The Double Standard

 "The Double Standard"
It looks like Henry County, GA has a huge problem with how they are treating one section of society in their county.  Just a few weeks ago the Board of Commissioners did not allow the SCV group to have black powder gunfire or cannon fire for the re-enactment at Nash Farm.  This has been allowed until the change in leadership in the county to a not so diverse group of people.   On Monday, April 29th there will be some filming done in Stockbridge for an HBO series.  There will be simulated gunfire in the filming and the people doing the filming let them know that everything will be fine and that it is not real.  But still, it is gunfire that would have been the same case at Nash Farm.  Those who are in the SCV should think about seriously suing the county over this issue.  This is nothing but pure reverse discrimination and a right in your face attitude about it.   If one group cannot use simulated gunfire then the no one else should be able to do it.

The People Now See That Racism is Ruling The BoC About Nash Farm

 "The People Now See That Racism is Ruling The BoC About Nash Farm"
At the March 19, 2019, Henry BoC Meeting, the commissioners heard from Parks and Recreation Director Tim Coley about the upcoming Southern Jubilee Festival and Civil War Re-enactment that goes along with it.  According to the ordinances of Henry County they have to come to the BoC to ask if they can use black powder for the guns and cannons that will be used in the re-enactment.  The board voted 3 to 3 which caused the question to fail clearly along racial lines.  You can't have a re-enactment without the guns.  There would be no bullets or cannonballs in the guns just black powder.  What do they want them to do, use cap guns?  During the public comments, those who have permission to have the event from Henry County were clearly upset with the commissioners.  These people are members of the Sons of Confederate Veterans.  They are likely to file suit against Henry County for establishing this precedent because there is nothing in the agreement about having to go to the BoC for permission.  Also, the BoC in former years has allowed this event to take place without incident.  Now since there is a voting block on the commission they want to use their racist mind to obstruct an event that would bring money to Henry County.  Now it is likely to cost Henry County.  Even the county attorney alluded to this point.  The people in the audience could clearly see that there was some contempt by the board members with one another.  The commissioner for the district who likes to be called the "smoking hot boss" is nothing more than a racist who wants Nash Farm to go away.  She already got rid of the Civil War museum there and brought in some of her friends there for a farmers market at a better price.  The 5th district commissioner said he couldn't support a group who has ties to Nathan Bedford Forrest.  Now that is a big statement from a little-minded man who must think General Forrest is still living. (That could be from his being hit in the head playing football which he filed suit with the NFL about.)  If this is the case we cannot support him or his other colleagues who vote with him because of Malcolm X.  They cannot make the past go away and they cannot make the white race go away either.  All they are succeeding in doing is awakening a very large sleeping giant.  This type of political problem will only cause the sore that is festering in Henry County to grow and one day bust.

Stockbridge Still Dysfunctional

Stockbridge Still Dysfunctional

This past Saturday, May 12, 2018,  Stockbridge yet again demonstrated just how dysfunctional and bias they truly are in the large scheme of things. They held a cemetery clean-up day at Memorial Cemetery. They have done this for the past few years at the same cemetery. Yet there are 13 cemeteries in the City limits and four just outside that could be included. But Stockbridge has consistently left all of them out of the picture and just keep up Memorial Cemetery. All of those buried there are black and were good citizens of the city. But the 13 other cemeteries are a mix of black and white. They all also were good citizens of the city. I have said this before to the city that companies look at how you take care of the cemeteries before they decide to locate to your city or town. Stockbridge has had a lot of bad press over the years and some are calling for the charter to be pulled. 

The bad press got going good just a few years ago when a person was elected to the Council that claims  Atlanta South on everything he speaks like a two dollar whore having a 2 for 1 special. He has cost the city money with lawsuits on top of lawsuits. Just recently he admitted to being the one that lead the charge that would not even let me ask to speak to the Council about Confederate History Month. Yes, he violated my First Amendment right to free speech that he himself claims. I am not the only one he has wronged. He has done more to the point he is in court because of his inept actions as a human. A friend asked me one time what I thought about Mr. Atlanta South. I looked at them and said he would make a great poster child for the use of condoms. But all's not lost with the upcoming vote about the Eagles Landing becoming a City. If the voters pass it he would be out of a job on the Council because he would be in the new City. And I don’t think the new City would elect him to the Council they have seen how he has drug down Stockbridge. I laugh about that all the time how’s that for karma Mr. Atlanta South LOL!!!

I hope the City of Stockbridge will be better but only time will tell. Here is a list of the cemeteries in the City and the others that are so close. Let’s let the City know we are watching them by contacting them and asking why they are not cleaning up the other cemeteries. If they still don’t do what’s right well I guess karma will take over like it did for Atlanta South LOL.

Confederate History Month 2018

To those of us who remember our ancestors in April of each year that fought in the War Between the States from Georgia, we take pride in the many of them who died in that war for their country, which at that time was the Confederate States of America.  After the war ended, and the states rejoined the Union and the United States became whole once more the northern states and southern states went through a transition period known as Reconstruction.  After all, that was said and done by the time President McKinley was in office he extended a hand to those who had fought in that war from the south and began a true healing process.  The southern veterans were granted pensions that were paid by the United States Government.  The US government continued over the years to make it so that graves could be marked with military markers for the southern veterans.  This has been handled through the Veterans Administration Office.  Then, by the 1950's Congress recognized the veterans of the south as being veterans of America just as the Union veterans.   Many presidents since McKinley have paid homage to the veterans who fought for the Confederacy.  That is why many places still remember April as Confederate History Month and as Confederate Memorial Day.  Georgia stopped recognizing it as a holiday because of the shooting at the African-American Church in Charleston, S.C. by a demented young man with hate in his heart.  Georgia rode the tide of hate against everything confederate across the south and were politically correct to appease those who hate anything Confederate.  But to those who still care about their ancestors, they still recognize them today.  Many are recognized on the traditional Memorial Day in May just as all other American troops are recognized that died in service to their nation.  People need to start leaving hate aside and study the true history of those who fought in that war against one another who were friends before the war and were friends afterward.  Especially, the leaders from both sides. The people of today might learn a great lesson from them as they extended hands of friendship to one another.

Liberalism in Hampton, GA

 "Liberalism in Hampton, GA"

Henry County has once again made national news twice in one week.  Another embarrassing saga to the county in a long line of embarrassments in the past few years.  This time it began with a teacher at Hampton Middle School getting their students to write a letter to the Congress and supporting gun control.  Here we have a teacher putting their own political view into the school subject they are supposed to be teaching and using the students to promote their agenda.  We have learned the letters did not go to Washington.  But the teacher is still teaching at the school.  Why?  Then, we have another teacher who has had a rant in her class about make President Trump wanting to make America great again is taking us back to segregation.  This woman was recorded ranting on and on with her own racist remarks towards the white children in the class.  Again she is still teaching at the school.  Why?   If a white history teacher spoke about the Confederacy being a good government and good thing for the south he would be put on leave and then fired because the liberal faction in the county would rise up and say that is racist.  All this is occurring once again in District 2 of Henry County.  The same district where the commissioner made sure the Civil War Museum would be gone from Nash Farm.  She had her own agenda there by making sure her liberal friend has the "farmers market" or flea market there.    Some of this happening at the Hampton Middle School is also likely linked to the progressive liberals who have been elected to that city's council.  This looks and has the earmarks of a coordinated attack upon the people of the 2nd district of Henry County.  It is time for the parents to go to the Board of Education of Henry County and ask for the removal of those teachers involved in this activity at the school.  This is going to cause more racial division in the area because the teachers who are promoting this agenda know that by feeding the mind of the young will hopefully inflame them to want to be radical and liberal in their views towards society.

Citizen Allowed To Change Our Flag At The BOC

There is a video floating on you tube of the US flag with the fringe being removed from the Henry County Board of Commission Chamber by a person who comes up meeting after meeting to attack the  BoC.  Then, to make things worse he has the person who is wanting to have the monument removed from the McDonough Square helping him.  Also, in the video the person says they will be taking the eagle down as well.  According to the rules of the US about flags, you can have the fringe on a flag for special purposes.  There is no law prescribed by Congress that says you do not put gold fringe on a flag.  Then, here also is the information about the eagle on a flag pole. "According to the USA Flag Site commentator, eagles should not be used to top outside flag poles since the wind may wrap the flag around the eagle and tear the flag. The gold or silver ball on top of the pole is preferred for outside flag poles. Indoors, an eagle is allowed. While there is no official statement about the direction the eagle should face on the flag pole, many believe that the eagle should face as if it were flying toward Washington, D.C. In times of war the eagle is sometimes turned to face the direction of our troops on foreign soil. The eagle on the pole that is with the deployed troops faces back home, in the direction of the United States. The eagle on top of the flag pole should be gold or silver in color."  So, we can understand why that young person who is unpatriotic and leans toward the communist way of life it looks like the older gentleman who made the video is unpatriotic as well.  Those who love this nation are seeing red at this time when they watch this video.  And what is truly sad is that the Henry County BoC let them do it.

We Are Headed For Dangerous Times In Henry County Georgia

I was at the Henry County Board of Commissioners meeting on June 6, 2017, when everyone was up in arms about the flag being removed at Nash Farm and the subsequent closing of the Civil War Museum at the park.  There was a woman from the NAACP who was

there saying she would rather see the Black Nationalist flag being flown there.  She would rather see it over the United States flag.  This is nothing but communism.  That group has had those leanings since it's inception.  This Black Nationalist flag is followed by the Nation of Islam led by Louis Farrakhan a devoted hater of the United States and what it stands for.  These people are pushing for the takeover of Henry County by Muslim Clerics and Sharia Law.  This is not American, but many of these pushing this idea are un-American anyway.  I find it very distasteful and offensive to see this flag in our nation.  Remember the man who was picked by the 2nd district commissioner to be on the parks and recreation board is an advocate of Ramadan which is the month-long Muslim holiday.  Do you want Henry County to become a Muslim haven like has happened in Europe?  Look how wonderful that is working out with terror attacks and murders daily.   You get what you vote for in these backward counties that have been turned upside down by a shift in ways of thinking and by those who want to be something and are nothing more than street thugs.  There should be a sign at the Clayton County line that reads Welcome to Henry County the Land that Allah is building.

NAACP Offends American Veteran At Nash Farm

I was at the Nash Farm rally against the Confederate Flag on June 3rd presented by the Henry County NAACP.  Being a member of the Clayton County Branch, I went in support of keeping the Confederate Flag down and out of sight.  But something happened while I was there that seriously damaged my viewpoint.  I served the United States in the Navy during Desert Storm.  I am proud of and will always defend the flag of the United States.  But I heard one of the key members of the Henry County Branch stand up there at the podium and say that she would rather see the "national flag" flying over the park.  The flag she referenced is the African American freedom flag that is used by the Nation of Islam.  This bothered me much.  I will be damned if I will follow under the national flag that honors terrorists.  I have rescinded my membership in the NAACP of Clayton County and do not want to be affiliated with any branch of that organization since the true idea is coming out.  True Americans should stand against what is really happening here in this matter.  People are being brainwashed daily about the Confederacy and their flag.  This is nothing more than "hate."  And they are supposed to be against hate.  What do they think the followers of Islam did to this nation on 9/11 and have continued to do since then around the world including the recent terror attacks in London.  Don't stand there blindly following what these people are doing.  It is a shame and disgrace to now realize that the NAACP was once a good thing but now has morphed into a cult of racial divisiveness that is fed on hate.  And wanting the flag that is followed by the nation of Islam is surely nothing less than hate.

Nash Farm Park Creating

At the June 6th meeting of the Henry County Board of Commissioners it was mentioned about the military museum that was to go in at Nash Farm Park.  It was a normal military museum dedicated to the more modern wars.  Also, mention was made about the Nash Farm master plan.  Below is some information about both.

            Tim Coley, Director of Parks and Recreation presented the agenda item to the Board.  Henry County through the Parks and Recreation Department is creating a military museum to be located at Nash Farm Park. Military groups such as the Vietnam Veteran’s Association and the Marine Corps Guard have worked diligently to acquire uniforms and other military related items from World War I to present to be donated to the museum.  Upon completion the military museum will be open to the public for tours and further serve as a valuable educational tool for school related field trips.  In order to facilitate this in a timely manner the request is for authorization to transfer approximately $42,000.00 from Capital Projects Funds to Nash Farm to finish the Nash Farm House which is the house that will locate the museum.

            Mr. Coley recognized Mr. Bob Van Dunk .  Mr. Van Dunk orchestrated where the Marine Corp Guard, the VFW and other veteran’s groups have consolidated to be known as the Henry County Veterans Association.  They have donated funds, time and efforts to make the museum possible.

Authorization to submit a Recreational Trails Grant Application to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources

            Mike Bush, Finance Director presented the agenda item to the Board.  Henry County has the opportunity to apply for a Recreational Trails Program Grant through the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.  The grant amount is $100,000 and the matching funds would be $30,000 of which $25,410 is in-kind and $4,590 is cash match.  The grant is for the development of recreational trails and maintenance of existing substandard trails at Nash Farm Park.  Recreational trails at Nash Farm Park are delineated in the Master Plan prepared for this site. 

            Commissioner Jeffares asked which department would provide the in-kind match.  Mr. Bush stated it would be several different departments. 

            Commissioner Bowman stated within the package it states volunteer labor, would all the labor from the different departments be volunteer.  Mr. Bush stated no, the volunteer portion would be for example the Friends of Nash Farm, people who would go on their own time under the county’s supervision.

            Commissioner Bowman asked how the Personnel Department would volunteer $1,250.  Mr. Bush stated he believed that was for creating the grant itself.  Commissioner Bowman asked how staff came up with the $2,500 for public works.  Mr. Bush stated he did not have that information. 

            Commissioner Bowman asked if this grant was for one year.  Mr. Bush stated the grant is for construction of the trails and the county would maintain the trails.  Commissioner Bowman asked what the projected maintenance cost on the trails is.  Mr. Bush stated he did not have that information. 

            Commissioner Holder stated he continues to receive calls regarding the sign at Nash Farm.  There was a resolution to change the name of the park to Nash Farm Park.  Commissioner Holder asked when will the sign currently at the park that says Nash Farm Battlefield be changed.  Chairman Mathis stated that in the resolution it states that activities related to the Battlefield would continue to be referred to as Nash Farm Battlefield and those activities related to recreation would be Nash Farm Park.  Commissioner Holder stated the sign still reads Nash Farm Battlefield.  Chairman Mathis stated the sign cost $4,000 and is located next to the historical marker.  The idea was to place the new sign at the Babbs Mill Road entrance to the park.  Commissioner Basler asked if there was a way to move the sign to the battlefield area. If the sign needs to remain near the marker then it needs to be addressed and maybe the resolution needs to be readdressed. 

            Commissioner Jeffares stated this is an application for the grant and it will not be awarded until next year.  Commissioner Jeffares asked if awarded the grant are we obligated to accept the grant.  Mr. Bush stated that was correct the grant will not be awarded until the summer or fall of next year and the grant is for a maximum of $100,000 it could be less if deemed necessary. 

Commissioner Jeffares made the motion to approve; Commissioner Holder seconded.  The motion carried 4-1-0 with Commissioners Jeffares, Basler, Stamey and Holder in favor and Commissioner Bowman opposed.  The following resolution was approved:

            WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners is the custodian of the county treasury and of county facilities in Henry County; and

            WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners has sponsored preparation of a Master Plan for Nash Farm Park; and

            WHEREAS, this Master Plan incorporates recreational trails to link historical, cultural, and natural resources together along with greenspace; and

            WHEREAS, the need for recreational trails is also referenced in the adopted Henry County Joint Comprehensive Plan; and

            WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners is aware of an opportunity to apply for Recreational Trail Grant Funds in the amount of $100,000 to facilitate realization of recreational trails consistent with the aforementioned Master Plan and Joint Comprehensive Plan; and

            WHEREAS, the Board of Commissioners desires to formally authorize the filing of said application in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Recreational Trails Grant Program.

            NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF HENRY COUNTY that the Board hereby authorizes the filing of an application for grant assistance with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources relative to the Recreational Trails Grant Program.  The amount of the grant application is $100,000 and the total project cost (including local match) is $130,000.  Local match for this grant shall include cash match of $4,590 and in-kind match of $25,410; cash match funds are available in the Grant Match Account.

            BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Chairman is hereby formally authorized to execute and transit the aforementioned application to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources immediately upon adoption of this Resolution.

S. was at the Nash Farm in Hampton on June 3rd with the NAACP protesting the CSA flag and the people who provided the museum for the farm to represent the Battle of Lovejoy.  This person who knows so little about history and only follows along to create trouble stood there with another man and defiled a historical monument to the Civil War dead of the Battle of Lovejoy.  Listed on that marker are the names of some of the Union and Confederate soldiers who died in the area.  This was a wanton disgrace and defaming of all that is decent.  He is the kind who would destroy headstones in a cemetery for his own push for an agenda.  One of his friends spoke there about the flag that should be flying over the park the U.S. flag, but she would prefer the nationalist flag which is one flown by the nation of Islam.  They both stood there holding the only flag that ever flew over a slave ship other than the British and Spanish flags.  Yes, they know about as much about history as to fill a thimble.  They are showing ignorance at a rate that hasn't happened in many years.  There was such a huge crowd there less than twenty showed up.  There was a much larger police presence than there were people there to put down the hallowed people who died for what they believed.  This was a typical socialist event.  There is no telling how many crimes were being committed in the county where those police were needed.  And it boils down to one thing.  They don't want white anything.  They want to support a muslim philosophy that will bring in more and more till one day it will be Ramadan Park.  And you can thank people like those commissioners and city council members who have taken over to run amok in the political world and have no idea what they are doing.  There was an old saying years ago that Atlanta shared and now Henry County is on the threshhold of sharing, "you wanted it, now you have it, what are you going to do with it."

Commissioner Wants A Planted Room For Her Hate Beliefs!!!

The next Henry County BoC meeting on June 6th at 9:00AM is going to be lively.  According to Ms. Clemmons who went on a black talk radio to get people to show up at the meeting to support her and her actions whether you live in the county or not.  She is trying to stack the room with her racist viewpoint followers.  She started all this when she sent workers out to Nash Farm a while back and had them take down the 2nd National Flag of the Confederacy.  Then, she went to an event at the Civil War Museum and told them to remove the flags from inside and to stop selling them.  This made the owner of the relics on loan there remove them thus closing the museum.  Her friend who sells meats to those who support Ramadan which is the holy month of the Muslims has been vocal in all this.  He has his farmers market there and lives about 1/2 mile from the farm.  This is something that has been on the radar of the commission since March when she notified the commission of her intentions.  She calls herself the smokinghotboss which in itself is disgusting.   She wants nothing, but black history to be told anywhere.  And so does her friends on the BoC and in McDonough Council and Stockbridge.  This type of problem started by her and then she wants to play the victim.  This is the ploy advanced for any communist group of which most progressive Democrats belong.  Remember if they get away with this then the people of Henry County are doomed to be trampled upon by these puppeteers of the race baiting alliance from Atlanta and beyond.

Henry County Under Attack?

Henry County Under Attack?

Henry County is poised for a possible takeover.  A video that will be linked below will show that the Nash Farm Museum closure has been planned for quite some time.  The second district commissioner who made the video calls herself a community entrepreneur who can fix the community problems.  The biggest problem she sees in the community is childhood obesity.  If she is going to try and fix this problem she must first realize that a lot of people consider the word obesity as a slander against people who are overweight just as she feels the “N word” is to her.  The largest problems we have in the county are crime, low paying jobs and a decaying infrastructure.  

She claims she wants to turn Nash Farm Park into a farm to teach children how to eat properly and what it is like to raise animals for food.  This has all the markings of Michelle Obama and her ideas on how to feed our children and that program was taken out because of the poor nutritional value of the food.  She mentions the Civil War Museum, but the way she talked about it the facility would still be there.  But yet as we know now she wants the museum closed because she herself is racist against the Confederate Heritage.  Yet in this video she says she wants everyone to be included and uses the word diversity.  Well, diversity means those people with Confederate Heritage must be included.  

We have learned that the second district representative for the recreation department is a friend of hers.  This individual runs a farm less than a mile from Nash Farm Park and could be expanded across the wetland property from his farm to the Nash Farm.  This shows collusion to rape the citizens of Henry County of their money and land for benefit of an individual that has indicated they provide hala meat for the Muslim holidays such as Ramadan.  If you are a true American and remember what happened on September 11, 2001 we must be very careful in dealing with certain people of that religion.  This I believe would be a matter of National Security and the citizens as well as the government must keep an eye on this very situation.  To protect our way of life we must come together for the common good of Henry County and her citizens or we face a takeover that would include drastic changes to the way we live, raise our children, and look to a future that is sustainable. Because if we allow this to continue we face extinction.  This is the same communist idea that the Russians had in the early 1960’s to take us without firing a shot.  And when all is said and done, we feel that right will be the deliverer of the best for our community.

There is a problem in District 2 of Henry County

There is a problem in District 2 of Henry County.

  The person appointed to the parks and rec dept for that district is attached to the commissioner for that district.  They have an interest in the parkland.  Also, they sell meats to the Muslim community for Ramadan and other Muslim holidays.  They are also connected to another Muslim producer out of  South Fulton County.  I would not say that all Muslims are bad, but never forget what happened on September 11, 2001.  This should remain in the back of everyone's mind.  It was predicted that when a black took over that district that the Nash Farm would come under attack for the Confederate Museum and the flags.  They cannot stand real history and will promote their own agenda as attested to by her comment that she will reopen the museum to be more inclusive.  She will make a mockery to those who died at the Battle for Lovejoy Station.  Recall her, and or vote her out of office for doing something that was against her duties as a commissioner.  She is not supposed to act on something she is to have the county manager to do so.  Overstepping her authority to appease her friends.  Sounds like another racial coup.
