Armed protesters 'take over' the streets near the Wendy's parking lot where Rayshard Brooks was killed and use crude roadblocks to prevent people from getting to their homes on the day of his funeral

Armed Georgians have 'taken over' the Wendy's parking lot where Rayshard Brooks was shot dead by police in Atlanta.

People who live in the neighborhood said the group of people brandishing firearms had blocked the roads making it difficult for them to get home.

Some gun owners were seen holding rifles or with pistols in their pockets while standing outside the fast food restaurant that was burned down the day after Brooks was killed by Officer Garrett Rolfe.

We lose until we retaliate 10 fold

1053 - you have a good point. LEO retaliation then becomes a deterrent going forward. Instead of words all the time - appropriate action.

Unfortunately folks will complain and monday morning quarterbacking - but its come time.

*they* are calling for a boycott of Wendy's for donating to GOP candidates. Everyone make it a point to eat at a Wendy's. We always turn around democrat boycotts and can do it again.
