Thank you for bringing attention to this story. I worked in the construction business years ago. My family is still involved and knows many people with Brasfield & Gorrie. It's appalling what is happening to the B&G people and the other contractors involved. Why is little to nothing is being done to stop it?! I don't care what side of the aisle you're on, this is wrong.

It is no surprise to anyone on this list that the progressive's response is "No one said they were ANTIFA so they aren't ANTIFA." SMH. A quick and simple search of the posts on the Defending the Forest site provides links to Riseup.org which is based out of Seattle and has international backing. Add to that, that their About Us page has everyone assigned code names of various birds AND their expressed, stated goal is anonymity supporting anarchists. This is a subversive effort from foreign powers that ABSOLUTELY needs to be addressed. It will not be until we can get the GOP in control in 2024, and even then it will requires someone with a spine and guts to do something. I lament the course my country seems to be set upon.

The FBI is too busy arresting senior citizens that were tourist to DC on Jan 6.

Kemp needs to deploy a team of special forces veterans to go in there and kick some serious ass. Wipe the entire nest of snow-flakes out and send a message that if they FA in GA, the will FO.

There is solidarity with the left MSM, the Democrat party and the violent comrades of Antifa and BLM. They are all the same basket of irredeemable deplorables.

I have communicated with my City Councilmember, who is a strong supporter of the training center and frustrated as I am. He points out Dekalb has been slow walking the required permits and wishes Atlanta would just annex the land (part of Atlanta is in Dekalb Co. already). I wish the Dekalb DA would file RICO charges on all these people. Finally, I think it likely that media types pull their punches when writing about Antifa because they’re afraid of what they might do to them and their families.

Seems quite convenient in lite of the misplaced Classified Documents. The White Antifa Nationalists of the Democratic Party.

It should be obvious to all that the justice department (small j until reformed), the media and the democrats (small d until destroyed) are at war the anyone that disagrees with them. Literal war. Kinetic war. And free people? Ha…peasants.

The only way to deal with this is SWAT. Get in there, clear the land out, and shoot anyone who doesn’t comply. Their only language is violence, so SPEAK IT.

Good summary of where we’ve stooped as a society to accept this terrorist behavior. Unacceptable.

Roughly half the US population now believes we're a country founded upon the rule of feelings, not the rule of law. The "Defenders of the Forest" - whose name sounds like a team of teens at a LARP convention, BTW - are "acting in the interest of Mother Earth and saving our planet, so they should get a pass because their hearts are in the right place." I'm sure you could look at Hitler or Dahmer and make the case that they had a rough youth, but that doesn't exonerate them from their criminal activity!

Who knew that “just an idea” would produce organized and systematic violence?

Brian Kemp better do something fast and decisive lest he risk CHAZ. This is Lord of the Flies level BS.

The fact that the media is not calling this terrorism is telling. The thing is, call something "terrorism" is like calling someone "racist", the left does it so often and thoughtlessly it has no meaning. Until I read this "terrorism" never crossed my mind, this is criminal behavior.

I try to be thoughtful and not jump to conclusions when I see news which is I find upsetting, for a better word, but when I read how a pastor was charged with the FACE act for a minor altercation with an abortion activist threatening his son and arrested at his home by roughly 10 armed agents. When I read about parents at school board meetings being labeled domestic terrorists for verbally confronting board members and when I read about the destruction of 60-70 privately funded facilities which help poor pregnant mothers to safely have their babies instead of abortion and it takes the FBI 6 months to release a few shoddy pics and a 25K reward, I'm can't help but honestly think the FBI has a serious bias problem. Can you tell I hate to jump to conclusions? If someone has another side of this story to share, I'd be interested in hearing it.

Won’t stop until there is a real armed conflict between the groups. Not just Antifa but BLM as well. They will attack a facility but there will be an armed response. It will be a large scale battle with people dead and mass collateral casualties.

The media will spin it that antifa was “protesting” when they got attacked heralded by somber music.

It will happen and it will be the beginning of a civil war although not on the scale of the last one. I hope not. But clearly the government and LE is handcuffed to do anything.

I really hope these people are stopped, arrested and made to sit in jail until a trial. Then go to prison. They have been getting away with this terrorism for way too long.
