I hope Buckhead successfully secedes from the city of Atlanta. It’s a beautiful suberb and very upscale.

Neil Boortz said not long ago he had friends with a home there and a home in Florida. They told Boortz they’re afraid to cross the street at their Buckhead home these days.

Our great cities are crumbling from rampant crime from idiot woke authorities.

Never gonna happen. The state won’t allow it because if Buckhead leaves - taking all of its tax revenue with it - it essentially leaves the city insolvent. Who backstops all those unfunded city pensions? The state.

The northern half of Fulton County tried to escape about a decade ago and the state establishment - legislature & courts - put an end to it for the same unspoken reason. Like everything else, it comes down to money.
