“The 61 defendants, just 13 of whom are from Georgia, are members of Defend the Atlanta Forest, an anarchist, anti-police, and anti-business extremist organization,” the attorney general’s office said, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

A total of 61 protesters have been charged with violating the state’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations act. Some face additional charges of domestic terrorism, arson and money laundering. Most are not from Georgia. …

Traveling to another state to shoot police officers, throw firebombs at LEO, torch police cars and commit mayhem? Gee, what kind of people would do that? And how are they funded?

[Follow the money! And, as Glasser says, especially when it comes to bail. That funding could be very revealing indeed. I wonder how many of these people and their funders had ties to the BLM/Defund the Police riots in 2020-21? I’d be surprised if there was no overlap at all, and I suspect that the Venn diagram may be one circle only. — Ed]
