLM causes in 2020. That's probably true everywhere, but Atlanta in particular, for obvious reasons.

- That doesn't mean some element won't take advantage of unrest to be destructive or loot, because...it's Atlanta. I think it's a critical mass thing - some isolated, even out of control ICE/immigration stuff isn't going to get this going. I think it would have to get pretty sizable, as it will be more opportunistic than ideological/emotional.

Prior to 2020 Atlanta had minimal unrest through several cycles of racial stuff elsewhere. I don't foresee a significant issue this weekend unless this is a big enough thing that there are significant issues in a lot of major cities, if that makes sense.
