Our Governor and General Assembly are taking us right over the edge with their disregard for the Constitution and desire to infringe upon peoples' rights to keep a small group of scared people happy.
After volunteering here for 16 years I feel like I'm swimming upstream through glue and I don't know what to do. The biggest change would be getting Gov McCrory out of here and we're up against Koch and Pope money. Sending $5 and $10 and whatever you have to Roy Cooper's campaign against him would be a start I think. If anyone would like to do that, it would mean so much to us here.

My brain is fried from the constant onslaught of political stupid that is happening daily (fed and state) but I'm hoping to have some more links to campaigns that will take out members of the NC General Assembly who voted to hate and discriminate yesterday.
I know it's looking like 1950 in North Carolina but we're still the place where the brine of the ocean meets the sweet fresh water of the river, sweet tea and Dean and Deluca share a street in Charlotte and our progressive beginnings in education are still trying to hold on. I think I'm talking myself into it almost as much as everyone else. It's like our state is on life support and the doctors are dingbats.
Thanks for listening (reading).
