Kemp deals blow to Buckhead suburb trying to secede from Atlanta over violent crime Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp delivered a blow this week to the wealthy suburban Buckhead neighborhood’s effort to secede from the city of Atlanta over violent crime. The issue is tentatively scheduled for a vote before the state legislature Thursday. On Tuesday night, Kemp’s executive counsel David Dove outlined in a two-page memo with at least a dozen questions regarding Senate Bills 113 and 114, which passed in a Senate committee on Monday, marking the first time the secession legislation advanced out of committee in the Georgia General Assembly. Dove demanded the governor’s Senate floor leaders, Bo Hatchett and Mike Hodges, evaluate the proposal, citing "constitutional and statutory challenges" which could "retailor the cloth of governance for Georgia’s municipalities in ways that will ripple into a future of unforeseen outcomes." ("Oh, I wish I was in da land of cotton.") A few suggestions for Buckhead: 1. Raise local sales taxes to increase the size of your local police force. You think the rich residents would have a problem with that? 2. Convince the citizens to ARM themselves and shoot to kill. That cuts out maybe 2/3 of the animals who might think of committing a crime. And nobody will miss the 1/3 who gets killed in self defense. 3. Invite a bunch of illegal aliens from Texas. They are such wonderful, peaceful people that criminals will QUICKLY decided to vacate as soon as they get the news. (Yeah, right.) Edited March 2, 2023 by reason10 Quote
