“gang of between 15 and 40 people roamed the park”
Amish?
Sad. Parks should be safe; the animals should be put down. Wonder what has become of them since they obviously weren’t.
Three of the four "gang members" (that's the nice word for them).
Look at the first dude. Notice the resemblance to Einstein? /s
Too bad no concealed carry was around .... the police were 10-20 minutes away if not on break.
If it was not on Six Flags property, why are they liable?
He was in a coma seven days and suffered severe brain injuries.
Odd. There was a time when Cobb County did not put up with criminal behavior. At least a few of the evil creeps were arrested.
The neighborhood around 6 flags is very rough now, not wise to go there because of that and because you wait in line for everything. I refuse to wait in long lines to give someone my money. Maybe the management will try to clean up the place now but once that element sets in, it is usually fatal to the business in question.
Somebody, kick my a$$ for $35 million.
Situational awareness. Then fight with your back to the wall. I might have a foot print on my forehead and be comatose for 7 days after the fight but them MFers gonna know they was in a fight too.
No problem, because the park can sue the perps!!(/s)
Sounds like it’s going down the Astroworld path.
Nicest amusement park I’ve ever been in was Busch Gardens Williamsburg.
I grew up 15 miles west of the Six Flags Over GA park. When it first opened back in the mid/late sixties, it was $3.95 admission for the day if I recall. It was a fun place to go throughout middle school and high school with friends. The Scream Machine...one of the early big roller coasters. And I think Jim Henson got his Muppet show started there before he became famous with Sesame street and the movies.
Atlanta has become a $hit-h0le country since that time.
I fail to see why the park was at fault.
The son is an athlete. Martial arts from 8-15. After getting a black belt, got into kick boxing. Baseball, basketball, football and swimming then settled on swimming as the sport and was in the Texas state tournament about 5 times. An adult now and trains with free weights and works off energy with a punching bag.
Soon after moving to Atlanta, he was 17 and working in his first job at a Holisters at a mall in the north suburbs. Leaving work, 3 gang guys hanging outside decided to hassle the preppy white guy. They chose poorly. A few moments later, the 3 were immobile on the ground and 5 minutes later the police showed up. Mall security was a no show until the police showed up. Police assumed that my son was the initiator until mall security showed them the surveillance tape for the area.
About 5 years ago my son and his wife were out on the town in a real nice night life area down town. A group of 4 or 5 started following the down the sidewalk then started harassing them. One of the guys grabbed his wife then the son laid him out. That explosion took them out of their game and they dragged their buddy off.
My son, his wife and myself have a CCL now.
