Don't you just love gun control? Ga Tech will throw out any student it catches armed, with the premise that the more helpless you are the safer you are. (BTW the college administrators who are responsible for this policy don't live in the area around GA tech) Well the criminal element in Atlanta has finally figured out that unarmed victims make the best kind of victims. Three nights in a row armed robbers have assaulted tech studens.

Some moron who is running for mayor said that "the city won't tolerate this" huh? It seems that they're tolerating it pretty well so far. But lest you think that the police aren't doing anything, every day this week I've seen at least two motorists being ticketed on the expressway in Atlanta on both my morning and afternoon commute. It sure made me feel a lot safer to see the police hard at work shaking down citizens on the expressway, and is doing a lot to help crime at the tech campus. Gun control advocate and mare of Atlanta Shirley Franklin has been strangely quite about this.

Atlanta police chief and obvious example of the benefits of affimative action, Richard ahmma Penning ahmma ton hasn't said anything about it either, although he flaps his big mouth about gun control every chance he gets - went to Washington at the taxpayers' expense to testify in favor of a permanent semi-auto ban.

I have a question for the mayor and the chief. How much do each of you spend of the taxpayers' money on your personal protection details?

Oh and I forgot, how much does anyone want to bet that the license plate on the suv was either stolen, or a piece of cardboard that said either “tag applied for” or “lost tag”

“I don't want to say anything about the police, because they've been kind to me,” Mills says

“Atlanta the city with kind cops”.

I live in a college town. Once the sun goes down, it is unsafe to be out alone anywhere near campus..

"Mills described the suspects as two black men..."

Who would have guessed?

The kid is twice an idiot, running from a guy with a gun to save his cell phone and then blaming the cops because they aren’t everywhere at every minute.

Remember: When seconds count, the Police are just minutes away.

Yup, I guess some folks are content to view themselves as cattle to be herded around my hirelings and slaughtered by predators.

Would love to see Atlanta Mayor’s and police’ reaction if that had been a “predominantly black school” and the perps were white.

i'm not sure why more people do not understand one simple premise:

the police are not there to protect the individual. they are there to protect the society as a whole.

sure, they get lucky sometimes with a crime in progress but for the most part police are there to attempt to take reports, solve crimes and punish the offenders.

when people understand this, they will be able to make themselves less of a victim.

Yeah, they're being pretty kind to armed robbers too, don'tcha think?

"There were cars in the middle of the road, coming at me. I stopped the cars. No one came to help me," says Mills.

A new conservative?
