Black Lives Matter protesters gathered outside the Georgia governor’s mansion in Atlanta on Monday evening, only to learn Nathan Deal was out of the country.
But the lack of a governor did not dampen the spirit of the growing group. They reportedly vowed to stay as long as it would take to get a meeting with Atlanta’s Mayor Kasim Reed.
Police were monitoring the protest as a few hundred peaceful demonstrators amassed on the street. In order to manage the traffic flow and protect the protesters, police blocked the roads accessing the street where the governor’s residence is located. This move forced many to park at a nearby shopping mall and walk a few blocks to the protest.
The traffic control move also apparently prevented food and water deliveries to the crowd. This was something the protesters did not enjoy.
So when police got a Chick-fil-A delivery, one protester was not pleased — and let Twitter know about it, complete with video and commentary:

Take the camera away they go away ...thanks media.
Some of us learned in the 1960s and 1970s that you should pack a lunch and drinks when you go to a protest that might run long. Some of us also learned that some protests aren't worth the time and energy.
Not to worry. Pretty sure Hillary & Bernie's upcoming Democrat Socialist platform will call for free food deliveries at protests, rallies, lootings and liquor store robberies. There will be an app on the Obama phones! Alternatively just take a pic of your SNAP card; you'll be reimbursed.

Agreed!
Law enforcement would not allow anyone passed their lines due to safety precautions.
