Don’t Believe The Lie Of Diversity In Stockbridge, Georgia.
This past Saturday September 24,2016 the City of Stockbridge proved it is not a diverse city as it claims to be. They held their Bridgefest on this day. But they also included Hispanifest and even presented a proclamation to the fact. Many people may remember back in March of this year I asked to be put on the agenda to ask for a proclamation to recognize Confederate Heritage and History Month in April. I was not even aloud my first amendment right to ask for this. The City council is being subdivided by a junior Councilman that I think is a complete ignorant buffoon that has some problems learning the truth. If he knew the truth he would know that the Confederate Army was a diverse force with whites, blacks, chinese and hispanics in the service of the Confederate Government. But the poor thing can’t learn that or he doesn't want to learn it. To be a true diverse city Stockbridge needs to embrace all and that includes Confederate History. I have said it before if Stockbridge can’t recognize all, then they must stop giving out proclamations to all and I mean all. You can not pick and choose the ones you want to celebrate it’s all or none.

9/11 Hijacked Again
9/11 Hijacked Again
For years I have been writing about how Henry County holds a remembrance service on 9/11. The problem is the place they hold it is too dangerous for parents to bring their kids so the kids can learn and respect what happened that day in 2001. The County holds the service at the intersection of Hwy 81 at the Walmart drive just a few yards from the Interstate I-75 ramp. If the County does not know how to hold a proper service then here is some free advice. You have a park called Heritage Park with a Veterans Wall of Honor that has a depiction of the Twin Towers on the wall. This is a great place to hold the 9/11 remembrance services people can bring their children, it is a safe place for them to learn.

Now this year 2016 comes a move by the most moronic City in Henry County. For the first time ever Stockbridge decides to hold a 9/11 service. Where do they decide to hold it, wait for it. At the intersection of Hwy 42 & 138 at the Walmart drive. Has 9/11 become the Walmart service day? Now we all know Stockbridge can’t run the City too well. They have maybe two Council members that know what they are doing, but the rest well let's just say they need a little help, the poor things. So here is some free advice for Stockbridge. You have a park called Memorial Park that would be a lot safer than the middle of a State Hwy intersection. You also have the park next to the conference center that can hold a large crowd.

I looked at photos of both events and hardly anyone showed up. And in Stockbridge more photos were taken than people in attendance. They even had Ch 11 Alive come down to cover the event. All Stockbridge did was to hijack 9/11 for their own gain.
Also there was a prayer service put on by community leaders that evening in McDonough. Reading over the list of things they were going to talk and pray about I noticed that yes they were going to talk about first responders and pray for them because of the tensions going on now with the anti- police movement that is infesting our Nation at this time. Nothing about the people that died that day in 2001 was listed. What has this nation come to when people take such a tragic day and turn it into a publicity stunt. It’s time we get new community leaders that have morals and integrity to do the right thing and not belittle the deaths of 3000 Americans.

It’s Been Fifteen Years Of Darkness
It’s Been Fifteen Years Of Darkness
Sweetheart it’s been fifteen years since my world ended and life became cold,lonely and empty without you as my wife. The day you were killed a large part of me died too and I have not been the same since. I have thought and cried for you every day since that September day. Friends and family have told me I need to move on with my life. But how do you do that when a large part of my life is missing. Your best friend Jill has been talking to me. She told me you would want me to move on and make another lady as happy as I made you. I have been giving it thought but I always think about you and I stumble back into my cold dark hole in my heart. Later this month I will turn 49 years old, you know baby one of my biggest fears was being alone. I have struggled for 15 years of being alone without you in my life. I am writing a book about our 6 years together in hopes that sharing our story with family and close friends will help me heal and give a better understanding of what we meant to each other and the pain I am in and have been in for 15 years. You will always have a large part of my heart till the day I die sweetheart even if I move on with another lady in my life. You made an impact on my life that I will never forget. You gave me hope that I had value in this world by your love for me and my family. You showed me that even someone like me could be loved by a beautiful, smart lady like you. You gave me the strength to do the best I could in all I would do. You had me sitting on top of the world with your beautiful blue eyes looking into mine and saying you loved me with all your heart. I will never ever forget how much you changed my life and what all you did for me. Baby you were my love of a lifetime.
Famine
He sits in a cold lonely corner crying,
His eyes watery and red with no signs of drying.
He remembers times of the past with a gleam in his eye,
Those times were great, he felt so alive to be happy he must try.
He looks around his house at all that could be,
But he also sees the emptiness of it and the cold returns by degree.
He remembers the beautiful love he had,
Death took her in an instant and times he gets mad.
At times he puts up a good fight to keep trying,
But the slightest setback and he is back in the corner crying.
Without his own family, he can’t seem to get a good life to start,
He returns to the cold lonely corner crying suffering from famine of the soul and heart.

As we remember the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 remember we are still in danger from terrorist to this day. We must remember the families that lost loved ones on this day. They are still hurting and will be hurting for the rest of their lives. It’s been 15 years and I see a diminishing of events to honor those that died that day and that died to punish the offenders. I do not understand this at all. We were attacked and our loved ones were murdered on that day. Do you not give a damn about your own friends and family? We must fight to preserve our way of life and if that means closing all borders and immigration into the Country then so be it and if it means kicking out some then so be it too. We need to build up our military to be the biggest baddest beast there is in the world. We must fund the FBI, NSA and CIA so the military knows what to fight and kick ass. It’s time America took a stand and to hell with what the rest of the world thinks about us. Now let’s get to work people we are Americans!!

This Is My Blog
This is my blog
Over the years that I have been blogging I have made people mad at me for voicing my opinion on all kinds of things. I have been called all kinds of names from a fat slob to a racist. Yes it makes me mad when they call me names, but I then think they don’t know me that well so they are the ignorant ones. From my writings about cemeteries, the 9/11 attacks that is very personal to me to politics I have been attacked and called names.
The political writings I do have garnered the most vile names. It seems that our most sacred right the right to vote for who we wish to represent us brings out the animal in people. Just recently I was told by a friend that he had gotten a call he could not trace, telling him to tell me to stop supporting and helping a friend who is running for office in Henry County or I would have a cherry pie at my door step. A cherry pie is street slang for a fire bomb.
Now why would someone go to such extremes to keep me from helping a friend running for a County Office? The other candidates are spending thousands of dollars while my friend has spent very little. It must come down to two things and that is money they can make for self and friends and their agenda.
If you don’t agree or like what I put on my blog. Make a comment and let's have a discussion about it. Don’t ruin your life by committing a Federal crime, that is stupid.
18 U.S. Code § 594 - Intimidation of voters
Whoever intimidates, threatens, coerces, or attempts to intimidate, threaten, or coerce, any other person for the purpose of interfering with the right of such other person to vote or to vote as he may choose, or of causing such other person to vote for, or not to vote for, any candidate for the office of President, Vice President, Presidential elector, Member of the Senate, Member of the House of Representatives, Delegate from the District of Columbia, or Resident Commissioner, at any election held solely or in part for the purpose of electing such candidate, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.
(June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 720; Pub. L. 91–405, title II, § 204(d)(5), Sept. 22, 1970, 84 Stat. 853; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII, § 330016(1)(H), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2147.)
I am an American with God given rights to vote and support who I choose. I served my Nation Six years in Federal Law Enforcement before becoming disabled on the job. Hoping to make a difference in my Community I try to help my friend and now I get threatened because of it. Yes I am damn mad right now and people have been notified of the problem and security is in place. Intimidating voters and the political process is a Federal offense.
I have know Don Henderson for about 8 years. He is a God fearing man that has raised a very fine family. He has sons that are serving our Nation in the military. His wife Penny is a real estate agent and has done a very good job and bringing up her family with Don’s support. Don is a true Conservative in mind, spirit and action. He is a very caring man and will do a great job as Chairman of the Henry County Board of Commissioners. He will look out for your best interest and your tax money. He is a man of his word and I trust Don Henderson to do the right thing for Henry County.
That is why I will write in Don Henderson for Chairman of the Board.
He will make Henry County great again.

The True Figures on the Millage Roll Back
The True Figures on the Millage Roll Back
There has been a lot of talk in the news about the millage roll back in Henry County being the largest since before the economic problems began in 2008. One site even goes as far as to say it is the largest in decades. Well here are the facts. People should get them straight before they talk.
Unincorporated Henry County:
2016--16.447 roll back 3.714 = 12.733 mills
2015--17.653 roll back 3.780 = 13.873 mills
2014--18.388 roll back 4.090 = 14.298 mills
2013--18.707 roll back 4.210 = 14.497 mills
2012--18.520 roll back 4.020 = 14.500 mills
2011--15.160 roll back 3.410 = 11.750 mills
As you can see 2011 is the best out of the six years represented even 2016 wasn't that low.
McDonough millage in 2016 = 10.599 after roll back
and in 2011 = 8.655 after roll back.

and in 2011 = 11.750 after roll back.
Hampton millage in 2016 = 10.875 after roll back
and in 2011 = 10.035 after roll back.
Locust Grove millage in 2016 = 11.216 after roll back
and in 2011 = 9.803 after roll back.
The total county value is interesting to note as well:
2016 value $6,179.670,668 increase of .36%
2015 value $5,654,458,801 increase of 5.86%
2014 value $5,217,433,310 increase of 9.06%

2012 value $4,641,027.111 increase of 8.15%
2011 value $5,331,737,680 decrease of 6.59%
County taxes collected:
2016 = $76,613,999
2015 = $76,340,434
2014 = $72,111,306
2013 = $66,121,019
2012 = $65,168,597

The Big Difference in Chairman Candidates
"The Big Difference in Chairman Candidates"
This year the citizens are going to the polls on November 8th to elect a new Chairman of the Board of Commissioners for Henry County, Georgia. The candidate who can relate to the working class and Christian based public is the write-in candidate Mr. Don Henderson. Mr. Henderson speaks from the heart and is a very devout family man and Christian. He is from the mountains of North Carolina and has lived in Georgia for many years. He as a young man was a singer and made several recordings. He continues from his personal recording studio as a musician and singer. Mr. Henderson went on tour with the USO during the Viet Nam War to bring entertainment to our troops. Mr. Henderson married his wife Penny in 1970. He would go on to a career with Delta Airlines and retire with them. Don and Penny have two sons who serve in our military today. They are members of the Glen Haven Baptist Church. Don is frank with his speaking and can talk in terms anyone can understand. He has studied the financial world and business world since he has been involved with his wife in real estate. He knows how to manage money well. Here are some key points that would lead a person to want to vote for Mr. Henderson:
1. He knows what people need in the county to help strengthen our police and fire departments.
2. Mr. Henderson knows the value of being taught how to keep your money close and when to spend it or not.
3. He knows the value of a good future for our children and has grandchildren he loves dearly that he helps to guide in the best ways to live.
4. Don knows that the county bureacracy has grown out of hand and needs to be reigned in so the citizens won't be burdened with a tax upon a tax.
5. Don knows that unbridled growth will lead to more crime, more infrastructure needs and a down effect on the general area.
6. Don is a man that any citizen can speak with and they can get a fair and honest shake from him.
The establishment of Henry County doesn't want to see him in the race because it interrupts their status quo. When a person votes for a Republican or Democrat in Henry County they are voting for identical ideas that revolve around spending your money. The Council for Quality Growth held a forum for the Republican and Democrat candidates, but did not invite Mr. Henderson. They ignored him and that should tell the citizens of Henry County that they are ignoring them as well. Snubbing their noses at those who work for a living is the wrong attitude to take with the people. Their ignorance to the values that are set forth in the community is sublime. They should never underestimate a person such as Mr. Henderson because he is not running with the so called "in crowd." Take a look at the past chairmans of the county and see what that has gotten the people of the county. They have spent enormous amounts of money in areas where they don't need to spend it. They have woefully let the infrastructure of the county go by the wayside. They knew long ago that the population would increase in the area and that is on the head so past commissioners who spent unwisely. Mr. Henderson is a true conservative who would spend the people's money wisely. The other candidates speak about roads, growth, and public safety all the time making promises that never get done. These are the three talking points that the citizens want to hear about and yet they never truly produce any fruit in the synomous words they use to get elected. The tax and spend mentality of past commissioners has hurt the county in so many ways. Mr. Henderson wants to reign in the spending and build a base of money that the county can have in reserve to help protect it from any future problems because he knows as many do that this economy is fragile and can slip once more.
Here are those who Mr. Henderson is running against in November. The Republican candidate is June Wood. She has gotten the support of many of those who want to tax and spend more on the citizens. She has the support of the in crowd who only want her there so they can keep the status quo. Why would she spend over $47,000 in a runoff with Lisa McGarity? She spent over $10,000 in the April time period for the primary. Now this speaks volumes about the money being influxed into her campaign by the rich developers (many of which don't live in Henry County), by the members of the Chamber of Commerce (where she was the leader at one time), and by those who live in those gated communities and behind their own walls. She is retired as is her husband from Georgia Power Company. She is from Birmingham, Alabama and began her career with the Southern Company at Alabama Power. Why are so many feeding money into her campaign? To keep the status quo and those who tell the chairman what to do and not do. That way they can continue the raping of the land in Henry County to the point that no one will be able to live there safely. She voted for President Obama (who is a Democrat and a liberal) and she admitted it. She speaks of saying that she became a Republican because Mr. Obama didn't have her values, then why did she vote for him? That is poor judgment on her part and that type of thinking can hurt the county as well if she gets the nod from the citizens. She has the same liberal ideas that a Democrat would because she is a seasoned Democrat. She wants to continue to bring more warehouses and other things to the county that the Chamber is backing and they don't have the best interest of the citizens at heart. They are only looking at their pocket books and bank accounts. Why would a true conservative Republican vote for her? Many do it because their buddy is doing it or they want to be part of a clique that wants to be seen and they have to keep up their appearances.
Then, Mr. Henderson is running against the Democrat Carlotta Harrell. Ms. Harrell if elected could face some conflict of interest problems. She sits on the Board of the Henry County Water and Sewer Authority, works with Commissioner Bruce Holmes, and her husband is a deputy sheriff with Henry County. There have been other instances of this in the past with a son of a chairman working for the police department and a son in law working there, but that was not their spouse. Ms. Harrell spent over $10,000 in the primary for Democrat and really didn't have to spend anything. And her contributors are from all across the state and very few from Henry County. That is an interesting note why would all those outside people put money into her campaign? She is nothing but a puppet for Mr. Holmes and the black establishment. The Democrat plan in this years election was to put one of their own in the Republican candidacy thus giving them the opportunity to take the chairmanship from the Republicans. Again, the mob mentality is involved here. She is for wasteful spending and being a part of the problem instead of being an answer to the problem. If people don't think this is the case go over to the Savoy Bar on Hwy 138 on weekends and see who is there plotting and scheming. They are connected to this group out of Clayton County and they have a voice in a certain City of Stockbridge Councilman.
So, to bring in good ideas for the county in the business sense then Mr. Henderson is the right choice. He knows we need to attract some good paying jobs for the county that the Chamber of Commerce and the Development Authority have been woefully lacking to bring here. Some very good chances have been missed because those who back Ms. Wood and Ms. Harrell let go by and many citizens could have benefitted from them coming to the county. Mr. Henderson also knows that the county cannot continue down this path of wasteful spending and not see trouble at the end. He recognizes also that the other commissioners have had a disdain for the current chairman because he sees what the problems are in the county and voices his opinions on the matter. That is why they went behind the citizens backs to try and neuter the job of Chair. It has already cost some of them their jobs and will cost the others as well.
The people Henry County need a strong willed person and strong voice for the county and that would be in Mr. Henderson. He knows how to be tactful and how to speak with authority and with compassion. He knows the tax and spend mentality of the current commission will in the long run hurt this county. Contact Mr. Henderson and speak with him to understand what type of leadership qualities he can bring to the county if elected. The best and right thing to do in November is to Write in Don Henderson for Chairman of the Board of Commissioners. You won't go wrong.

Strange Candidate Forum
Strange Candidate Forum
The Henry County Council for Quality Growth touts being a first for the people group in Henry County. That is a load of hockey. This Wednesday August 10th they are hosting a Commission Chair Candidate Forum and only list Carlotta Harrell and June Wood as the people involved. They shunned Don Henderson who is running against them as a write in candidate. This is flagrant in your face crap that has been the mainstay for years. They always promote sound economic growth, transportation, and public safety as the key platform talking points. These have been promoted as far back as the 1960's and they have been on every talk of every politician ever since. That is why people don't vote in big turnouts because they know they are being lied to. If anyone feels that this is going to change then they need a lobotomy through the anal orafice.
