City officials said that out of an abundance of caution it was warning residents and visitors to avoid the area and said buses in the city will be suspended.
A far-right group, Three Percenters, applied last month to hold a rally with more than 2,000 people at the park on Saturday, according toOfficials denied the application because of violence that erupted at a similar event in 2016, Reuters reported.
IT WOULD STAY OPEN NO MATTER WHAT FOR A GODDAMN BLM RIOT
'Nationalist' being proud of your country. MLK, Ghandi and Mandela were all Nationalists.
If Trump wants his image carved into a mountain it would be better suited to go up on this racist abomination in the peach state.
actually believe there's room for negotiation here. buy starting point clearly needs to be the phrase 'our history.' now see that's not really true. it's really only the history of those who sold people's babies, ok? now: 'history stopped for most significant progress' huh? huh?
hold on a second here, something's being missed. look if you cross an ocean in a wooden boat, powered only by the wind! hey you've proven without a doubt slaves aren't needed, so selling their babies to power your economy, yea! that needs some kinda marking, right? right?
Ugly as hell. Reminder of the LOSERS. Just carve LOSERS above them.
So that means Trump will be looking at cartoons to articulate what he's encouraging
Tear down that wall
Good👹
Avoid the chaos and shop online.
Exactly how is the 'Three Percenters' group a White Nationalist group?
Why did they allow the Black Militia to protest on 7/4 but won’t allow the white people to do the same?
So does that mean Barr’s militia are going to show up and grab people, put them in unmarked vans, and hold them without arrest? Or, wait...is that who’s already there?
You'd think all those Liberal Arts majors would want to save Stone Mountain as much as the rednecks, for the sheer artistry of it. Everything is ridiculous
Say what?
Why not cover these idiots who were aiming weapons at protestors threatening to shoot, too?
Hey ! I see you reported this crap real quick. But not the child that was killed by a black guy? WTF! Fucking two face media!
If you want to be historically accurate, you need to carve Sherman burning Georgia above them. secularagnostic
Georgia is diverse. Showing off both their black supremacists with guns and the white supremacists with guns all within a month. Diversity is our strength.
Trump supporters
But no reporting on the blm militia that marched there a couple weeks ago?
Give white Western European Americans fair representation. You will end a lot of problems overnight
Sharon07716008 Because they held one recently & it got violent. They show up armed, wanting a fight! If they were POC there would have been fatalities.
To all the black, hispanic, asian, non-whites... when you vote Trump, you vote to support the very people who want to rid of you! TrumpIsANationalDisgrace Trump2020 TrumpFailedAmerica BLMprotest
Stone Mountain is a historical work of art and should remain
I don’t care about confederate statues, but I do enjoy that it pisses liberals off. In that case, it should stay.
StoneMountain is a very shallow memorial to an equally shallow defeated racist past. It's a sign that the confederacy remains defeated even in Georgia that the BLM and AntiFa counterprotest rally is bigger than the WhiteSupremacist gang that called it.
Look at that discusting mural!
The white nationalist part is FAKE NEWS.
This is where we are at people. People peacefully protest are a danger and criminals who want to tear something down or destroy it are welcomed. This is why people vote for Trump otherwise law abiding citizens will be shut down forever.
Good. Now sandblast that ugly ass shit off the side of that mountain.
It’s existence is a white nationalist rally.
'Stop honoring racist losers' = sign of the year
They should just get rid of it. There was no use for it in the first place.
THE 'WHITE SUPREMACISTS' & THEIR 'sick' 'WHITE SUPREMACY' dogma ARE FACING THEIR 'EXTINCTION'; TRYING TO TAKE THEIR LAST 'GASPING/GURGLING' EFFORTS AT SPEWING HATE/FEAR/POWER... E X T I N C T I O N of 'white dinosaurs' moves forward!
For the generation that hates participation trophies, they sure love 2nd place.
This could get bloody. IMO: The park should close indefinitely until matters settle down; cool minds have to prevail. stonemountainprotest
“Stop Honoring Racist Losers” is A) my favorite sign of the day B) my new anti-Trump bumper sticker TrumpIsARacist Loser StopHonoringRacistLosers
Russia created these confrontations between Americans in 2016 with simple social media postings.
Thank You Georgia!
