How long until the NAACP wants that sculpture removed?

I came to bump it before the Wlat Brigade shows up.

I've seen Little Sorrel's stuffed remains at the VMI museum under Jackson chapel many times starting from when I was a young boy.

The park is one of the most popular attractions in the United States and the most popular in Georgia.That says a lot in itself. Deo Vindice!

The laser show they do at the park, using the side of the mountain as a "screen", is pretty awesome. Lee Greenwood's "Proud to be an American" used to be always be one of the songs they used in the show (and probably still is, but I haven't gone in 2-3 years). Recommended.
And, Oh, yeah - they used to always end with "Dixie", and show the outline of the three riders (Davis, Lee and Jackson) "riding" away, in motion with the lasers. Really good stuff.
To: Mike Darancette
A simple modification changing one rider to an African American and another to an Asian female is all they're asking.

I have many fond memories of camping out on the lawn watching the laser show. Blankets, boiled peanuts, and of course sweet tea on a cool summer breeze make for a spectacular evening at Stone Mountain. What better way to enjoy the South?!
To: FreedomPoster
BTW: Greenwood was at the Opry the other nite - I saw it on TV. Sang Proud to be an American. He looked great, slim and healthy.
I have a version of Dixie sung by Greenwood - good stuff!

I came to bump it before the Wlat Brigade shows up. Surely the largest memorial to losers anywhere.

Chuckle..Wlat must have missed my repeated statements that he's on my "IGNORE" list.
