Great quotes from this man's speech:
"What I want to know is this, 'When are you all going to start standing up for the majority?' And here's who the majority is: 'I'm the majority. I'm a law-abiding citizen.'"
He continues:
"Every time we have one of these shootings, no one wants to put the blame where it goes, which is at the shooter's feet. You want to put it at my feet. You want to turn around and restrict my right, constitutional right . . . to buy a firearm and protect myself from some of the very people you're talking about here tonight. It's ridiculous."
"It doesn't make any sense. The law-abiding citizens of this community . . . We're the first ones taxed and the last ones considered, and the first ones punished when things like this happen, because our rights are the ones being taken away.

He didn’t need a written speech He was one!.... I salute!
Mark Keith Robinson (born August 8, 1968) is an American politician serving as the 35th lieutenant governor of North Carolina since 2021. A member of the Republican Party, he is the first African-American to hold the office. After defeating Democratic nominee Yvonne Lewis Holley in the 2020 lieutenant gubernatorial election.
I want to be on his team.
The best part of watching him is when he points to himself and says: “I am the majority” his shoulders are so broad I could almost believe that he was the majority all by himself.
Amen. Well said.

Well, I would vote for him, just based on that speech.
However, like Kari Lake here in Arizona, that vote would be his/hers to lose during the campaign since there is no “public service “ record.
That said, we did pretty well with President Trump in 2016.
In April 2018, Robinson attended a meeting of the Greensboro City Council, where they debated whether or not to cancel a gun show in the wake of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. Robinson spoke in favor of gun rights, and video of his speech went viral after it was shared on Facebook by Mark Walker. He was invited to speak at the National Rifle Association's annual convention that year.
I heard him speak at a fund raiser this past summer in North Carolina.
He does not mince words!!...He calls a spade a spade!
He has a powerful voice and a powerful presence!!!
A force to be reckoned with because he speaks the truth!
He speaks just as strongly, passionately now as he did in the video....
..he’s currently Lt Governor of North Carolina
,....and hope he will be GOVERNOR!
Sounds like he needs to replace Graham
He is now the Lt governor. ran for office.
We are on is team - we're the law biding citizens he's talking about... the one's liberal 'elites' push around and tax and treat like crap.
