So, to recap, hundreds of counter protesters showed up to face off with the 12 protesters...

and the police in riot gear were there to keep order of the 12 pro-white rally protesters but turned on the counter protesters instead. The park activities were closed.

I did like this sign:

Free speech activities are occurring around the park today. They are not condoned or sponsored by Stone Mountain Park.

Here's the link to a local news station with more about the White Power protest at Stone Mountain Park. There are a couple of videos in the story but there's also sort of a play by play of events.
