An 82 year old woman was found “killed” (about the only substantive hint) in her town home about half a mile from where I live. She lived right across the street from the Carmel Country Club. As the story indicates, this type of thing just doesn’t happen in this part of Charlotte.<\/p>\n
In my random encounters with people here, very few have roots here, and many are very recent arrivals. I haven’t yet concluded whether this is people fleeing the North for a better life or a coordinated effort to convert Charlotte into the next Detroit. Senseless killings of old defenseless white people is where it starts. Then the exodus. <\/p>\n
Pat McCrory (now Governor) was the mayor from 1995 until 2009, when he resigned to run for governor and failed (in 2009)<\/p>\n
Anthony Foxx was his replacement – he left to be Secretary of Transportation in the Obama administration. The current mayor who has been there for two months is another black male Democrat. Patrick Cannon had been on the City Council. He is a graduate of NC A&T, a racially segregated university in Greensboro – students from there are remembered for staging the sitin at the lunch counter at Woolworth’s in Greensboro.<\/p>\n
Rodney Monroe was named Chief of Police in 2008. He has a BA degree in police science from the University of Phoenix, which isn’t in Arizona. His “real” degree in “interdisciplinary studies” from Virginia Comminwealth University. In 2008, VCU realized they had given him the degree in error, but decided not to expose the university to more scrutiny. He only had 6 credit hours of work at VCU. My nephew from Seattle has assuaged his racial guilt by getting Mayor Cannon elected because of the color of his skin. Everything is under control.<\/p>\n
