Not only were the blacked kicked out but they were not allowed in Forsyth County for almost 75 years. Something tells me you are older and witness the county changed from being all whites.

I chuckle at your response on wives and children being PREYED on when it happened to blacks for decades. You continue to prove the double standards thinking of whites. LOL..PREYED like animals. Another segment of society...so you condone the thinking of blacks being different and not equal to white. Wow, Mr. Northwind, you are quite interesting!

Again, you said so little but said so much!
Your answer is short and sweet. Little said but lots taken. I expected more from you. I was actually looking forward to you answering my many questions as I did yours. Double standard?

I really would like the insight of why some whites think they way they do.

Forsyth county is rather diverse these days ethnically. Maybe over 20% minority population? - The Klan was more active in the area probably 20 years ago, and many years earlier, they were active in Stone Mountain. Many people from Atlanta know the history, but for many newcomers this is all sad chapter of Georgian history from the distant past.

Are the Klan in Forsyth now? - don't know - but their influence waned many years ago everywhere.

My advice: visit the area to see what you think.

Well now, when someone kidnaps another human being....beats their head in with a rock....rapes them repeatedly.....then goes and tells his friends to go rape her....and they do it!...yep, I consider that "animalistic" behaviour. You may consider it normal human behaviour....and that's your perogative. We just differ on this issue. That's just us "whites thinking the way we do".....

Did all the blacks in the area do it or just a few? What about the rest of his response? I am quite curious also as to how all the blacks in the county raped this woman and were preying on people? Was it really all or even most of them in the whole county, since that tends to be the white stance and I just want to understand the mentality that white have also as to blame an entire race on the actions of few. Please explain this about the "non amish" segment of society? I really want to know.

During slavery times as well as for the next 100 years until the mid-1960's (Jim Crow Era).

Yeah because white communities never used black people as the scapegoat when a crime was committed, and then forced the accused that they were guilty through the use of or the threat of violence. See the scottsboro boys.

Thanks for the history on the area.

If you knew very little about the area and were looking to move near Atlanta would you recommend Cumming or steer people away and research other suburbs.

Not sure if it matters but we are a white family.
