    In the event that Gov Ops searches a person’s home, these rules mean that the person 1) must keep the entry a secret, 2) cannot seek outside help (unless necessary for fulfilling the request, the law says), and 3) could face criminal charges if Gov Ops deems them uncooperative.

    This is a blatant violation of multiple constitutional rights. No wonder they want it kept secret, they’re building the Gestapo. They’re dismantling American liberty in favor of over fascism.

          The next time you need justice, I hope someone says something better to you than “too late, you’re just one person”.

            It’s too late because it’s hundreds of years and MILLIONS of deaths late, you numpty dumbass. There are far, FAR more people than the natives, now. Do you like white-knighting for lost causes? Good for you, idiot.

            How about you stop pretending to care about the wellbeing of others if you’re going to ignore the struggle of most in favor of tokens?

              It’s not just hundreds of years. Those people are still there today. It’s never too late to do the right thing. In fact, Canada has returned some stolen land lately so please don’t tell me that it’s too difficult when you haven’t even tried.

              By the way, on second reading of your reply you sound like an absolute maniac. Are there any other minorities you’d like to see deprived of justice and funding? Wheelchair users maybe? The deaf or blind? Check yourself.

                We’re talking about a general issue affecting hundreds of millions. My point is NOT that natives have no valid gripes. It’s that you are ignoring a HUGE current issue to whine about an issue where it is TOO LATE to have any similar kind of impact.

                You are the dumbass whining about how the A/C hasn’t worked for years in a car while the engine is about to explode.

                  It’s never too late to do what is right and to make amends for wrongs committed no matter how long ago it happened. Your actions affect people for the rest of their lives, often changing them permanently, and this is why we must aspire to be kinder to each other and to emphasize with one another.

                  Especially in terms of genocide and other crimes committed against whole cultures. Those types of crimes not only affect the direct victims, but their descendants, whose potential, prospects and lives were permanently changed for the worse before they were even born. What the Native Americans suffered is so horrendous it is hard to even describe. And it is all a part of the United States’s long history of racism, fascism, slavery and hatred.

                  To argue it’s irrelevant is not only pretty obnoxious but incorrect.

                  It’s Krazy to be this much of a dick to an indigenous person. I bet you want black people to stop whining about slavery and reparations too.

      Because, as I’m sure we all know by now, ‘small government’ means ‘only a small number of people allowed to participate (and they can only be rich white ‘Christian’ men)’.

    A third provision will allow legislators to “determine…whether a record is a public record.” Legislators can now decide to “retain, destroy, sell, loan, or otherwise dispose of’’ their documents.

    Sell?? Oh come on they aren’t even trying to pretend

    GOP says they hate big government. Also creates bigger and more powerful government police agencies.

    If you work at any public university in North Carolina, start working on an exit plan. Though the wording of “indirect” public funds is so broad there’s not much this wouldn’t extend to in some way.
