ATLANTA — The Atlanta Police Foundation is paying a $500 bonus to every Atlanta police officer today.

It will add up to more than $2 million in money the foundation has raised. No city funds will be used to pay for the bonuses.

They’ll also be purchasing 20 police cars to replace those that were destroyed in protests a few weeks ago.

The Miami police union pledged $10,000 to the legal defense of the Atlanta cop.

I salute him for what he did but before this high profile case he has had a spotty record. Plus he's being in office over twenty years it's time for some new blood.

He stuck his neck out w/ the felony charge, I believe Atlanta should reward him for doing so.

...you want to donate to a DA?

He's doing the right thing and actually trying to punish a race soldier. We need more DA's who will go after the state sanctioned terrorists, I support Paul Howard.
