On Thursday APD, the FBI, GBI, and ATF executed three search warrants and made one arrest in pursuit of evidence related to an act of arson on police motorcycles.
Thursday evening, a journalist asked if organizers [condemn] the arson.
@Maryhooks from @CopCityVote responded:
If you are feeling sad and hopeless that is completely understandable, but it's also a luxury we can't afford right now. Here's a list of some great organisations helping on the ground, just as a handy guide:
HAPPENING NOW: An autonomous group of protesters occupying the @nytimes lobby reads out the 100+ names of journalists murdered by the IOF. Upstairs, staffers attend an all-hands meeting of the Times. Lobby doors have been locked, cops called
