You write in section 3: "APD also wins because public opinion is slowly moving in their favor". Can you cite a source demonstrating this? You only linked to an article about a poll's bunk methodology. There have been multiple polls, including more than one this year. Which demonstrate that 'public opinion' is moving towards APD?
Your analysis completely ignores the factor of direct actions against police and construction companies, which have prevented the facility from being built for over a year. Do you believe they're irrelevant? If so, why, especially when another Week of Action is scheduled for the end of the month? This is also tied to your non-mention of the flatly anti-police, radical left elements, who are critical of not just cop city but liberals within the movement.
In section 7B, you name seven (or more, depending on how you count) local media outlets that covered cop city critically, and only one, AJC, that mostly didn't. (You also got ACPC's name wrong despite mentioning it twice.) How can this be summarized as "Local media doesn’t cover police critically"?
What do you think this means for the health of democracy in Atlanta?
A few things that don't make sense here.
