Border War

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Tenneseans guard your southeastern border. Georgia needs the water.

The border legislation claims the Georgia-Tennessee state line was incorrectly marked 1.1 miles south of the intended border, the 35th parallel, when a Georgia survey crew plotted the line 190 years ago. The legislation states Georgia has repeatedly tried to correct the error for more than 100 years.

Authors of the legislation made no secret of the fact that this latest attempt to move the border north was to capture a bend in the Tennessee River and rights to the water as Georgia endures historic drought.

2nd Amendment gets a boost in Georgia

Georgians are leading the way in holding up 2nd Amendment rights.

Georgians with carry licenses can tote their concealed guns on public transportation, in restaurants that serve alcohol and in state parks under legislation signed by Gov. Sonny Perdue Wednesday.

This issue is definitely heading to the courts. The anti-gun nuts can’t resist.
