Frazier, Georgia

Frazier is an unincorporated community in Bleckley County, in the U.S. state of Georgia.[1]

History

A post office called Frazier was established in 1882, and remained in operation until 1906.[2] J. J. Frazier, an early postmaster, gave the community his last name.[3] The Georgia General Assembly incorporated Frazier as a town in 1884.[4] The town charter was dissolved in 1995.[3]

gollark: Which makes sense, since it's the lizards spying on us from on top of the dome above the hexagonal Earth.
gollark: They just say "but TERRORISM" to shut down any critical reasoning about it and paint anyone who disagrees as *unpatriotic* and *eeeevil*.
gollark: Wikipedia notes misuse of *non-*mass surveillance in past. Spying on everyone and everything they do online will make it worse.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_surveillance_in_the_United_States
gollark: Oh, this too:- ignoring relevant laws and gathering data anyway until new laws can retroactively allow it- getting around limits on spying on citizens by sharing data with other "Five Eyes" nations and spying on them as foreigners
gollark: Well, it's pretty known that they do go around intercepting lots of stuff. There are many problems with this:- having private data like your internet traffic stored somewhere is kind of bad in itself.- if it's not abused yet it's basically only a matter of time.- there's no transparency anywhere and even a system of secret courts to judge things- it may help slightly to stop terrorists (no transparency so we can't check really) but is just a massive breach of privacy
