Georgia's leaders stress order ahead of planned protests, distinguishing between peaceful assembly and violence.

Another wave of protests is set to take place across Georgia this weekend as part of a national day of action against the Trump administration.

Protesters in Georgia are planning a day of defiance against Trump, with events in Atlanta and other cities nationwide.

Minutes after Atlanta’s “No Kings” protest began, organizers announced that the venue’s 5,000-person capacity had been reached.

Channel 2 Action News has confirmed nearly two dozen protests scheduled across metro Atlanta and north Georgia.

The Georgia ACLU, Indivisible Georgia and Jewish Voice for Peace Atlanta are among the co-sponsors of the local events. On social media, the group’s motto — “No thrones, no crowns, no kings” — has become a rallying cry for activists resisting what they describe as creeping authoritarianism.

Organizers of the planned “No Kings” event in Atlanta say they’ve taken every step to ensure a morning of peaceful demonstration.

As President Donald Trump prepared to host a military parade in Washington to mark the 250th anniversary of the Army and his 79th birthday, thousands of Atlanta residents took to the streets for ‘No Kings’ protests across the Atlanta metro area.

Metro Atlanta journalist Mario Guevara, known for his coverage of immigration raids and advocacy for immigrant communities, was arrested Saturday during a protest in DeKalb County, according to Que Onnda.
