Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot said many of those taking part in violent protests in her city this weekend had come from outside locations, and that these agitators had monitored police radio traffic to know where to stage their protests.
"There clearly was coordination, they were clearly listening to our radio traffic," Lightfoot said."The number of U-Haul trucks that magically showed up in front of stores, car caravans that dropped people off and broke windows and then were hustling the goods out into the backs of the cars—absolutely, it was organized."
Violent protesters took their frustrations out on the CNN Headquarters in Atlanta, by smashing windows and spraying graffiti on the facade and setting fire to the Centennial Olympic Park's welcome center. Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms condemned the rioters."This is not a protest," she said."This is not in the spirit of Martin Luther King Jr. This is chaos. A protest has purpose. When Dr. King was assassinated, we didn't do this to our city. You are disgracing our city. You are disgracing the life of George Floyd and every other person who has been killed in this country.
“Violent protests erupted over the weekend in a number of cities including Los Angeles, New York, Minneapolis, Atlanta, Washington, D.C., and Chicago.” “We may have all come on different ships, but we're in the same boat now.” – MLK
