I can't imagine 500 people fighting in the same location - sounds like a movie
when the police respond they are fired upon
a 15 year old with a firearm was shot by police when they return fire

Here I thought the 2nd revolution would be started at a Wal-Mart.

Six Flags is the next best thing. MULLETS UNITE!

Let me guess - it's the Amish again, isn't it?

Well this just will not do. Or not.

Have his so called parents run to every camera they can find to say how horrible it was they shot their little angle who was just getting his life together, dreaming of college and all?

as long as they stay in Georgia
it would be upsetting to hear of such a crowd coming across the Interstate Bridge
the George Floyd riots in Portland had up to 8,000, but they stayed in Portland

500 - 600 brawling on opening day and no pics? How strange.

Looks like those Trump-supporting, conservative NRA members are up to their old tricks again!

Ferals being feral.

I am absolutely shocked that this strategy (below) did not work. SHOCKED I tell you! I would bet money that they forgot to post the, "No Guns Allowed" signs. I'm CERTAIN that had the signs been up this NEVER would have happened!

However, given this mentality, it doesn't surprise me that there are clearly no metal detectors at the park. Anyone want to bet that will be changing immediately?

but a 15 year old was carrying a handgun - how can this happen?
common sense gun laws prohibit a 15 year old from purchasing and carrying such an item
and all the young people in Atlanta obey Liberal gun laws - the same as Kansas City

Six Flags park officials responded saying: "A few years ago we moved from manual bag checks to Evolv, an advanced security screen system that represents hands off screening technology to detect metals or any other unauthorized objects."

There is currently no peer-reviewed research showing that AI gun detection is effective at preventing shootings, and Evolv has offered little evidence supporting claims of its system's effectiveness in meeting these objectives. Schools have also encountered problems with the scanners confusing laptops and other everyday items with guns.
But the documents obtained by Motherboard provide a more detailed look into how Evolv scanners are actually deployed and the problems they actually face. On the ground, the reality of deploying Evolv scanners is very different than marketing materials suggest. Some school administrators are reporting that the scanners have caused "chaos"—failing to detect common handguns at commonly-used sensitivity settings, mistaking everyday school items for deadly weapons, and failing to deliver on the company's promise of frictionless school security.
