So, what’s been happening in North Carolina lately? Well, it’s spring, the weather is beautiful and…

North Carolina Hospital's New Slogan 'Cheat Death' Is Destined to Disappoint - because, apparently, BLASPHEMY! Except when we want to cheat death.

North Carolina GOP wants to create state religion, says federal courts have no power to determine constitutionality of anything - once again, proving that when we like it, the Constitution is the SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND (2nd Amendment) and any other time? Fuck that old fashioned POS.

Eleven North Carolina Republicans Sponsor Resolution Saying Their State Can Ignore The Constitution

(although North Carolina House Speaker kills legislation to create official state religion) - because obvs, it might be unconstitutional

ALEC-Sponsored Bill To Repeal North Carolina’s Renewable Energy Standard Narrowly Passes Out Of Committee - proving once again who was really elected. ALEC.

North Carolina GOP Wants To Require Background Checks On Welfare Applicants Instead Of Gun Buyers - because 2nd AMENDMENT - YAY!!! And POORS - BOO!!!

North Carolina Is Just Now Considering Repeal Of Jim Crow Voter Restriction - y'all might want to hold off on this. As soon as SCOTUS kills the Voting Rights Act, you'll still have Jim Crow!! Yay you, North Carolina! That's one less piece of legislation you'll need to rewrite.

'tha fuck, North Carolina?

Let's see...
Death penalty - yay!... check

Welfare is evil - yay!... check
First Amendment, boo. Second Amendment yay! ... check

By the way, all of these headlines are just from this week.

My, my, my. North Carolina, you sure are busy. Too bad you can’t be more like your colleagues in the House. Now they know how to get shit done.

  1. I kind of wish they'd pass that official religion one. Because the in fighting on whose specific sect of Christianity is the "official" one would be EPIC. And while the nutballs are fighting it out, maybe the rational people would have a chance to get something done.

    1. True. But just the idea that they think it's ok and not unconstitutional? It's beyond my comprehension.
