why would i be proud of something like that. that is what is wrong with these post it sites..you don't really get the way people are coming across. i was just reading and surprised at all the people that move here thinking that we are immune to this problem. That is all. Didn't not mean to freak you out, by no means. And that is awesome that your daughter has never decided to pick up any of those things but the truth is ..here in this beautiful town..there is a drug and alcohol problem and it has been here for a long time..that is all i am saying. back when i was coming up here in ptc. there were drugs and lots and lots of alcohol but the drugs that are available to kids today are much worse, ( i know that sounds crazy because no drug is good) but for example, ice and meth..have you seen what they really do to a person? have you watched someone killing themself with that?? I have. could not help in anyway. So, heck naw..i ain't proud, i am sad. but i am not living in a fog either.

you are tight! Why do all the fayeteville people act act like its black people doing bad things when the white kids shoot at the schools?

shoot at the schools, Enigma. There was one child who brought guns to school - and he's just misunderstood.

I lived through this same thing in Clayton County in the early and mid 80's.Apartments and rental housing went up everywhere and so did the crime. Looks like I'll be moving again soon, but this time far enough away to escape...like maybe Montana.

FIRST OF ALL THE DEFINITION OF THE N----- IS AN IGNORANT PERSON. PEOPLE WHO DONT KNOW HOW TO SPELL ARE USUALLY CONSIDERED IGNORANT(IE: DISAPPOINTS IS SPELLED WITH TWO P'S NOT ONE.) OH YEAH BY THE WAY YOU WERE JUST CORRECTED BY A BLACK PERSON, IGNORANT. AND IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY MOST CRIME COMMITED IN FAYETTE COUNTY ARE COMMITTED BY WHITE PEOPLE SO DONT GET IT TWISTED. THE LAST INCIDENT I CAN REMEMBER WAS A WHITE BOY BRINGING GUNS TO SCHOOL. FOR EXAMPLE COLUMBINE...WHITE KIDS!!! DON'T THINK THE BLACK PEOPLE MAKE IT BAD STEP BACK AND LOOK AT WHAT THE WHITE PEOPLE ARE DOING. AND JUST SO YOU DONT THINK IM BEING RACIST, MY MOTHER IS WHITE!

Stop typing in all CAPS!! It makes people want to find you and do horrible things to you!!Please!!

Remind me not to tick you off..You are equiped with a comeback as well as the rest of the dictionary...Geez!

a real person. It is a computer that was left on, has taken control of itself and remains hooked up to the web.

I'm just kidding! I don't get ticked off anymore ..... life is tooo short to get upset about things you have no control over or shouldn't have control over (like other people and their opinions).

I also don't care about what the politics or reigious views of others are since it's THEIR choice. And my views are ever changing and sometimes hypocritical so I keep them to myself .... or try to!

Know what I have learned? When you discuss politics and religion both people try to get the other person to agree with them - know what that's called? An argument - or - an excercise in futility!

That really doesn't leave much to get mad about on blogs. I just try to stir up a little thought from time to time.

Know what else I learned? We all want the same thing - we just don't always agree on how to get/have it.

I leave the heavy thinking to the smart people - like you!

People are set in their ways when it comes to politics and religion.
There is no changing their minds either way so why fight about it..
I just want to love and be loved..Have a great day!

Does SM's use of the "N" word set the precedent for the rest of us to be able to use it? Just need to know what the rules are so we know how to play the game.

Thanks.

That cat pic is hysterical..poor kitty..

You know how apt I am to run head first into brick walls, but even I ain't pullin the pin on this grenade. Time to fall back to a strategic position and wait for suppressing fire.

Hack

I had a friend who used to run head first in to brick walls and he is really, really stupid now.

Just say 'no'! I understand your temptation - once - I ran in to the woods - that's bad too. There are bugs, stickers (not the little funny clown ones), dead things, and no lights in the woods.

Oh, back to the wall. Walls are REALLY hard and weigh a lot!

Don't do it man. We need clear thinking guys who vote for the good guys and who's urine we can borrow for drug tests.

Was that gross? I mean, like I wouldn't watch you 'do it' or anything and it would be sealed and all....

Anyway - I don't know what all that other stuff you said means - but I do know what a brick wall is - don't do it bro!

As little as I sleep you'd think I've been hangin with you; up with the munchies eating my refrigerator empty. Que tal? I don't know how to find anything that is not on the "recent entries" menu. And I know you are like a flashlight in the dark for old guys like me. Did you get my Prius to Camry with a body kit post? this can happen, and quickly. Peace,

Hack

I am just getting this post worked out too - it's a little wierd. I am used to blogging on other sites that are a little better laid out (just my opinion).

They do have a 'more' link on the bottom of the 'recent comments' and 'recent blogs' that expands them out. That might help you.

I am actually a hardware guy - thus the 'MainFrame' reference as some Army dude took exception too (I think the Air Force must be smarter) No offense ArmyMajorDude!

You seem like a really smart guy but I notice you are attracted to the political blogs. Ouch. I hope it's just a hobby and you like to argue!

Say, did you say you had FOOD in your fridge?

I just like to just make sure that people are actually thinking critically and not just spouting a mantra - but I really try to stay away from political and religeous discourse, err, I mean discussion.

So this food, is it, like, pizza and stuff? Anything chocolate?

Anyway, I appreciate the kind words but I seriously think people need more freedom and fewer 'rules'. I also think we should be more thankful that we are alive and stop worring about little things - like everything.

Every person is unique, and I cannot get past how many people want - even demand that others fit in to a 'catagory' so they can analyze them or think they have them all 'summed' up.

Humans seem to have the need to organize, package, and fence everything (in the image of the 'creator' - ouch - religious reference?) but they don't know when to stop.

People are special - all people - we need to be able to laugh at ourselves and laugh at others while we all stumble through this thing called life!

Wow - my brain hurts. I think I'll go to the fridge. Did you say you had cheetos?

MainFrame

You and I may disagree on a lot of things but the "N" word and the "C" word are both offensive and uncalled for. We have enough problems between the races without that kind of crap coming out. Thank you sir for serving your county. I'm just sorry you have such a misconception of how most of us Conservatives view the race issue.

I do like your strategy on this one. I just felt like SM should be called out on the carpet with her obscene verbage.

Respectfully,

The last 3 major crimes were commited by black people(not that it matters crime is wrong no matter what).

We had the armed robber...who hit at least 3 buisnesses, before being executed(rightly so) by cobb county SWAT team.

The last 2 drug busts were black drug dealers, unless the tv stations were using old stories.

The armed robbery by teens at the mobile home park...I can't rememmber if they were white or black.

tyrone teen has a point and if the shoe fits wear it.

ps: Cal is going to have a fit at your language....just because you are black doesn't mean you get a free pass to use that offensive word.

FIRST OF IF I WANT TO WRITE IN CAPS AND SCREAM AT EVERYBODY ON THIS WEB SITE I WILL DO SO. YOU CANT STOP ME. SECOND OF ALL THE WORD IS ONLY OFFENSIVE IF YOU SAY IT IN AN OFFENSIVE WAY. I WAS GIVING THE DEFINITION OF A WORD NOT CALLING ANYBODY BY THE NAME IF YOU TOOK OFFENSE TO IT THATS A PROBLEM THAT YOU GOT WITH YOURSELF. JUST BECAUSE YOU "WARNED AND SENSORED"DOESNT MEAN PEOPLE DIDNT UNDERSTAN WHAT YOU WERE SAYING AND YOU WERE USING IT OFFENSIVELY

YOU MAY HAB DA RITE TO YELL AT US WIT DA CAPS BUT WE BE ALSO HAB DA RIGHT TO NOT WEAD YUR TUPID RANTINGS. PLUS YOUZ SHOULDZ BE ASHAMZED AT YOUZ USE OF THE "N" WORD. YOUZ BE SHAMELESS.

Look, your all caps (except for your name - wth?) make you look seriously angry - like the gold in your mouth is all covered with spit and you are pointing your finger and cussing and what not. Chill dude - your blood pressure is going to go through the roof. The next thing is - you can't be mad at everyone on here because some of the people on here are completely crazy and some are wayyy too sane so at least a few of them are kewl with you and you would be kewl with them - so don't be hatin on someone you would like - you feel me?

Typing in all caps is considered yelling, and extremely difficult to read.

First off- take the caps lock off - then - stop using n----- - White people do all the killin they just want t act like its us. okay Colunbine, all the other schools and whitewter too. all of them has been white. those is facts - so now what?

Just to let all who are confused but the name erin is the correct spelling for a female.

Anyway, get a grip girl. I have known plenty of idiot red necks that don't know gun safety either. You can not blame black people for everything. You don't know the whole story either. His Ole' lady might have been cattin' around on him. Hmmmmmmmmm...Or maybe she was ...................WHITE. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

It is only going to get worse. Tyrone has already oked another Wieland subdivsion. You have the Mayor of Tyrone, Janet Smola, who is on the schoolbord's husband, Mike Smola, and one other town counsil man to thank for that. It was almost a brawl when they voted in the last one.
Things are done in that area with little, or no regard for the people and their children already there.
The Tyrone teen may have put it badly, but there is plenty of anger in that area over the way things have been handled. So sad.

With a name like "Tyrone", what do you expect?

Before we shoo off the tyrone teen for being politically incorrect we might educate him about the improper way he published his thoughts. Had he said what he means in a more proper form he may have began a much needed disscussion.

I think their may be more than a few here who are thinking some of the same thoughts as the teen. We would not have put it so crudely and we shouldn't because it only stirs anger from the other side which never leads to intelligent discussion.

When I was a teenager I was moved from a mostly white school to a mostly black school in an urban area. I remember how shocked I was at the violence and fights. Just as tyrone teen says about his friends, the blacks I'd known before were'nt that way. They had grown up outside the city. Those who grew up in urban areas were the more violent.

After I got to know some of them, when you talk to them one on one and their wall comes down, you learn that they have come to believe being violent is their only protection from being attacked by others. They come to believe they will be devoured if they appear weak. If every else was 'carrying' they thought they should to.

I will tell you tyrone teen that confronting them with racial slurs and anger will do nothing but make things worse. The ones among them who don't want to be the tough guy (or hasn't shot anybody yet) are the only ones who can be saved. Also the ones who have family members strong enough to step in and set them straight or move them out the atmosphere that is making them who they think they should be.

Ask any member of any street gang why he joined that gang and he'll say 'for protection.'

Some smarter than me should study the situation, interview people like tyrone teen and me who grew up in the middle of it, and find the solution. When Bill Clinton moved into Harlem, that would have been the perfect project for him.

Something else we can do without.

You are a little over the edge there dude. You are no different than the street thug that spews his hate. And that is based on whether you're even a real white teen at all. It was nice to hear from you but now the almighty Cal is going to make you disappear. Bye Bye and see you in another life.

Yes, that post should disappear, and soon. And the author should indeed be banned.

Wow.

Does your Mama have any teeth? And should't you go make yourself useful and clean up you daddy's beer cans out of your yard. You might be able to make a couple of bucks to fund your next Meth fix.

You obviously did not grow up in Fayette county.(30 year resident here) Drugs have always been here..Firearms too..plenty 0' people (used) to hunt in these parts. We also used to have shacks around here.

But the drugs.....that has never changed..only added a few new ones.

What's all this moaning about SUBSTANDARD HOUSING in reference to? Substandard compared to what? And where? And by whom? SHACKS? Please tell me where! All I see year after year is bigger and more expensive houses going up and pricing young families still further from the market ... LOW-INCOME HOUSING DOES NOT EXIST IN FAYETTE COUNTY!

RAW SEWAGE ? Expected with no county sewer system ... only septic.
DRUGS? Yeah ... what's new about that? Back in the day they called it MOONSHINE.
FIREARMS? No DUH! How else you gonna hit a 12-point buck from more than 100 yards?

i really like your comment..remember the rocks?? anyone? yeeeeeeeeeehawwwwwwwww...those were the days..no police cruisers could get to us..lol..partypartyparty

oh..wisdom road has low income housing..real nice quiet neighborhood...very upstanding..

...from here to the crime scene.

Well....almost.

I'm just off of Kenwood and New Hope--very close.

No, I don't find it surprising. I am afraid that the area in general is experiencing an influx of people for whom this seems to be appropriate behavior.

I moved here to get away from crap. Now, there is crap everywhere.

Ensure Domestic Tranquility

It appears "Nice1" that you BROUGHT THE CRAP WITH YOU since you admit it was CRAPPY where you were and it's CRAPPY here now. As a 7th generation Fayette Countian who had family here when they forced the Creek Indians out in 1821, I can rightfully say it was much better before ANY of you arrived, with your false notions that somehow you'd discovered paradise and that it somehow would always stay exactly just the same as the first day you arrived. Talk about crap!

I guess it is pay back time huh? What goes around comes around..The indians truly deserve the last laugh. That is so not something to be proud of . Forcing Indians from their home. We are getting what we deserve if this so called paradise, (which has always been a drug and party haven), is going to crap. Maybe it is a curse for what we WHITE folk did to the indians.

for shame.
