Cooper criminals need “health care, not handcuffs.” | Eastern NC Now

Exclusive audio obtained by Breitbart News

ENCNow

Exclusive audio obtained by Breitbart News features North Carolina Democrat Senate candidate Roy Cooper telling supporters at a campaign event that criminals need “health care, not handcuffs.” Cooper has been under intense scrutiny in his campaign for Senate for his atrocious soft-on-crime record, from agreeing to the largest mass prison release in state history to his 2020 executive order that resulted in a manifesto and the implementation of cashless bail and other woke policies.

No about Iran; that is why they have gone to the streets to protest and many have died trying to deserve a modicum of freedom.

Yes, I would name name myself and Hood for being good, decent, honest, and very competent politicians, but we can NOT do it all by ourselves; nor can those other good politicians in local government, and don't you and others in the electorate ever stop to ask yourselves why we, and others have had so little help over the years in limiting the scope of government, and ending corruption.

Obviously, they like that form of government, or they would stop electing those politician who, conversely, are not good, decent, honest, and very competent politicians.

This is not only a problem on Beaufort County's Board of County Commissioners, but a problem with every governing body in Beaufort County ... So tell me where I am wrong to well understand that the electorate is responsible for their government.

Hey Stan, Did the people in Iran get the Govt they deserve?
Or maybe we could ask the same about the UK.

That of yours is statement is a cop-out...spin.

My guess is if I asked you to name one "good" politician, you would name yourself and Hood. Name one other that is here to listen, help, serve, and ANSWER to The People who ask. All I see is a circling of the wagons, excuses and a lot of playing dumb.
Local Govt is broken and it stays broken because no one with the power to make changes, changes that the ppl need, are willing to stick their necks out for it.
I would like to see some real fight, such as a "Give Me Liberty or Give me death attitude among our politicians.

Washingtonian: I have and will continue to do everything I can locally to make government more effective; even getting rid of Limited Voting, which is currently constitutional; however, I am just one Conservative always in search of 3 more ...

But Washingtonian, blaming all good elected leaders, along with the bad, will always help to promote an ignorant electorate, and we just cannot afford that in this Representative Republic, not in these desperate times, because ultimately: The People always get the government they deserve in this Constitutional Republic. It is that simple.

Socialism wouldnt hav a chance if th current govt was adequate, competent, unbiased, serving th pple as claimed,& not corrupt to th core.

If u want to stop socialism u must wrk to reform all levels of our inadequate system, beginning w lazy politicians, to th self serving bureaucrats.

I think if Trump was th CityManager, th 1st thing he would do, is fire most of th DeptHeads. Ya know those pple that our govt anonymously refer to as "THE STAFF." That sure is an all-powerful title.

Yeah Stan, blame voters for our bad govt. Forgetting that th system is broken & rigged against voters. Politicians should tak responsibility for th broken system. We find ourselves voting for th lessor Evils.

Our govt has allowed so much chaos w/in th system that currently, the SCOTUS is overloaded w appeals in their emergency docket. U watch...our Fed govt's only resource will b to control th humans...not th broken govts.

OMG! Can u spell incestual govt? FireChief Flowers was made
interim Police Chief.

Some of our readers have expressed that 'all politicians are unclean or unqualified,' which I have naturally objected against; however, I will conclusively admit that former NC State AG (two terms), NC Governor Roy Cooper has abjectly proved to be both - unclean or unqualified.

Ole Coop's atrocious handling of Covid against all data to the contrary was one simple sign to know this truth. Roy Cooper will be far more pathetic than RINO Richard Burr and his companion of ideals Thom.

The one significant thing that Whatley has going for him is that he will listen to the wisdom of Mr. Trump, and should prove not to be a free thinking idiot like Burr and Tillis were.

Friend-of-criminals Roy Cooper showed his preference for criminals over victims in lots of ways. One was his veto of bills to shut down sanctuary counties that protected illegal aliens who had committed crimes in North Carolina. Roy Cooper would rather have criminal illegal aliens remain here in North Carolina where they can commit more crimes against citizens than have them deported back to their home countries as our immigration laws call to happen to such illegal aliens who commit crimes here.

Even as attorney general, Cooper screwed up the SBI crime labs processing of rape kits so that many rape cases could not be hully prosecuted.

Roy Cooper was a budding socialist before socialism was cool. North Carolina does not need that wanker in the Senate. I wish we had a stronger candidate for the GOP, but Michael Whatley will have to do. He is the only game in town now to stop Comrade Cooper.
