For real. I wish we could have had Mayor Franklin instead of the ridiculous Home Depot founder who got up there and started talking about how quotas kept him out of medical school and from fulfilling his dreams

(The only reason we even had this guy was because Home Depot funds the GA Aquarium, and the guy who built the thing's son was graduating or some such thing ... it was such as crappy speech, and so right wing.)
