A liberal political organization that has held protests in East Cobb since last summer against the administration of President Donald Trump is holding another rally Sunday following a fatal shooting this week in Minnesota over immigration.
What’s being called an “ICE Out for Good” protest will take place from 1-2:30 p.m. Sunday at the intersection of Roswell and Johnson Ferry roads.
Indivisible Cobb said in a release Friday that the group is “demanding that ICE cease their unchecked harassment and intimidation and insist on justice for the killing of Renee Good.”
On Thursday, an officer with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency shot and killed Good, 37, in Minneapolis during an ICE operation.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has launched on investigation into the shooting, which prompted immediate protests in Minnesota.
The rally in East Cobb is among others planned nationally. Indivisible Cobb previously held rallies at the Roswell-Johnson Ferry intersection, including two “No Kings” protests against Trump policies.

ICE is attempting to enforce the immigration laws. Some of those that don’t like the ugly of cleaning up liberal Biden’s open border policy, are themselves part of the problem. If Renee Good tried to run you over, what would you do?
Renee Good used her vehicle as a weapon! ICE is attempting to enforce the immigration laws. Many of those that don’t like the ugly of cleaning up liberal Biden’s open border policy, are themselves part of the problem. If Renee Good tried to run you over, what would you do?
To those who are unhappy with the law: if you don’t like the law, then contact your representatives and vote to facilitate change. Protesting in the streets does not change anything.
We don’t need to change the law. We need ICE to abide by the law and standards of common decency.
