A controversial police training facility in Atlanta is getting closer to breaking ground, but the opposition has never been louder.
by police, the project is now close to breaking ground. And opposition is louder than ever.
“I’ve been to City Hall for some years now,” Micah Herskind, an Atlanta-based community organizer who attended the Monday meeting, told The Daily Beast. “But until the Monday city council hearing, “I’ve never seen the line at the door, even, of where the public comment sign up is. It was out the door, around the whole second floor, winding down the stairs, and then eventually went out through the building, through the security line. I’ve never seen anything like it.
The purpose of the meeting was to hear public comments on a bill that would give the police training project $33.5 million in city funds, approximately $16 million of which must be signed over to the construction project by the end of June. “People were not only talking about not wanting Cop City.
“Call it what it is: police brutality is police brutality. Stop trying to sugarcoat it. It’s police brutality, a police killing,”Hill also used the comment period to condemn the police killing of Manuel Esteban "Tortuguita" Paez Terán, an activist who was camping in the South River Forest in opposition to the Cop City construction. On Jan. 18, police opened fire on Terán’s tent, shooting the activist at least 57 times.
