And so our discussion of Southern heritage will continue at least through one more weekend.
Confederate enthusiasts apparently intend to hold a massive "flag rally" at Stone Mountain Park on Saturday, with caravans arriving from several points on the compass throughout the morning. You can find the details on this Facebook post. A taste:
1.) NO racial slurs or offensive remarks
2.) NO alcohol, we do know its illegal and that will be opportunity for tickets/arrests
3.) NO taunting other vehicles, flipping other people off during the ride
4.) NO burning any flags of any type regardless of which flag
5.) STAY peaceful, which means NO violence
Remember there will be people everywhere!
Possibly media and cameras, ONE piece of negativity and that will be what goes Viral and that is what we will be remembered for. This is to show our support BC we care about where we live and grew up, lets keep this Clean and Peaceful!
Absolutely ZERO tolerance on these rules, if you don't think you can follow don't show up. There will be plenty others there who can follow the rules. See y'all there, thank you and God Bless!
A state official told us that park authorities are aware of the event. Given the diverse crowd the mountain attracts, we're guessing this could be a major overtime opportunity for local law enforcement.
