One of the deepest photos I've seen this year. Taken yesterday at a Confederate Rally in Stone Mountain. Here, we see police give a white man with his hand on his gun unending patience.
Here is MORE of this story, actually from August 2015: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027043399
And here is more of MY story of living on property in Stone Mountain once owned by the man credited for RESURRECTING the Ku Klux Klan in the Twentieth Century:
James Reagan Venable's family owned Stone Mountain as a granite quarry, and later as a Memorial to the Confederacy. Tennessee Williams named Violet Venable -- the demon in his play, Suddenly Last Summer -- after this Venable Family of Stone Mountain.
Katherine Hepburn as Violet Venable, speaking with Dr. "Sugar", Montgomery Clift
UNC Chapel Hill has a Venable Hall (named for a different Venable, I presume).
There had been TWO moonshine stills in my back yard during Prohibition -- owned by James Venable, who was then the Mayor of Stone Mountain. And then after I FLED to Mexico with Colin Powell's Chief Protocol Officer's help, I returned to get some things stored by Hilda Wells at Wells Cargo Antiques (associated with her Cafe), to discover my old house had been PROPERLY DE-HOMOSEXUALIZED by the God-Hating Christians!!!:
My house in fall 2012
>>> AND SPEAKING OF GETTING DE-HOMOSEXUALIZED, is Wilmington, NC Politician -- the FIRST OUT GAY PERSON to serve as a North Carolina State Senator (Thom Goolsby was never OUT), DELIBERATELY de--homosexualizing herself to run for New Hanover County Commission???

Maybe not yet ready to claim being gay, Julia is CERTAINLY rather HONEST (by appearances, anyway)!!!
Friends,
If you would have told me when I first ran for County Commissioner in 2000, that sixteen years later I would have survived a contentious divorce, a bitter custody battle, an unexpected bankruptcy and a battle with alcoholism, I probably wouldn’t have believed you.
I know what it feels like to struggle. I know what it feels like to be inside a dark tunnel unsure of when you’ll next see light. Every day, my heart breaks, as I watch my friends, family, and greater community suffer from these same struggles: the recession, addiction and social service cuts from Raleigh.
Yet, we are not merely the sum of our struggles, but instead our capacity to overcome them. I am writing you today because being part of this community helped me do just that, and I would like to pay that forward.
For this reason, I am running to be the next County Commissioner for New Hanover County. If elected I will focus on bolstering education spending, bringing in new jobs and creating a better-funded drug court. I want us all to move forward, rather than back.
But as I’ve made clear, I can’t do it without your continued support. None of us can.
Can you give $20.16 today, so that we can make a new start together?http://bit.ly/29w4zNU
Your friend and neighbor,
Julia Boseman
>>> WELL: Julia Boseman does NOT mention her Party (she being a long-time Democrat), and for practical reasons she is likely running as a Democrat, but has NO PRIDE IN PARTY, so I'm gonna go ahead and give the gal $20.15 -- which is 15 cents more than I HAD planned to give Rep. Susi Hamilton, who REFUSES to disavow the other narco-trafficking Democrats in Wilmington!!!
DONE: $20.16 contributed to Julia Boseman!!!
I HOPE it doesn't SINK her campaign!!!
But I OWED Julia (whom I have never met with in person -- only by phone), due to THIS hysterical incident, in which Julia sent me to get a LAWYER whom she KNEW was a corrupted, previous Wilmington City Attorney -- who was SO AFRAID OF ME, he NEVER let me know he couldn't handle my business -- LOL!!!
And just checking Wikipedia, there, it is claimed that Julia is a FORMER Democrat -- Ye-HAW!!!
