[QUOTE="scratch, post: 3815162, member: 1674"] Atlanta was peaceful during the Civil Rights Era compared to other parts of the country. It was other places where the Democratic Governors used the water hoses and attack dogs on protesters like Gov. George Wallace did in Alabama. As the home of MLK there were many peaceful marches and I remember a lunch counter protest. Atlanta Mayor Ivan Allen's leadership oversaw a peaceful transformation away from segregation. I was born on Peachtree Rd. in Downtown Atlanta, I witnessed it. We tolerate each other a lot better here than a lot of places I have visited North of the Mason-Dixon Line. [/QUOTE]
