"And so it begins. how long until Georgia is the east coast version of Kalifornia?"That process is well underway.
I lived in LA in the 80's and have lived in ATL since '91. Tha parallels between the two in terms of growth, traffic, smog, demographics, etc. are frightening.
I used to love ATL, but I now see many of the things I hated about LA.

My taxes are going way up largely due to the balooning elementary school population.
We need controlled growth so the new folks are paying their fair share.

a state long cast in black and white. One long term benefit is that Latin Americans act as American melting pot agents. Like oil and water, blacks and whites in Georgia don't marry often however Latin Americans marry both. The blending over time, say 200 years, will greatly reduce segregation and social stratification.

It's probably not going to happen like that, because the whites in GA are so different from the ones in CA. A very large proportion of CA's problems come from the fact that the white populace is also pretty liberal and dumb. It's like CA and TX. There's similarites and there's big differences.
For instance, about 70% of Georgia's whites seem to be conservative in their voting habits, but only 45 or 50% of Californian whites seem to be that way.

This seems to be mostly happening in and around Atlanta. And there are three major difference in you comparison.
First, we threw out a good chunk of our lunatics in the State government in our last election.
Second, we have guns.
Third, we are not afraid to use them.
