I was looking through here after doing a search on the Klan and Cummins, GA. I read a post in regards to why the Blacks were ran out of this area. If we are honest, we know that in the South, past and sadly in the present, hateful ignorant people will justify their actions by any means. The story of the young lady being raped, by anyone, is horrible, but to attack an entire group of people based on the actions of a few is ludicrous. So does that justify the hateful, horrible people that spew hatred and misleading information in order to make it okay to mistreat people? Yet, these people get up on Sunday morning and go to church, sing the loudest in the choir stand, pray the most holiest of prayers and put on airs and fronts. I would hate to see these same people on the day of judgement!!! My bible tells me that God loves us all. It tells me that God has no respect of person, he doesn't see status or color. To hate a person based on the color of their skin is plain ignorant and a total contradiction to the word of God. What do you think our Creator is going to say when you go before him, "Oh you can come on in, even though the life you have lived is totally opposite from the instructions I left in the Bible for you." "You're white so come on in." Oh man I hope I live long enough to see him come back. I plan on being caught up when he comes back. Don't let ignorance cause you to be left behind or worst to burn in hell for all eternity. Reread your word, ask God to give you understanding. The way that seems right unto man leads to destruction, but the way of the Lord leads to eternal life. I wish some of the Klansmen that have died before you could come back and tell you about the hell that they are living in for all eternity, how they burn and suffer. I wonder if part of their punishment, for all eternity, allows them to get to see some of the people that they have murdered, maimed and mutilated. Wonder how it feels to see them walking in the land of milk and honey, living in their mansions, while they suffer for all eternity. I bet they would change their tune. Unfortunately, I realize that their are just evil people in the world that the Devil allows to walk the earth and wreak havoc. We as Christians have to continue to pray for these lost souls. We cannot allow ignorance and hatred to become a part of our lives. I would have no desire to live in a place such as this. To live around people such as those. They think they are elite and set apart. It just saddens me that we have come so far, yet have so far to go. Hopefully they know by now we all bleed red, they should with all the blood that has been shed. And to the blogger who states that people don't care about the raped young lady because she is white, well that's crazy. What people are saying is that does not justify more acts of violence, if the story is true. Again, we know that there have been many false reports, coerced testimonies from scared young/old black men that were just not true. I'm not saying this incident is false, but let's make sure we know all the facts. We were not there so we will never know. Ijs.

The OP post has nothing to do with GA, much less Atlanta.

I do believe the post is referring to problems that occurred 100 + years ago. We live in Cumming Ga now and love it! Its diverse, the property taxes are not too high, the schools have a good reputation, and it does not feel urban which we wanted. I grew up in Atlanta and moved to Cumming 12 years ago.
