In Raleigh this weekend, a beloved Wake County science teacher was killed while pleading for help on a 911 call, allegedly attacked by a career criminal with two dozen prior arrests and a history of violent behavior. Relatives say the suspect had been stalking families for years — warnings that weren’t acted on effectively.
This isn’t isolated. It’s part of a growing pattern of dangerous consequences when public safety takes a back seat to political correctness.
And then there was the foiled ISIS‑inspired terror plot in Mint Hill, just outside Charlotte. Federal agents arrested an 18‑year‑old who allegedly pledged allegiance to the Islamic State, stockpiled weapons, and planned a New Year’s Eve knife and hammer attack at a grocery store and restaurant — aiming for up to 20 victims.
Thankfully, that plot was stopped — but it was happening here in North Carolina.
And yet, in Raleigh and Charlotte, some lawmakers are still debating whether cooperation with federal authorities is a “problem.” They argue that detainers and ICE coordination hurt “community trust.” But when threats involve terrorists and violent repeat offenders, community trust isn’t the issue — safety is.
Meanwhile, left‑leaning prosecutors and judges keep setting dangerous criminals free on technicalities. And our political leaders? Too often, they bicker about abstract ideals instead of facing the real world consequences.
This isn’t about fear‑mongering. It’s about facts.
Lives are being lost. Communities are being terrorized. And the political class is still debating terminology.
North Carolinians deserve leadership that actually protects them — not excuses for why crime keeps rising.
Fix it. Or expect more headlines like these.
