Marky Mark is a Funky Chump
As we near the gubernatorial election in November, I think it bears importance to highlight some of the candidates' positions. For the first entry, I’m going to be looking at Lt. Governor Mark Robinson.
Robinson recently unveiled part of his "public safety" plan at a news conference in Statesville. Robinson claims to stand behind law enforcement and law and order in the state, but my question is what is his opinion on the unconstitutional arrest of Joshua Rohrer and the brutal assault of his VA service dog Sunshine? I'm guessing that he would see it as police "taking care of business" and "handling the dregs of society," based on statements he’s made previously showing his unquestioning support for law enforcement.
Also, let's take a look at another statement he made at the Statesville conference, claiming he would “reinstate the death penalty for those that kill police and corrections officers. Firstly, the death penalty wasn’t banned in NC, it was simply placed on a moratorium due to legal challenges. Secondly, the fact that an African-American man has the audacity to advocate for the death penalty when so many African-Americans were unjustly and unconstitutionally executed by the government in the years prior is mind boggling, and should clearly tell you that Mark Robinson isn’t standing up for the civil rights of anyone except the elite who he rubs shoulders with.
For my final point, let’s look at his statement to work with the General Assembly to enact a measure to require law enforcement to hold jail inmates thought to be in the country illegally and cooperate with federal immigration authorities. Let me make this plain and clear. The current system of holding aliens suspected of entering unlawfully for indeterminate periods of time is a violation of the due process of law guaranteed by the US Constitution, and extended to aliens, including illegal ones, by the Supreme Court. Any cooperation by state and local authorities should be viewed as a direct violation of their oaths to protect and defend the constitution of the United States, and North Carolina.
In summary, while Mark Robinson hides his sadistic, authoritarian opinions behind a mask of "law and order" and models himself as "one of the people" it is clear to those who read between the lines that he is no better than Cooper, or Stein, or Harris, or Trump, and is just another power-hungry elite frothing at the mouth to crush the people of this great state beneath the boot of D.C. and Raleigh. I urge every North Carolina to vote for the only candidate that will push back against the tyrants in Raleigh and D.C.: Mike Ross!
