They must have used some really good paint back then for it to last all these years. It probably was not water based.

Sick to support such a small percent of the population, with this nonsense.

It's a way for those in power to spit in the eye of the Conservative majority who dislike this sort of BS plus it is a way to undermine the rule of law as per the Communist doctrine that people like the mayor of Atlanta hold so dear.

Hold on, it’s coming...

“Waahhh...why don’t blacks get their own crosswalks?”

“Waahhh...why don’t Hispanics get their own crosswalks?”

“Waahhh...why doesn’t islam get it’s own crosswalks?”

“Waahhh...why don’t women get their own crosswalks?”

et al, al infintium

I increasingly find it difficult to believe what I see happening in my great nation. I'm in my very late 70's and I never thought in my wildest dreams I'm be seeing such things in the USA.
Especially being as I am, a Native Texan. It doesn't get to be more conservative than I am.

God Bless & Keep America!

Outside of the liberal infested cities America is still America.

If Coca-Cola painted crosswalks all red, with their logo, there would be hell to pay.

Idiocracy

I wish I believed that were true. But most Americans today, even in rural Georgia, just shrug their shoulders at what is happening to our country. If their kids get stuck in a transgender bathroom, well, so be it. That’s America today.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that document says that the crosswalks *must* be designed with the traditional white, reflective lines.

Only exceptions are "muted" colors between the lines.

So a brick crosswalk is OK if it is for pedestrian traffic.

But you *cannot* just paint rainbow stripes horizontally, particularly if there is motorized vehicle traffic.

Or did I misunderstand?

Rules do not apply to these people. Kasim Reed (who is term-limited) was even lined up to become Hillary’s Secretary of Transportation, mostly on the strength of a $100 million streetcar to nowhere he built with federal patronage assistance from his friend John Lewis.

Hopefully the mayor will post policemen and women at each rainbow crosswalk to ensure that they are not used by those horrible, homophobic straight people and, yuck, Christians.

(The above is SARCASM)

Our cities are bankrupt - or some nearly so - and the entrenched socialist corruptocrats continue to placate and suck up to most favored minority groups time and again. It cost Portland $100,000 to do this, Ferguson, MO “settled” with Michael Brown ‘s family/lawyer(s) for how many million again (for a totally justifiable self-defense shooting for which the police officer was fully exonerated), oh, please BLM we’ll pay, just don’t riot loot burn and shut down our city again pretty please, now THIS? I mean, what’s the actual threat here? That gangs of homoleftists will act out in the next holiday parade in their city? Interior decorators will go on strike or worse, start decorating with BEIGE? Salmon curtains? White shoes after labor day? Camo pants with plaid - shudder - flannel shirts? Seriously, stop this crap already.

Yes and the muted colors have to be earth-like colors, not bright rainbow colors. Also they can’t have patterns like corporate logos and such.

No doubt. I feel sorry for the good citizens of Atlanta.

So if some hot rod burns rubber across one, is that a hate crime?
