TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Two days ahead of President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, security was being elevated at state capitols across the county. Planned armed protests are expected, but in Tallahassee, the seven demonstrators who gathered Sunday were the largest group we’ve seen thus far. “I hope that our message of preparedness is ringing loud in the ears of anyone who might want to come to Tallahassee and cause violence,” Dailey said. Federal, state and local law enforcement are staging in and surrounding the capitol complex. Between coronavirus and threats of violence, it is better to put it on another day,” said Mutaqee Akbar, president of NAACP’s Tallahassee branch.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Federal, state and local law enforcement arrived at the state capital in large numbers Sunday morning, and while only a handful of demonstrators were visible, security has been stepped up. “They have been working day and night to prepared,” Dailey said. Greg Gandy was the first demonstrator to arrive in front of the state Capitol building hoping to get his message heard. Law enforcement could be seen making their rounds of the federal building. Businesses were boarding up and the increased security comes days after Daniel Brown of Tallahassee was arrested by federal agents on charges that he threatened to violently confront protesters at the state capitol building on Sunday.
