      They already dropped the charges against the bail fund organizers, but prosecuting them was never the point. They still scared a bunch of people, and tied up resources in their legal defense.

      Also, I would not be surprised if Georgia was just the testing ground for these tactics.

          For sure, but they’re escalating tactics.

        Can confirm. I should have been involved with Stop Cop City protests – I cared about the site before the police bullshit was even proposed – but I have a family to worry about and the fascist AG has successfully chilled my freedom of speech.
