Fake Fliers Promise 'Free Food And Beer' At Mayoral Candidate Event
ATLANTA -- Atlanta mayoral candidate Lisa Borders said someone created fake fliers promising free food and beer at a scheduled block party she held Saturday. Borders said the fliers were distributed to people at a homeless center in downtown Atlanta.
"We are deeply saddened that another campaign would use the most vulnerable members of our community in an attempt to disrupt our event,” said Stacey Abrams, campaign manager.
Abrams said the “old-fashioned” style block party was meant to thank volunteers, current supporters and encourage others to join Borders in her quest to become Atlanta's next mayor.
The event, however, did feature cotton candy, popcorn, shaved ice, hot dogs, hamburgers and entertainment.
“By misusing our logo and handing out these fliers, they misled men and women who have faced more than enough difficulty,” said Abrams.

Way back before I retire from the police department someone slipped a dummy memo into the stack to be read at roll call. The Sgt had to read it three days in a row to make sure everyone heard it. The fake memo invited everyone to the Capt's house for a bar-b-que/ice cream party. It was scheduled to coincide with on the same day the Capt. returned from his vacation. You can imagine the fur flying in the Capt's office the next day, heads will roll; but they never found out who did the dirty deed.
BTW...I have no idea, really.
So let me get this clear, TF. They never caught you?
