Cell phone video obtained by the Atlanta Journal Constitution shows police officers holding back people attending a birthday party as white men in trucks with Confederate flags and other flags drive by yelling at them.
This is a childs birthday party! one woman shouts back.
According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, the woman who posted the video on Facebook said that the men were armed and were on her property. She said that they threatened to kill yall n****rs.
I dont mind them riding with their flags but I dont want them going around threaten[ing] people in their yard like they did mine or harassing folks either, the woman explained in her Facebook post.

(43,049 posts)the huge Confederate flag on his truck who got shot in a black neighborhood?
Fucking dumbass stopped for something at a convenience store and a small altercation seems to have started, although the details are sketchy, and he got shot in the face.
His girlfriend says there's not a racist bone in his body.

(111,277 posts)then set fire to his house and shot himself. The smoke woke me up this morning.
I'm willing to bet it was a confederate treason flag. There are no other details on the story so far. I'm also guessing the house was a foreclosure.
There sure is a lot of lunacy happening around that flag.
Also, hold your phone flat, not upright, people. The wide angle shot gives a lot more information.

All those pick-em-up trucks with Dixie Swastika flags, and nobody there had a rocket-propelled grenade.

Douglasville, GA is a VERY racist area.
There's an area in the middle of town this is basically separated by railroad tracks into black and white areas, and the KKK are always RIGHT AT the RR crossings on weekends.
I am disgusted to be from this state, but cannot say I am surprised to see this going on in Douglasville, GA.

(5,141 posts)Fucking chicken-ass shit heads. Theyd shit their collective pants if they walked down 125th Street. Not because its a crime-ridden area but because at the base of all this hatred is fear. They know if it came to bare-knuckled fisticuffs theyd have their asses handed to them. I for one would pay to see that. Not that Im advocating violence you understand. But I would not be the least-bit upset if these people would all just disappear.
Fucking chicken shit.

i echo your sentiment, but the cruel and awful thing is that hate, prejudice and envy is part of the human condition and wed do well to pay attention to our ugly inner voices when they speak to us, and question why we are feeling this way and why we are filled with such loathing. We are none of us above it but we should know it is the dark side of humanity and banish it when it appears.
