From an Outraged Citizen to Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina

One of my favorite writers is Andrea Widburg, who on February 4, 2021 posted this piece: North Carolina's lt. governor shows how to fight back against a corrupt media, with what has to be the video for all time, along with these thoughts. 

Mark Robinson, currently North Carolina's Lieutenant Governor shows how to fight back against a corrupt media Mark Robinson stood up before the city council in Greensboro, North Carolina and gave an impassioned defense of the Second Amendment.

Since he's clearly not playing by the rules laid down by leftists and Republican invertebrates regarding how our children are being indoctrinated with leftist race dogma,  a local media outlet accused him, and the entire state Republican party, as being KKK entities.  He didn't like that at all, and when a local paper published this cartoon:

They were calling the entire North Carolina Republican party a KKK entity, including Robinson.  Well, he didn't like it and went after them with a level of vigor that needs to be tranfused into the entire Republican party.  He "ferociously attacked the newspaper for its dishonesty and ignorance"  He makes it clear, "I'm not going to go along to get along.  I'm going to call them out every time. "That's what every Republican should say when the media goes low"

To quote the author, "this man is no shrinking violet." To see his video taped response to this cartoon and these charged, to the original article as I can't duplicate it here.  

Unlike the MSM I feel it's important to tell the whole story, so, in all fairness, I feel I should note her comments about his anti-Semitic views, but as Andrea notes: 

When it comes to Robinson, as with Majorie Taylor Green's ill informed statements about Jews, it's important to recognize that neither she nor Robinson backs his statements with active malevolence.  Unlike the anti-Semitic Democrats in Congress, neither has shown hostility to the Jewish state (so far as I know), and both support American values.

As Sally Zelikovsky said, the answer is to educate, not destroy, those Republicans who need a new understanding of Jews and Judaism.  The fact is that we have almost no fighters in the Republican Party.  We shouldn't jettison the ones we have because they're flawed.  We should, instead, work with them to make them better.

An even more extensive piece appeared in the Washington Free Beacon quoting Robinson saying:

"The system of government that we have in this nation is not systemically racist; in fact, it is not racist at all," he said. "To say that this is a racist nation—that is not true. And when we write standards that point to that direction in any way, we are doing our students a disservice."

He's not opposed to education discussing the complex racial issues in America but to second graders?  He wisely notes: 

"I don't think that these things that we have included have been for the benefit of the students,"...... "There's no reason why we should be trying to teach second graders about the complex issues of race. Those children have enough on their plate learning how to read, and write, and do mathematics."

The author notes that "Robinson is working to build an opposition to the curriculum, which he characterizes as divisive and anti-American. In a petition—that by Wednesday afternoon had nearly 30,000 signatures—he argued that the courses are designed to "indoctrinate our students against our great country."

In short, he's not against education, he's against propaganda and the indoctrination of leftist views into very young and malleable minds.
