      What...

      So in Georgia, the law is legally a secret, but you can only know this if you have access to the law?

      That's what I get from this. The argument seems to be that the un-annotated law is "freely" available. But the annotated one isn't as annotations are subject to copyright. Guess which version of the law is the official one?

        And people here wonder why our state laws are so archaic and ass-backwards. Where is Daenerys Targaryen when you need her???

          No, apparently we all wonder what your state laws even ARE, since they are illegal to be known!

            That's why I support the Targaryan method of removing entrenched, crooked lawmakers. Lock 'em all in and burn it to the ground!

                      Not at all trendy, but English isn't this guy's first language.

                          How many collapsing bridges will it take for someone to actually fix our infrastructure? Granted, I know that means forcing politicians to spend road funding on actual roads, which is apparently the difficult part.

                            Not sure if that's an infrastructure thing or just a really hot fire thing.

                              Correct. this was a fire and damage. not bad infrastructure..

                                Ah, apparently I should've looked at more than the headline. Still, doesn't change my original sentiments.

                                  They're spending all of our infrastructure budget on the new baseball stadium... in Cobb freaking County (already the worst traffic in town, let's put a stadium there!!!) The whole thing is just a greasy political move by crooked politicians and everyone knows it.

                                    It was an INSANE sized fire. Could see the smoke for many, many miles.

                                        Speaking of bridges, the worst one I have ever seen was this baby:

                                        I almost went into the water because a pothole practically sent me airborne.
