They are against lifestyles being pushed on the public, every stinking day. advertisement showing agendas instead of products

The greater issue is their racism (it is racism). What is it to them if a couple is mixed? Why should it make their "blood boil"?

It is not contrary to Scripture. The reason we find for races in Scripture is related to location (the one reference being the "black is beautiful" passage). Languages were confused so that people would populate the earth. Israel was not to mix with pagans (intermarry). None of this has anything to do with the racism of these government officials.

When a government official expresses his or her racist ideas while in office (regardless of race) I think it appropriate they step down because they represent people of these racises and interracial couples.

What makes my "blood boil" is not interracial couples or even people who do not like it. What does it for me is "Christian" pastors who exchange the gospel of Christ for proclaiming their personal preferences as if it were biblical authority.

I bet their problems they see developing are not good Christians being part of the community but don't want to be like Atlanta.

Why are gratuitous interracial couples on every commercial when the ad has nothing to do with marriage or race. The same ad companies push agendas the client does not pay for,.. Campbell's soup as an example.

An official can voiced personal opinions but not let personal decisions become policy .

Try that in Atlanta, Be a Conservative white male in Atlanta city government. They are still sorting the corruption of the last administration of race,

Houschton is a small town of 1800, commutable distance to Atlanta jobs But rising home values are keeping expansion there to the affluent buying on that side of Jackson Co. Jackson co is more worried about gangs from neighboring Gwinnett

UPDATED: UPDATED: Elections board approves recall petition applications

Friday, September 6. 2019
Updated: 4 hours ago

Efforts to recall two Hoschton elected officials are moving forward.

The Jackson County Board of Elections approved Sept. 6 the legal sufficiency of the applications for recall petitions against Hoschton Mayor Theresa Kenerly and Mayor Pro Tem Jim Cleveland.

Those applications were submitted on Tuesday, Sept. 3, with each application having over the required 100 signatures.

Organizers of the effort now have 30 days to complete the next step — retrieving signatures of 30-percent of Hoschton’s registered voters — before a recall election can be called.

But that timeline could change if Kenerly and Cleveland challenge the effort in superior court.

Both Kenerly and Cleveland have confirmed they plan to challenge the efforts. That action will stop the recall timeline against them until the court decisions are made.

See the full story in the Sept. 11 issue of The Jackson Herald.

They might get 100 signatures each, but wont get 30% of the registered voters. Recall will die, Both will probably get reelected
The signatures will have to be verified by a judge as to residence inside city limits and even legibility of names
