Today, hundreds converged from across the US to confront and shut down the Cop City construction site, bravely facing down riot police who fired off tear-gas. #StopCopCity #BlockCopCity

From a Stop Cop City social media account:

"Police are attempting to fabricate narratives to frame themselves as victims. We don't buy it! Spades to plant trees are not weapons in an "antifa operation" lmfao! APD can't claim that putting on gas masks was an "aggressive action," THEY TEAR GASSED PROTESTORS! Journalists have very clear documentation of police casually tossing grenades in their direction.

APD has always been the aggressors. Organizers have plenty of footage to combat these lies, make sure to share content from this account and other movement profiles."
