One night when I was walking home from work, unbeknownst to me - I was being followed.
I screamed, ran up a hill to escape, and watched him blow kissing faces in my direction as I fled.
When I reported this to the police, I found out that several other girls in the same area had been targeted by the same man. It took around two years, but he was eventually deported.
Reading that the government is now handing out posters to asylum seekers telling them not to have sex with girls or mutilate their genitals staggers me beyond belief.
If the most basic rules of civilisation have to be spelled out like this, how did we get to a point where people who need to be told this are allowed to be here in the first place?
The fact that this has to be written down like this at all is utterly terrifying.
@SarahisCensored Will the appeals court have anything to work with for ineffective counsel claims? People can’t be this bad unless on purpose or is this par for the course in Texas?
Bless your heart, Roy. Those of us who’ve been here our whole lives know exactly who you are.
You may want to paint yourself as a moderate who cares about his constituents, but the reality looks much different:
👉🏼You allowed Evergreen Packaging to squelch on a deal made with the people of Canton, North Carolina. That resulted in the closure of the paper mill that not only built the town but kept it afloat for more than a century. The people it hurt? Primarily heritage hillbillies.
👉🏼You failed to keep an eye on NCORR. The result? More than a 1000 North Carolinians are still waiting on home repairs and rebuilds a decade later. Those impacted were mostly minorities.
👉🏼You failed to test thousands of r*pe kits as AG. That decision impacted women all across the state. How many were victimized by repeat offenders because you failed to do your job?
👉🏼You put NC on one of the strictest COVID lockdowns in the country. Small businesses suffered while big box stores reaped the benefits.
👉🏼You implemented soft on crime policies that allowed cashless bail. It resulted in the deaths of people like Iryna Zarutska.
👉🏼You gave in to leftist demands to release hardened criminals during COVID. Many of those criminals offended again - resulting in the victimization of innocent people.
👉🏼You failed to act quickly and consistently in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. An entire region suffered because of your inability to direct and work with others.
We know who you are. And we don’t want you to represent North Carolina as a US Senator.
🎶 How many biscuits can you eat this morning? 🥞
The Biscuit Eaters are a bluegrass family band from Surrey County, North Carolina.
This talented family plays traditional mountain music full of soul, harmony, and foot-stompin’ fun. 🎻
NC SB1080 just passed the house at 73-46 to put a constitutional amendment on the ballot in Nov that would keep state taxes at 3.5% or lower. Former Dems Cunningham & Majeed, each from Mecklenburg, voted with Republicans. All Dems present voted no. #ncpol
@Patrick_am_I@Derrin1964 By stating the population isn’t being distributed evenly there is a negative connotation that population being unequally distributed is a bad thing. Just like the sentence, “Stop.” is a full sentence because the subject is understood to be “you.”
"How is Roy Cooper still competitive?
He handed the soft-on-crime gavel to our courts.
Now: High crime. Deadly stabbings. Repeat offenders walking free.
Voters still aren’t connecting the dots."
AH! That part. THAT RIGHT THERE.
Voters are not "connecting the dots" because they are not being SHOWN the dots.
"Soft-on-crime policies" is quite possible THE most vapid slogan EVER in a time such a now.
Rip the band-aid.
Explain the why.
Be a serious person.
Not you, @TBradleyNC I mean those pushing this VAPID VERBIAGE
@goneers We can only hope. I remember when this was a business town with Republicans and Democrats. Now everything in the county is one party rule and it doesn’t work.
