Georgia 'man' threatens black kids at bus stop over noise: ‘This bullet has your name on it’



A Georgia 'man' was arrested late last week for brandishing a gun at children who were waiting for their bus, telling them he had a bullet with their name on it. WTOC reported that a group of middle and high school students in Chatham County told Campus Police and Savannah Metro Police that a man approached them at the bus stop because they were being loud and rowdy.

“He came out and he was really approaching the kids – you know cussing and using profanity,” one of the students at the bus stop recalled. “He came out and said, "I have a bullet with your name written on it.”

Carriying a gun was a bad move on his part. Did he really think one of the students were going to draw down on him? He should have left the gun in the house.

on his part. The gun is just a key accessory that lets you know he's part of the "new Klan," AKA the Gawd-fearin' patriots! The TEA party.
