Yesterday: NC Governor Josh Stein flies to Charlotte, stands on a stage, swears in the city’s first female police chief, delivers a feel-good speech about “breaking barriers” and “history”…

…then hops back on his plane and flies home without saying ONE WORD about the violent crime explosion that same city is drowning in.

Hours later — literally HOURS later — another person is stabbed on the Lynx Blue Line. Second stabbing on that line this year.

That’s the real Charlotte right now, Governor.

While you were busy smiling for the cameras and collecting your “progressive cred” points, riders were bleeding on a train platform because nobody in leadership has the guts to admit the policies you and your party have pushed for years are failing spectacularly.

You had the microphone in your hand today. 
You looked right at the new chief, right at the cameras, right at the people of Charlotte… and you said nothing about the elephant in the room.

No mention of the skyrocketing murder rate. 
No mention of the transit crime nightmare. 
No mention of the fact that people are afraid to ride the light rail in broad daylight.

You don’t get to parachute in, claim credit for a “historic moment,” and then ghost when it’s time to talk about the bodies piling up.

Charlotte deserved better than a photo-op and a pat on the back today, Governor Stein. 
We deserved a leader who actually gives a darn.

84 years ago today, 2,403 Americans woke up on a bright and shiny Sunday morning, went to church and work only to be senselessly attacked by a foreign adversary and the country was dragged into a 2nd Great War in 3 decades.

Today we remember their sacrifice, to honor those who never made it home, and for those who fought like hell in the weeks and months after to make sure our country would prevail.
