She's had reactions from the mRNA poison! Myocarditis is one of the main symptoms that killed one of my close family members. If people can't see yet the harms that this mRNA poison has done to humanity, then I don't really know what else will. OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE!!! GOD says in Hosea 4:6 my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge!

Over the past several years, as national director of Patriot Coalition, our general counsel Richard D. Fry and/or I have researched this issue in great detail, and debated a wide range of their "experts" across the country, many of which are available in our Article V channel (45 videos) at YouTube here:

www.youtube.com

Besides the numerous debates, I highly recommend the second video, which is one I filmed of my friend Publius in Virginia last year. I also recommend the videos with Dr. Edwin Vieira discussing an Article V Convention and COS architect Michael Farris' dangerous Parental Rights Amendment, which totally pits parental rights against government indoctrination.

Thomas Jefferson said the price of liberty is "eternal vigilance." Had it been simply defeated, the sponsors would simply reintroduce it again in the next general assembly.

That despite the shady behavior of the leadership, giving the public no notice on an issue of such great importance, and then muzzling opposition at the drive-by, pencil-whip hearing they held, the Republican leadership continues to extort votes. If only they would uphold their oaths.

We all know what happens when members don't tow-the-line by supporting what the leadership wants: their bills don't get hearings or votes in other areas. This is how the dishonorable game is played. Everyone knows it. EVERYONE.

Now, if they will play these shenanigans just to get the Article V application resolution passed, what will they do to get the amendments passed over the course of 2-3 election cycles?

Already, in neighboring states like Virginia, well-funded political PAC's are letting it be known that opponents such as Delegate Marshall and Senator Black, the two "statesmen" in Virginia blocking this insanity won't see any more donations to their campaigns, and in some cases, the establishment is funding primary opponents to run these statesmen out of the legislature in Richmond.

In North Carolina, our own Republican Lt. Governor has been trying to fast-track this process for years. Publius is right. The enemy isn't just at the gate, he's running around loose in the N.C. General Assembly with mad-con-cow.

That Republican leadership in North Carolina are driving this reckless attempt to trigger a convention and playing games with the rules and public instead of using its constitutional authority to interpose, tells me we need new leadership, and perhaps to replace most of the "scoundrels and scalawags" (N.C. Governor Zebulon Baird Vance's words) who refuse to take no for an answer. I'm certain that is what I will tell any of them that ask for my help or my money for their next campaign.

The Constitution isn't the problem. COS admits that. Why is amending it the solution, then? It isn't. I don't trust them because they don't keep their oath now. I won't trust them to be honorable at a convention or in the ratification process.

Hmm... Listening to Mr. Warren's queries about the EDC's per job costs sounded like the "shovel-ready" boondoggle of the Obama Administration's "Stimulus Bills."

Perhaps Commissioner Klemm should have simply said what Obama said: "I guess they weren't as shovel-ready as I thought." The free market doesn't need a taxpayer-funded economic development commission. Only crony-capitalists profit and the taxpayers lose...every time.

If you have to bribe businesses to move into your area, you might consider the real reasons they want tax-breaks and special deals. Are your K-12, trade and technical schools producing qualified educated workers? Is the infrastructure sufficient to allow reasonable ingress and egress of all the various stakeholders, (employees, clients, customers, etc...)

Is the tax base appealing to prospective business investors? Provide a climate that is conducive to new or expanding business ventures and "they will come." Beaufort County is a beautiful place with wonderful people, a proud history that goes back hundreds of years, and sunsets that are only a postcard-dream to folks across the country.

Without proper oversight by the commissioners, the Economic Development Commission may as well be the Warren Commission, looking for a magic bullet to explain the unexplainable.

I agree with John 100% on who, what, where, when on stun gun usage & good alternative to firearms for LE. I have one in my vehicle and its there in case of an up-close encounter such as attempted entry/carjacking scenario. But as John also pointed out, they would not be my choice for a home invasion robbery or any other threat where distance is desired. If someone breaks into my home while I'm in it, the shotgun is the first on my list when the alarm goes off.

Civility is big with me. Bigger than many other differences.

Politics is only nasty when nasty people are involved.

And for the record, I oppose Agenda 21 and any efforts by anyone anywhere at the sacrifice of our individual sovereignty and the honest social contract we make with specific levels of our federalized government.

Mr Cayton, et al,

Challenging a principle or an action on its merits should always be within the realm of fair play.

But placing blame for a firing circle when my candidacy and my person has been under attack since day three (many, many unfounded attacks, some withdrawn from the internet and some not. At one point 50% of my opponents website was dedicated to me, including a whole page because I was "whining" about her attacking me after we agreed to run a clean race) and then suddenly when my campaign responds, there is a response from you?

Where were you two months ago? You certainly weren't chastising your candidate for her personal negative (and mostly false) attacks.

You also seem to notice when one candidate was picked by a faction in Raleigh, but not your own candidate by another faction in Raleigh despite that she admitted that she was selected on tape in your forum.

You want to put forth a legislative candidate who's best trick is just attacking and sidelining other members of the party?

When Pat McCrory wins, when I win, when half a dozen other Republican candidates win that have been polarized by her campaign (and her choosing folks who she herself called RINOs only a year ago over other local candidates)... how is she going to come back from that? She cannot then support me, or Pat McCrory, or any of the half dozen others she has been sidelining because she has been tearing us down during the primary?

Before we started this race we agreed that we would run our own clean races and then whoever would win, would then support the other in the general elections. Be honest. That cannot happen any longer after months of attacks.

By all means, please criticize the application of conservative principles. Everyone certainly should do that. But this hypocrisy of trying to lay blame on others for this rift has got to stop.

This rift was started by one person and one campaign and it most certainly was not mine or the people who realized towards the end of the primary campaign that I was the strongest Constitutional Conservative candidate and then in turn backed me.

You cannot turn back time unfortunately. Perhaps Raleigh should have made a better "selection".
