Shocker: Occupy Monday Promoting Fast Food Strike

Posted on September 4, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

Moral Monday is promoting a Fast Food Worker strike over the minimum wage today at noon? Gee, they’ve never done that before. Oh wait, yes they have:

Hey, didn’t Kay Hagan repeat a lot of this business about $7.25 an hour last night at the debate? Why yes… Yes she did. Moral Monday Kay has a nice ring to it.

Ruling Against Opportunity Scholarships For Low Income Kids To Be Appealed

Posted on August 22, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

Yesterday, Judge Hobgood ruled against Opportunity Scholarships for low-income and at risk kids. Today, we find that NC Attorney General Roy Cooper will appeal the decision.

N.C. Attorney General Roy Cooper, a Democrat who has raised concerns about parts of the Republican legislative agenda, quickly announced plans for his office to appeal, according to Noelle Talley, his spokeswoman.

“Our attorneys believe that this is a constitutional issue that must be decided by the appellate courts,” Talley said in a statement shortly after the ruling. – News and Observer

Wait…For once in recent memory, Cooper is actually doing his job? So, what gives? Either he clearly sees this Judge is correct in his ruling or Cooper thinks this is a way to extend the BlueprintNC style slamming of Republicans on Education. Probably the latter if you that a closer look at the pushback. I’ve said this multiple times before, this is about protectionism of a system and not concern for these kids.

“Week of Action”: Laugh or Cry?

Posted on August 16, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

Laugh or cry?
“It’s about right or wrong”. No, it’s about demanding more big government intrusion, incurring more debt and definitely not about anything moral. Continue reading →

Occupy Monday Arrestees Leave Court Bill In Laps Of Taxpayers

Posted on August 14, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

Occupy Monday’s “Civil Disobedience” is a joke on NC taxpayers. This week, a Judge dismissed trespassing charges for 5 of the occupiers. Who bears the police and court costs? The taxpayer.

Apparently, law enforcement will have to tell each and every person who protests they need to disperse. Bear in mind, these protesters volunteered to be arrested.

NC Budget Deal, Occupy Monday and Hagan

Posted on July 30, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

Well, if you haven’t read Pete Kaliner’s write up about the NC General Assembly’s budget deal, you should. He nailed it.

Nailed it. #ncpol #ncga MT @PeteKaliner: #NCGA budget deal – Moral Mondayers hardest hit http://t.co/sMLGIwJd7M

Much of Occupy Monday’s complaints have been based on driving a select few narratives. One of the big ones, teacher pay, was just busted. Wonder how this will impact former Kay Hagan staffer Chris Sgro’s activism with very Left leaning Equality North Carolina and in his support of Occupy Monday?

Shocker, former Hagan staffer is all about Far Left Moral Monday. http://t.co/szfp3A4WI4 #ncsen @ThomTillis — LL1885 – A.P. Dillon (@LadyLiberty1885) July 30, 2014
Reminder: “Due to the political nature of our work, contributions to Equality NC are not tax-deductible.”

Flashback – it’s like Equality NC knew before Cooper did he wouldn’t defend North Carolina’s marriage amendment: Continue reading →
