McCrory’s TV Ads
Dear Editor,
The US government is destroying the value of your savings and earnings via money printing at a galloping 8 percent annual rate. It ignores laws in persecuting conservatives (targeting Republican congressmen and people protesting the stolen election). It ignores laws by opening what used to be the US southern border to an invasion of 3 million illegal immigrants. It forces Americans to call men “women” and forces them to accept corrupt lies about public health or lose their jobs – careers to which they’ve often dedicated their lives. It has fomented a horrible spike in crime with the help of BLM/Antifa.
It is as though the ruling class is trying to suicide the country.
So, in view of the dire problems our country faces, what is Senate candidate Pat McCrory’s only topic of concern, as he spends millions on TV ads? His only message is to slander Congressman Ted Budd, who has generally opposed the ruling class’s attempts to destroy America (as much as a minority party congressman can). Even worse is that in order to slander Budd, McCrory has had to purposefully lie, splicing film to create the false impression that Budd befriended Putin.
By these ads, McCrory has exposed his values and lack of character.
Who needs Democrats when you have a Republican behave deceitfully with such malice?
Will Ferrell
Amen …
Leave it to Will Ferrell to write something hilarious in a local news blog! The guys a comedic genius!
Will ,you are so right .When McCrory is acting like a Democrat! We need to send Budd to Washington to represent us.He has shown by his representing us in the House that he has the fortitude to stand against the Democrats and give back to them as they give to him.
I think that he will handle any ‘crap-sandwich ‘that the Dems throw his way.
.We sure don’t need another person who ran as a Republican but let a Democrat handle his job like the
One being replaced Richard Burr. He and Liz Cheney were a couple of Republicans that went to Washington and got in bed with the Democrats.Burr was so bad he yielded his position to a Democrat from Virginia .
So please get out and vote Budd Not McCrory
BLM / Anifa have spiked crime rates? Those riots stopped a good while back. Now BLM leaders are just spending all the money raised on fancy houses.
I assume you use BLM/Anifa as a cover word for ‘black people are raising crime rates’. That is what most bigoted republicans do these days. Why hide it. Be a racist out in public. Trump said it was ok. Wear your little loser confederate flag tshirt and whine about all the other subtitle racist lines that modern republicans are making popular again like welfare queen, thugs, etc…. You are clearly ok being Transphobic out in public. Come on Will. Get yourself out of the closet and be the best racist / bigot you can be! Trump might even invite you to speak at a rally!
Your assumptions are absurd. BLM/Antifa dishonestly accused cops of targeting blacks, which is contradicted by reems of evidence, and thus put cops on their back foot, afraid to do rigorous policing. The result is a huge spike in crime, with black people being the primary victims. BLM/Antifa hurt black people horribly. There is nothing honest or good about BLM/Antifa; they are effectively hate groups–Brownshirts for the ruling class.
No doubt Chris, you’ll just reply with more name calling and assumptions unrelated to fact
Many police forces have almost a 3 to 1 traffic stop for minor none moving offenses for minorities. This is well known and understood as a tactic for officers to target low income minorities to trump up excuses to search for drugs, etc.. and escalate the stop. BLM has its failings but the overall movement brought millions of people to the streets to push back against police forces that choose to escalate contacts when de-escalation would have been more appropriate.
People who paint BLM as evil choose to turn a blind eye one of the biggest ongoing social injustices that minorities face still in the modern times. The organization certainly has flaws but the movement was just.
But go ahead a follow your shepherd and continue to ignore the voices of millions that spoke out peacefully in the streets about negative policing policies. Doing that willfully does indeed speak loudly about you personally.
Police aren’t targeting “low income minorities” for the sake or targeting them. There are no police in Irving Park and Starmount because there is no open air crime in those neighborhoods. Police are not evenly distributed throughout the city. Sure, there is a cop responsible for responding to calls in Starmount, but do you think he spends his time there or answering calls in the higher crime area down the road?? No, cops are told to go where the crime is, which happens to be in low socio-economic neighborhoods. Those neighborhoods tend to be minority dense. Looks at Greensboro’s crime crescent, which is the entire southeast portion of Greensboro.
Guns, drugs, and other contraband are prolific in those areas, as is most of our violent crime. So yeah, cops try to search cars in those areas, but not to target minorities for the sake of targeting minorities. They are trying to stop young black men from victimizing other young black men, and maybe protect some innocent bystanders while they are at it.
Chris, you need to go do a ride along before casting aspersions at an entire group of people. I would think someone as “enlightened” as yourself would be less bigoted.
Brilliant riposte, Don! Chris just got a reality check.
You are comparing Apples and Oranges and make a fully false argument based on your personal bias. A sparsely populated community such as Irving Park and Starmount versus areas that police do target such as East Greensboro where population is far more densely populated. What a joke.
In addition, police stop drivers of color for minor offenses more often than they do white drivers. Then trump of reasons to search the car, search the person, and check for warrants on passengers, and generally harass drivers of color. Every hear the phrase ‘being stopped for Driving While Black’? This is well documented and studied policing tactic that republicans like to explain away with misrepresented arguments such as yours.
Take the time to ask a few of your male friends of color and have a conversation with them about how they have teach their kids to be ready for this type of harassment. I have been amazed at the stories from some of their stories. And these are highly successful professionals in our community. Not low income or people you would think would be targeted.
It’s not apples to oranges. It is how policing in the modern age works. Cops are told to go where the crime is. If low income areas don’t want cops in their neighborhood, then they need to stop tolerating crime in their neighborhood. Starmount doesn’t tolerate so much as a napkin being dropped on the sidewalk, hence no open air crime, hence no cops roving the neighborhood. It has nothing to do with cops being racist and everything to do with actual crime, fear of crime, economic status, willingness to activate the police, and a neighborhood’s tolerance of what goes on in that neighborhood. (Yes, there are bad apple cops just like in every other job in the world. Doctors malpractice, lawyers lie, teachers push political messages, priests rip off congregations and molest kids. The list goes on, but those are all the outliers in each occupation, not the norm. The same is true of policing.)
Ask my friends of color… please. By the way, what’s my skin color Chris? Oh, that’s right, you don’t know and it’s probably not what you’re assuming. Talk about biases, look in a mirror, bro. Or just keep screaming at the sky that all cops are bad. Really helpful for our 15 and counting murder victims this year.
——-
Chris never fails to smear people with character assassination based on mere innuendo.
He is an unusually unpleasant, bitter little man (as you can see).
I speak truth. I know that is hard for the modern republicans to hear truth or have their lies points out for they are, as they have gotten so used to the lies of Trump and his supporters. But of course you support Will. You are a part of the herd of sheep following the same shepherd.
Since you, of course, didn’t address anything in my comment….what violence in 2022 is directly caused by BLM or Antifa? Note that Will contends that their rage of violence is so wide spread that it has lifted the national average so don’t just toss out an isolated incident.
Oh right. You don’t care about facts. Your emotions lead your thinking and that’s all that matters. Nutters gotta nut.
Are you denying that there has been a huge surge in crime since the BLM/AntiFa riots of 2020?
Are you denying that criminals have become emboldened since there were no repercussions for the NLM/AntiFa criminality, which even included the storming and occupation of a police station?
All this is a big green light for criminals everywhere, aided and abetted by Leftist DAs who release violent criminals within hours of their arrest.
Will is right. You are not.
And please… try to contain your nasty habit of smearing others as bigots, sheep, racists, whatever. It only serves to display your odious personality.
Cause and effect. No crime spike is not the result of riots from 2020. It is the crappy economy that most correlates to the spike in crime. But as a bigot you make it about something that has been relevant in over 2 years.
I smear those that want to stain the democracy and progress of our great country. That includes you at the top of the list.
You once before suggested that I was a bigot (of the racist variety). You were forced to publicly apologize to me.
Remember?
You need to be more careful with your insults Chrissy. But it does let us all see what a nasty little man you are.
Sure I apologized once (not forced), I mistakenly attributed a comment from Will to you by mistake. So apologized because I am comfortable when I make a mistake. You have sense make several bigoted comments such as gas being perverts, etc…. So yup. You have all the trademarks of a bigot with even a touch of racism I suspect.
Hey Chris it looks more and more that your the racist pig on this farm.
Thanks for publishing this excellently written and conceived letter to the editor. These are serious facts that need to be well considered before voting. McCrory has sold out and wants to win too much.
The economy your elected democrat president has created. So is Joe Biden, one of the authors of the 1994 crime bill that has put black people in prison for crack related crimes, the real issue with the economy? Which due to your reasoning has caused crime increases?
Way to go Chris. You performed just as a liberal democrat (lower case intended) would. Accuse the other party of exactly what you are guilty of right from their play book. While you are at it, admit nothing and deny everything. Enjoy life.
Only a bigot would think support of diversity is racist. Most bigots ove to call democrats racist for supporting the idea that inequality remains an issue for minority communities.
The idea of reverse racism is for the ignorant fools that act as the sheep of the alt right movement.
“The idea of reverse racism is for the ignorant…” So Chris believes that racism against non-whites is despicable and abhorrent, but racism against whites is beneficial and commendable.
He is clearly a hypocrite. And a Leftist (Doublethink).
While it does exist, black on white racism is very rare and typically over very small venues of power. Like the little town of 700 that has been in headlines here on the Rhino. OH NO, POWER OF A TOWN OF 700!? (Read with sarcasm) That clear undoes 100s of years of slavery, Jim Crow laws, and continued civil rights injustices that exist today.
But you be you.
Black racism is ubiquitous, particularly towards Asians, Jews, and white people generally.
It’s normally ignored by the media, but even they can’t hide it all. Blacks currently assaulting Asians is reminiscent of the “Polar Bear Game” when they viciously punched out whites without any warning.
Vitriolic racism is as much a black phenomenon as a white one. Just listen to Louis Farrakhan Or Obama’s pastor, Rev. Wright.
Thank you Will!
I actually was interested in seeing what McCrory had to offer until he started his dirty political ads. He has turned me off and made me ashamed to say I once voted for him.
Let’s not forget that this is not a two horse race, nor is it an opportunity to show your full hand, or is it?
You’re absolutely right, Will. I read somewhere the other day that the Feds have increased the US money supply (M3) by 40% since February 2020. Forty per cent. But then they claim everything is “Putin’s price hike”. They must think we’re all thick.
And I too believe that the hard Left – which is obviously in control of this administration’s policy – is indeed deliberately trying to take America down.
And regarding Pat McCrory, he’s clearly a closet statist. We don’t need a Carolina Mitt Romney. As you say, who needs Democrats when we have Republicans like him?
And someone is even running shameless ads against Mark Walker. I have suspicions. What do y’all think
As far as I know, both Budd and Walker are solid Christian Conservatives who stand up for what’s right and what’s best for Americans.
Biden’s 3 million border invaders, his money printing to fund unsubstantiated war, and McCrory’s dishonest adds are the elephants in the room. Thanks Dr. Ferrell for your excellently written and obviously researched letter. You have a lot of true believer supporters of your thoughts to counter the one dissenter. Way to go.
I’m glad to see an excellently written and researched letter to the editor that addresses money printing devaluation of our dollar, costly illegal invasion of our borders, crime, and campaign slander.
Chris, choose just one of these topics and tell us how we are better off not addressing these issues but rather slandering Budd?
Thanks Dr. Ferrell for writing.
With all these commenters spouting all this conservative pablum, I’m so happy that when we moved back to the area from Charlotte we found property in Caswell Co.; and NOT in Guilford. Dodged THAT bullet !! P.S. – @Archie Craver: Your quote (Accuse the other party of exactly what you are guilty of right from their play book.) That’s hilarious!! It’s a commonly recognized ‘dog whistle’ move to paint lib’ruls as “pedophiles, child molesters”, et.al; but the last 2 ACTUAL news items I’ve seen related to politicians caught with their pants down around children, as it were, were stories about REPUBLICAN lawmakers. Projection is right…..smdh
We’re glad you’re not in Guilford county too.
