"With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably."
Those words are uttered as wisdom & warning. The first time anyone's freedom is trodden on, we're all damaged.

@LPRadicals It was great fun. The LPRC folks really know how to unwind and have a good time after a day of parliamentary procedure and inane time wasting motions. Can't wait for the next shindig.
The sheer amount of different people and groups that are a NO on the transit TAX TRIPLING is heartwarming. We don't agree on everything but we all see this tax is not good for the people of Mecklenburg county.
If there's one thing they proved above all else this year, it's that Charlotte transit is not working, and their answer is to triple the cost you pay to subsidize it and not actually fix the root problems.
VOTE NO on the transit tax hike.
They want to triple the transit portion of the sales tax.
Forever.
YOU get to VOTE NO.
Don't miss the municipal elections. They are incredibly important.
An article I wrote for the Libertarian Party of Mecklenburg Co. awhile back. I'm far from a Democrat, but wanted to go for the fair and balanced approach. Enjoy if you please.

To all candidates for public office in Mecklenburg county:
LPMeck sent out our candidate surveys this morning.
We are looking for the best options to present to our membership for all races where we don't have candidates running.
Check your spam or reach out if you did not receive one.
Hate Speech is a made up phrase to implement real punishments for this made up "crime". We are all free to speak our minds, regardless of whether someone else takes offense. We have the freedom to say terrible things and hopefully the good upbringing to keep them to ourselves.
Please follow @Action_NC , we are working with them to defeat this Mecklenburg tax increase and need all hands on deck to prevent uninformed voters from raising our cost of living for lies about transit upgrades and expansions.
And PLEASE don't sit this election out.
