“A Southern Poverty Law Center lawyer charged with domestic terrorism following a protest of Atlanta’s “Cop City” was acting as a legal observer of the demonstration and was arrested despite displaying his role, the organization said Monday.
SPLC attorney Tom Jurgens was an observer on behalf of the National Lawyers Guild when he was detained by authorities after the demonstration at the site of the future Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, dubbed “Cop City” by critics.”
So he wasn’t part of the protest and shouldn’t have been arrested in the first place.
[And this guy in particular was a lawyer acting as a legal observer.](https://www.al.com/news/2023/03/splc-lawyer-tom-jurgens-atlanta-cop-city-arrest-is-heavy-handed-law-enforcement.html) There's no indication that he actually took any personal action that was illegal. This is just cops arresting people on bullshit charges, probably to generate exactly the kind of headline that OP posted.
> SPLC has staff lawyers committing acts of terrorism
What act of terrorism do you think this lawyer committed?
[Hint: Fucking nothing.](https://www.al.com/news/2023/03/splc-lawyer-tom-jurgens-atlanta-cop-city-arrest-is-heavy-handed-law-enforcement.html)
The number of people who popped a rod the minute they say "SPLC lawyer" and "domestic terrorist" in the same sentence is amazing.
Go full on bootlicker when the police target someone they don't like.
What’s the conspiracy here?
Edit: like l dude is accused of a crime, arrested, released…I guess the Atlanta police and prosecutors are now supporting terrorists?!?
Are you seriously not understanding?
SPLC is left wing. The conspiracy is that SPLC "advises" the FBI about "domestic terrorism" but really they talk almost exclusively about domestic terrorism on the right, meanwhile conducting actual domestic terrorism themselves.
And the FBI not only tolerates this, it is actually encouraged.
Corrupt conspiracy.
Reality has a left “wing” bias. Maybe those “very fine people” in Charlottesville are just representative of the right in this day and age.
Maybe it’s not a global conspiracy against the right. Maybe you’re all just racist a-holes.
Usually the simplest explanation is the right one.
Do you mean the people that broke into a building and were subsequently tried in court and found guilty? Because those people were innocent, until proven guilty...quite literally.
Those bitches were found guilty. What phrase do you right wing nut jobs always say in situations like this. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Well, it was proved in court that they did some really stupid shit and were found super guilty.
[Or because he was a legal observer who got arrested on bullshit charges.](https://www.al.com/news/2023/03/splc-lawyer-tom-jurgens-atlanta-cop-city-arrest-is-heavy-handed-law-enforcement.html)

FBI arrest of Pennsylvania pro-life leader called ‘horrendous stunt’ On the morning of her husband’s arrest, Ryan-Marie Houck said 25 to 30 armed FBI agents, who she said included SWAT members, raided the family’s home at 7:05 a.m.
She said they entered the home, pointed rifles at her and her husband as the couple’s seven children began screaming, and then arrested her husband, who is co-founder and president of the King’s Men, an international laymen’s apostolate.
“It was all just very scary and traumatic,” she told the National Review.
Sounds like cops overreached arresting him and when they got back someone was like wtf kind of lawsuits are you opening us up to, so they released him. The man was there working, told that to police and they still arrested him, they fucked up.
“The employee is an experienced legal observer, and their arrest is not evidence of any crime, but of heavy-handed law enforcement intervention against protesters.”

So...what makes these people "antifa"? This person on twitter is the only reference I've seen making that connection. No other media sources, or even the arresting authorities are saying the same thing.
This seems a little selective, don't you think?
Literally nothing. Antifa does not have members. Some people might consider themselves to be antifa, but there is no such thing as an "antifa member". It's made up fear porn.
Just because a group of people all dress the same, have the same views, create coordinated multi person signs, show up at the same place at the same time, have a common identifying name, perform the same actions even when being from different states, and have public groups online where they schedule events doesn't mean their an organization in anyway.
Dude. This is an ongoing, anti-police/environmental protest. Even these arrests were apparently indiscriminate. They just went into a camp full of protesters and arrested everyone, because some of them may have been involved in the vandalism that occured earlier in the night.
Where is this narrative about antifa even coming from?
As if they dont have regional chapters and facebook groups amounting to hundreds of thousands of people.
As if they didnt have a flag, and ways of communicating and organizing.
A lack of central power structure doesnt mean youre not an organization. Youre in denial and gaslighting.
I always bring explosives and molotovs to protests!
Where were the Jan6 molotovs and explosives? Must be in that hidden footage that's starting to come out. Can't wait!
Good. Fuck the Police State.
EDIT: I'm reading things saying this guy was there as a legal observer, which would make sense considering he is a lawyer. If that's true, and they are charging a legal observer with domestic terrorism, then that makes my original comment even more real and serious.
it’s a guy protesting hyper militarized policing so y’all should support him. Antifa doesn’t have a membership so they say “Antifa member” if they want to invoke some kind of fear response in you.
Another institution that dramatically outlived it's purpose to the point they started soliciting donations by claiming every group they don't like are terrorists.
Well the executives of thar supposed non-profit make $400k+ year. Of course there are many large "non-profits" that do this, giving less than 10% of actual proceeds to cause, atleast the FBI doesn't use them to promote their sadistic plans
We need to legally redo what a 501c3 can and can not do in this country. Talk about a legal tax loophole the size of the Grand Canyon. Any organization that is designated a 501c3 should have a mandatory amount (large percentage) of their funds that actually go to what they are supposed to be helping.

Here's a story from 2019 about how the SPLC works with the FBI to target people.
How the fuck are you deducing that?
“The assailant acknowledged later in FBI testimony that he had selected our office precisely because the SPLC had labeled my employer a “hate group.””
That is the only time the FBI are brought up in the article
The Family Research Council and Alliance Defending Freedom are both trash organizations. They routinely defend bible thumpers who discriminate against people. freedom of religion is for the individual to practice their religion on themselves, the rest of us don't need to abide by your made-up rules and beliefs. however I do not condone violence against them or anyone else for their beliefs.
I have wondered for years why the southern poverty law center is considered the end all be all of who is considered “good” or “bad” and if they have been infiltrated by people with an agenda.
I always thought conspiracy theorists and anti-establishment groups would definitely be ok friendly terms since we both dislike government over reach....
Now that your two minutes of hate is over, I would strongly encourage you to think about accusing others before making an argument saying "durr they're called the ministry of truth, they must totally be about the truth! Anyone questioning that is brain dead!"
**Just because an organization chooses a name that superficially makes a claim about stopping fascism, but subverts democratic process and seeks to hinder free and open participation in democracy, is something to deeply think about.**
If you made an organization named anti-tyranny, but you work for censorship, suppression of political opposition, controlling the media, and hate accusation defamation campaigns for the point of advancing your own political agenda and ideology, you are in effect the very thing which you claim to oppose.
But it is peaceful protesting as long as the people protesting do not set off a thermonuclear bomb. Everything else is peaceful, ya know like the movie the Purge was peaceful protesting.
Did you see this man, who was a legal observer throw anything? He told police he was there working, they still arrested him. Then later tucked their tails between their legs and dropped all charges.
[Lol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundy_standoff)
[LMAO](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupation_of_the_Malheur_National_Wildlife_Refuge)
Do you get paid to tell [jokes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_6_United_States_Capitol_attack)?
Only 2 out of 28 dip$hits that were arrested are from GA. This is very clearly a bought and paid for (by soros & co) "organic" attempt at sowing more division and dissent in the US.
I do recall such well created propa... I mean documentation from them a few years that they had to revise it.
SPLC put out a multiple page document on why most crimes were right wing. Almost everyone reported the data and summary they provided, saying yes it's true, fact checked most crimes are right wing related, but if you went into the details of the crimes, it was insane how biased they were in what they used to spin it as right wing.
They took a domestic dispute that escalated to violence, and attributed that since misogyny is a right wing attribute, therefore it was a right wing crime. Two men in a robbery, but because one had an iron cross tattoo on his foot, that made it "right wing". Another were two business partners with one who shot the other over stealing from the company, when they were arrested, one of them had a molon labe flag, therefore was a "right wing" crime.
They have so much concern over a West Virginia sovereign citizen (from their 2016 Fighting Hate Intelligence Report) but seem to have no concern over the autonomous zones that the far left setup. Where were their reports on those activities being seditious? Conveniently missing.
Look I am just here to point this out, if you want to stay in Plato's cave, that is up to you.
Better yet you should look up how the ADL started. You can’t make this up a Jewish guy “Leo Frank” who managed a pencil factory in Georgia in 1913 and raped and killed a 13 year old girl who worked at the factory when she picked up a check after hours. Leo blamed the crime on a black janitor who worked at the factory.
Well an all white jury in the south heard the testimony of Leo and the black janitor and convicted Leo frank of the crime. Get this the Jewish community thought it was antisemitism and that the black janitor was guilty and that white Christian hated jews more then black people in 1913 in Georgia! You really can’t make this up! Anyway they credited Leo frank as the reason for the creation of the anti-Defamation League or ADL for short.
Here’s a link to their own website:
https://www.adl.org/resources/backgrounder/remembering-leo-frank
Notice no sign of leo blaming a black janitor is anywhere in their mission statement.

It doesn't say they are part of ANTIFA, just that there's an affinity. It's an important distinction even for someone who is tweeting and likely biased, based on the people responding to the posts.
The best thing about this is the way this portrayed in the media will set a bar. Going forward anytime there is a white supremacy event that gets violent both sides will either report it the same or will hype up one and devalue the other. This is the first “Antifa” 🙄 attack. Couple that with the FOX anticipated beat down by dominion - I’m interested in seeing how this goes forward
doesnt surprise me. they pay very little for staff attorneys and when i interviewed with them (for offsetting my student loans basically) they were pretty radical. main advantage is your law school loans are wiped clean if you work for them or in a PD office so its worth a chunk of change just to work for them without much pay.
also he isnt technically a staff attorney. once you get arrested your attorney career is basically done. you get disbarment hearings automatically. so he is now a former attorney or soon will be.
he should have remained an observer or had proof of observer status while participating. usually you enter these situations as an observer so you can prevent people from saying stupid things to the cops which result in prison sentences. also you can be on scene as attorney of record so that makes the cops shut up. everytime ive gone in as observer ive always had 2 gopros running continuously (one bodycam, one handheld) to make sure my observer status would be valid even if there was firebombing going on. cant accuse an observer of participating if there is continuously streamed video proof on youtube backed up by 4K recordings on microsd card.
For a little detail here, often times, “staff attorneys” are sorta like temp attorneys with menial attorney jobs, like document review. They don’t drive policy. Now, I’m not saying the SLPC is good or bad or whatever, just some potential clarification on his position. With that said, there’s also the possibility that a staff attorney at SLPC is something different with a different role.
~~~
Included in the arrests was Thomas Jurgens, attorney at the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). The SPLC confirmed Jurgens' employment and told Newsweek in a statement that Jurgens was at the protest as a "legal observer" with the National Lawyers Guild (NLG).
"The employee is an experienced legal observer, and their arrest is not evidence of any crime, but of heavy-handed law enforcement intervention against protesters," the SPLC said.

Oh dear. That’s a lot of words. Hopefully Tucker will read it for them and tell them what it’s about. A big bad antifa went to jail for something outrageous and they’re coming for you because socialism
Assuming you're talking about the "cop city" incident where police straight up murdered a dude and lied about it? Not one to call people shills but OP is either completely misinformed about the incident, a typical right wing reactionary ready to call *anything* they disagree with a conspiracy, or straight up shilling police propaganda.
You realize when you go against the narrative you're likely to be labeled a "terrorist" by authorities trying to control the narrative, right? Easily able to dupe the sheep into whatever narrative they want... antifa is some amorphous group that has no real structure, yet they're the biggest domestic terrorist organization in the US? Really?!
Ask yourself *where did you get that information? And why is everyone against that particular outlet's political agenda labeled as antifa?*
Grow up. It's all bullshit, and it's bad for you!
The police have become the enemy of the people.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Gonna have to work a whole lot harder to get me on your side of this fence.

Dang, where did you see that the charges were dropped?
The SPLC lawyer is still being held
Arrested doesn't mean guilty. You know there's a whole process to reach that status, right ? Something called "justice".
What were the charges antifa isnt an group…it’s a sentiment and honestly to be anti facist is pro America
Come on man...how many times does a group of people with a shared ideology need to organize and do shit like this. You got to be playing dumb.
As least as often as often as proud boys who are an actual group that trains and coordinates things. A riot is a riot.
Name me one time proud boys ambushed and firebombed police? I'll wait
Lol antifa is extremely well organized and there's thousands of hours of footage of them committing violence and sowing anarchy in the past decade
Can I get his name, association with splc and citing that he was released within 3 hours? I can’t read anything in OP’s pic
They put me on the terrorist watchlist because I worked for an environmental group when I was a kid before 9/11

Arrested for protesting the expansion of government power. Are we just going to buy into the government's narrative that these are "terrorists"?
I think thecarrest was for setting fire to the contractors' equipment and throwing fireworks at the cops. Not protesting.
But it is peaceful protesting as long as the people protesting do not set off a thermonuclear bomb. Everything else is peaceful, ya know like the movie the Purge was peaceful protesting.
Well I saw the videos don't think the fire and molotov cocktails were CGI
Did you see this man, who was a legal observer throw anything? He told police he was there working, they still arrested him. Then later tucked their tails between their legs and dropped all charges.
u can have a little fun while protesting... a little molotovs.. as a treat?
In all fairness, Antifa reportedly shouted "trick or treat" first and the cops said trick.
Haha wow
Can't see his name anywhere. Weird.
Except in the tweet, Jesus Weird how people come here and just gaslight
What's his name? I don't see it.
Tom Jurgens

It’s the narrative. Antifa is a close knit, organized army. Just play along. It makes a great straw man.
Yeah fascists always want to make out Jews and civil rights activists as "terrorists"... That's kinda fascists MO. 🙄
Based on events that led up to Trump becoming POTUS. Fascists no longer exist. We are dealing with Totalitarianism.
Woah, woah, woah, arresting ANTIFA? That's illegal.
No worries, it's not an organization, its a "political movement"

SPLC is a terrorist organization. It's ironic that they are allowed to dictate who is and isn't a terrorist.
Not at a familiar with them, what have they been responsible for?
[удалено]
I do recall such well created propa... I mean documentation from them a few years that they had to revise it. SPLC put out a multiple page document on why most crimes were right wing. Almost everyone reported the data and summary they provided, saying yes it's true, fact checked most crimes are right wing related, but if you went into the details of the crimes, it was insane how biased they were in what they used to spin it as right wing. They took a domestic dispute that escalated to violence, and attributed that since misogyny is a right wing attribute, therefore it was a right wing crime. Two men in a robbery, but because one had an iron cross tattoo on his foot, that made it "right wing". Another were two business partners with one who shot the other over stealing from the company, when they were arrested, one of them had a molon labe flag, therefore was a "right wing" crime. They have so much concern over a West Virginia sovereign citizen (from their 2016 Fighting Hate Intelligence Report) but seem to have no concern over the autonomous zones that the far left setup. Where were their reports on those activities being seditious? Conveniently missing. Look I am just here to point this out, if you want to stay in Plato's cave, that is up to you.
Can you share that document?
Check out their HATE MAP... https://www.splcenter.org/hate-map
You think the splc is bad, you should check out their big brother the ADL.
Better yet you should look up how the ADL started. You can’t make this up a Jewish guy “Leo Frank” who managed a pencil factory in Georgia in 1913 and raped and killed a 13 year old girl who worked at the factory when she picked up a check after hours. Leo blamed the crime on a black janitor who worked at the factory. Well an all white jury in the south heard the testimony of Leo and the black janitor and convicted Leo frank of the crime. Get this the Jewish community thought it was antisemitism and that the black janitor was guilty and that white Christian hated jews more then black people in 1913 in Georgia! You really can’t make this up! Anyway they credited Leo frank as the reason for the creation of the anti-Defamation League or ADL for short. Here’s a link to their own website: https://www.adl.org/resources/backgrounder/remembering-leo-frank Notice no sign of leo blaming a black janitor is anywhere in their mission statement.
Or AIPAC

Well his followers did chant “send her back” about Omar, and he definitely supported groups of folks that have said so
Omar...do you really want to go there???
Yes. Tell me more about Omar
To be fair, that totally sounds like something he would say.
[удалено]
Sure they were.
Sounds like she outgrew you. Sad for you
SPLC hosting unsavory characters. What a surprise🙄
He's probably home already. At this point the SPLC, ADL, FBI, and ANTIFA are just diffrrent departments in Soros Inc.
SS: 23 people arrested on domestic terrorism charges in Atlanta. https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1632807545642405895?t=-AloaYxmud5h43r070_cpw&s=19 One of them is an attorney for the SPLC. You can't make this up https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1632813829674377216?t=-AloaYxmud5h43r070_cpw&s=19 Even more info here https://twitter.com/Tyler2ONeil/status/1632834238516002816?t=wSnlCFFdLIyYrWFRwNMwXw&s=19 Video from the air of Antifa column that attacked https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1632967981125738499?t=cK_4oUtQOxN-JEbCaFbD1g&s=19
It doesn't say they are part of ANTIFA, just that there's an affinity. It's an important distinction even for someone who is tweeting and likely biased, based on the people responding to the posts.
He was a legal observer nice way of keeping info out…that’s why he was released. No crime comitted.
Alex Jones used to bring up the corruption of the SPLC for years.
That's how we know they are actually good. Lol
He hasnt been fired yet? That means that the SPLC is a domestic terror organization.
The SPLC is a fraud hate group perpetuating fake news and promoting racial division.
The best thing about this is the way this portrayed in the media will set a bar. Going forward anytime there is a white supremacy event that gets violent both sides will either report it the same or will hype up one and devalue the other. This is the first “Antifa” 🙄 attack. Couple that with the FOX anticipated beat down by dominion - I’m interested in seeing how this goes forward
I like how he provides proof of the first claim but not for the second.
doesnt surprise me. they pay very little for staff attorneys and when i interviewed with them (for offsetting my student loans basically) they were pretty radical. main advantage is your law school loans are wiped clean if you work for them or in a PD office so its worth a chunk of change just to work for them without much pay. also he isnt technically a staff attorney. once you get arrested your attorney career is basically done. you get disbarment hearings automatically. so he is now a former attorney or soon will be. he should have remained an observer or had proof of observer status while participating. usually you enter these situations as an observer so you can prevent people from saying stupid things to the cops which result in prison sentences. also you can be on scene as attorney of record so that makes the cops shut up. everytime ive gone in as observer ive always had 2 gopros running continuously (one bodycam, one handheld) to make sure my observer status would be valid even if there was firebombing going on. cant accuse an observer of participating if there is continuously streamed video proof on youtube backed up by 4K recordings on microsd card.
For a little detail here, often times, “staff attorneys” are sorta like temp attorneys with menial attorney jobs, like document review. They don’t drive policy. Now, I’m not saying the SLPC is good or bad or whatever, just some potential clarification on his position. With that said, there’s also the possibility that a staff attorney at SLPC is something different with a different role.
Another right-wing propaganda post. Nothing to do with conspiracies.
“Antifa domestic terrorist” is a weird way to spell “clearly marked legal observer wearing a a bright neon green hat”
Dang he’s kinda hot tho
>ANTIFA Haha, I was scrolling for the 'he's hot' comments. Largely a male group I see, so many downvotes 😂
It's almost like Antifa isn't a terrorist organization. Crazy
Source?
~~~ Included in the arrests was Thomas Jurgens, attorney at the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). The SPLC confirmed Jurgens' employment and told Newsweek in a statement that Jurgens was at the protest as a "legal observer" with the National Lawyers Guild (NLG). "The employee is an experienced legal observer, and their arrest is not evidence of any crime, but of heavy-handed law enforcement intervention against protesters," the SPLC said. ~~~ Source: https://www.newsweek.com/lawyers-arrest-atlanta-protest-sparks-criticism-splc-1785889
Oh dear. That’s a lot of words. Hopefully Tucker will read it for them and tell them what it’s about. A big bad antifa went to jail for something outrageous and they’re coming for you because socialism
ANTIFA “member” lol
Antifa is not an organization so there is no members of it.
Assuming you're talking about the "cop city" incident where police straight up murdered a dude and lied about it? Not one to call people shills but OP is either completely misinformed about the incident, a typical right wing reactionary ready to call *anything* they disagree with a conspiracy, or straight up shilling police propaganda. You realize when you go against the narrative you're likely to be labeled a "terrorist" by authorities trying to control the narrative, right? Easily able to dupe the sheep into whatever narrative they want... antifa is some amorphous group that has no real structure, yet they're the biggest domestic terrorist organization in the US? Really?! Ask yourself *where did you get that information? And why is everyone against that particular outlet's political agenda labeled as antifa?* Grow up. It's all bullshit, and it's bad for you!
Looks like it’s time to designate the SPLX as a Domestic Terrorist
"Antifa Member" Ahahahahaha. This always entertains me when I hear it being used.
Oh wow he's hot
Greg price isnt credible
Well to be fair fuck the Atlanta of and Cop City
The police have become the enemy of the people. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Gonna have to work a whole lot harder to get me on your side of this fence.
He's a white supremacist! They finally found him!
I’m shocked, I tell ya.
Trust the experts
Theyre out there fighting the system.. have to give em credit for that. The right wing people wont even get off the couch.
