Stop Cop City week of action starts tomorrow!
If you are getting ready for the weekend…Here’s a promo for the week of action against Atlanta’s Cop City project that begins tomorrow and runs through March 11
PSL protests at Pinellas County School Board meeting against “Moms4liberty”/DeSantis agenda
On the 28th of February, the Party for Socialism and Liberation held a protest outside the Pinellas County School Board’s meeting. They were protesting the DeSantis/Moms4Liberty agenda of book banning, budget cuts, “Don’t Say Gay,” the entire school takeover agenda. In Pinellas Countu, if astroturfing so-called “Moms 4 Liberty” manages to elect two more school board members they get a working majority and can effectively turn the Pinellas County schools into Christian religious schools, firing anyone who is unwilling to be part of that agenda.
AIM blocked from Tampa Columbus statue protest in favor of nearby music concert
On the 26th of February, the American Indian Movement planned to protest at the Columbus statue in Tampa, FL to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the 1973 takeover of Wounded Knee. The concert was near but not AT the statue, more likely the settler government of Tampa is simply determined to keep Indigenous people as far away from their precious Columbus statue as possible.
Two of the folks who made it out to the redirected protest at Lykes Gaslight Park in downtown Tampa are facing “criminal” charges for daring to add red paint to the Columbus statue at a previous protest. The red paint symbolizing the blood of all those murdered by Columbus and those who came after him should have been left on the statue until it can be removed. It is likely Tampa’s rulers fear this statue will be pulled down like the Albert Pike statue in DC was, then rolled back into the water from which Columbus came like the Columbus statue in Baltimore was during the 2020 Uprising.
MPD cop whines “I feel threatened” to videographer at heavily defended DC drag show
On the 25th of February Washington DC MPD ofc Riley whined “I feel threatened” at a DC Homos videographer. He melted down like a snowcone in the FL sun while escorting a solo Proud Boy out of the area of a heavily defended drag show in SE DC. Only ONE Proud Boys showed up, sparking this incident.
The Proud Boy in question is known white supremacist Betancur, known to support mass shootings and a supporter of Charlottesville car rammer James Fields, now in prison for the murder of Heather Heyer with that Daesh/ISIS-style car ramming attack.


Tampa music venue Brass Mug postered as Proud Boy-fronted band Trapt plays
On the 24th of February, Trapt played at the brass Mug in Tampa. Trapt’s lead singer is a Proud Boy, and his public pro-Fascist statements have cost the band a drummer (who quit over this shit) and many cancelled shows. While one of the opening acts played, anti-Fascist activists entered the venue parking lot and posted fliers directly on the walls of the brass mug. One by the door called out Trapt as a Nazi band, while other targetted Christopher Rufo, DeSantis’s handpicked New College administrator who job is to turn that college into an extreme-right institution. Once postering the venue and venue parking lot were complete, activists fanned out to distribute the posters elsewhere in Tampa.
Rufo got his start as one of the originators of the far-right hysteria over critical race theory. He is also publicly opposing any and all teaching related to LGBTQ issues. If DeSantis has his way, even teaching evolution in colleges might be banned in FL. If the King James Bible ever becomes the only legal textbook in FL schools and universities Christopher Rufo will be one of the reasons for it. By using posters targetting Christopher Rufo as the main payload of the mission, activists chose to focus not on the little fish (Trapt’s Proud Boy frontman) but rather on a much bigger fish.

Stop Cop City protesters return to Coral Gables (Miami)
On the 21st of February, activists fighting to halt the destruction of Atlanta’s Weelaunee Forest returned to Coral Gables, Miami. This time around was a family-friendly protest to educate the neighbors of a Brasfield & Gorrie office there.
Little Turtle’s War continues!



“Justice” Alito gets another home demo
On Sunday, the 19th of February, Supreme Court “Justice” Alito get yet another protest at his northern VA home. Protesters emphasized that he stands for theocracy and is a threat to the lives of trans folks as well as his infamous authorship of the antiabortion Dobbs ruling
Silver Spring DQSH defenders defeat pushing, shoving Proud Boys
On the 18th of February, Proud Boys failed in an apparent attempt to physically bull their way into Silver Spring, MD Drag Queen Story Hour. For all the fighting outside the show went on inside with zero disruption!
The fighting was tough, the police did almost nothing about their fashy friends the Proud Boys (as expected) and at least one defender was injured. For all of that, this was a defeat for the Proud Boys due to their failure to disrupt the show or drive off patrons. The video the Proud Boys put out showed almost none of the fighting, focussing mostly on their banner drop as the rest was a humiliating defeat for them.
Both GA Senators get Stop Cop City residential protests at their DC homes
On the 18th of February, outraged activists descended on the DC homes of both of Georgia’s Senators demanding action to stop the infamous “Cop City” police training range in Atlanta’s Weelaunee Forest. This is in memory of Turtuguita (“Little Turtle”) who gave their life defending the woods. Since then the National Guard has descended on Atlanta and a firestorm of retribution has been meted out by activists from coast to coast. Even in the DC home demos the chant changed from “shut it down” to “burn it down” and warnings were issued Cop City would never be built and never be defended if it ever is.
The “Every City is Cop City” chant was used again at the marches to and between the targets. At Senator Warnock’s house, a speaker warned that this was indeed the case, and that if not stopped, a great many of the urban warfare/counterinsurgency police training ranges would be built. She also warned “they want war,” and that they would get the war they want but perhaps not the intended outcome.
