“Greensboro City Council members are considering canceling the annual Gun and Knife Show...”
Greensboro patriots should consider canceling the city council, if North Carolina is a home rule state.
A home rule state allows resident voters to cut a petition to force every member of the council to stand again for re-election. It involves creating a petition for re-election and passing it around for signatures.
If enough citizens sign the petition (the percentage is determined by state law), then council members must stand for election, usually within 90 days.
Patriots run a candidate to oppose the leftist weenie. If the patriot gets more votes than the Social Justice Wimp, the commie is immediately removed from office.
It’s very effective. We used this tactic with great success in Michigan.
Greensboro has a mild progressive streak that’s not too wide but very deep, goes back to Quaker settler roots. Also a large black community and for the south a large Jewish community and they ain’t orthodox. Several good-sized universities too, and that skews things, especially the Quaker-established Guilford College. They’ve managed in the recent past in Greensboro to elect a Republican mayor but there are definite limits to just how outright convervative an elected city official can be and hope to remain in office. Same goes for the US House of Representatives seat long held by the late Republican Howard Cable, a fine man and a beloved Representative who was very cagey about how far he could push things. So, I’m not saying it’s hopeless but we’re not talking a red city here, the whole county has been blue for quite some time.
Seems to me the leftist thing is to insist a government run a thing.
