Atkinson County Flag, Dishonoring American Flag, Military Veterans, and Others..How Sad?
In Atkinson County Georgia a confederate flag flies on courthouse grounds in the City of Pearson on public property as of July 22, 2008. The flagpole on which this (confederate) flag is flown is much taller than the one next to it flying the United States State Flag.
Moreover, it is unbelievable that Georgia State Elected officials would allow this disrespect for our active duty, veterans, retired, and disabled American veterans in 2008. We can only imagine why Georgia State Elected Officials would allow this flag to fly on public property on Atkinson County Court House grounds (Pearson) at tax payer’s expense.
Personally, I do not have a problem with this Ancient African Symbol that was first engraved on stone in Africa before the founding fathers ever set foot in North America. This symbol (confederate flag) that has generated much controversy is the same as those on our dollar bill that was first engraved on stone in Ancient Africa. Although, this history have been buried, beneath the rubbish pile of lies, half truths, and ignorance to promote one created being above another.
However, if America is truly a nation of laws, then no flag should be flown on a flagpole higher than the UNITED STATES FLAG. So why disrespect the flag which many living and deceased military veterans gave every measure of devotion, and service?
As a retired member of the United States Armed Forces our state officials should respect the established traditions of Old Glory for which many veterans took pride in defending. God Bless America, the State of Georgia, and everybody else.

Atkinson County Georgia (STILL), Flying The Confederate Battle Flag, Georgia Legislature, Barack Obama and American Veterans
As of 11:00 AM, January 1st, 2009, just a few days before President Elect Barack Obama, is sworn in, as America's 44th President of the United States of American. When all American citizens, Military Veterans, will come together and take great pride in, and for their long, dedicated, and faithful service to their beloved country.
However, it is sad, that "Atkinson County Georgia Board of Commissioners, Georgia Legislators, TV Stations, Georgia News Paper Editors, along with American Civil Rights Organizations, have given their silent consent approval of the Most Honorable Confederate Flag (NOW), being flown on public property over ATKINSON County Court House Grounds---in 2009, wherein all citizens come, expecting to receive JUSTICE, under the Constitution, of the United States of America!
We the people must ask Georgia Politicians in particular, how many more CITIES, AND COUNTIES in the State of Georgia are Flying this EXTREMELY, and HIGHLY HONORABLE FLAG of the CONFEDERACY?
As a retired military veteran of the Vietnam era, and after retiring at Moody Air Force Base Georgia in January 1991. It is imperative that all American Veterans of good will, and of conscious, ask the members of Georgia's Legislature, WHY are they dishonoring members of our Armed Forces, Military Veterans, our flag, nation, and image around the world, by flying this HIGHLY HONORABLE CONFEDERATE Flag, on public grounds in Atkinson County?
In addition, the flagpole from which this MOST HONORABLE CONFEDERATE FLAG is flown is much higher than both the Georgia State Flag Pole, and the American Flag Pole. How could this be? When all members of our armed forces were trained, that NO flag should be flown, on a flag pole higher, than the one displaying the American Flag.
Are we one nation, or two nations under two different flags in the 21st Century? Moreover, who won the Civil War? And why, are Georgia Legislators, disrespecting members of our armed forces, both living and dead?
Why would Georgia Legislators, Georgia newspaper editors, military veterans, and citizens of the State of Georgia, allow the confederate flag to be flown on public grounds at tax payer’s expense in 2009?
As a retired military veteran, I do not have a problem with this Ancient African Symbol that was first engraved on stone in Africa, before the founding fathers ever set foot on North American Soil. I, even wear a hat, and T-shirt, with these Ancient African Symbols, to show the greatness of my African Heritage, that are engraved in stone, in the mother land of ancient and modern man---until this very day.
Moreover there is many other Ancient African Symbol on the back of United States currency including the dollar bill. Although, this ANCIENT AFRICAN HISTORY, have been HIDDEN, OR BURIED beneath the rubbish pile of lies, half-truths, selfish pride, and ignorance, in order to promote one created being above another. But when truth, comes into the minds of the AMERICAN PEOPLE, and others around the world, who seek truth, then falsehood must vanish, and falsehood is forever a vanishing thing.
So if my beloved country (AMERICA), is truly a nation of laws, then members of Georgia's Legislature, should obey the LAWS of the United States of America, and fly NO FLAG, higher than the American Flag, or remove this part of training from military manuals, of all branches of the Armed Forces.
Many American Veterans gave every measure of devotion, and duty, for our GREAT REPUBLIC. And it is a disgrace, for Georgia Legislators to ignore their service to our beloved nation.
Therefore, it is our sacred duty, and responsibility as American Veterans, to respect the established traditions, and honor Old Glory, for which both living and dead Americans gave their last ounce of breath to protect the spirit and work of the Founding Fathers of our Beloved Republic.
God Bless, The Peach State of Georgia, our beloved Republic and everybody else!

In addition, please Google, Georgia's sick "AT Will Employment Law” Also approved, by Georgia Legislators, who seemingly have sold Georgia Workers, American Military Veterans, and the right of Georgia workers down the drain.
While most Georgia Newspaper Editors, and Publishers, along with Georgia Politicians, give their approval by their silence. HOW SAD?
