U.S. media outlet Gateway Pundit reported on February 4 that Republican Mark Robinson, North Carolina’s first black lieutenant governor, may be remembered as the man who, when he wasn’t elected, took the stage at a town board meeting to defend law-abiding gun owners and said, “I am the majority! “
On the second day of Black History Month, February 2, a North Carolina news channel ran a cartoon depicting Robinson and other Republicans as members of the Ku Klux Klan, which was met with a barrage of criticism from the North Carolina lieutenant governor. Click on the video below and you’ll see Robinson’s brilliant comeback.
The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) refers to a civic group that has practiced white supremacist movements and Christian terrorism in three different periods of American history and modern times.
A cartoon posted online by WRAL-TV shows an elephant symbolizing the Republican Party wearing a Klan robe emblazoned with the words “Member of the State Board of Education Republican Party.
In North Carolina, the lieutenant governor’s duties include presiding over the state Senate and establishing several state boards and commissions, including the Education and Energy Commissions, which are the responsibility of the lieutenant governor. The cartoon is meant to be a satire of Robinson’s disagreement with pursuing the agenda the left wants to push in schools.
WRAL-TV is an NBC affiliate and the flagship media outlet of North Carolina’s local Capitol Broadcasting Company (Inc.).
The first-ever black lieutenant governor, Robinson said at a news conference Tuesday, “Fellow citizens, this is something we cannot allow. “
Robinson added, “On the second day of Black History Month, North Carolina’s first black lieutenant governor is being portrayed as a racist.” “A black man is portrayed as a white KKK man just because he is a Republican. These people are hypocritically brain dead, folks.”
Robinson also named “WRAL-TV” at the press conference, asking if they wanted to use the cartoon to represent themselves. Robinson reminded the public that the KKK has nothing to do with the Republican Party, but rather with the Democratic Party, and that what these people learned in history class was returned to their teachers.
On November 10, 2020, North Carolina’s Navy Lieutenant Mark Robinson was announced as North Carolina’s first black lieutenant governor. 52-year-old Robinson is a political newcomer and an active gun rights activist. North Carolina’s governor is Roy Cooper, a Democrat.
