destruction or any of that. i and i agree that the police had to stop it. and, you know, that makes perfect sense. i guess, you know the one thing i would be curious about, though, is what why is the distinction of people being from out of town so important? i mean, the first amendment certainly applies to the people out of town as well. their contention would be that these are national issues, that the questions around policing, around the environmental issues, the construction of the police training facility, all of these issues are national, and in fact global issues. so i m confused a little bit sometimes when there s so much emphasis placed on people being from out of town, as if that takes away their right to protest. yeah, what do you make of that, juliette? we did hear the police sort of emphasize that point. here s why the police were emphasizing it, and i totally agree with david, these are national issues, you re going to have people from out of state. if
doesn t have ties to the community. and that s why it s of relevance. because it s not people can t come in to plan that to protest, it s why are almost all the arrestees from out of state? that suggests one of two things. and we don t know yet who these people are. an organization that is more radical than the community organization, would yous eye lens, an organization that opposes police or police training facility. or an organization that wants to make the protesters look bad. as we ve seen this in past cases as well. i am just laying out the range of possibilities at this stage, but it is very relevant if all those arrested were from out of state. juliette kayam, david piesner, thank you both. this is cnn breaking news. top of the hour, i m pamela brown, you are in the cnn
quickly by the police, which happened, and i think it is telling that most of these people are not from atlanta. not even from georgia. these organizations, those who want to disrupt peaceful protest often come in to interrupt. so it looks like it s under control now, but the distinction between, oh, going after cop cars or buildings really is not a distinction that is knowable in realtime. you simply don t know how this will escalate. and that is why the police have to deal with it as if it were as if it were just violence, if that s what it is. david, do you know if more protests are planned? i mean, i you know, i follow social media, and i m sure there will be more protests. but you know, to be clear, i m not condoning the property
emphasize that point. here s why the police were emphasizing it, and i totally agree with david, these are national issues, you re going to have people from out of state. if you have a community protest around, say, a community facility, you would assume that most of the members are from the community. they also want to protect their community, they do not want this kind of vandalism as we have seen in the past. it benefits no one who lives near the community or in the community for this kind of violence. i mean, this kind of behavior. so then if your pool of arrested people, the people who are actually instigating, happened to all be from out of state, that s telling you, from a law enforcement purpose, that, in fact, this is not community engagement, this is not a local protest. people are coming in, and those people are 100% of the people arrested. which would suggest then that this is a group that doesn t have ties to the protest,
