Robert 2 months, 3 weeks ago on Clayton County to storm State Capitol

The chamber will be able to offer a limited amount of transportation from Clayton County to the capitol.

Marta's express bus still runs along Tara Blvd into Atlanta.

Robert 2 months, 3 weeks ago on BOC split over audit, financial planner

Well, there goes my hope for this "bored" of commissioners. They are just as inept as the school board. The first simple task and they can't even get on the same page and accomplish hiring someone to do the work for them. What's this about hiring one firm that would be allowed to hire the first firm? !? !?

No legal American citizen, who is in lawful possession, should be arrested for merely being in possession of a firearm regardless of where they may be standing when they are standing inside the United States. (Arguable exception to the District of Columbia)

There is already a law on the books about committing a felony act with the use of a firearm. Ms. Mosley don't you know the laws?

TITLE 16 - CRIMES AND OFFENSES CHAPTER 11 - OFFENSES AGAINST PUBLIC ORDER AND SAFETY ARTICLE 4 - DANGEROUS INSTRUMENTALITIES AND PRACTICES PART 1 - GENERAL PROVISIONS § 16-11-106 - Possession of firearm or knife during commission of or attempt to commit certain crimes More Sharing ServicesShare | O.C.G.A. 16-11-106 (2010) 16-11-106.

Robert 3 months ago on Transportation bill passes House

So they have voted in what the citizens expressly voted against. Oust them all, every single last one of them. Run 'em out on a rail today if it were legal to still tar and feather thieves. That's what they are, thieves and robbers. The tax payers said NO and they run it through legislation anyway. I HAVE BEEN TAXED ENOUGH !

Robert 3 months ago on Secretary of State investigating BOC chairman's residency

This is going to be like Obama's birth certificate, they're going to drag it out to the point that it no longer matters. BUT, This does make it official that now we have the Commissioner under investigation, the Chief of Police under investigation and the Sheriff under investigation and indictment.

Wow, I bet every other county in this state wishes they could have as many honorable and news worthy people working for them. (working for themselves that is).

We should pave the northern third of ClayCo for Hartsfield airport expansion and offer Remington Arms Southlake Mall as their new production plant. It is either Remington or Winchester that's looking for a new firearms friendly state to produce their firearms. Why not ClayCo? It is after all a well known testing ground for firearms.

Robert 3 months ago on BOC delays vote on county’s forensic audit

I would like to see it posted, in full, online along with BOC's budget plans for 2013-14. That would help me believe in their "Transparency of Government" rhetoric.

Robert 3 months, 1 week ago on Atlanta-Savannah rail revived again?

It's magic money. All the government has to do is print some more and then print some more, and some more. It's magic.
