Atlanta's image sinks
The editorial cartoon in the March 20 paper says it all. Having lived in Atlanta (Sandy Springs area) for 20 years, and witnessing the turmoil the city and county governments were always in with corruption, it's no wonder this grievous situation occurred. City Hall is where the problem began and, unfortunately, it ended in the murder of four people that didn't have to happen.
The Associated Press article covered it very well about the city that always promoted itself as capital of the New South and now struts a "tarnished image" which has been going on since the days of former Gov. Lester "pick ax" Maddox.
