Where Is NC Senate Candidate Roy Cooper? – RedState
Although the murder of Iryna Zarutska occurred on August 22, it took national media for two weeks to finally highlight it and the recently published video of crime in their coverage, clinging predictablely on “republicans jump and grasp” the story “rather than treating public concerns on the receiving crimes with the gravity they deserve.
The so-called Democratic leaders of North Carolina also weighed in about 17 days after the crime began to receive national attention, Governor Josh Stein (D) proclaiming that these problems will be resolved once we have more officers on the street.
As we pointed out, however, left out was that when he was the attorney general of NC, he was part of the infamous work group for racial equity and criminal justice that the government at the time. Roy Cooper (D) – Who is now a candidate in the American Senate – created in 2020 at the start of the riots of George Floyd. The recommendations implemented by this working group have included an emphasis on “solutions” such as prior release programs and the deactivation and decriminalization of homelessness.

And speaking of Cooper, where is it?
At the end of July, he applied to the head of the American Senate, ridiculously claiming that he was never his intention (as a career politician almost 40 years old) to serve Washington, DC, but that he felt called to do so because the middle class should have saved himself.
Three weeks later, Zarutska, a Ukrainian refugee, was stabbed to death on the Charlotte tram when she left her job in a pizzeria, allegedly by a suspect who has violent criminal and mental health history. However, we have literally heard anything from Cooper himself outside the relationships of the injured feelings and the lies of his managers against the candidate of the GOP Senate Michael Whatley who shines hard spots on his atrocious record on the issues related to the crime:
Kate Smart, spokesperson for Cooper’s campaign, described the attack “an act of unwilling and contemptible” and accused Whatley of “lying again because he knows his support for federal policies that have reduced local funding and the application of state states for North Carolina” in a statement.
Well, Roy Cooper officially responded to the murder of Iryna Zarutska …

AWW, bless their hearts. I guess the truth hurts, isn’t it?
I mean, we now have the Trump administration, which brings its weight on Charlotte in the middle of the broader crime repression program of President Trump in other cities, including DC, and yet Cooper was MIA on this subject, the biggest problem to emerge for North Carolina since he declared his intentions to present himself in the Senate.
Governor Stein and Ag Jackson both made statements on cat murder. @RoCopernerc Did not comment at all and the last post of his account took place on September 7.

I would not be surprised to see the NRSC making a campaign announcement featuring Cooper’s face on the side of a milk card, because this is how from sight, out of mind, it was on this question.
Is it in the bunker in the hope that this problem will end up exploding? By hiding because he knows that what is what’s claims on his case?
Be that as it may, Cooper’s response – or his shameful absence in this case – is a good indicator of what he would do if he would do if he was elected to the Senate at the first sign of North Carolina needed a solid leadership in Congress on a question that has an impact directly on NC residents: Tuck Tail and Run.
