Obama wants to bans guns yet it it his adminstration and judges that have prosecute fewer gun charges than any other in recent history. His liberal appointed judges just do not want to be called racist when they start charging minorities with the crimes.
R- the way I see it is the trash program should be bringing the county about 2 million per year. Yes I do not agree with it but is should be a real money maker!
I never agreed with the stadium deal but how much can we afford to write off. Bond issue was for 30 million and then the 20 million we gave to fund this. No one in their right mind would offer more than 10 million for the stadium, we are stuck with it.
The law does require life jackets to be on a boat but it does not require wearing one.
Why should the government regulate having to wear one for adults, it does for children while a boat is underway.
Anyone who boats in the winter and does not wear a type 2 inflatable is asking for trouble no matter how good of a swimmer you are. Hypothermia sets in rather quickly. Cold weather boating also means most people are wearing extra clothing that will help drag them under when wet.
The government should not be in business to help people make the right decisions in life. How many people are killed by crossing a street not in a cross walk? Should the government pay to put fences up on all roads and build a walkway over all roads at the openings?
At some point in life people need to be accountable for their actions.
The question of concern here is why is this only happening in Buford? IS it that they are placing too much emphasis on youth sports and not enough on medical awareness? It would seem that they need to start a very thorough medical evaluation process prior to playing. I do know they push these kids to the limit in their training starting a a young age. Is winning really worth the lives of our youth we need to ask?
I honestly think Buford needs to wake up and get a grip on what is happening in their town and youth sports High School included).
Can we get Wayne Hill back inb office. What when he left we had a 30 million surplus as a cushion.
How is Cobb County doing the raises and budget cuts as their tax base is down as well. Maybe Charlotte should get her Nash over there to see what is up.
Maybe is is all the poor land deals we have paid for the Gwinnett Braves Stadium, the trash lawsuits and the other mismanagment that has taken place.
It sounds like Dana does not trust its sales staff to verify buyers. So now I just find a law enforcement officer that gets his discount to buy the rifle for me and he make a profit and the gun is now into other peoples hands and no trace on the second or third sale.
I should not use the law enforcement officer in the wrong context, Dana sells to anyone that works in the armed guard business. Dunbar, Loomis, Alied , and all those other companies that are known to have bad hires.

Wayne Hill has the business sense that we need in the county. I only wish Mr. Hunter was my district commissioner with this type of insight.
Good call and looking for some great things from Wayne in the future, he is a great asset to the county sewer and wate board..
