Related: About this forumMcCrory says he mingles with protesters in the streets, not at Moral Mondays
Bullshit update from Pat and his poodle Genardo:
....
Gov. Pat McCrory interacts with many people, including protesters, Genardo said Friday afternoon. Every day he walks to and from work, to meetings in government buildings, and throughout the city of Raleigh. When possible, the governor will stop and chat with the people of North Carolina.
The comments came the day after social media sites lit up with people on the hunt for photos, video or any reports of McCrory mingling with protesters after the governor was quoted as saying he meets with them in the crowd.
Janet Conner-Knox, a Wilson Times reporter, asked the governor Wednesday whether he intended to talk with the Moral Monday protesters that have been coming to the capital routinely since April 29. His response, which she recorded, was, I go out in the crowd all the time. Frankly, yesterday I went out and I talked to several of them, and they were not very respectful. They did not represent the majority of those who call themselves moral by cussing me out, but thats the way things go sometimes.
....
Since the weekly demonstrations began in the capital in late April, McCrory has yet to meet with the crowds or sit down with organizers to discuss their concerns about the policies, laws and agenda coming out of the General Assembly.
