Did Atlanta Police walk out?

The "call outs" by officers, as a spokesman referred to it, come after two Atlanta Police officers were charged in connection to the death of Rayshard Brooks. _____

Instead of calling 911.
Call the mayor's office.

[adamruehle]

the “innocent citizens in their homes” have turned agains the police so why would they help

[anniescott]

Atlanta Mayor: we need you to come in right now...

Cop: call Social Service...

[elizafernandes]

Just walk out, the mayor doesn’t deserve your help, stay up at night checking drunk drivers may put you guys in jail

[Brighteon]

If I were a cop in America I would quit right now.

[RonUS]

I bet you can't find ammo in any store within 30 miles of Atlanta now.

BLM: DEFUND THE POLICE
BLM: DONT STAY HOME THINK OF ALL THE PEOPLE WHO NEED YOUR HELP

[Robertshakes]

They all should quit and let the mayor and council patrol night shift

[HieuNguyen-jict]

Remember when the democrats said you dont need a gun you can call the police. How is that working lol

[welcometototalitarianism]

Let the mayor and the D.A. answer the 9-1-1 calls.

[cedrickfoster]

I don't blame them they got a family and they not trying to go to jail if they have to use they firearms

[davidc]

Another agencies ain’t coming to help.. not while the Paul Howard is the DA.

Atlanta Police Officers should all move to cities run by Republicans where they will be respected and appreciated and above all be supported, not scapegoated and thrown under the bus.
Let the Mayor and the DA protect the city, they can determine right from wrong in an instant and pass judgement too. Go ahead Bottoms see if you can rise to the top without someone to step on.

[andylassiter]

Good for them. Me'think perhaps they should have thought about that before tossing their law enforcement to the mob. Now this is without a doubt worse than the mob.

[BillBogan]

The job is not worth it now! Good luck.

The citizens of this city have been asking for the defunding of the police. Now they're getting a little taste of what they are asking for. If you defund the police. you are going to have fewer cops to respond to calls. They will have to determine which call is priority and which ones are not

[neverpanic]

Good for them ! When your local city officials can't support your police officers, they have no reason to serve the city that betrayed them. Come to Texas, we're still hiring !

[wayof]

I think all police officers go on strike. They don’t deserve this type of discrimination. I would like to thank all police officers for continued sacrifices and all that they do. The way the communities are treating you does not reflect for the whole community as they are still that support you. Blue lives matter 👮‍♂️👮💓

Atlanta: We need your help, but we will arrest you for doing your job and take away all your tools you need to survive criminal encounters.

Police: Nah, I got a family and I love my life.

Altanta: But we need your help...

[benjaminvalenzuela]

Well Felecia, I suggest you grab a baton and get out there and help those citizens.
