This photo provided by Fulton County Sheriff’s Office shows Lonnie Hood. Atlanta Chief Erika Shields fired two officers and benched three others involved in an incident with two college students during protests in the death of George Floyd who died after being restrained by Minneapolis police officers on May 25, 2020. A prosecutor announced criminal charges, Tuesday, June 2 against six officers. Hood is charged with two counts of Aggravated Assault and Simple Battery.
Sgt. Lonnie Hood and Officer Armon Jones were fired as a result of their involvement in the May 30 incident, police spokesman Sgt. John Chafee said in an email. Body camera footage shows a group of Atlanta police officers confronting 22-year-old Messiah Young and 20-year-old Taniyah Pilgrim in a car in downtown traffic caused by protests sparked by the killing of George Floyd in Minnesota. Video shows the officers shouting at the students, firing Tasers at them and dragging them from the car. Throughout the confrontation, the couple can be heard screaming and asking what they did wrong.
Jones is charged with aggravated battery for hurting Young’s left arm when he dragged him from the car and slammed him onto the street, a warrant says. He also is charged with pointing a gun at Young. Young suffered a fractured arm and a gash requiring two dozen stitches.

Good start. Keep it up.
They thought that the privilege applied to them. Them: 'We'll be fine, we're police officers' The System:
Black officers pulling criminals from a car. Stop the rioting!
Liberal city, liberal corruption. I’m sure they’re many more at all levels of the city government
Those officers were not protecting or serving those citizens. Contact your officials at each level of government & demand they support federal Reparations for Black American Descendants of Slavery. This government debt must be paid. ADOS 🇺🇲🇺🇲🏁🏁

Good if accurate
No protesters have been fired for attacking Police
I believe that the police are needed if for nothing else to give criminals pause. I do think that the bad seeds should immediately get the axe. Good on APD
A good start
Were the police Antifa?
