Riot Police are attempting to disperse a standoff between Trump supporters and Antifa/Black Lives Matter counter-protesters in front of City Hall in Atlanta, Georgia at the "Rescue America Rally."
Hundreds of Trump supporters gathered outside the CNN headquarters building in Atlanta, Saturday morning, to protest the mainstream media and the radical left. The demonstration later moved to Atlanta City Hall to continue.
Left-wing counter protesters, including Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and assorted left-wing armed militia groups formed a protest line opposite to the crowd of Trump supporters including right-wing militia. Independent journalist Brendan Gutenschwager captured footage of the scene developing outside of Atlanta City Hall.
The rightwing group the Proud Boys made an appearance at the City Hall standoff. Proud Boys chairman Enrique Tarrio was seen being escorted from the leftwing side of the protest by law enforcement.
After several hours, the protest began to disperse and traffic was able to reopen along the roadway in front of City Hall. The Post Millennial reached out to the George State Police for a comment on today's events but has not received response.
