Atlanta has little to no police presence now

Something that's been overlooked in all of this:

These protesters, looters, criminals, thugs, savages, etc are actually SAFER with an effective Police Force (even if 10% are "bad apples")....

Because, when these cops quit, and the general populous starts to "police" it's own, it's going to be a GD Killing Field....

Yup. In the short term, the police protect the law abiding. In the medium and long term, they provide much more protection to criminals.

And to the extent police engage in systematic discrimination against minorities, I'm not sure the general population isn't going to be a good bit worse.

Exactly. No police = no 4th and 5th amendment right. No policy restricting violence. No use of force continuum. It will be back to vigilante gangs in communties rounding up people they think did wrong.

That worked out SO WELL before.....***********
