Short but sweet
The Hall County Board of Elections called itself into Executive Sessions and asked the public to leave the room.
That's a huge violation of basic security.
Why?
If I'm in the room, and I attached a recording device to my chair, I can record every word of the Executive Session. When the Executive Session ends, I walk into the room and recover my device.
Every idiot knows better than this. Call the Executive Session and have the Board move to another room.
BTW, have you seen my secret recording device?

Property tax cut in Hall County
When a county rolls back a millage rate, some of that beneficial reduction leaves the county by lowering the rate to international corporations, national corporations, and other agencies based beyond the county lines.
To produce and capture a local benefit for strictly the resident homeowners who carry the major burden for property taxes, the county, in conjunction with local legislation, should increase exemptions, specifically the homestead exemption.
That will give a 'flat rate' tax reduction, spread across the county, targeted to those who live in the county and represent the wealth base.

Voter suppression
We have many voting problems as the Midterm elections race towards us. Not the least, Republican opposition to letting naturalized citizens vote who do not speak English.
There's no problem with those who are here and do not speak our language. The problem lies with those who are here who can hear and do not listen in any language.

Votes Missing in Hall County Primary
"It's a fact, Jack!"
Georgia operates legacy technology as voting machines. The machines fail in various ways during Election Day and election night. Sometimes, they just lock up in a terrible parody of the 2002 Windows machines. Just without the blue screen of death graphic.
So how do you know, Mike Parker. How do you know.
Each election, each poll manager must post on the door of each polling place, copies of the downloaded memory tapes from each machine.
On May 22nd, in the Georgia primary, machine #3 at Candler precinct #10 failed to show vote total in 4 races. Nothing for the races. Nothing.
Machine #3 recorded no votes for me in the Democratic primary, County Commission District 1. No votes for either Republican in County Commission District 1. No votes for Alana Watkins or Pat Andersen in HD-30 ... At least 2 contested races and 1 uncontested race had an under-count of cast ballots.
The Hall County Election Board either does not know or chooses to ignore the issue.
Locally, Alana Watkins holds digital images of the tapes. She shared those freely starting on May 23rd. Kim Copeland, Hall County Democratic Party Chair, took photos and videos of the tapes. He's shared those with the public.
It's documented and it's a fact.
Clunky old machines designed and built before the year 2002, work like shit.

Trump and Chamberlain, a contrast in style
"Workers covered the windows of government offices with sandbags and installed sirens in police stations to warn of approaching enemy bombers. By torchlight, they scarred the city’s pristine parks by digging miles of trenches to be used as air-raid shelters. A knot of traffic snarled the city as Londoners began an exodus. Hundreds of thousands who planned to stay in the city stood patiently in line for government-issued gas masks and air-raid handbooks. London Zoo officials even developed plans to station gun-toting men in front of cages to shoot the wild animals in case bombs broke open their cages and freed them."
Hitler had given a deadline to the world. 'Give me what I want, or there will be war.'
Britain lost a million souls in the War to End War. With 48 hours before Hitler's deadline, France and England met with two dictators, Hitler and Mussolini.
Neville Chamberlain came home and offered us 'Peace in Our Time.'
Britain got a few months of peace. Chamberlain got rave reviews for a time. The entire British island went all party city in celebration of peace.
How long that peace lasted after a direct negotiation with the 'leader of the Free World' and two dictators, Hitler and Mussolini.
North Korea will revisit the volatile stance toward our country. When it benefits their internal needs.

New bot offering on the Internet
Hot off the Russian code writing presses, a new disinformation campaign began on May 15, 2018.
Jack D. Minzey
Watch for that name.
Mr. Minzey died in April at the age of 89. A bot named 'Jen' began circulating a last message from Jack on May 15, 2018.
Jen, who or what they might be, has written 16,008 posts on one blog since May 2015. Prolific, if real. I calculate about 16 posts per day not including 12,045 'Thanks' and 17,809 'Thanked.'
That is strong work even for an Alumni Member, VIP, and donor ...
Now, I could be wrong and Jen exists as a flesh and blood person who blogs, thanks, and thanked 45,862 times, perhaps 7 days a week in 3 calendar years on just one web site.
If Jen et al highjacked Jack's good name, shame on them. Jack served his country during the Korean Conflict. He wrote at least 2 books on education, one apparently in 1972 and the last one in 1994, based on information on Amazon. I did not find any other internet references for Jack D. Minzey, author and "prolific writer."
Here's a sample of Jen's post and 'Jack's final chapter.'
From Jack's reported final chapter ...
In my humble opinion, the head of the Department of Education at any respectable university, a prolific author on government and education, could write as if dependent upon one verb. He could. He might. I expect a little more. I expect some accuracy in the facts. I expect some passion and some objectivity from Jen and her Jack.
The 'we all know' accusation always compels belief. I see it used often by scholars.
The term, 'Shadow Government,' also a term used in literature reviews, flies around with UFO stories It flies very well when alleging a conspiracy.
I love and hate the sentence about the 'massive unmasking of the opposition ...' Should I thank Obama for unmasking the opposition or thank Jack for confirming Obama's opposition hid behind masks?
Jack Minzey, Jen, and 45,000 blog entries. Russians? No. I strongly suggest the White Star Line built an unsinkable ship for young Rose, God made the world flat, and Viagra really works for women.
My condolences to the real family of Jack D. Minzey, Korean Vet, professor emeritus, author, and human being.

A few days ago, Jack Minzey,
sent what was to be the final chapter in the long line of
books and treatises which he had written.
Professionally, Jack was head of the
Department of Education at Eastern Michigan University as
well as a prolific author of numerous books, most of which
were on the topic of Education and the Government role
therein.
From Jack's reported final chapter ...
The Mueller investigation is about
removing President Trump from office and overturning the
results of an election. We all know that...
That's a civil war.
There's no shooting. At least not
unless you count the attempt to kill a bunch of Republicans
at a charity baseball game practice...
Under Obama, a state wasn't
allowed to go to the bathroom without asking permission. But
under Trump, Jerry Brown can go around saying that
California is an independent republic and sign treaties with
other countries.
Donald Trump has caused the Shadow
Government to come out of hiding ...
It's not a free country when
Obama officials engage in massive unmasking of the
opposition ...

A letter to the Times, an explanation
Someone suggested I explain my recent actions and objections to the local GOP blatantly abusing the Hall County Sheriff's Office's name for political gain.
The GOP used Facebook and the internet to publicize a 'public event' on private property. I objected to the language of the announcement as it read, "We are very excited to announce that we will be hosting a Community Day on Saturday, May 19th in conjunction with the Hall County Sheriff’s Office!"
The GOP used a banner which I have attached as a picture. It also used the phrase, "in conjunction with." I have other pictures of the announcement as it appeared on the party's webpage.
Although I feel strongly that the gun safety message trumps any partisan political point of view, the HCSO would not give its name to a street party.
I felt shock and outrage. Hall County's government abuses our 1st Responders with below standard wages and has, in my opinion, raided their pension benefits. No county Law Enforcement employee should be forced to sue his County Commission. Not even 1st Lt. Brad Rounds who, in the Times coverage of the lawsuit, would retire with a monthly pension of $389 after a career covering parts of four decades.
For the deceptive political ad, I took the issue to the County Commission. Looking back at the Times article of May 9th, you did reach out to the GOP on the issue. They did not at that point remove or change the ad. As I had expected, they resisted, continuing to use the HCSO as a co-hosting, in conjunction with, as a full sponsor of the candidate showcase.
I did characterize Matt Smith's response in the Times article as the 'denials of a slightly pregnant virgin.' Never was that comment directed at any county official or member of the Sheriff's office.
I continued to press the issue with the County, the Sheriff, and the Times until the false advertisement was removed and a new ad posted by the GOP.
The GOP never had a right to run such an ad. This GOP event seems very similar to another GOP event held in August of 2014. At that 'public' event, held on private property in Dawsonville, a citizen journalist, Nydia Tisdale, was arrested by a Law Enforcement officer. She faced a court trial for no better reason than acting within the 2nd Amendment's protections for journalists. For what some call a misunderstanding, Ms. Tisdale bears forever a criminal record with a conviction for obstruction.
Given this example, I feel justified in approaching the County and the Sheriff to clean up the GOP's language.

New Private Prison in Florida
Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the Department of Justice, in conjunction with others, studied prison reform and rehabilitation.
Among the factoids discovered, prisons are too harsh and lack the facilities for nurturing. Although other reformers consider rehab, Sessions prefers the teaching of new careers, especially those with a pleasant working environment, usually outdoors. This meets his criteria of nurturing and career paths with his stated goal of convicts re-entering society in useful and productive jobs.
With this in mind, the DOJ is paying for a long term study targeting new private prison system in Florida.
The first of these new prisons will be a private property with a golf course and an ocean side pool. The exact location remains a secret.

Update
After a couples days, the Hall County GOP'ers have reworded their advertising. It no longer mentions hosting in conjunction with the Hall County Sheriff's Office.
I'm going with this theory.
The GOP made a mistake, bragging about HCSO.
The HCSO wasn't aware of the language labeling the office as hosting a partisan political event.
Someone brought the issue to the Sheriff or another leader within the department.
That person, or the Sheriff contacted the right people and clarified a need for separation between law enforcement and the outcomes of local elections.
Who ever took the high road and behaved like an adult needs a pat on the back.
Since we'll never know, a well done to the HCSO and it's leadership.

Hall County GOP lying?
On May 8th, I contacted Hall County in reference to a GOP political event being hosted "in conjunction" with the 'Hall County Sheriff's Office.'
The Commission did not respond.
Finally, I contacted the Commission's under paid and over worked clerk. Through her efforts, the Sheriff made a non-responsive reply.
I've demanded a press release to clarify to the public the exact role the Sheriff's Office is taking by hosting "in conjunction."
I've demanded the Sheriff's Office avoid the appearance of providing it's service and name to the campaigns of the GOP by withdrawing any unpaid or free service to the GOP.
I have no written reply and the ad remains worded:
"We are very excited to announce that we will be hosting a Community Day on Saturday, May 19th in conjunction with the Hall County Sheriff’s Office! "
To clarify my position, If the ad said, "We are very excited to announce that we will be hosting a Community Day on Saturday, May 19th in conjunction with the Southern Poverty Law Center," then I would understand the Law Center is a host and not merely making an appearance.
Here is a snap shot of the GOP's homepage.
What do you think? Is the GOP using the Sheriff's Office to attract donors? Is the GOP mixing it's brand with the Hall County Sheriff's Office for political gain?
Two days of asking Hall County for a direct response.

Stories
The pension stories started running in the Gainesville Times in 2017 when five current and former Hall County employees filed an estimated $75 million class-action lawsuit.
The story identifies 1st Lt. Bradford Rounds. Rounds, with 29 years of service, would get a pension of $389 at retirement. He doesn't want to get $75 million dollars. He wants the County Commission to pay a just and fair pension to all retiring employees.
Whatever happened in the back rooms before 2017, the 'pension shortage' for 1st Responders and court employees became public on January 12th, 2017 when the County got served with papers.
I'm sure the Commission was given a chance to do the right thing. They didn't. They are being sued.
The next story comes on March 17, 2017. The Commission, through its attorney, denies any responsibility for the pension promises.
"Plaintiffs ... did not ever have an employment contract with the County promising them unchanged retirement benefits." The County Commission can't be sued because the board is “not a legal entity capable of being sued.”
A local judge does the right thing on October the 6th, 2017. With the case moved from Fulton County, where it would get a fair and impartial hearing, Judge Oliver disqualified herself “to avoid any appearance of impropriety or the absence of impartiality.”
An honorable move. The case goes forward.
Senior Judge Martha Christian takes the case and conducts a first hearing on March 1st, 2018. The judge gives the plaintifs, numbering more than 100 current and former employees, a right to continue the suit and gather information through the discovery process.
The case remains in discovery, a process expected to take months.

Implanting the Gospel Seed ... in Story Daniels
Trump, it is reported, has been planting the seed of The Gospel through out the World.
How? He tattoo'd the words, The Gospel, on a rather small appendage of his body. No. Not one of his hands or a pinky. Think smaller.
Stormy Daniels has seen The Gospel and had the seeds of The Gospel implanted in her. She says, 'I'll never be able to forget that moment. My life changed forever. I can never go back to being just another sex worker. I feel a deep shame. But, the more I talk about The Gospel, the stronger I feel.'
Other women witnessed The Gospel and felt the seed spreading in them. Some men call them liars and other names. Main Steam media outlets refuse to repeat the claims.
Oh, when will we all respect The Gospel?
PS. I'm joking. Their wasn't room for the tattoo. But there was transparency in the rubber.

Trump's DNA matches! He is the Father!
A private investigator, driving a red Ferrari, stole a DNA sample from Donald Trump while the President was visiting Hawaii looking for a long form birth certificate.
The PI's two accomplishes, named Zeus and Apollo, kept the Secret Service at bay during the robbery.
The DNA evidence was read out by Maury Povich during a break from commercials selling Reverse Mortgages.
The evidence is in. Donald Trump is the father of Stormy Daniels and the father of Olaf.
Could be? Fake News? Scored some bad pizza and grew a warped sense of humor? Papa John's!

Stormy Daniels Abortion
Can you imagine that headline in the papers tomorrow?
How about a lead in line like this?
Stormy Daniels forced to have late term abortion by Trump. Trumps lawyer paid for it. Flown to secret location in Mexico.
It could happen. Might be in the super market tabloids by now.

Bad joke
According to a fake new poll, 54 percent of Republican voters don’t believe Trump was the best choice for president, they wished they’d picked someone else. Kind of like when you go to buy a shirt. You see all these shirts, plain patterns, regular shirts. They look OK but not exciting. Then tucked in the middle of all these plain shirts, you see this totally awesome shirt. It’s bold. It’s different. It doesn’t play by the other shirts’ rules. You buy it, you get home, you try the shirt on, you look at yourself in the mirror and then your wife walks in and says, “What the hell are you wearing?”
Another bad joke
Yesterday, a glitch kept sending iPhones the same CNN news alert repeatedly. But if I wanted to be annoyed by the same CNN news alert over and over, I'd just watch CNN for five minutes.

24 weeks gestation pictures
Here's the story.
My Facebook news feed fed me another story about ground up babies, saying that babies born at 24 weeks gestation look like this:
So how dare anyone deny THAT is human life and grind that precious living baby into dog food?
Well, it's not a picture of a baby 'just born' at 24 weeks gestation. I'm not sure of the original source or who might have hijacked the family album. It might be a premature birth baby 4 months or more after birth. Or, even longer. Again, only Mom and Dad really know and someone else hijacked their love and privacy.
So what does it look like with a live birth at 24 weeks gestation? Something more like this picture from the public domain:
