To Democrats and any movement that seeks to be treated equitably; don't let this reality simply disappear. This is racism. It is important all these issues are part of a public agenda. Why? To prevent it from occurring again by men primarily considered moral by their church affiliation. They are not moral men. They pray, but, they do not live a moral life.

The U.S. Supreme Court (click here) threw out a North Carolina Supreme Court ruling on Monday that had upheld the state’s Republican-drawn legislative and congressional districts.
The U.S. justices said the state’s highest court must reconsider whether legislators relied too heavily on race when drawing the 2011 maps, which shape how state and federal elections will be decided until at least 2020.
The justices said the state court must reconsider its December 2014 ruling in the Dickson v. Rucho case in light of the U.S. high court’s decision last month in an Alabama redistricting case.
Margaret Dickson, a former state representative, was one of the challengers in a lawsuit contending that maps drawn by the Republican-led legislature in North Carolina were designed to weaken the black vote in violation of the U.S. and North Carolina constitutions....
Given the USA EPA involvement in the Duke Power disasters, NC is now seeking to change the laws of the state. Why do they think that actually matters when the EPA overrides the corruption?
Also, one of the complaints by North Carolina is that the state environmental laws are too strict. That is a laugh and a half. The North Carolina endangered animals is based in commerce. If the animal is important in hunting and trapping it is important enough to protect. Let's think about that.
If the only animals classified in North Carolina are those important to hunting, trapping and sportsman or sportswomen, those animals will be predisposed to be listed as endangered?

To some Republicans, (click here) the bills are a responsible response to what they call redundant and often onerous government regulations.
To environmental advocates, they’re a further retreat from long-established policies that have helped clean up North Carolina’s air and water and made it a national leader in solar energy.
“I was sort of dumbfounded that there was even more (Republicans) could do to erode environmental protections,” said Rep. Pricey Harrison, a Greensboro Democrat. “But they found other opportunities.”
State lawmakers have introduced several measures that give environmentalists heartburn. Some, like this week’s sweeping bill on state regulations, have passed either the House or the Senate. Others are still in committee....
The legislative agenda in North Carolina is obviously corrupt. It is obvious should the bills become the law they will make their way into the court systems. While the final ruling comes down to end the obvious corruption and unsound practices and policies of the McCrory/Pope Administration; they will run game as long as they can.
The hunting and trapping laws need to be reviewed to enforce stricter use. Why? Because NC is experiencing population growth that will place the construction lobby in the middle of neighborhood safety and simply building where there is land.
The Triangle region, (click here) home to over 1.5 million people, is projected to grow rapidly to over 2.5 million by 2035. We will add more people in the next 25 years than the existing population of our 10 largest municipalities. Our growth rates have outpaced population growth for the nation and for North Carolina. As of 2007, Wake County was the 7th fastest growing county in the U.S.
The Raleigh-Cary metro area is now the fastest growing region of the entire country! ...
North Carolina laws that fall into political agendas of the right wing to promote their election and re-election are antiquated. That is the case of a number of southern states.
Why antiquated? North Carolina has laws to protect species when they are endangered and valuable to commerce. NC also refuses to list plants in any endangered status. The responsibility to protect valuable flora falls completely to the federal government. That puts NC Commerce in complete opposition to science. The NC legislature by ignoring HABITAT for their commerce animals is causing endangered status of these animals. If the animals do not have habitat they won't stay and flourish but become endangered as a default setting.
The population issue revolves around the fact rifles carry bullets a farther distance than shot guns. North Carolina's cities will find it necessary to create a moratorium on hunting to prevent bullets coming through the walls of homes. The entire gun and population growth should be a part of any political agenda to avert deaths now and in the future. It is this type of reality that cannot be left up to developing legislation after the fact. Cities across the USA have to determine what is best for their communities to prevent hunting accidents proactively. Raleigh is one of those communities.
