Specifically I'm talking about Romney supporters yelling at David Axelrod at a press conference so loud that he couldn't really be heard with a mic and then in response to it Romney said that they did good by doing that.
Well…I think it’s pretty ignorant for anyone to behave that way, whether they’re in support of Romney or Obama. When people threw glitter at Santorum, I rolled my eyes because it was completely defeating the purpose. You’re not going to change someone’s mind by attacking them and it makes you look like a bully.

this isn't really about amendment one or the issues of gay rights, but what do you think about the lack of respect that is being shown in this years presidential race, especially lately?
Hmm…to me it seems pretty typical of any presidential election (sadly). What specifically are you talking about?

What about us in the middle of Eastern NC? Not South. Not North.. just kinda in the middle...
I’m not sure what the question is. It’d be easier to answer your questions if you came off anonymous and I could respond privately.

hey do you know anything about a protest/rally at the capitol on June 23rd? I was at the protest in Newton and there was guy there talking about it and I haven't been able to find anything else out about it.
I heard about an Occupy protest in Raleigh around that time but that’s all the information I have on it.
If anyone has any information on an upcoming protest/rally, please share it. Thanks!

Yes, I am. Born and raised :)
Maybe people will stop saying that they’re disappointed in North Carolina when they see these. See, there are tons of people in North Carolina that are fighting against hate!
Here are some more photos from today’s protest in Newton, North Carolina!
If you have some that you want me to post or a story that you want to share about the protest, drop it in my ask!
Here’s a sneak peak of some of the awesome pictures from today’s protest in Newton, NC against Pastor Charles Worley’s hateful anti gay sermon.
According to the Sheriffs Dept, there were around 1300-1600 people there and about 50 counter protesters. Here’s a picture of an anti gay protester and please notice the awesome handmade sign to the left (it says “I’m With Stupid”).
Picture belongs to Christy. Thanks!
I’m seeing a lot of great pictures of the NC protest on Twitter right now!
