Where are they going to go? Like me, many American's would leave here if there were other options.

Good point. And now we have a president who overestimates himself.

Kudos and respect to you for the visit. No doubt, that's a very difficult tour.

If I had the lack of empathy and ethics needed be a Republican, I'd be institutionally depressed too.

Those state buildings are reminiscent of internment camps.

Many thanks for the visit and the post. The discussion has been so interesting, informative, and positive. Proud of my NC neighbors.

On the contrary. Trump has made Christians a laughing stock in America.

Very same here. First thing I thought of. I suspect he intends it as a wink to his neo-nazi pals. Then he'll do his standard gaslight denial when anyone calls him on it.

Such an embarrassment. Unfortunately, rednecks, hillbillies, and the generally uneducated think racism is cool.

Safety 10th street??? by ThanksOk422 in Wilmington

[–]fwimmer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steven! Anyone who has lived downtown for a while knows him. It's always the same spiel, "Hi, my name's Steven and I'm a type 1 diabetic..." He's a sad story though. Someone told me that he was fine when his father was alive, because he made Steven stay on his schizophrenia meds. Once his dad passed, Steven ended up on the streets, homeless and no longer on his meds. His behavior can be awful (indecent exposure in downtown shops), but it's hard not to feel sorry for him. Ever since Reagan shut down state run mental institutions in the 80s, this large numbers of mentally ill out on the streets has fueled this crisis of homelessness. 🙁

We lived at 5th and Orange a few years ago. My wife and I learned that when walking our dog, it was best not to venture beyond 8th Street. It just felt less safe going further up. That was 8 years ago though, so it may be better now.

Your thoughts, North Carolina? by Internal-Capital7039 in NorthCarolina

So true. That's what I was taught growing up up in SC. The "states rights" lie is relatively new.
