Source: Raymond Boyd / Getty Fulton and Gwinnett counties may see MARTA really soon..buses that is. According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution , MARTA is gaining new momentum across the the region as local government prepare for expansion plans. Though bringing MARTA to these counties can be extremely beneficial to it’s residents, the words “MARTA” and “Transit mean different things to different people. If you are a Gwinnett County resident that is wishing for MARTA rail service transit, chances are you’ll be waiting forever. Quit frankly, county officials feel like rail services aren’t worth the hassle. Residents have shown more interest in the bus system which is the more affordable option. County officials aren’t interested in proposing MARTA because it has been rejected twice by voters. Gwinnett county is the second largest county in Georgia, and most people feel like the county is ready for mass transit. Former chairman candidate and founder of Gwinnett Needs Mass Transit, Jack Snyder says , “We have citizens who need this mass transit to commute to work going down to Atlanta. We also have businesses that are desiring of having individuals capable of arriving to their places of work by using mass transit.” Gwinnett is nearly 900,000 people and these people are not the same people that once rejected the bringing MARTA to Gwinnett in 1990. MARTA COO Richard Krisak states, “ “The millennial, the young folks, like my kids, they don’t really want to have a car. We’re seeing more and more with that population segment, takes transit as a choice, not as a necessity.” I don’t know about not having, but I know that having MARTA as an option when it comes to commuting to Atlanta, most millennials would agree with his statement. “I think it’s an uphill battle,” Chairwoman Charlotte Nash told the Atlanta Journal Constitution this week. “It’s about feeling like they don’t have control about how their money is spent (with MARTA),” she said County Commissioner John Heard expressed a similar sentiment. “I believe that if we put it on the ballot, a local transit SPLOST will pass – for Gwinnett County only,” Heard said. “Nobody wants to send our money down to the City of Atlanta.” Georgia lawmakers are looking at transit “Governance and funding ” . Some lawmakers would like to consolidate metro Atlanta ‘s many transit agencies, which include MARTA, the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority, Gwinnett County Transit and CobbLinc. A two hour commute from Snellville (gwinnett county ) to Atlanta or the MARTA system? MARTA please. Words by Ericc Adkins
An Atlanta-Area Landscaper Caught Having Sex With A Client’s Dog This guy just HAD to taste the dog biscuit …SMFH. According to the AJC , a 61-year-old landscaper named Cruz Barrera-Lugo has turned himself in to Gwinnett County after being wanted by police for having sex with his clients’ dog. Gwinnett County police are looking for a landscaper who they say was seen committing a “lewd sexual act” on his client’s dog. A man was playing in his yard with his nephew when he saw landscaper Cruz Barreralugo, 61, participating in the act with their dog, a police release said. When the landscaper realized the man had seen him, he fled in a black pickup truck. Police were immediately called to the Lawrenceville home and reviewed surveillance video of the incident. Barraluego worked as a landscaper at the home every two weeks for nearly a year, and police are working to determine whether there were more incidents like this in the past. Cops are looking to charge Barrera-Lugo with bestiality and cruelty to children (because the nephew witnessed). We REFUSE to believe this was Barrera-Lugo’s first go-round with that dog. Yuck.

This is what happened to Chris Henry, RIP: A Gwinnett County man was arrested Tuesday afternoon after allegedly putting his girlfriend on the hood of his SUV and ignoring her screams as he drove on I-85, Channel 2 Action News reported. But other drivers couldn’t help but notice the woman and are credited with helping her to safety, police told Channel 2. Others on I-85 called 911, took pictures of the woman’s ordeal and surrounded the SUV until the driver was forced to pull over. “We start motioning to each other, like can you believes this,” Adam Marlatt, a witness, told Channel 2. “One guy is showing me he’s taking pictures. He can tell I’m on the phone. And, I kind of mouthed to him, I’m on with 911.” Thanks to the Good Samaritans, the SUV finally stopped near the Mall of Georgia and officers quickly arrived and arrested the driver, Jonathon Lozano Salas. The woman, whose name was not released, was not seriously injured. Salas, 29, of a Lawrenceville arrest, was charged with aggravated assault, reckless conduct and simple battery.
