Where’s the Money? Time For An External Forensic Audit and Grand Jury Investigation into SPLOST and Title I Funds
To DeKalb County Taxpayers & Voters:
We are sending out a rally call for an external forensic audit and grand jury investigation into E-SPLOST and Title I Funds. The reports given by our local school board are conflicting and unreliable. The taxpayers and voters need transparency, ethics, and accountability. We can no longer trust our Board of Education to provide oversight of our tax dollars that fund our school system without an audit and investigation.
We must insist the GBI and Federal agencies get involved in this issue. We can not trust the DeKalb Board of Education to “police themselves.” Our children and neighborhood schools deserve better oversight and accountability.
Please contact your school board members, GBI, federal agencies, etc. and demand an external forensic audit and grand jury investigation into E-SPLOST and Title I Funds to ensure transparency, ethics, and accountability:
SB 469: Imagine Parents and Homeowners aka T-Mobile Protesters charged with Felonies
By Viola Davis RN BSN
Imagine being a parent and/or homeowner protesting against T-Mobile’s attempt to place a cell phone tower on your child’s school ground, only to learn later that you must hire a criminal attorney to defend you against the charge of a felony.
Imagine being a Christian or Catholic protesting against a privately owned business that has a record of performing abortions in the middle of your neighborhood commercial district, only to learn that the owner hired security to identify every person participating in the protest to ensure everyone is charged with a felony.
These two examples are hot button issues that the state of Georgia is dealing with that would make the average citizens a felon placing them on the same level of a harden criminal for doing nothing more than exercising their Constitutional rights under the 1st Amendment and freedom to peacefully assemble. The corporations and politicians have finally found a way to put a stop to civil disobedience through to use of SB469.
Americans out there cannot imagine examples so crazy. John Lennon’s song, Imagine, was a song of future hope and peace. Unfortunately, today’s politicians have created a future that makes a mockery of the Constitution through legislation such as SB469. Who could imagine Republican Reps. Don Balfour (R-Snellville), Bill Hamrick (R-Carrollton), Bill Cowsert (R-Athens), and Ross Tolleson (R-Perry) introducing a bill (SB469) that would make civil disobedience a felony thus placing the average taxpayers and voters with a charge ending any further involvement with their government. We have a small group of conservatives with an agenda to criminalize dissent.
As a Veteran, I ask that every American that value the Constitution contact Senator Don Balfour and his Co-Sponsors and remind them that this nation was created out of dissent. As a parent and homeowner who just protested against T-Mobile at the LaVista location, I cannot imagine being charged with a felony for participating in a mass protest rally to bring attention to the fact that we wanted to stop the placement of cell phone towers on school grounds. The bill claims to be directed towards labor; however, the bill prohibits mass picketing to certain private residences.
It’s time for the public to place “We the People” back into the Constitution. Why? The elected officials who are hired with our vote and paid with our tax dollars have forgotten who truly possess the power of government. “We the People” must remind our employees (the elected officials) that we are the government. To criminalize dissent is the first step in destroying our Constitution. As a Veteran, I take an oath to defend our Constitution against enemies “foreign and domestic”. Civil Disobedience is American and legal under the Constitution of the United State.
Please contact the bill’s sponsors and give them your opinion of the law:
