Mark Keith Robinson (R) was elected in 2020 to the office of Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina. Mark is a Republican and is the first African American to hold the office.
This speech, which kicked off his political career, was given at a meeting of the Greensboro (NC) City Council, where council members were publicly debating canceling a local gun show in the wake of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.
From Mark Robinson's speech:
The law-abiding citizens of this community and many communities around this country, we're the first one taxed and the last ones considered and the first ones punished when things like this happens, because our rights are the ones being taken away.
I don't think I've ever heard it said more succinctly.

I think Joe Biden has that on his "goals for Presidency" list- or on a t-shirt, he doesn't remember.
We all need to let our voices be heard....
Well there just comes a point where you can't argue anymore. They won't listen. The people should just start ignoring the govt and if they insist on getting stupid about it... welp, hate to say it... but maybe it's time to shoot a few. That's usually what happens when gov'ts ignore their people and attack them....
Kudos to him for stepping up and upsetting the applecart! May he continue to succeed!!!
