After several months of making threats to move the 2017 All Star game out of Charlotte if lawmakers didn’t repeal HB 2, the NBA has finally decided to actually do it.

The statement alluded to the reported meetings being held in secret between lawmakers and the NBA officials.

“Since March, when North Carolina enacted HB2 and the issue of legal protections for the LGBT community in Charlotte became prominent, the NBA and the Charlotte Hornets have been working diligently to foster constructive dialogue and try to effect positive change.”

The NBA apparently has ignored the fact that the right to sue for discrimination in court has been restored, which was allegedly one of their earlier main complaints. Read the full NBA statement.

Majority of Businesses Signing on to #HB2 Amicus Brief are from Outside NC

Much like the origin of the petitions dramatically delivered to the Governor’s office for maximum media impact, the majority of these businesses seem to be located in California.

While many of the 68 have done business in the state and continue to do so, only about a dozen seem to have a presence and/or facility residing in the state of North Carolina.

That dozen includes Biogen Inc., Cisco Systems Inc, Cummins Inc, IBM Corporation, Ikea, Marriot, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams, PayPal, RBC Capital Markets, Red Hat and United Airlines. Continue reading

The Wages of #HB2 Appeasement

Apparently, the NBA is an official elected body in the state of North Carolina. Or at least that is how they are being treated by ‘NCGA leadership’ and Governor McCrory who have been in ‘private’ and closed door discussions with the NBA over changes to HB2.

Now we learn a second draft with additional changes to HB2 in in play that includes a ‘ blue ribbon commission’.

You cannot appease anyone or anything whose primary goal is your complete destruction. Continue reading
