The AJC breathlessly reported that BRN supporters recently turned up at a MARTA Board meeting to denounce the board’s decision to cancel the Eastside Beltline streetcar. 

How vast was this protest? A whopping 20 speakers, or 0.0037% of the city’s population, who proceeded to yell at MARTA Board members and accuse them of selling out to Big Oil, a group that I’m sure was just in a panic about a two-mile-long streetcar extension.
